We are delighted to announce that DIV 005 is the 2002 album from this massively underrated artist.
“Ron Sexsmith has been raved about by other musicians, his songs have been covered by Rod Stewart and Elton John, yet his career is still struggling to lift off. Now his 15-year marriage has also fallen apart – but at least Sexsmith has been able to reach deep into his well of despond for his best album yet. This new sonic palate gives modern life to his classy tales of blown chances, cruel luck and crueller love. The predominant mood is bittersweet, but there is a determined optimism in lines like “Sometimes you’ve gotta lose to win” and in the pleas for peace articulated in God Loves Everyone. The bubbly, optimistic Gold in Them Hills, featuring Coldplay’s Chris Martin, offers the best shot of bringing Sexsmith to the attention of a cruel world that probably doesn’t deserve him.” The Guardian
