Josh Ross had one heck of a 2023.

The Canadian singer/songwriter signed with UMG Nashville, released new music, and hit the road with Nickelback, and Bailey Zimmerman.

Since he’s been touring so much this year, he’s barely spent any time at home, so he’s looking forward to having several days with his family.

“This year’s been a really exciting year with touring and releasing new music and being on the road. I haven’t really got to spend a lot of days at home especially in a row, so I get to go home home, which will be Ontario, Canada, and spend time with Mom, Dad, grandparents, brother and sisters and nieces and nephews and just kind of catch up on all of the things that I kind of got to miss this year. Luckily, I have Facetime and stuff like that, but actually being there with them is going to be great.”

“The Grinch” was one of Josh’s favourite Christmas movies growing up, and he has a personal connection to the film.

“It’s funny, The Grinch was one of my favourite movies, and that was one that I watched, and I got to fill people in, I was like, ‘Well, my mom used to date ‘The Grinch.’’ And everybody was like, ‘Wait! What do you mean?’ And my mom’s boyfriend in high school was Jim Carrey. So, it’s kind of a cool, I guess, fun fact that most people would not know is he grew up in Burlington, Ontario and went to Aldershot High School, and he was my mom’s ninth grade, or freshman year, boyfriend.”

Josh will kick off his headlining trek, The Trouble Tour, on January 12th in Winnipeg, Canada and will continue throughout the year, interspersed between dates on the Bailey Zimmerman Religiously The Tour.
