(MCA) Josh Ross releases "Bar And Back", his first new music in 2026. On the new release, Ross shares, "'Bar And Back' is about that moment when you realize that you're feeling something deeper than the other person... between the back and forth and desire for something real and lasting. A place a lot of us have found ourselves at one point or another."
With nearly 1.3 billion global streams and only one full-length album to date, "Bar And Back" marks the beginning of a major year ahead for the multi-platinum country artist. Earlier this week, Ross earned four nominations at the 2026 JUNO Awards, including JUNO Fan Choice, Single of the Year for "Hate How You Look", Album of the Year, and Country Album of the Year for Later Tonight.
Released last September, Ross' highly anticipated full-length debut album Later Tonight was produced by longtime collaborator Matt Geroux who also helmed Ross's JUNO Award-winning EP Complicated, the 15-track collection doubles down on the emotive, rock-tinged country that has defined his world-dominating ascent. Debuting at #5 on the Current Country Album Sales chart in the U.S., and #1 on the Canadian Country Albums chart, Later Tonight made a splash upon release, with 11 million on-demand streams in its first week alone.
Next week, Ross will kick off his 17-date Canadian headline run, Bud Light Presents Later Tonight Tour across Canada starting February 6, with direct support from Chandler Walters. In addition to his headline tour, Ross was just announced as direct support for Nate Smith's Long Live Country Rock & Roll 2026 Tour.
