Ron Sexsmith started his first band at age 14. After moving to Toronto he formed the Uncool and released his cassette Out of the Duff, and a year later, There's a Way. Meanwhile, Ron Sexsmith worked as a courier, and released Grand Opera Lane in 1991. On the strength of this album he earned a contract which led to the self-titled album of 1995. Between 1997 and 2001, Ron Sexsmith released three more albums before the acclaimed Cobblestone Runway in 2002. Retriever, a more pop-oriented album than those before, is dedicated to Elliott Smith and Johnny Cash.
