AllMusic, Marcy Donelson said: "Throughout Two Saviors, Meek's uniquely kindly tenor conveys evocative phrases and settings that likewise stand apart from the crowd. Much of the album consists of similarly affectionate, soft-footed tracks." Carlo Thomas of
Beats Per Minute wrote: "Two Saviors is quiet and understated, yet thoroughly enjoyable despite rarely moving out of second gear. The lyrical approach is the key insight to Two Saviors: Meek uses characters, their stories, and his interactions with them, to process his thoughts on the human condition." Writing for
DIY, Louisa Dixon explained: "A feather-light collection of alt-country, packed with pedal steel, lilting melodies and Buck's own evocative Texan burr, Buck's latest outing is a soothing antidote to literally everything else 2020 has thrown our way." At
Loud and Quiet, Ollie Rankine stated: "Shacked up with his bandmates in an old Louisiana manor house, Meek's songs are, like his stately surrounds, far beyond their years. His gentle wonderings about life, adventure and resilience in heartbreak are carried by the sort of wisdom often found with a much older head." ==Track listing==
