About Djo
Artist Biography
In addition to tending to an acting career that has included a prominent role on Stranger Things, Joe Keery maintains a thriving indie music career under the name Djo (pronounced “Joe”). Born in Massachusetts in 1992, he first released music under the name Cool Cool Cool before cutting his teeth as a touring and recording member of the Chicago rock band Post Animal. Keery stepped away from the group due to his increasingly busy acting schedule but began releasing music as Djo in 2019. He followed that year’s psychedelic-pop-leaning Twenty Twenty with 2022’s DECIDE, a full-length that incorporated synth-heavy pop that was full of heart—as embodied by the 2024 viral hit “End of Beginning,” which tapped into longing and nostalgia for the past.
