"Every Acre sounds like a classic singer/songwriter session of the 1970s, only filtered through the heart and mind of a woman living in the 2020s with her own stories to tell about isolation, grief, survival, need, and all the stuff of grown-up lives. McEntire also happens to possess a voice that suggests she could be Dolly Parton's niece who moved to the big city, lacking Parton's sweetness but doubling down on her strength and unflinching honesty".

"Med sit tredje, stærke soloalbum på fem år er H.C. McEntire ved at opbygge et seriøst livsværk i randområdet mellem country og rootsrock ... 'Every Acre' er alle anstrengelser værd, men jeg griber mig selv i at ønske, at McEntire kunne slippe sig selv en lille smule mere løs melodisk ... H.C. McEntire synger og skriver med intens poesi, men det er næsten lige ved at blive for alvorligt".

"Tightly-plotted at 37 minutes long, ['Every Acre'] finds space for guest voices - Kentuckian singer S.G. Goodman on "Shadows", Indigo Girls' Amy Ray on "Turpentine" - but the focus is very much on McEntire's close-up storytelling and confessions, the odd, soaring electric guitar solo aside. Fans of the early records of Marco Price and Courtney Marie Andrews will find much to love here, while the diversion into groovesome country soul on "Rows Of Clover" keeps the head nodding".
