"... after the experimentalism of 2016's Paging Mr. Proust, Back Roads and Abandoned Motels will certainly please more traditional-minded Jayhawks fans, as it often recalls the low-key pleasures of 2003's Rainy Day Music. The best songs on Back Roads and Abandoned Motels are a lovely reminder of what the Jayhawks have been doing so well for over 30 years, and if this album might make one wonder if Gary Louris is running low on songwriting ideas, he still leads a band to be reckoned with".

"At this late stage, Gary Louris doesn't need to rehash older music. He has proven his talents as a moving songsmith and distinctive, emotional vocalist with his three decade and counting work for the Jayhawks. He's rightfully established as an integral component of the Americana genre. Regardless, it's terrific to hear these Louris co-composed songs interpreted by the band. Even though they were assembled from different years and with other artists' input, Back Roads And Abandoned Motels feels as cohesive and organic as the best Jayhawks releases".

"Still finding new ways to refine and expand a beloved sound, Back Roads and Abandoned Motels is, start to finish, the Jayhawks' most enjoyable record since Rainy Day Music".
