Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song four stars out of five, calling Farr's voice "unique, but not distracting.

"[4] Following the merger of his original label, BNA Records, Farr moved to Columbia Nashville[5] and released his second single, "Hello Goodbye".

It had only reached number 52 on the Country Airplay chart when it was pulled from radio and "Better in Boots" was issued as a third single on August 17, 2015.

The decision to change the single was made in order to give Farr an up-tempo, "female-friendly" song that he could sing live, according to Steve Hodges of Sony Nashville.

He claims he discovered (and fell in love with) country music after his mother married George Jones' touring guitarist.
