Josh Ross ‘Later Tonight’ – Debut Album Review

Josh Ross’ debut album, Later Tonight is out now, September 19th on all streaming platforms. Take a listen and read our full review below.

With a rugged voice that pairs gritty emotion with radio-friendly country music, Josh Ross is carving out his place in the genre, blending raw honesty with arena-ready energy. On his debut album, Later Tonight, the Canada native truly positions himself as a future superstar.

With a voice that’s equal parts emotive and rugged, he delivers songs that feel both deeply personal and universally relatable. “The title of this record, and the title track, became the thread that tied this project together over the last couple of years,” Ross revealed in a statement. “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.’”

Rather than writing every track himself, Ross enlisted a roster of Nashville’s best, including producer Matt Geroux along with the likes of Seth Ennis, Michael Tyler, Brad Rempel, Ryan Hurd, and more. Despite that, the 15-track collection still feels wholly authentic to his voice and perspective.

Heartbreak anchors much of the record, often colored by whiskey-soaked nights and on-again, off-again longing. From the opening notes of the album’s vibrant title track to the sparse and introspective closing track, “Scared of Getting Sober,” Ross is raw emotion and feeling.

Both “Break My Heart in Two” and “Songs You Gave Me” allow him to shine as an impassioned balladeer, each providing special moments on the LP. “Songs” finds him channeling his inner Kip Moore, an emotive rasp wrapping around each lyric of the heartbreak ballad. It’s sparse and introspective, a piano-driven ballad laced with longing as he sings about the muse behind the songs she inspired. 

“And now I’m standing here missing you // And all my dreams have been coming true // But I’m still breaking down right where you left me // Up here on stage, singing these songs you gave me”

The titular track is a vibrant pop-country anthem that’s followed immediately by the soaring and radio-ready “Hate How You Look.” “You wonder,” Ross says to Billboard of the song, “is it actually just going to be a mean song? Like, ‘I just hate how you look.’ And then you listen to it, you realize that it’s a guy that’s like, ‘Dang, she looks good,’ and you’re actually kind of complimenting her. I’m a fan of titles like that.”

Similar lyrical twists are commonplace on the album, crafty wordsmithing shining on songs like “Smith & Wesson,” “Whiskey You,” and the homage to on-again, off-again relationships, “Half Lit.”

“Leave Me Too” finds him grappling with a breakup, admitting “If I were you, I’d leave me too,” while “Mad at Me” finds him playfully musing, “Girl you’re only with him ‘cause you’re mad at me.” “My Side of Town” deals with breaking up in a small town. “‘My Side Of Town’ was pitched to me and immediately resonated,” Ross shares. “Small towns talk, and a lot of times, only one side of a two-sided story gets heard. This song is for anyone who’s lived that – myself included.”

“Drunk Right Now (Na Na Na)” is a dancefloor-ready anthem that mixes the best parts of country, pop, and dance. The tune is the most out of the box track on the album, aligning Ross with Akon in a way that is remnant of Maren Morris’ cross-genre collab with Zedd on “The Middle.”

“Akon’s music was always a huge part of my life growing up,” says Ross. “Having two older siblings, his songs were always playing—his sound, his hooks, everything about it just stuck with me before I even knew what the words meant. I’ve always been a fan. About a year ago, I was messing around in the studio and reimagined his song ‘Right Now,’ just for fun. We started playing it before our shows and the crowd went nuts—it turned into this wild country party anthem.”  

“I ended up sending it to him, not really expecting anything… and he actually loved it,” he continues. “He said he wanted to jump on it, and suddenly it turned into a real collab. It’s one of those full-circle moments I never saw coming and I’m truly grateful to have a summer party anthem.”

The album ends with the emotional one-two punch of  “Nobody from Nowhere” and “Scared of Getting Sober.” The former is a story song that has him dealing with a bit of imposter syndrome as he grapples with his own humility and others’ faith in him in light of his success, while the latter is a sparse and emotive heartbreak ballad.

With Later Tonight, Josh Ross proves he is not just a name to watch but an artist fully stepping into his moment. His debut blends clever lyricism, heartfelt ballads, and stadium-ready hooks, proving he’s ready to shine.

Dasha shares new song “Train,” out now, September 19th on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new track below.

As of late, Warner Records recording artist, Dasha is releasing her best music.

Today, she adds to her growing catalog of music with another new song. “Train” is out now.

Dasha’s new song, “Train” is as nostalgic as songs come. Feeling like an honest depiction of Dasha’s experiences, possibly right out of her diary, the new song still feels relatable. While things change, Dasha reminds us that the things that make us and our memories, and of course, when we make new memories in our new town, it’ll be just as beautiful.

“The neighbors said it’s nothing but //  The trains leaving the junction just // You wait a couple months and it’ll fade away // Time changes everything // You hang some pictures up and make // A habit out of taking the same way to the grocery store // You learn the turns and time the lights, the town you didn’t recognize // Becomes a little more like home // you’ll know when you’re  // Used to the license plates // And you gotta a couple friends next door // Wake up and realize one day // That you don’t hear the train anymore”

Dasha continues to prove why she’s an artist to look out for. “Train” is another great addition to her growing music catalog.

“‘It’s now or never, boy don’t you slow down’ // Another ninety miles south of a nowhere town // Prolly crash and burn just ain’t sure when // But we sold thousand tickets, better turn it up to ten // Me and this 6-string been puttin’ in work // Ol’ number 7 just to settle my nerves // This black top been kickin’ my ass // Got ninety minutes make ’em love me back // Goin zero to a hundred, and I ain’t comin’ down yet, down yet // That 5AM sunrise lookin’ like sunset, sunset // Wouldn’t trade this life for nothin’ or another // But my nights are long, and my days are numbered”

“Days Are Numbered” is one of Mason’s best songs to date! The track will leave fans even more excited for the upcoming album. If Mason’s not on your radar yet, what are you doing?!

Lanie Gardner: ‘Faded Polaroids’ – Album Review

Lanie Gardner shares her new album, Faded Polaroids, officially out now, September 5th on all streaming platforms. Learn more and listen to the new album below.

Since arriving on the country music scene, Lanie Gardner has carved her own lane as a singer-songwriter in the genre. She creates music that is unapologetically her, while pairing honest storytelling lyrics with thoughtful melodies and arrangements. Her recent EP, polaroids set the stage for her incredible sophomore album, Faded Polaroids, out today.

“I created the idea of Faded Polaroids using actual polaroids. Some brand new, others nicotine-stained, withered, torn and worn from being passed down through the years,” shared Gardner in a recent press release. “It felt like zooming out on my whole life and finally seeing the bigger picture. These snapshots — these songs — are the most beautiful parts of me. They tell the story of where I come from, who I come from, what I’ve learned and who I’m becoming. I hope these songs encourage people to take the time to make their own version of that too. I think it’s important that we all do.”

Faded Polaroids intentionally features eighteen songs including the six off the previously released EP. Opening up with “Takin’ The Slow Ride,” Gardner invites listeners to enjoy life’s simplest moments. Like many of her songs, such as “Mama’s Kitchen Table” and “Love You Like Appalachia”, the songstress pays homage to her home state of North Carolina and takes fans on a journey to appreciate her home-state’s beauty.

The record as a whole seamlessly blends genre, drawing on inspiration from Gardner’s rock and folk influences. Full of unfiltered anthems like, “Boot Down”, “Jeans,” and “Ur Mad,” this songstress sings her truth. On the latter, “Ur Mad,” Gardner brings the confidence and cements that she will not apologize for who she is.

While Faded Polaroids is full of thoughtful anthems, it also has deep moments of personal healing and self-discovery. On “Daddy Didn’t,” Gardner explores and opens up about her relationship with her father, allowing fans an inside look into her upbringing. Similarly on the title track, the singer-songwriter takes a sentimental look-back at moments in time, a true culmination of photographs that make up her story.

Each and every song off Faded Polaroids is purposeful and personal, yet relatable. Gardner has found a way to weave her true experiences into a beautiful work of art, something that fans will find themselves in again and again. Faded Polaroids is a record you are going to want to come back to again and again. Gardner outdid her self on the project.
