THE KIMI KATO SHOW - With Jeremiah - Featuring Hoobastank - Doug Robb + Dan Estrin 

Doug and Dan join Kimi to discuss their two-decade-plus friendship, getting signed, recording their first album, lunches at Hurry Curry of Tokyo, Rolling Stone Magazine, working and touring together in Japan, and great Summer Sonic memories.

A single embedded into pop culture history, Hoobastank’s “The Reason” just entered the elite Billions Club on Spotify as the song surpassed 1 billion streams. With just over 600 songs to surpass this milestone, Hoobastank is the latest to be added to the illustrious playlist alongside music legends AC/DC, The Beatles, Whitney Houston, Elton John, and more.

Amid the 20th anniversary of The Reason, Hoobastank re-entered the studio with Howard Benson, the producer responsible for this iconic album, for an intimate track-by-track experience. Reminiscing about this magical time in 2003, Benson, vocalist Doug Robb, and guitarist Dan Estrin take fans behind the scenes, discussing never-before-shared stories of The Reason. The episodes will debut weekly.
