Bluebird Days is Jordan Davis' second album, following his 2018 release Home State. In between these two albums he released two extended plays: a self-titled one in 2020 and Buy Dirt in 2021. These respectively included the singles "Almost Maybes" and "Buy Dirt", a duet with Luke Bryan, which is also included on Bluebird Days. Davis wrote most of the songs on the album with his brother Jacob, as well as "Buy Dirt" co-writer Matt Jenkins. Paul DiGiovanni, lead guitarist of the band Boys Like Girls, produced the album.[3]
Rating it three stars out of five, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic wrote that the album "may have a soft, gentle touch, but it benefits from Davis not sounding nearly as chipper as he did on Home State...It's a subtle difference but one that makes Bluebird Days an easier record to enjoy."[4]
