Josh Ross To Release New Album Septmber 19
Josh Ross is set to release his full-length debut album “Later Tonight” on Friday, September 19.
The album was produced by longtime collaborator Matt Geroux, who also helmed Ross’s JUNO Award-winning EP Complicated.
“The title of this record, and the title track, became the thread that tied this project together over the last couple of years. Every single we put out, every show we’ve played has led to this. We dug deep writing for this album, leaning into getting caught in your feelings, breaking up, making up. No matter what, all roads led back to ‘Later Tonight.’”
The album will feature 15 tracks, and Ross talked about writing them.
“You know, I work good under deadlines and pressure in regards to like submitting stuff, but I also get like super frustrated and I’m like one of those people when people are like, this has to be done by now. I’m like, no, it doesn’t. You know, like I get kind of against the grain on things and uh yeah, just really to be completely honest, I’m one those people once I turn songs in, I don’t listen to them again. Yesterday was the first time that I had listened to the record since I submitted it three or four months ago. um And I just… uh, it’s like a chapter of my life has been completed and I get to go ship it off and hope for the best. So for me it would definitely be a relief. I feel like it’s not like a not positive weight, but there’s a weight of getting everything done and obviously still until the release date I’ll have a little bit of that. But now I’m excited. I’ve already started to write just for fun and it’s not for a project, it’s just to write again and see where that leads.”
Ross also announced the Later Tonight Tour across Canada with special guest Chandler Walters in 2026. It includes a stop at Centennial Hall in London on February 20.
