The Math Rock Reunion: Don Caballero Announces Y2K Lineup Reunion
The long-awaited news has finally dropped: the instrumental powerhouse Don Caballero is reuniting. This Pittsburgh-based band, legendary for co-pioneering and perfecting the math rock sound during their formative ’91 through 2000 run, has answered a decades-long fan wish by confirming a reunion of their original Y2K-era lineup.

Recently, the group took a moment to unwind, gathering at bassist Eric Emm’s home in a pastoral Connecticut suburb. Amidst the planning, they spent time swapping stories from their quarter-century-old tours, reliving the history that built their unique sound.
This casual yet reflective gathering underscored the deep bond among the members, illustrating how the foundation laid during their seminal period shaped a lasting legacy. The excitement surrounding the reunion is palpable, promising a potent blend of classic math rock energy and renewed creative energy for the future.
