Tallest Man On Earth


He may not live up to his name 'Tallest Man On Earth" but he sure can sing. 

Kristian Matsson is a singer/ songwriter from Sweden. Known for his on stage charisma and his love for his guitar, Tallest Man On  Earth is someone worth checking out. Critics have even compared Matsson to Bob Dylan in terms of his vocal and songwriting ability.

Bands similar to Tallest Man On Earth include Fleet Foxes, Iron &Wine, and Bon Iver.

To date Tallest Man On Earth have released three albums "Shallow Grave," "The Wild Hunt," and "There's No Leaving Now." Although I have sadly yet to see this guy live, I hope to do so very soon. As a live performer Matsson has received some great reviews, and has even toured with some great artists like
Bon Iver.
