"Accompanied by some of the best players in the scene, the country maverick performs bluegrass versions of highlights from his back catalog, revealing the hidden roots of his idiosyncratic songwriting".

"No matter how you discovered Cuttin' Grass Vol. 1: The Butcher Shoppe Sessions, there is something in this album for you. For those with little knowledge of bluegrass, it is an outsider friendly introduction to the genre. For long-time Sturgill Simpson fans, Cuttin' Grass is yet another example of his musical talents as he continues to take his skills in any direction his fancies".

"'Cuttin' Grass` can truthfully be described as a fever dream - Sturgill Simpson was at home recovering from Coronavirus when the idea for thealbum struck him. Assembling an acoustic band from Nashville's finest , Simpson had one further twist to add - the album contains no standards, and no covers of other artists. Instead 'Cuttin' Grass` has twenty reimaginings of songs from Simpson's first three albums ... The reshaped songs work perfectly - not only do they easily take the conversion from semi-outlaw country and glintings of Cosmic American Music they actually go further. It's as if they were meant to be bluegrass songs all along".

"Simpson's warmest, most life-affirming record by a country mile; even the darkest lyrics are lifted to the light by the taut, buoyant performances of the virtuosic musicians ... And he sounds more natural than ever, singing in his viscous, Waylon Jennings-recalling baritone".
