Critical reception edit
Jared Majeski of Canadian Online Explorer gave the album a positive review. He calls the album "a very personal and intimate look into Bamford's life." He goes on to say that Bamford "sings about his parents, his past and his passions. With the recent birth of his first child, Bamford's life isn't just good - it's great."[1]
