Production[]
The album was mostly produced by Johnny Slate.[5]
Critical reception[]
Country Standard Time wrote that the album "borders far more towards a generic, pop-sounding brand of country."[6] Exclaim! thought that "the harmonies are their stock in trade and each track is expertly produced - riding that fine line between overly slick and heartfelt."[7]
