Critical reception

Deuces received a rating of three stars out of five from Allmusic. Critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine remarked that although the selection of songs tends to be somewhat conventional, the album’s appeal is largely driven by the quality of the performances. He singled out notable pairings such as "Evangeline" with the Del McCoury Band, "Jammin' for Stevie" featuring Brad Paisley, and "God Save Us All from Religion" with Marty Stuart as highlights.
