Critical reception
Writing for No Depression, John Amen described Future Soul as "ambitious in scope and easy-going in tone".[6] Americana Highways wrote in their review of the album that it "stands as a testament not just to musical excellence but to what’s possible when two people build something together over decades. This is what power couples do when they’re working: they lift each other up, celebrate each other’s gifts, and invite the rest of us into what they’ve made".[7]
