The Tallest Man on Earth is the moniker of the folk musician Kristian Matsson of Dalarna, Sweden. Matsson also sings in a band called Montezumas.

In 2006 Kristian Mattson released a self-titled five-song EP. On March 5, 2008 he released his full-length debut in Sweden titled Shallow Grave. So far the critical reception seems to be positive, with Pitchfork Media rating the album 8.3 out of 10. Shallow Grave was also rated the sixth best album of 2008 by Obscure Sound. Matsson toured the United States with Bon Iver late in 2008.
