WHAT IT IS: Djo is the critically acclaimed brainchild of musician/actor Joe Keery (Stranger Things). Since making a splash with his 2019 debut album, Twenty Twenty, Keery notched hits including “Chateau” and “Roddy,” which reached the Spotify Viral 50 chart in 24 countries and achieved 125m+ streams. His forthcoming sophomore set, DECIDE, offers a spellbinding collage of snaky pop hooks, colorful melodies and deeply personal lyrics. Distinguished by his quick wit, irrepressible spirit and breadth of vision, the album will showcase Keery’s craftsmanship and boundary-pushing abilities.
