    Comments Off on Josh Ross

    Universal Music Canada / MCA artist Josh Ross is a global force; a next-generation talent who’s anything but standard. On an unconventional path of his own design, Ross pairs a dark and mellow blast of modern country with a warm vocal rasp and rock inclinations, heart-on-his-sleeve songwriting and addictive hooks that heed no borders. Pulling from a wide range of musical influences, the former collegiate football player has leveraged his knack for emotional song craft into a series of certified hits.

    His dusky power ballad “Trouble” rose to #1 in Canada, earning Double Platinum certification in Canada and RIAA Gold certification in the U.S. The track also introduced what would become his 2024, 8-song EP, Complicated, which earned Ross his first-ever JUNO Award in 2025 for Country Album of the Year. On September 19, Ross doubles down on the emotive, rock-tinged country that has defined his worldwide ascent releasing his full-length debut album, Later Tonight. The album will include U.S. Radio #1 “Single Again” as well as recently released title track “Later Tonight”, “Hate How You Look”, and “Leave Me Too.”

    Canada-born and Nashville-based, the reigning 2024 CCMA Entertainer of the Year, 6x 2025 CCMA Award nominee, and winner of the 2024 CMA Jeff Walker Global Country Artist Award tallies over 1 billion streams, touring alongside hard-rocking, cross-genre superstars like Nickelback, Brantley Gilbert, Bailey Zimmerman, and Luke Bryan.

    Bear Grease reimagines the iconic 1971 musical Grease through a bold and comedic native lens.

    The Strumbellas know that misery loves company, and that if we’re together, even in dark times, there’s some joy in that. Their songs of suffering and celebration date back to their 2012 debut My Father And The Hunter, and the band have obsessively chased big hooks, group vocal exuberance, and folk-rock propulsion through their 2016 breakthrough Hope to 2024’s Part Time Believer. The Juno and iHeartRadio Music Award-winning group’s new song Hard Lines gives listeners an urgent, new take on their iconic mix of intimate feelings with stadium folk sounds.
