Josh Ross

At the crossroads of contemporary country and pop, Canadian artist Josh Ross crafts songs centered on intimate narratives, breakups, and small-town memories. Originally from Ontario and now based in Nashville, Ross first came from the world of collegiate sports before pivoting to music, cutting his teeth on local stages and shuttling between Canada and Tennessee. The release of the single “First Taste of Gone” marked a turning point, positioning Ross as a rising country voice built on melodic ballads and live-ready choruses. Signed to Universal Music Canada in partnership with Big Loud, he followed with tracks like “On A Different Night,” “Trouble,” and “Ain’t Doin’ Jack,” confirming a writing style that blends classic storytelling with pop-rock-leaning structures. On stage, Ross brings his songs to life across North American country venues and festivals, opening for established artists with a guitar-driven band setup and a focus on collective energy.
