Sweden's Kristian Matsson, AKA The Tallest Man On Earth, has shared the title track from his upcoming LP Dark Bird Is Home.
Slowly developing from a sparse acoustic number into a rolling summer-folk epic, it demonstrates Matsson's uncanny ability to deliver huge sounds, huge emotions, and a hugely inventive grasp of structure, dynamics and pace.
The track follows "Sagres" in previewing the upcoming LP, which is out 11 May on Dead Oceans.
