EARNING x6 CCMA NODS, ROSS CO-LEADS THE 2025 CCMA AWARD NOMINATIONS

“SINGLE AGAIN” IS #2-AND-CLIMBING AT US COUNTRY RADIO

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 worldwide ascent.

From the addictive bent of U.S. Radio #2-and-climbing single “Single Again”, to double-edged early releases “Hate How You Look”, and “Leave Me Too” that peaked #2 at Canadian Country radio, Ross’ raw admissions shed light on the endless possibilities of what could happen, Later Tonight.

“The title of this record, and the title track, became the thread that tied this project together over the last couple of years,” Ross says. “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.’”

In tandem with the announcement, the reigning CCMA Entertainer of the Year also gives fans the title track of the album “Later Tonight” now – listen HERE.

Yesterday, Ross earned 6 CCMA nominations, tying with Cameron Whitcomb as this year’s most-nominated artist. His nominations include Fans’ Choice Award presented by Bud Light, Male Artist of the Year, Entertainer of the Year, Video of the Year, Single of the Year, and Musical Collaboration of the Year.
