Josh Ross: A Musical Journey Inspired by Country Stars Dierks Bentley, Jelly Roll, and Nickelback
Josh Ross, a Canadian singer/songwriter, found inspiration in meeting country music stars like Dierks Bentley, Jelly Roll, and Nickelback. Bentley, in particular, had a significant impact on Ross, as he was one of the first artists Ross saw in concert and admired. The two finally met earlier this year at a Universal Music Group event during Country Radio Seminar 2025. Ross was impressed by Bentley's authenticity and shared love for the outdoors, which inspired him to find a better balance between his music career and nature.
Ross also learned valuable life lessons from touring with Jelly Roll and Nickelback. He admired Jelly Roll's ability to turn life lessons into powerful music and Nickelback's longevity in the industry, teaching him the importance of patience and steady growth. These experiences have shaped Ross's career and contributed to the success of his debut album, "Later Tonight," featuring tracks like "Single Again" and "Hate How You Look."
Looking ahead, Ross has exciting plans for the future, including joining Dylan Scott for U.S. tour dates, headlining shows in London, and embarking on his own Canadian tour in 2026. Each opportunity allows Ross to continue growing as an artist and solidifying his presence in the music industry.
