Tryg Johnson is a musician, teacher, and performer from Minneapolis, MN. He can play many instruments including guitar, drums, vocals, piano, bass, banjo, and ukulele. Most notably, he is identifiable by his trademark hat. 

​

He has worked with producers such as Steve Southerland, Dex Barstad and Will Fritscher, and with the bands Her Wave, Tryg Johnson & the Renaissance, and Crust. He was an opener for Cory Medina & The Brothers on a midwest tour. He also opened for The Time at a Prince tribute concert at the Minnesota Music Cafe. 

 

Most of his current work is recorded in a local studio he built with his bandmate/friend Wesley Carlson, and has recorded in studios such as Winterland.

 

Though he specializes in blues guitar, Tryg is a versatile musician who can work his way around pretty much any instrument you throw at him.
