Critical reception

Specifying in a 7.8 out of ten review by Paste, Hilary Saunders recognizes, the album "combine[s] those experiences of pragmatism and idealism, crafting a brand of country-tinged folk pop that balances artistic integrity with measured commerciality." Alex "Tincan" Caldwell, indicating in a four star review from Jesus Freak Hideout, realizes, the album has "these scrappy, down-home tunes might not be for everyone, but if you are up for some unvarnished, soulful songwriting at its best". Anthony Peronto, highlighting in a five star review from Indie Vision Music, refers, "Medicine is the perfect remedy." Writing for Contactmusic.com in a three out of five review, Ruth Buxton-Cook reports, the album "will certainly cure the monotony of life with its rich, sentimental vibe and smooth folksy rhythm."
