The Tallest Man on Earth Announces North American Tour
Back in May, the Tallest Man on Earth’s Kristian Matsson released his fourth full-length, Dark Bird Is Home. Now, the Swedish singer-songwriter has added an extensive run of tour dates in support of his latest LP.
After making appearances at Forecastle in Louisville, Ky., and the first-ever Eaux Claire Festival in Eau Claire, Wis., Matsson will launch his new set of headlining dates in Detroit on July 20. Along the way, he’ll also play sets at the Newport Folk Festival, Lollapalooza and MusicfestNW. Matsson will then wrap up the North American portion of his tour in Austin on Sept. 13. Check out a complete list of dates below.
Dark Bird Is Home follows the Tallest Man on Earth’s 2012 effort, There’s No Leaving Now. Matsson recently performed two songs from the new album, along with “Like the Wheel” from 2010’s The Wild Hunt, on CBS This Morning. Prior to that, the singer visited Conan for a performance of Dark Bird Is Home lead single, “Sagres.” Watch that video below.
