Critical reception

Taste of Country reviewed "Trouble" favorably, saying that "the song is sassier than anything they’ve come with previously — the group look to be all-in with Reinert in charge."[3] Kevin John Coyne of Country Universe gave the song a "B−", writing that "the male cheerleader section shows up about halfway through trouble, breaking the mood in a song that had done a decent job establishing tension, thanks to a sparser than usual production and a bluesy vocal from lead vocalist Rachel Reinert."[4]
