DJO Returns With New Single “Basic Being Basic”.
Djo – the musical project of actor / producer / songwriter Joe Keery - known for his work in blockbuster projects as Stranger Things and Fargo – has today made his highly anticipated return with new single ‘Basic Being Basic’. Teasing something big is coming on his socials over the past few weeks here, here + here, the new single is just a taste of what 2025 has to offer for the world of Djo.
With its Oberheim OB-X8 synths and falsetto refrain, the final verses of the new single shrewdly skewer the (often online) tropes of modern day posturing. “It’s kind of a shot fired to anyone who's trying to be of the moment,” says Keery.
Djo will debut ‘Basic Being Basic’ on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where he’ll also be a couch guest on January 28.
‘Basic Being Basic’ lands ahead of Djo's debut visit to Australia and New Zealandjoining the lineup of Laneway 2025, as well as a very special, one-night-only debut Australian headline show at Sydney's Enmore Theatre on Wednesday 13 February 2025 - tickets available here.
