The group's self-titled debut album received "ecstatic reviews".[15] Pitchfork reviewer Laura Snapes noted its strong musicianship and use of natural imagery.[12] Snapes acknowledged comparisons to the 1987 album Trio from Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, and Emmylou Harris, but said that unlike Trio it was unlikely to be followed up with a second album,[12] and lang herself called it a "one-off record".[16] Writing for Exclaim!, Sarah Greene lauded the album, calling it "profound, passionate and substantial."[17] Andy Gill at The Independent called it "an album of rare beauty and intelligence" also noting "elemental reflections" in some of the lyrics.[9] Production by Tucker Martine, Veirs's spouse, was lauded by Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune as "[giving] each song exactly what it needs", also noting the singers attained an "organic feel to the union that would raise it above the usually mediocre (or worse) level of most such hey-let's-get-together-and-jam all-star collaborations".[7]
