Russell Johnston is a coastal folk-rock / Americana artist based on the Oregon Coast, living on the cliffs above Lighthouse Beach. His life follows a simple, rugged rhythm: writing songs, playing shows, traveling, surfing, tattooing, and surf instructing. That lived-in, hands-on lifestyle is woven directly into his music, which blends rugged acoustic energy with honest, soul-driven storytelling. Drawing influence from artists like Zach Bryan, Ben Howard, and Pearl Jam, Russell's live shows feature powerful originals and crowd-favorite covers delivered with a raw, high-energy, and deeply human presence that connects with any room.
