3. Keanu Reeves - Dogstar
Keanu Reeves will always be known for his terrific performance as Neo in The Matrix (and among internet folk for his infinite capacity for sadness), and has more recently been seen in the unexpectedly decent flick John Wick. Once upon a time, though, he was also an aspiring rocker. Specialising in alt-rock, Dogstar was a band that existed from the middle of the 90s to the early 2000s. The band consisted of four members until 1995, when guitarist and vocalist Gregg Miller left, leaving the trio of Reeves, Robert Mailhouse and Bret Domrose. While active, Reeves played bass and sang backup vocals for the band. Over the course of their career they released one EP (Quattro Formaggi in 1996) and two albums (Our Little Visionary, 1996, Happy Ending, 2000). One of the band's more notable performances was at Glastonbury in 1999. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Thc7P-mGcPc
