"Djo Nominated for International Song of the Year"

Djo, the musical project of actor and songwriter Joe Keery, has secured a nomination for International Song of the Year at the upcoming BRIT Awards. This exciting news arrives on the heels of his latest single, “Delete Ya,” which has been crowned BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record In The World. These developments set the stage for a spectacular 2025 for Djo, especially with his new album, The Crux, set to drop on April 4th.

The momentum for Djo continues to climb following his viral success in 2024 with the hit single “End of Beginning.” That track became a global phenomenon, topping the Global Spotify chart and amassing an astonishing 1.5 billion streams, along with impressive visibility on social media platforms like TikTok. The anticipation surrounding his new music is palpable, with the lead single from The Crux, “Basic Being Basic,” already making waves on US Alternative Radio.

In addition to his musical accomplishments, Djo is about to embark on a highly anticipated tour. The Back On You Tour, which includes sold-out shows in North America and a special three-night residency at O2 Kentish Town in London, will begin on the same day as his album release. Fans can expect to see Djo perform at prominent festivals, including Coachella and the Best Kept Secret Festival, among others.

The Crux signifies a significant evolution in Djo’s sound, moving away from his earlier bedroom recordings to a more polished and instrumentation-rich style reminiscent of the late 60s and 70s pop. Co-produced with long-time collaborator Adam Thein, the album features themes of loss, yearning, and the importance of community, all conveyed through Djo’s unique songwriting ability.

The album’s lyrical richness and collaborative spirit derive from his personal experiences, capturing the essence of resilience and emotional exploration. While every track stands out, fans can look forward to relishing the blend of musical craftsmanship that has characterized this project.

Djo’s acclaim is not simply built on his acting career; his journey into music has also been compelling. His initial foray into music began in his teenage years and gained traction with the psych-rock band Post Animal. With the successful releases of his previous albums, Twenty Twenty and DECIDE, Djo’s growing reputation as a multi-talented artist has solidified his place in both the music and acting realms.

To celebrate Djo’s incredible achievements and his BRIT Award nomination, fans are encouraged to stream “Delete Ya” across popular platforms. Anticipation is building for The Crux, and with the release just around the corner, this is an exciting time for both Djo and his growing fanbase.
