Keanu Reeves brought his band Dogstar to The Tonight Show to perform their anthemic song “Joy.” The group, which also includes Bret Domrose and Robert Mailhouse, offered a moody rendition of the rock number, off their 2026 LP All in Now.
All In Now, released
in May, marked the group’s second LP since reforming in 2023 after a two-decade break. Reeves and his Dogstar bandmates reunited in 2023 for their first shows since 2002, which they quickly followed up with Somewhere Between the Power Lines and Palm Trees, their first new album since 2000’s Happy Ending.
Although Reeves is still focused on his acting career, he was eager to rejoin his Dogstar bandmates in the studio with producer Nick Launay and continue their reunion last year. “We couldn’t fucking wait,” Reeves said in a statement ahead of the album’s release. “Personally, I loved it all. For me, the attitude was like, ‘Let’s work hard and let’s GO.’”
He told the Los Angeles Times recently that he enjoys the shared experience of making an album. “You get being together, you get the mixing board, you get the loud headphones, you get your producer there looking at you — listening to you,” Reeves said. “It’s not carved up in sections — you’re sharing an experience.”
Dogstar is currently on tour in North America in support of the album. The trek continues tonight in Atlantic City and continues through Sept. 3, when it wraps in Salt Lake City.
Last year, Reeves starred as an angel in Good Fortune, appearing alongside Seth Rogen and Aziz Ansari. Earlier this year, he appeared in Jonah Hill’s comedy film Outcome. He also recently filmed Ruben Östlund’s forthcoming satire film, The Entertainment System Is Down, which has yet to get a release date.
