American Songwriter reviewer Hal Horowitz applauded the music, regarding it as "a rock/country hybrid that's more visceral than, well, country/rock, and hits harder too". On the other hand, Robert Christgau lamented "the production here: Nashville rock at its bigged-up schlockiest, with McBryde belting to match", but applauded the songwriting as "compact", engaging, and "so sharp it gives her the right to belt: lyrically not one of the 11 tracks is merely passable". Jonathan Bernstein from Rolling Stone similarly praised the lyrics, calling McBryde "one of country's sharpest truth-tellers". ===Accolades=== ==Track listing== ==Personnel== Adapted from AllMusic Blue Foley - background vocals Jason Hall- background vocals Chris Harris - acoustic guitar, mandolin, background vocals Matt Helmkamp - electric guitar, background vocals Quinn Hill - drums, percussion, background vocals Jay Joyce - Farfisa organ, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, keyboards, piano, programming, background vocals Jimmy Mansfield - background vocals Ashley McBryde - acoustic guitar, electric guitar, lead vocals, background vocals Chris Sancho - bass guitar, background vocals Trick Savage - background vocals Dan Smalley - background vocals ==Charts== ==References==
