DJO, the innovative musical project led by Joe Keery, presents his third studio album, The Crux. This deeply reflective collection showcases a sonic adventure that resonates with listeners. Following the remarkable success of his single ‘End of Beginning’, which dominated the Global Spotify chart with over 1.5 billion streams, The Crux was meticulously crafted at the iconic Electric Lady Studios in New York.
In this album, DJO channels the complexities of navigating one’s 20s, delving into themes of self-discovery and the importance of connection. Each track feels like a heartfelt letter to those who matter most, creating an intimate bond with the audience. Aptly named The Crux, this album captures a pivotal moment between the past and an uncertain future.
