The Tallest Man On Earth in Chicago

The Tallest Man On Earth is the stage name of Swedish singer-songwriter Kristian Matsson, born in Leksand in 1983. He writes homespun folk ballads in a signature croon, and critics often compare him to Bob Dylan. "Shallow Grave" (2008) began his run of albums, and "Henry St." (2023) was his first recorded with a full band. Live, he roams the stage on a long guitar cord, darting and crouching as he plays.
