Critical reception
Marlo Ashley of Exclaim! rated the EP seven-out-of-ten, writing that it "is genre-defying, pushing boundaries by taking new country into more alternative territory" and that the collection "encourages many replays, and should reach audiences from dance to pop-rock and country-pop; it's irresistible."[11]
