Critical reception
Robert L. Doerschuk of AllMusic wrote that the band's "collective sound is seamless, spirited, and predictable[…]and their songs reflect all the attributes of commercial country." Country Standard Time reviewer Brian Baker was more positive, saying that he did not consider the band's sound country in nature but adding, "Sixwire makes great pop music that occasionally offers up the sonic touchstones of country[…]and they sell it all with truly impressive vocal harmonies."
