Keery has been making music since his teens, spending over two years with Post Animal before making his solo debut as Djo. DECIDE was created with musician / engineer Adam Thein throughout the pandemic with final recording taking place at Sound Factory in Los Angeles. DECIDE  serves as a sort of aural history of Keery’s late 20s. It features reflections on growth, relationships and navigating it all in a world filled with technology at its center. It's his sonic ambitions however that take these introspections and melt them into a warped reality with each layered synth pulling the listener’s emotional strings.

Praise for Djo & Album DECIDE:  

“[DECIDE] offers up bright synths, hiccupping new wave vocals, and cheeky self-reflection.”

- Pitchfork

"a 'grander, bolder' record than his last, one that takes full-throttle swings in its midsong production changes and leans into inspirations aplenty...But as far-ranging as Decide can be sonically, its lyrics run an even wider gamut, with Keery using his voice 'as a pocketknife multitool' from song to song. " - Billboard

“[‘Change’ is a] dynamic, psych-infused track” - Rolling Stone

“Joe Keery [is] not an ‘actor with a vanity project’ musician, [but rather] a guy who clearly knows what he’s doing…I like the lead single a lot…a slick synth-funk track.” - Stereogum

"With an easy psychedelic breeze that blends elements of indie, 'End of Beginning' is certainly a standout from Decide." - Guitar World
