DOWNLOAD: Tallest Man On Earth - Like The Wheel (MP3)

Dead Oceans announced a new EP by The Tallest Man On Earth titled Sometimes The Blues Is Just A Passing Bird, out now on iTunes. The EP (cover art above) consists of four new songs and a newly recorded version of "Like The Wheel" which he played as part of his encore at the Highline Ballroom show last April. The song was originally released as a bonus track to The Tallest Man On Earth's most recent full length, The Wild Hunt, as a slow piano ballad. The new EP version is primarily guitar based and played at a faster tempo. Download the track for free above.
Sometimes The Blues Is Just A Passing Bird is currently only available on iTunes but is set for a physical release on November 9. The Tallest Man On Earth plays Webster Hall on Monday, September 27 (tickets are still on sale) as part of his upcoming tour with S. Carey.

For a solo act, this guy puts on a great live show.

I was bored to tears with this guy at Pitchfork. Third-rate Bob Dylan wannabe.

Every singer-songwriter is a third-rate Dylan wannabe.

Saw him last spring in a small club. Guy kills it for just him and a guitar. Can mabybe see how that doesn't translate to an outdoor summer festival though...
