The Tallest Man on Earth is coming back to North America, and he’s not arriving empty-handed. The Swedish folk artist has announced a 24-date fall tour across the United States and Canada, paired with his first new original song in more than three years.
The North American run begins October 15 at Haw River Ballroom in Saxapahaw, North Carolina. From there it threads through Washington DC, New York, Boston, Toronto, Chicago, Salt Lake City, Seattle, Vancouver, and Los Angeles before wrapping November 14 in San Diego at Observatory North Park Theatre. Tickets are on sale now.
The bigger news for longtime fans is the music. Kristian Matsson, the singer-songwriter behind the project, shared his new single “Colors” this week, the first original Tallest Man on Earth song in over three years. It lands after a stretch of anticipation following the project’s 2023 album ‘Henry St.’, and Matsson’s intimate, fingerpicked songwriting is exactly the kind of thing built to carry a room this size.
