"A gentle, sure-handed tunesmith with an innate feel for the shape of a pop song, Ron Sexsmith balances melancholy with hope, like a bruised soul summoning strength for one more attempt at happiness." ​ -Rolling Stone

Known for his insightful lyrics and distinctive voice, Sexsmith has collaborated with the likes of Daniel Lanois, Mitchell Froom, Ane Brun, Tchad Blake, and Bob Rock. His songwriting appears on albums from Rod Stewart, k.d. Lang, Nick Lowe, Emmylou Harris, Fiest and Michael Bublé. He has built a steadfast reputation with critics and some of his songwriting heroes ( Paul McCartney, Elton John, Ray Davies, John Prine, Gordon Lightfoot, Leonard Cohen, Elvis Costello, Chris Martin to name just a few) for his characteristically honest, sensitive and enduring approach to the songwriter craft which over the years has evolved into a unique and timeless blend of classic pop, contemporary folk and roots-rock idioms.
"With a songwriting style that's modest and often brilliant, Sexsmith creates music that’s delicately crafted, suffused with a kind of melancholic grace." ​ - The Guardian
Sexsmith has JUST released his album “Hangover Terrace,” on 18th, on August 29, 2025. The album title is a play on Hangover Terrace, the name of which tickled the fancy of Sexsmith’s drummer Don Kerr. He labelled it “Hangover Terrace”- “a lightbulb moment” for Sexsmith who snagged it for the title. The record produced by Martin Terefe includes 14 songs, marks a departure from his recent work.
“My last few albums actually had a feeling of rural contentment, “Hangover Terrace” feels more wounded to me,” says Sexsmith… “There's some self-examination going on and a desire to know who my real friends are. It also deals with the passing of time and how many more things become dear.”
Filmmaker Rod Arrowsmith made an acclaimed documentary in 2010 called ‘Love Shines’ which follows Sexsmith's as he embarks on an effort to achieve new commercial success with his 12th album.
