Melissa Redman from Renowned for Sound said; "His vocals in all songs are effortless and this makes the album all the more enjoyable to listen to. The topics and issues covered in these tracks are a breath of fresh air. From the thrill of infatuation in "I Wanna Go", a manifesto on life in "Childhood Heart" and a dream of a better world in "All in This Together", Evans creates songs that are relatable for a vast demographic of people." adding "Morgan Evans is a great first album. Many of the songs are upbeat and will easily lift your spirits with its guitar heavy, country tunes."
