Adam Johnson performing on the NEW Vizzy Stage at Coors Event Centre

From the “Paris of the Prairies,” Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Adam Johnson is an up-and-coming country musician who grew his roots in rock ‘n’ roll. Adam started writing music at an early age. As he grew, his influences evolved to the likes of Dylan and The Tragically Hip as he continued to hone his blossoming writing ability. In high school, Adam continued to expand his musical interests, developing a love for country music. The likes of Kenny Chesney and Dierks Bentley became mainstays of his summer soundtracks.

Adam began writing country music in early 2020 and started pursuing a career shortly after. This meant navigating the industry and trying to gain a foothold during a global pandemic. Despite the challenges the Pandemic brought, Adam finally released his debut single, “Come On Let’s Go,” to radio and streaming services on May 28^th, 2021. He pulls influence from many works, but modern country—like Dierks Bentley—and classic rock—like The Rolling Stones—shine through strongest in his debut song.

Since releasing “Come On Let’s Go,” Adam has returned to the studio, ready to build off his first release. As things have opened up, Adam began performing some of his news songs live which quickly became favourites of his high-energy live shows.
