When you hear someone talking about the 'Tallest Man On Earth', your thoughts probably turn to that Turkish guy who reaches a whopping 2.51 metres - and not to a Swedish singer/songwriter. Well, you had better learn about Kristian Matsson, aka Tallest Man On Earth, quickly – because he's on his way to South Africa to perform live in Cape Town and Jo'burg.
This 28-year-old singer/songwriter has been compared to the likes of Bob Dylan, and has managed to receive consistently glowing reviews from top music magazines and sites, as well as supporting mega band,
Bon Iver, on tour.
Unfortunately, both the Cape Town and Jo'burg shows are sold out.
For those of you who managed to snatch up your tickets, here's what you can expect.
Check out a message from Tallest Man On Earth to his fans on his South African tour:
Here's the official video for his single, 'Love Is All' from the 2010 album,
Wild Hunt.
