C.ROSS Returns with Future Site of C.ROSS, Out October 22 on Echodelick Records
Canadian singer and guitarist C.ROSS (Chad Ross) has announced his new solo record Future Site of C.ROSS, out October 22nd, 2025 on Atlanta’s Echodelick Records.
Ross has long been a fixture in Canada’s psych and indie-rock underground. Known as the singer/guitarist for heavy psych rockers Quest for Fire (Tee Pee Records), space rock explorers Comet Control (Tee Pee), and as a member of the legendary garage rock band The Deadly Snakes (In The Red), Ross has also toured internationally with Vancouver’s Pink Mountaintops and released acoustic-driven solo work as Nordic Nomadic (Blue Fog, Tee Pee).
On Future Site of C.ROSS, Ross leans deeper into his unique blend of fuzzy psych-folk and cosmic rock, pairing raw songwriting with expansive production. The 7-song album was recorded, produced, and mixed by Joshua Wells (Destroyer, Lightning Dust, Black Mountain) at The Mango Pit in Chicago, with Wells also contributing drums and keys. Additional recording and production were handled by Ross in Muskoka, Ontario. Guest musicians include Aaron Goldstein (pedal steel) and Eiyn Sof (backing vocals).
“I started working on the songs for this record right after Skull Creator was released in 2022,” says Ross. “The tail end of the pandemic was on the horizon and I was still in hermit mode with my acoustic guitar, living in the woods in Ontario with my family. This is the second record I’ve done with Josh Wells. I flew down to Chicago with a handful of acoustic songs and we managed to put everything together rather quickly at his studio. We worked at it over a year, sending ideas back and forth from Chicago to my studio in Ontario. What transpired was a really nice extension of the first record.”
With echoes of Judee Sill, Duke Garwood, Syd Barrett, and Dead Meadow, Future Site of C.ROSS is both grounded and cosmic – balancing fuzzed-out riffs, pedal steel textures, and delicate acoustics.
The lead single “Plant Your Eyes” is described by Ross as:
“…about the things your eyes can’t see. The constant vibration of the unknown. It’s kind of this absurd idea that your eyes can be thought of as seeds, that grow colourful light. I tried to channel some deep Crazy Horse fuzzed-out riffage and some delicate acoustics – all the ingredients for a healthy garden.”
Ross has long been a fixture in the Canadian underground music scene. He co-founded the heavy psych rock band Quest for Fire in 2007 with Andrew Moszynski, releasing two albums on Tee Pee Records before the group disbanded in 2013.
After Quest for Fire, Ross formed Comet Control in 2013, where he continues to serve as guitarist and vocalist. Comet Control has released multiple records via Tee Pee Records, carrying forward Ross’s vision of psychedelic rock with both atmospheric and melodic leanings.
Earlier in his career, Ross was a member of The Deadly Snakes, a Toronto garage-rock band known for their energetic live shows and releases on In the Red Records.
Ross has also explored more acoustic, introspective territory under the solo name Nordic Nomadic, releasing albums through Blue Fog and Tee Pee Records.
In addition to his own projects, he has toured as a member of Vancouver’s Pink Mountaintops, contributing to their live performances and further expanding his presence in Canada’s psych and indie rock scenes.
