THE TALLEST MAN ON EARTH SHARES
TWO NEW SPOTIFY SINGLES

LISTEN TO SPARKLING VERSION OF “LOOKING FOR LOVE”
+ JAMES BLAKE COVER “SAY WHAT YOU WILL”

FALL NORTH AMERICAN TOUR BEGINS SEPTEMBER 5

"The way redwoods and cathedrals scrape the sky, Matsson’s fingers pluck and strum his strings with a higher purpose, and his secret-weapon voice has remained a potent tool in the emotional arms race of modern music.” — MTV

 

Fresh on the heels of his critically acclaimed new album ‘Henry St.’The Tallest Man On Earth aka Kristian Matsson has released two new tracks today in conjunction with the Spotify Singles program. Recorded at the Spotify Studio in Stockholm, they include a lush, string-filled version of his ‘Henry St.’ song “Looking For Love” and a soaring cover of James Blake’s “Say What You Will.” Listen to them below.

“I’ve had the luxury of meeting him a couple of times and he’s such an inspiring and warm and talented artist,” Matsson said of James Blake and why he chose to cover one of his songs. “Sometimes you need a reminder of why you do what you do and James’s live shows have always been that for me.”

Also out now is ‘Birding At Betty’s’, a new documentary that shows a behind the scenes look at the making of ‘Henry St.’ Directed by Matsson’ friend Rolf Nylinder, the film juxtaposes beautiful footage of Sweden’s verdant forest landscapes with intimate conversations backstage and on the Tallest Man tour bus; watch the tender new film and a Q&A between Matsson and Nylinder below.

The Tallest Man On Earth will also continue to tour in support of ‘Henry St.’, headlining shows in his home country of Sweden in August before embarking on a North American tour in September and a run of dates in New Zealand and Australia this December. Next year, The Tallest Man On Earth will be accompanied by Amsterdam Sinfonietta for limited engagement of concert hall performances in January. All upcoming shows are listed below.
