KEITH ROSS RELEASES NEW SINGLE “STAY” & TOUR

Critically-acclaimed Canadian singer, songwriter, and guitarist Leith Ross (They/Them Pronouns) unveils a new single “Stay” out now via Republic Records. The latest offering serves as the third single off their upcoming album, I Can See The Future, out September 19th and produced by GRAMMY® Award-winning artist, producer, and songwriter Rostam. Listen to “Stay” HERE and watch the official music video HERE.

On “Stay,” strains of soft piano and cinematic strings anchor a warm soundscape. Against this backdrop, Leith’s lush and lively vocals instantly transfix. The song picks up the pace on the back of a steady drumbeat, leading towards a heart-wrenching hook, “I’m choosing to believe that you’re gonna stay.”

About the single, Ross commented, “‘Stay’ is a song about actively seeking out and fostering community—learning to lean on human beings, both neighbors, friends, and strangers. It’s about realizing that all our struggles are connected and we must learn to rely on each other, or even more simply, just be with each other and provide for each other. The second half of the song is about the joy you get to experience when you succeed in that endeavor. Love and laughter and shared stories and good food. I hope it inspires you to make somebody dinner, or even just to give them grace.”

“Stay” arrives on the heels of the recently released title track “(I Can See) The Future” and “Grieving,” the first glimpse into Ross’s forthcoming body of work.

In addition to their upcoming new album, Ross will hit the road this fall on their headline “I Can See The Future” Tour across North America. Kicking off with two back-to-back hometown shows at Winnipeg’s The Park Theatre on October 17th and 18th, the tour will run through November and see Ross headline venues such as New York’s Brooklyn Steel on October 29th, Los Angeles’ El Rey Theatre on November 18th, and many more.

I Can See The Future signals a bold new chapter for Ross and is the follow-up to their Juno Award-nominated breakthrough debut album To Learn [2023] and its deluxe version To Learn, More [2023]. Released to widespread praise, NME declared them “a voice for their generation” and “Gen Z’s new favorite indie songwriter,” while The FADER described them as “your new obsession.” Thus far, they have impressively amassed over half-a-billion streams and counting, in addition to touring with the likes of Lord Huron, Bahamas, Andy Shauf, and Helena Deland, as well as selling out headline shows across the globe.
