Djo –  the musical project of actor / producer / songwriter Joe Keery known for his work in blockbuster projects as Stranger Things and Fargo – announces his highly anticipated new album The Crux. The follow-up to Djo’s 2022 album DECIDE, which featured the blockbuster hit “End of Beginning,” The Crux will be released on April 4th on AWAL. Djo has also announced a major 2025 global tour. The Djo – Back On You Tour will feature Post Animal as support on all North American, UK and EU tour dates.

The Crux was co-produced by Keery and his long-time collaborator Adam Thein. It’s an album of impeccable craftsmanship. Unlike Keery’s previous albums – bedroom recordings centered around synths – The Crux spotlights lush guitars and instrumentation reminiscent of late 60’s and 70’s pop.  The Crux not only showcases his ambitious scope, but also his skills as a deft multi-instrumentalist and songwriter (all songs were written by Keery or in collaboration with Adam Thein).

The first single “Basic Being Basic,” with Oberheim OB-X8 synths and falsetto refrain, has its final verses shrewdly skewer the (often online) tropes of modern day posturing. “It’s kind of a shot fired to anyone who’s trying to be of the moment,” says Keery. Listen to the song HERE.
