Critical reception

edit

Rating it 3 out of 5 stars, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic wrote that "Frivolity doesn't weigh heavily on Dickerson's mind, but Southern Symphony has a bright, shiny gloss that suggests it's a party. The production is so slick that the deeper emotions Dickerson attempts don't quite stick, yet the album is ingratiating due to his unassuming, friendly touch and its relentless smoothness."[2]
