Background

In a press release, Allday said, "Drinking with My Smoking Friends is about escaping something and finding something new, whether that's a place, a relationship or something else."[1]

Critical reception

Drinking with My Smoking Friends received critical acclaim.[2]

Poppy Reid from Rolling Stone Australia said "In a world starved of human connection mid-pandemic, where even the simplest comforts are compromised, Drinking with My Smoking Friends reminds us to bathe in our own delicious weariness. It's Gaynor's most unguarded album yet, a landmark of breezy sophistication."[3]
