#Dijon Shares New Song With John C. Reilly, Tobias Jesso Jr., and More: Listen

Los Angeles singer and songwriter Dijon has shared a new song called “The Stranger.” The track features vocals from Tobias Jesso Jr., John C. Reilly, Becky and the Birds, Raveena, and others. Listen below.

“I always wanted to make a duet and couldn’t,” Dijon said in a press release.

Got drunk and started what I wanted to be one, then had friends at the house and they sang harmonies while I slumped over embarrassingly trying not to throw up from the booze. This strange idea of creating a bizarre posse song, similar to a scenario by A Tribe Called Quest or something, but with guitars. Different voices on the same guitar loop was intriguing and I asked people I knew if they wanted to try it. Eventually, [co-producers] Jack [Jack Karaszewski], Henry [Kwapis], and I randomly threw names in a hat of who would seem really strange and fun on it; mostly people we’d never heard on a song or on an album together. I am very appreciative that these people gave this a chance.

Earlier this year, Dijon released his How Do You Feel About Getting Married? EP. John C. Reilly recently joined forces with Tim Heidecker and Fred Armisen for their TV show MOONBASE 8.
