Canada’s most accomplished singer-songwriter, Ron Sexsmith has returned with new music. The single, “You Don’t Wanna Hear It” is the first single from his forthcoming album HERMITAGE, Ron’s first album since his move from his longtime home of Toronto to a more bucolic life in Stratford, Ontario. Ron partnered with producer Don Kerr to create HERMITAGE; the two set up in Ron’s living room to record the album, with Ron playing all the instruments except the drums. This album marks Ron’s 25th year as a recording artist.
Describing the new single Ron says, “It’s a song about someone who has their nose all out of joint about something and are not in the mood to hear the truth.”
In addition to the new music, Ron will be heading out on a Canadian tour in May of 2020. The 7-date run will bring him from Victoria to Ottawa, with stops in Vancouver, Calgary, Saskatoon, Winnipeg and Toronto. For the full details see below or visit ronsexsmith.com.
