The Tallest Man on Earth - that's the musical pseudonym of Swedish musician Kristian Matsson, rather than yer man from the Guinness Book of Records - has just announced details of his new album.

'Dark Bird is Home' is Matsson's fourth album and is released on May 8th. It's the follow-up to 2012's 'There's No Leaving Now'.

The album tracklisting is:

01. Fields of Our Home
02. Darkness of the Dream
03. Singers
04. Slow Dance
05. Little Nowhere Towns
06. Sagres
07. Timothy
08. Beginners
09. Seventeen
10. Dark Bird Is Home

The last Tallest Man on Earth gig at Dublin's Iveagh Gardens in 2013 was very special, so if you're a fan, you'll be pleased to learn that he'll be playing Vicar Street on October 21st.  Tickets are on sale this Friday at 9am from usual outlets.

You can hear 'Sagres', the first single from the new album, below.
