The Tallest Man on Earth – There’s No Leaving Now

  • June 4, 2012

Swedish singer-songwriter Tallest Man on Earth (a.k.a. Kristian Matsson) released one of my favorite and highly acclaimed folk records of 2010, The Wild Hunt, which full of both unrelenting and beautiful Americana tinged folk. Matsson’s latest, There’s No Leaving Now, picks up where The Wild Hunt left off, expanding upon the ragged vocals, finger-picked guitar arrangements and tender ballads of love and heartbreak. This time he plugs in with pedal steel and a broader range of instrumentation for a more expansive sound. There’s No Leaving Now is sure to be one of folk highlights of this year, and may even bring a wider audience to the incredible talent of The Tallest Man on Earth. – Written by JFelton
