"The album merges Hiatt's rootsy side and the Jerry Douglas Band's bluegrassy side into something that's not exactly either (though there are no drums) but a little of each in an Americana sound enhanced by Douglas' production work. As Hiatt reflects on memory, loss, and desire, the band's marvelous playing leads to one of the best albums of the year".

"On 2021's Leftover Feelings, Hiatt has blended his bluesy sensibilities with a subtle country feel, though he clearly feels no alliance with the beer-and-pickup trucks mindset of Nashville's current hitmakers. Hiatt recorded Leftover Feelings with the Jerry Douglas Band, led by Douglas, arguably the world's best and certainly most influential dobro player. Though Mike Seal adds occasional flashes of electric guitar to the mix, this is otherwise an acoustic session which, as is the tradition in bluegrass, features no drums. The music is not bluegrass in either concept or execution ("All the Lilacs in Ohio" comes close), even though that's the path Douglas and his bandmates usually walk; instead, Hiatt and Douglas use the group's tonal palette to reflect the themes and emotions of Hiatt's songwriting ... Leftover Feelings isn't "John Hiatt's Acoustic Album," it's a solid and rewarding set of songs that sounds a bit different than usual, but finds him working with some excellent and simpatico musicians who understand his craft".
