“Thank you everyone for the kind comments. We are overjoyed to see such a response. Honestly, didn’t expect this. It makes us want to play out even more. We will be rolling out some new music this summer, followed by some gigs. As soon as it’s all figured out we will let everyone know immediately. So much to do, but rest assured, we are on it and have assembled a fantastic team that are helping us. We are also going to make a music video to support our first tune. That’s all I can say now.”

Dogstar adds:”Can’t wait to share our new music with everyone. It’s the most satisfying and meaningful batch of songs we’ve ever done. Thanks again for being so patient with us. We truly have the best, most loyal fans!”

Reeves co-founded Dogstar in 1991 where the band  released two albums, toured with Bon Jovi  and opened a show for David Bowie. Reeves performed  the bass guitar  and backing vocals for the band but eventually the actor’s  fame made it difficult to find time for the project. Dogstar broke up in 2002 and Revees later played in the spinoff group Becky with Dogstar drummer, co-founder and actor Robert Mailhouse.
