Josh Ross had one heck of a 2023.<\/p>\n
The Canadian singer\/songwriter signed with UMG Nashville, released new music, and hit the road with Nickelback, and Bailey Zimmerman.<\/p>\n
Since he\u2019s been touring so much this year, he\u2019s barely spent any time at home, so he\u2019s looking forward to having several days with his family.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year\u2019s been a really exciting year with touring and releasing new music and being on the road. I haven\u2019t really got to spend a lot of days at home especially in a row, so I get to go home home, which will be Ontario, Canada, and spend time with Mom, Dad, grandparents, brother and sisters and nieces and nephews and just kind of catch up on all of the things that I kind of got to miss this year. Luckily, I have Facetime and stuff like that, but actually being there with them is going to be great.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
“The Grinch” was one of Josh’s favourite Christmas movies growing up, and he has a personal connection to the film.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s funny, The Grinch was one of my favourite movies, and that was one that I watched, and I got to fill people in, I was like, \u2018Well, my mom used to date \u2018The Grinch.\u2019\u2019 And everybody was like, \u2018Wait! What do you mean?\u2019 And my mom\u2019s boyfriend in high school was Jim Carrey. So, it\u2019s kind of a cool, I guess, fun fact that most people would not know is he grew up in Burlington, Ontario and went to Aldershot High School, and he was my mom\u2019s ninth grade, or freshman year, boyfriend.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Josh will kick off his headlining trek, The Trouble Tour, on January 12th in Winnipeg, Canada and will continue throughout the year, interspersed between dates on the Bailey Zimmerman Religiously The Tour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Josh Ross had one heck of a 2023.","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":25436,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[43,3149],"class_list":["post-27581","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-country-music-news","tag-christmas","tag-josh-ross"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-12 16:45:31","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/country959.com\/blogs\/country-music-news\/2023\/12\/josh-ross-mom-used-to-date-the-grinch\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27581","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27581"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27581\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27583,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27581\/revisions\/27583"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25436"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27581"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27581"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27581"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
