Dec. 6 street date. The TALLEST MAN ON EARTH released one of 2008's most powerful records, one that Pitchfork praised, calling Kristian Matsson "a natural-born folksinger, earnest, clever, and comforting". 'Shallow Grave' could not have been more simple, just Matsson's commanding vocals with an acoustic guitar or banjo, recorded at his home in Dalarna, Sweden. Although the album was released on the Swedish label Gravitation without the help of widespread distribution, the story of The Tallest Man on Earth spread far and wide through word of mouth.
June 21 street date. Vinyl edition of the TALLEST MAN ON EARTH's self-titled EP (originally released in 2006). The LP features the never before released vinyl only bonus track "In The Pockets".

April 14 street date. Kristian Matsson has never remained in one place for very long. Having spent much of the last decade touring around the world as The Tallest Man on Earth, Matsson has captivated audiences using, as The New York Times describes, "every inch of his long guitar cord to roam the stage: darting around, crouching, stretching, hip-twitching, perching briefly and jittering away. Mr. Matsson is a guitar-slinger rooted in folk, and his songs are troubadour ballads at heart". Now, Matsson returns as The Tallest Man on Earth with "Henry St., his sixth studio album and notably the first time he recorded an album in a band setting. Nick Sanborn (of Sylvan Esso) produced "Henry St.", which includes contributions from Ryan Gustafson (of The Dead Tongues) on guitar, lap steel and ukulele, TJ Maiani on drums, CJ Camerieri (of Bon Iver) on trumpet and French horn, Phil Cook on piano and organ, Rob Moose (of Bon Iver, yMusic) on strings, and Adam Schatz on saxophone.
