Dark Bird Is Home is the fourth LP by The Tallest Man on Earth. It was released on CD, digital and vinyl on May 12, 2015 through the label Dead Oceans.[1][2] The album is the first in his discography to feature a full band playing on almost every track.

Background

The songs of the album were recorded in various countries, studios, and barns, and are said to "carry a weather-worn quality, some dirt and some grit." [3] BJ Burton announced via his Instagram page that production on the album had begun in July 2014 and concluded in September 2014.[4][5] The album is said to be Matsson's most personal and direct piece of work, inspired by the death of a close family member and by the divorce from his wife, singer-songwriter Amanda Bergman.[6][7] A trailer for the album was released on February 10, 2015, with Matsson proclaiming that "this is not the end, this is fine".[8]
