The Tallest Man on Earth brings added depth to new songs at Lincoln Theatre

The Tallest Man on Earth began his career with several records that crackled with sharp and intimate songs, delivered with acoustic guitar and a distinctive voice. Since that point, the Tallest Man -- the moniker used by Swedish-born Kristian Matsson, who stands about 5-foot-8 -- has gradually expanded the sweep of his music, adding drums and electric instruments to broaden and color his raw, searching songs.
