The Tallest Man on Earth- live in NYC

Just last month Swedish artist, Kristian Matsson aka The Tallest Man on Earth released his brilliant sophomore LP, The Wild Hunt. Matsson has been called Sweden's very own version of a modern day Bob Dylan, and it's not only due to his vocal stylings, but TTMOE can craft a story with his words with the best of them. He first gained some notoriety here in the U.S. while supporting Bon Iver on his tour dates, wowing crowds that showed up early.
Pitchfork TV recently captured The Tallest Man on Earth playing some intimate live acoustic performances in the Highline Park in NYC, where he played, "The Wild Hunt" and "King of Spain" off the new LP.
