Francois Marchand of The Vancouver Sun gave the album four and a half stars out of five, writing that "Gypsy Road is one of the finest Canadian country albums released in recent years, and even if country ain’t really your thang, you should get a kick out of this one." Bruce Leperre of the Winnipeg Free Press gave the album four stars out of five, calling it Brody's "most satisfying offering yet."
In its debut week, the album peaked at number seven on the Canadian Albums Chart, selling 2,700 copies.[3]
