Kristian Matsson, better known as The Tallest Man On Earth, has swapped his shirt for a pair of dancing shoes in a video for "Darkness of the Dream".
The track, taken from his fourth album Dark Bird Is Home, is a beautifully layered piece of folk-tinged acoustic ramblings. The video, directed by Jakob Wallin, highlights some beautiful landscapes, a cute dog, and proves that Matsson really does have good feet for a big man as he makes light work of some tricky choreography.
Dark Bird Is Home is available now through Dead Oceans.
