John Kristjan Samson (born 1973) is a Canadian musician from Winnipeg, Manitoba. He is a singer-songwriter and best known as the frontman of the Canadian indie folk/rock band The Weakerthans, who are self-described as "cryogenically frozen. He also played bass in the punk band Propagandhi during the mid-1990s. Today, Samson is making music under his own name - John K. Samson. His latest solo album, Winter Wheat, was released in 2016. Samson is married to Canadian singer-songwriter Christine Fellows.

Provincial Road 222 is the second in the series and as much as it pains me to say this one just doesn’t hit the mark his previous Rural Route 65 EP did. This 3 song EP starts with a beautiful song and the only highlight of the short album; The Last And self described by Samson as being written about a relationship very similar to Principal Skinner and Miss Krabappel from the Simpsons, only in this case Principal Skinner is married and the school is in a small town in Manitoba. I know this because I was lucky enough to see him perform a live solo show where he played this song and talked.

Provincial Road 222 is an EP by Canadian musician John K. Samson, released on September 21, 2010. The song "Petition" recites the text of Samson's online petition to induct Reggie Leach, a native of Riverton, into the Hockey Hall of Fame. Samson formally presented the petition to the HHOF in 2013.

Provincial is the debut solo album by John K. Samson, released January 24, 2012 on ANTI- Track listing.

John K. Samson's latest solo EP, Provincial Road 222, starts the same as so many of his other works, both solo and with the Weakerthans: unassuming guitar; the pleading voice of Samson; and unintrusive backgrounds. The first two songs grow, then, in the style that is so distinctly his. From the delightfully artistic (yet unceasingly enigmatic) lyrics to the simple, repetitious guitar chords, John K. Samson is back and as alluring as ever, though the near-absolute perfection reached on almost every other release of his leaves this great EP feeling just a touch disappointing.
