It's been quite a while since I posted lovely folkie tunes, so now it's right about time for an epic reminder. The Tallest Man on Earth is a stage name of a Swedish singer/songwriter Kristian Matsson. Matsson has been active since 2006 and recorded a bunch of EPs and three studio albums. Sounds like an impressive heritage.

To be honest, my knowledge about this guy is very limited as I heard some songs here and there, but I can definitely say I liked the little bits I've heard so far.

"The Gardener" is the track off his debut album Shallow Grave released back in 2008 and even though it is relatively old it doesn't change a thing.  His unique husky vocals with the lovely acoustic guitar make the world a little bit better.

Check out this video of Kristian playing "The Gardener" somewhere in the sunset. Beautiful.
