More on Djo & The Crux:
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. It's an album full of loss and yearning, but also one full of wit and gratitude. The album was written all over the world in a particularly fertile period for Keery - where he was grappling with the transience of his other job, being untethered and away from his friends and family. But to make the album he settled into the legendary Electric Lady Studios in his adopted home of New York City. 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).
What begins as a meditation on the dissolution of a relationship winds its way back to self-resilience, and a celebration and recognition of the importance of nurturing community. These themes are reflected in both his lyrics and in the collaborative spirit of the music, with contributions from his family and lifelong friends lending the album a warm energy mirroring the bonds at the record’s core. Although the songs are rich with specificity, the album plays like a movie soundtrack, where the listener can easily align with a character, situation, or emotion. And this is, in part, how Keery frames the album’s concept through its art - a collaboration with Neil Krug - as a hotel where all of its guests are transient, and at a spiritual or emotional crossroads.
Djo had a massive 2024 with his song “End of Beginning” taking off worldwide, where after climbing to #1 on the Global Spotify chart it was the #6 most streamed song in the world in 2024 with 1.5 BILLION streams and over 60 BILLION TikTok views. The song landed on official single charts in 41 countries, also racking up multiple Platinum & Gold records in 17 territories. “End of Beginning” peaked at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100, went top 10 at Alternative Radio and #12 at Top 40. Listen to the song HERE.
Though most widely known for his acting roles, Keery has long been an interdisciplinary power-house, and began making music as a teenager. He later joined the psych-rock band Post Animal while in Chicago. In 2019 he released his first album, Twenty Twenty under the moniker Djo. In 2022, his remarkable sophomore album DECIDE was released via AWAL to critical acclaim, performances at major U.S. festivals like Lollapalooza, unparalleled global success on DSPs, and recognition at the BRIT Awards, Billboard Music Awards and iHeartRadio Music Awards.
