Blame It On Me

Adam Johnson is a Country Rock artist from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The 2023 SCMA Emerging Artist Award winner began his career during the pandemic. He released his debut single, “Come On Let’s Go,” in 2021, and it reached #1 on the Canadian Indie Country Countdown. Adam grew up listening to rock music like Nickelback before finding an interest in country acts like Dierks Bentley. More recently, he has found himself inspired by Hardy.

In the past three years, Adam has garnered attention from across Canada with radio play on multiple songs, including his latest song Drinking With The Boys, which spent several weeks in the media base top 100 for Canadian Country Radio, peaking at #79. He has also received multiple #1’s on the Canadian Indie Country Countdown, multiple SCMA award nominations (Male Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, and Emerging Artist of the Year), and his song Craven received media recognition from Country Thunder Saskatchewan which he performed at earlier this year.

Adam’s latest single, “Blame It On Me,” takes influence from his rock roots. Described as Bailey Zimmerman meets Nickelback, this scathing breakup song brings to mind “Before He Cheats” by Carrie Underwood, with raw relatable lyrics that anybody who has experienced a breakup can connect to. The rising country star will support his latest single with multiple shows across Canada, including Live, Laugh, Love Festival in Barrie, Ontario, alongside Meghan Patrick, Gord Bamford, and more.
