Josh Ross Releases Soul-Searching Country- Rock Track "Leave Me Too"
Josh Ross, the Canadian country singer-songwriter, has kicked off 2025 with the release of his latest single, "Leave Me Too", through The Core Entertainment/Universal Music Canada Inc. on February 14, 2025. This new track is a soul-searching anthem that delves into the complexities of past relationships.
Ross explains "This track reflects on past relationships, acknowledging moments of being difficult to love and understanding why someone chose to walk away." This introspective approach aligns with Ross's knack for emotional songcraft, which has been a hallmark of his rising career.
The release of "Leave Me Too" follows a plethora of recent accolades, including five JUNO Award nominations for Album of the Year, Artist of the Year, Single of the Year, Country Album of The Year, and JUNO Fan Choice. Notably, Ross is the first country artist to be a top JUNO nominee in over a decade, highlighting his significant impact on the Canadian music scene.
Ross's musical journey began in Burlington, Ontario, where he was exposed to a diverse range of musical influences. Growing up, he listened to both country and rock music, citing Steve Earle as one of his biggest musical inspirations.
Since embarking on his music career, Ross has achieved remarkable success. His dusky power ballad "Trouble" reached #1 in Canada and earned RIAA Gold certification in the U.S. He has amassed over 970.5 million global streams and was recently honored with his first-ever CMA Award – the Jeff Walker Global Country Artist Award.
Ross's musical style is characterized by a blend of modern country rock, warm vocal rasp, and heart-on-his-sleeve writing. He draws influence from a wide range of artists, including Guns N' Roses, Metallica, and country-rock outlaw Steve Earle. This diverse musical background contributes to his unique sound that respects no borders – genre or otherwise.
Looking ahead, Ross has hinted that "Leave Me Too" marks the beginning of an exciting project he'll be working on throughout the year. Fans can expect more new music and live performances, as Ross continues to tour and perform at various festivals. He will be supporting Jelly Roll on The Beautifully Broken Great Northern Tour across Canada in March 2025.
