Los Angeles’ Militarie Gun teams up with Richmond’s Dazy for their new collaborative song “Tall People Don’t Live Long”. This track marks the highly anticipated, second joint.

Speaking about the new collaborative song, Shelton shares, “James is taller than me so you can guess how I came up with the title of this song. What started as a joke between us turned into a real conversation about how sometimes people who have reached certain heights in life begin to look down on others. ’Tall people’ became our tongue-in-cheek term for anyone that’s lost so much perspective that they think it’s alright to make someone feel less-than. This song is about rejecting that attitude—the bigger they are, the harder they fall.”

Goodson offers, “Ian and I wrote this song shortly after ‘Pressure Cooker’ came out and it made us realize how daring we could actually be with songwriting. It came together really quickly in an afternoon of us sending ideas back and forth, and I’ll never forget how we couldn’t stop listening to the demo and saying ‘I can’t believe we wrote this.’ Years later we were finally able to get together and take the song over the finish line with Justin Raisen. We see Dazy & Militarie Gun as basically its own band, a separate body of work from our other music with its own identity, and I think this song really solidified that idea for us.”
