AllMusic's Mark Deming described the album as "smart, beautifully crafted music that will please those who liked the group's debut."[2] Ljubinko Zivkovic of Spill Magazine gave it a rating of four and a half and opined about the album's vocal harmony alignment, calling "such music quite timeless".[8] Country Universe gave the album four and a half stars, writing "No one conveys urgency or intensity in quiet like these three when they’re in sync, and they’re in lockstep of moral clarity here."[10] Steve Horowitz at PopMatters reviewed the album as a 9 out of 10, writing, "Wild and Clear and Blue is the kind of album that initially knocks one out because of the obvious talents of its performers, but then sneaks up on the listener upon reflection through an appreciation of its deeper concerns."[11]
Their single "Ancient Light" was named song of the year at the Americana Music Honors & Awards in 2025.[12]
All tracks are written by Sarah Jarosz, Aoife O'Donovan, and Sara Watkins.
