75 - Ian Shelton of Militarie Gun

The Sailor Jerry Podcast

Ian Shelton is the lead singer of Militarie Gun. In this episode, we dive into the deepest depths of Ian's songwriting process, starting with the band's latest single, “Thought You Were Waving.” We also discuss the band's recent EP, working with Shooter Jennings, and the importance of collaboration and building genuine connections in the music industry. Matt and Ian also ponder the romantic implications of a first date at Olive Garden, DJing at the Taco Bell Cantina, actors as musicians, demo-itis, Aerosmith, Garth Brooks, Modest Mouse, Henry Rollins, horrible live sessions, and so much more! As always, brought to you by Sailor Jerry!
