Dogstar is currently on their 2026 North American “All In Now” Tour, promoting their fourth studio album of the same name with indie rock group The Backfires serving as the special guest opening act. The tour launched on August 1 in Austin, Texas, and hitches a path across major venues in the United States and Canada before wrapping up on October 2 in Pioneertown, California.
Dogstar: The Los Angeles-based post-grunge and alternative rock power trio consists of guitarist/vocalist Bret Domrose, drummer Robert Mailhouse, and famously, actor Keanu Reeves on bass and backing vocals. After a 20-year hiatus that ended with a reunion in 2023, the band’s latest era finds them more self-assured and sonically unified than ever. Their performance balances heavy guitar hooks with tight, melodic grooves crafted alongside producer Nick Launay.
The Backfires: Providing direct support on the tour, this rising transatlantic indie rock outfit is split between New York City and the UK. Composed of frontman Alex Gomez, drummer Dylan Spiro, lead guitarist Harry Ruprecht, and bassist Matt Walter, the band is widely praised for their high-energy live performances and a modern, infectious take on guitar-driven indie rock.
