Swedish singer and guitarist Kristian Matsson is a soft-spoken guy who stands somewhere around five and a half feet tall. But on stage, he's known as The Tallest Man on Earth, a name he's earned by giving unforgettable live performances with one of the boldest, most captivating voices around. Currently on tour for his latest album, The Wild Hunt.
Releasing one of 2008’s most powerful records (Shallow Grave) was just the beginning for the Swede who has been praised by Pitchfork as
"a natural-born folksinger, earnest, clever, and comforting.”
It is impossible to discuss The Tallest Man on Earth's music without acknowledging Bob Dylan. The seemingly effortlessness, the melodic sensibility and the deft lyricism all recall Dylan's early years. But when you witness the Tallest Man on Earth perform live, you are watching a man possessed. The energy pours out with every word. Full of intensity and raw emotion, he paces the stage, bringing the audience into the palm of his hand, completely lost in his songs.
With the release of The Tallest Man on Earth’s Second album ‘The Wild Hunt’ his fate was set, as word of his commanding voice and intoxicating melodies continue to spread across the globe.
