Carousel One is the fourteenth studio album by Canadian musician Ron Sexsmith. It was released in March 2015 under Compass Records. The title is a reference to the luggage retrieval belt at Los Angeles airport where bags from flights from Toronto are delivered.[4]

Critical reception

Kyle Mullin of Exclaim! praised Sexsmith's notably more upbeat sound and attitude on the record, writing that his "days of being pigeonholed as a sad sack are long gone."[3]
