One of Canada’s most promising new country artists, Josh Stumpf, returns with his highly anticipated new single “Nobody Roads”.
The release follows the breakout success of Stumpf’s “Highway Money,” which has been holding steady in the Top 10 at Canadian country radio for over six weeks. With momentum building fast, “Nobody Roads” finds Stumpf leaning into the raw, emotional storytelling that has quickly become his signature.
“This song really hits home for me,” shares Stumpf. “I’ve definitely taken myself out to a dirt road in the middle of nowhere to clear my head and work through things. It’s a place where no one can find you; you can kick up some dust, blow off steam, and just breathe without judgment or causing any trouble. Those dirt road drives in my truck have always been such a therapeutic escape, and being able to capture that feeling in a song is really special.”
At just 22, Stumpf is proving he’s a force to watch. With over 2.2 million global streams to date, “Highway Money” marked Stumpf’s debut release with MDM Recordings Inc. and introduced a sound that fuses outlaw country grit, 80s two-step swagger, and heartfelt country rock into something distinctly his own. Named Emerging Artist of the Year at the 2024 Saskatchewan Country Music Awards, Stumpf’s raw honesty and genre-blending sound are cementing his place as one of the most exciting new voices in Canadian country. Beyond his musical achievements, Stumpf remains committed to his roots as co-founder of the Sunset Country Music Festival, a grassroots Saskatchewan event dedicated to giving back to the local community.
