Find out why September is officially ‘Josh Ross’ month!

Josh Ross continues to make waves as his single ‘Hate How You Look' claims the #1 most-added spot at country radio this week. The track, penned by Nicholas Sainato, Chris McKenna, Jessica Farren, and Christian Yancey and produced by Matt Geroux, has earned acclaim for its clever twist and toe-tapping melody. MusicRow described it as a single that ‘soars right along with Ross’s powerful delivery,' while Billboard praised its ‘relentlessly melodic chorus.'

Ross shared his excitement: “Wild. Thank you to country radio, and everyone who’s listening to ‘Hate How You Look.’ To follow up ‘Single Again’ with a song I love and this kind of support is special; I don’t take a bit of it for granted.”

Beyond radio success, Ross is gearing up to release his debut full-length album ‘Later Tonight' on September 19 via MCA, Mercury Nashville, Universal Music Canada, and CORE Records. The 15-track album, produced by his longtime collaborator Matt Geroux, continues the emotive, rock-tinged country that has defined his rise. Pre-order / pre-save here.
