Too Late for Edelweiss

The Tallest Man on Earth

A collection of covers recorded at home on a tape player. Sparse, dusty, and incredibly intimate, it feels like sitting in a room with an old friend.

It sounds like he's playing these songs just for you in his living room.

A quiet, reverent appreciation for the songs that make us who we are.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The audible click of the tape recorder starting and stopping between tracks, grounding the album in a physical space.
The fragile, slowed-down piano arrangement of Pink Rabbits that strips the original of its bar-room swagger.
The way his voice cracks with genuine affection during the final refrain of the Beatles cover In My Life.
