Ron Sexsmith - Streaming music on CBC Radio
http://music.cbc.ca/#/artists/Ron-Sexsmith
For some reason it took me years to finally sit down and give a good listen to Ron Sexsmith. Maybe I didn't get it before, or maybe I was being stubborn and intentionally avoiding it. Either way it's been my loss. I find his songs to be old and new at the same time. Familiar chord progressions with unfamiliar melodies. Give the CBC playlist a listen and find out for yourself!
Top Tracks: Cheap Hotel, Never Been Done, Just My Heart Talkin'
I actually met Ron Sexsmith at a Fucked Up show a couple of years ago (Halloween night). He was with two women who were dressed up like him. Creepy AND awesome.
Dine Alone Summer Sampler - Free Download
I've been listening to songs from this sampler a ton lately. All of the songs are good, but not all great. I've put a list of my favourite tracks below. You can stream the entire album and download it through the link below. It's almost fall but I think these tracks will suit it perfectly.
