Gig Review: The Tallest Man On Earth @ The Corner Hotel, 25th October

October 26, 2011 by Lachy 1 Comment

Playing mostly gentle acoustic music to a packed Tuesday night crowd certainly isn’t the easiest gig in the world. Kristian Matsson, also deceptively known as The Tallest Man On Earth, made it look absurdly easy however, to the point where the crowd’s reaction can only be adequately described as that of hero worship.
