Djo is the musical project of actor, producer, and songwriter Joe Keery (Stranger Things, Fargo). Departing from the synth-driven bedroom recordings of his past, his latest album, The Crux, embraces lush guitars and a sound reminiscent of late 60s and 70s pop. The album features lead single, “Basic Being Basic,” which hit #1 on the US Alternative radio charts. The Crux Deluxe — an expansive, 12-track companion album to The Crux – expertly picks up where the sonics and themes of the songs on The Crux left off. With a sold-out worldwide headline tour and a Grammy-nominated album for The Crux, 2025 marked a standout year for Djo.
Momentum has only grown in 2026, with “End of Beginning” returning to #1 on the global charts and streams of The Crux doubling worldwide. Djo’s breakout hit “End of Beginning” became a global phenomenon in 2024, reaching #1 on Spotify’s Global chart and ranking as the #6 most streamed song of the year, and is on track to do it once again this year. The track has charted in 41 countries, earned Platinum & Gold certifications in 17 territories, hit #11 on the Billboard Hot 100, broke into the Top 5 at US Alternative Radio and rose to #12 at US Top 40.
