Description:

The Tallest Man On Earth â?? the project of Swedish musician Kristian Matsson â?? presents Too Late For Edelweiss, an album of new covers out ANTI. With Too Late For Edelweiss, Matsson weaves together a sparse collection of home recordings made in Sweden and North Carolina, captured fresh off a 39-date run with the adrenaline of tour rattling through his veins. The songs on Too Late For Edelweiss have been with Matsson since he started playing music as The Tallest Man on Earth in 2006. In those early years, Matsson used to perform â??Lost Highwayâ? by Hank Williams before he had enough songs to flesh out a full set. In July 2022, Matsson released a cover of Swedish super star HÃ¥kan Hell- strÃ¶mâ??s â??FÃ¶r sent fÃ¶r Edelweiss,â? a precious song that has been The Tall- est Manâ??s walk-on music before every performance for over a decade and what inspired the title of this covers album. Since then, in the lead-up to this announcement, he has quietly released other selections, including Lucinda Williamsâ?? â??Metal Firecracker,â? Yo La Tengoâ??s â??Tears Are In Your Eyesâ? and now â??Lost Highway.â? Mattson explains, â??When I was a teenager I borrowed a Hank Williams album at the local library, and â??Lost Highwayâ?? has been haunting me ever since. Many vocal sound checks throughout my career have heard Hankâ??s advice.â? As much as Too Late For Edelweiss feels like a scrapbook, an intimate me- mento with the ghosts of The Tallest Manâ??s earlier, sparser sound hovering at the edges, itâ??s also just the artifact of a moment - a flash of joy, of feeling recharged, of feeling good. These are the songs that happened to be in Mats- sonâ??s head at the time he sat down to record. It came together so simply and easily â?? and in that way, itâ??s the purest distillation of making music - and being a fan of it, charting the connective tissue of a songwriterâ??s life. - ..
