Ian Shelton of Militarie Gun

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Ian Shelton of Militarie Gun.

Though Militarie Gun are only a year removed from their buzzy debut album, Life Under the Gun, they’ve essentially been touring nonstop — first on their own headliner and then opening dates for A Day to Remember this past June.

It’s a mentality that defines the band — always moving, looking forward, and giving back to the community that raised them to achieve something far greater.

“Touring is disruptive, but it also fits in the rhythm of my life — waking up, getting in the van, and driving in the next city is a thing that makes sense to my brain,” Shelton explained during their AP cover story interview. “I can pretty much do that on an infinite loop.”

Listen to their conversation on Artist Friendly wherever you listen to podcasts. You can also watch the episode over at Veeps.
