The singer also shared more about his latest single release, 'Because of You', saying that this "soul-bearing" release is igniting a new musical chapter.

'Because of You', released on 26 April 2024, departs from his previous endeavours and showcases his stripped-down, raw musicality.

The single delves into themes of self-discovery and personal empowerment, says the singer.

Sometimes, people get so caught up in fighting their demons and personal battles that they get lost and overwhelmed and find it difficult to break through and shed light. This song is from the perspective of the other side, trying to break through and show someone their true value.

2023 was a massive year for Learmonth as he released his highly-anticipated debut solo album, 'Carousel'.

Ross really came into his own as a solo artist, and the stamp of approval was a successful tour that took place this past summer.

Looking ahead, this next phase in Ross' solo journey promises to be an exciting one, with international shows secured in Dubai, London, and the Isle of Man, as well as potential dates in Australia and New Zealand alongside Arno Carstens and Ard Matthews.
