The Tallest Man on Earth announces Australia tour
“I am The Tallest Man on Earth. So tall I have a feeling that my funeral will be expensive, they'll have to saw my body in half and put the two parts in separate graves. I guess some people will mourn the top part, some the bottom.”
Behind the name The Tallest Man On Earth is Kristian Matsson of Dalarna, Sweden. He plays guitar and banjo and released a self-titled 5-track EP, in Europe mid-year (on Gravitation), before his debut album Shallow Graves, which is to be released in Australia August 30th on Spunk Records/EMI.
Since the release of the album Kristian has toured the US and Europe, and is about to go on tour in Sweden again before returning to the US to open for Bon Iver in December.
THE TALLEST MAN ON EARTH AUSTRALIAN TOUR:
Wednesday 1st, Troubadour, Brisbane
Wednesday 8th, Hopetoun Hotel, Sydney
Saturday 11th, Toff In Town, Melbourne
