Dogstar 2026 UK Tour: Keanu Reeves’ Grunge Revival

December 3, 2025 rocknews

Keanu Reeves’ enduring grunge outfit Dogstar is blasting back into the UK for their 2026 All In Now Tour, a high-octane European swing that promises raw riffs, heartfelt anthems, and that unmistakable ’90s edge reborn. Announced December 2, 2025, the trek kicks off with intimate headline blasts in Dublin and London before storming the hallowed grounds of Donington Park for Download Festival’s Saturday slot—marking the band’s biggest UK invasion since their early-2000s heyday. If you’re chasing Dogstar 2026 UK tour dates, ticket drops, or setlist vibes from their 2024 comeback album Stream (a surprise return after 20+ years), this is your front-row dispatch: We’ve mapped the full schedule, presale hacks, expected playlist (think “Breach” bangers and “Our Little Visionary” classics), and why Reeves (bass/backing vocals), Bret Domrose (guitar/vocals), and Rob Mailhouse (drums) are the grunge relics we didn’t know we needed. Formed in ’91 amid Reeves’ Bill & Ted buzz, Dogstar’s hiatus-fueled fire—fueled by Stream‘s alt-rock warmth—hits UK shores June 11-14. Who’s moshing in the mud? Let’s dive!

Dogstar’s story? Pure Hollywood grit: Reeves co-founded the trio in ’91 (post-Speed fame), blending grunge hooks with pop sensibility on Our Little Visionary (1996) and Happy Ending (2000). They toured with Bon Jovi, opened for Bowie, then paused for Reeves’ matrix of blockbusters. Fast-forward to 2024: Stream drops (No. 1 Rock Albums chart), BottleRock slays, and now 2026’s All In Now Tour expands the revival—expect 90-minute sets of nostalgia and new fire, with Domrose’s soaring leads and Mailhouse’s thunder driving the chaos.

Setlist Tease: What to Expect from Dogstar’s All In Now Live

No official 2026 setlist yet, but channeling 2024’s Stream tour (e.g., LA Troubadour: 15 tracks, ~85 mins), anticipate a grunge-pop balance:

Openers: “Breach” (Stream heater; Reeves’ bass thump sets the tone).
Core Cuts: “Everything Turns Around,” “Streamline” (new-era fire), “Our Little Visionary” (crowd-surf staple).
Deep Dive: “Happy Ending” rarities, “Sunday” singalongs—Domrose’s guitar wails stealing shows.
Closer: “Breach” encore with fan chants.

Runtime: 80-90 mins of ’90s nostalgia meets 2020s polish—expect Reeves’ low-key charm mid-set, Mailhouse’s drum solos, and zero filler. Pro move: Front pit for bass face views.

Dogstar: From ’90s Grunge Side Hustle to 2026 Revival Kings

Dogstar’s arc? Reeves’ passion project amid Point Break fame: ’91 formation (as “Small Fecal Matter”), Our Little Visionary (1996, Elektra) tours with Bon Jovi/Bowie, Happy Ending (2000) farewell before hiatus. 2024’s Stream (DGC/Universal)—co-produced by Domrose—revived it: “We just knew there was ‘X’ amount of time, and we needed to make the most of it” (Reeves to Billboard). 2025? US fests, vinyl surges; now 2026’s All In Now cements the comeback. Follow the howl: Official Site | Instagram | Spotify.
