Ask singer and guitar player Bret Domrose what it
was like for Dogstar to record Happy Ending, the
Los Angeles-based rock band's debut U.S. album,
and he thinks for a few moments and, in a moment
of absolute understatement, replies:
"Well, I will say this.  It was a long process, but it's
finally done."
A long process?  How about a grueling test of a
young band's commitment to succeed, and to
make great music together, while up against the
longest of odds?

Try working in the recording studio with two
different producers, over a full year, just to get it all
perfect.  Hell, just try getting all three members of
the band together at the same time to write and
play and record, when it always seems like at least
one of the guys is supposed to be elsewhere,
perhaps halfway around the world, doing
something else.
Try writing the best songs of your life while your
band is on tour in Australia (now there's
inspiration!), even while one of your bandmates is,
at the same time, in the middle of filming a major
motion picture in the Aussie outback.

Not to mention the preconceived notions and
uninformed opinions that many people seem to
have about Dogstar, in so many cases before even
hearing the trio's distinctive and compelling music.
Ah, but these things comprise merely the tip of the
iceberg that the threesome encountered as they
journeyed to record their much-anticipated second
full album, and their first U.S. release following the
1996 overseas-only issue of their debut album Our
Little Visionary (Zoo/BMG).

But as is often the case with Rock 'N' Roll, it's the
overcoming of obstacles and the meeting head-on
of challenges that makes for the best music.  And
so it is with the eleven lovingly-crafted, intimate
songs on Happy Ending.
The album was recorded by the band (Bret on
guitar and vocals, Keanu Reeves on bass, Rob
Mailhouse on drums) in various stages during
1999.
Many of the songs found on Happy Ending were
worked into ultimate shape during a sold-out U.S.
Spring concert tour, as well as at concerts that the
band played in England, India and Australia.

Producer #1 Michael Vail Blum, who's best known
for his work with Suicidal Tendencies and Goo Goo
Dolls, worked on 8 of the tracks in the Spring.
In the Fall, producer #2 Richie Zito (The Cult,
Cheap Trick) was on hand for the recording of the
new songs "Cornerstore" and "Blown Away," as
well as for the band's striking rendition of The
Carpenters' hit "Superstar." Zito also mixed Happy
Ending at his facility in Glendale, Calif.
The decision to record an update of "Superstar"
(following a cover of Badfinger's "No Matter What"
on the first album) came late in the process,
according to Bret.

"It wasn't originally slated to be on there," he says.
"But I like putting a cover song on there because
we're still a fairly unknown band, and it's nice to
have a song for people to immediately relate to.  It's
fun for the band, too.  We've been playing it live for
a while."
If one were to imagine the ideal conditions under
which to record an album, clearly those under
which the guys in Dogstar have been working
wouldn't qualify.  But, according to Bret, the unique
and unpredictable circumstances the band has
found itself in have worked in positive ways to
shape the confident music found on Happy Ending.

"There's never a shortage of drama around this
band," he confirms.  "Not because there are actors
in the band, but because weird things just seem to
happen to us.  It made for some interesting tension
that I know helped to make many of these songs
that much better."
