Content
[edit]The album's lead single is "Love You Like I Used To". In addition to this song, a lyric video for "Never Get Old" was released on Vevo in advance of the album. Florida Georgia Line are a featured artist on "It's About Time".[2]
Critical reception
[edit]Rating it 3 out of 5 stars, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic wrote that "Frivolity doesn't weigh heavily on Dickerson's mind, but Southern Symphony has a bright, shiny gloss that suggests it's a party. The production is so slick that the deeper emotions Dickerson attempts don't quite stick, yet the album is ingratiating due to his unassuming, friendly touch and its relentless smoothness".[3]
