The Tallest Man On Earth announces new album with raw ballad "The Running Styles Of New York"

Swedish singer/songwriter Kristian Matsson, better known as The Tallest Man On Earth, has announced his next album I Love You. It's A Fever Dream. with the first single, "The Running Styles Of New York".

New ballad "The Running Styles Of New York" is the first new material from Matsson since last year's When The Bird Sees The Solid Ground project, which saw the musician take control of producing, writing, directing, recording, shooting, and editing the five-part project.

On the new single, Matsson says, "Here’s what I can tell you: Of course there are some love songs and then there are some other songs. Making the album I was thinking a lot about the lenses we view our lives through and that, for some reason, our worst tendencies seem to be carried out so loudly, while our best can go unnoticed. I’ve come to realize that some of the most powerful, most inspiring moments in my life have been the most subtle and that so often the thing that deserves my attention, is trying the least to get it."

I Love You. It's A Fever Dream will be The Tallest Man On Earth's first studio album since 2015's Dark Bird Is Home.

"The Running Styles Of New York" is out now. I Love You. It's A Fever Dream. will be released in April. The Tallest Man On Earth will play London's All Points East festival on 2 June. Find out more.
