Sounds Like Nashville
Here’s To You is undeniably Montgomery Gentry that fans will undoubtedly love, mixing their signature country sound with tried and true topics that celebrate small towns, unsung heroes and the spirit of America. Recorded before Troy Gentry’s untimely death in 2017, the album delivers the best of the duo and is perhaps their most diverse album yet.

AllMusic
. . . Here's to You is a straight-ahead Montgomery Gentry album, one that is proudly out of step with current fads and designed to please longtime fans. Apart from a hint of hip-hop at the start of "Get Down South," Here's to You adheres to the same melodic synthesis of anthemic rock and country corn Montgomery Gentry call their own.

Country Hodge Podge
It's a shame that Montgomery Gentry's tenure comes to an end with an album that doesn't leave the same legacy as the albums Some People Change and Back When I Knew it All, but it could have ended much worse by trying to conform to the sound of what plagues the radio these days.

RoughStock
Here's To You is not just a great record in the band’s steady catalog of recordings but it feels like their most well-rounded and best album of their career.

Your Life In A Song
‘Here’s to You’ is a confusing album. It’s hard to listen to in isolation as a piece of music because of Troy Gentry’s passing. . . . It is an excellently produced album with lush sound and some excellent Country/Rock guitars which will sound awesome in a live setting but it essentially comes from a place long gone now.
-
Country Standard Time
The album isn't all that different from this duo's preceding catalogue. These country performers have always created music for 'everyman.' They're not trying to push boundaries or expand the vocabulary of country music. They sing songs that make country folk proud to be who they are. . . . there are plenty of songs that will make you proud to be a country music fan.

The Music Universe
Overall, the album is one of their best, despite it being sonically different from the others. While we all wish we were hearing it under different circumstances, we can all play it loud and proud in honor of Gentry.

. . . Here’s To You, an outstanding collection of never-before-heard songs . . . .

Montgomery Gentry Returns To Top The Charts With “Here’s To You”
-
Country Exclusive
Actually, that’s the thing about so much of this album, it’s simple in a way that’s not pandering, yet there’s nothing deep about it at all. It’s fun, light, easy to listen to. If anything, it’s more about the fact that this was Montgomery Gentry just getting back to being themselves, to being the reason that people fell in love with them in the first place.

Nashville Country Club
With three-plus years since their last release, “Here’s To You,” is proving that it was worth the wait.

Words From Wags
. . . we have one last album to enjoy from them and hopefully Eddie Montgomery continues to make music.

KOKE FM
While there are plenty of future Montgomery Gentry fan favorites on the new collection, it also represents a more mature sound for the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame members.

Apple Music
It feels fitting, then, that Here’s to You sounds like some of their earliest cuts from Tattoos & Scars: raw, rollicking, laced with witty one-liners. The subjects are also classic Montgomery Gentry . . . .

Troy Gentry’s final Montgomery Gentry album reflective, wise.

Music Update Central
This album is as consistently amazing as the group’s first album which was cut close to twenty years ago. I got all the feels throughout the album and without a doubt know that this was more than a technical composition album, this album is all heart.

MONTGOMERY GENTRY’S ‘HERE’S TO YOU’ ALBUM MAKES STRONG DEBUT Montgomery Gentry's 'Here’s to You' album has made quite the impact on the country music charts!

Strictly Country
Like many of their albums, this one lacks depth and variety. Other reviewers will praise this album as it was the last known recordings of Troy Gentry. . . . Majority of the songs on this album contain a monotony of duplicate melodies mixed with rhythmic lyrics that are devoid of discernment. What discourages me from their music is found in the production; as the instrumentals outweigh the vocals.

Knox News
Fans can now celebrate that album, the newly released “Here’s to You,” as one last round of feel-good songs from the Kentucky-native duo whose blue-collar country anthems are underscored by Southern rock.

The Philadelphia Inquirer
The duo's hitmaking days of the early and mid-2000s were behind them, but the album is a solid reminder of their rugged appeal. The songs continue to extol the virtues of small-town life and the sometimes flawed but hardworking and hard-partying people who live there, set to country music heavily laced with rock. - Nick Cristiano
