“Sexsmith is a (Canadian) songwriter with a gift for an instantly seductive pop/folk/rock melody, a facile way with a lyrical narrative and the ability to produce really charming and sometimes deeply poignant turns-of-phrase” - THE CINCH REVIEW

“When Sexsmith sings, he rarely places a note squarely on the beat. He eases into it a little ahead of time, or hesitates and lets it drift in late like a wallflower trying to slip into a party unnoticed” - John Pareles THE NEW YORK TIMES

"Melody remains the convulsive life-giving heart.You lose that, a tune withers facedown. Ron Sexsmith understands this point better than most every singer/songwriter working today” - Jason Killingsworth PASTE

“Sexsmith has an incredible gift for pop melodies, and his voice is an unassuming croon that slides up and down to notes with graceful ease. He also just doesn't strum the guitar, he makes it sing. In short, he's an endangered species” - Marshall York SALON
