The Australian[5]

Sarah Elks from The Australian said "Busby Marou neatly sidesteps the sophomore slump with Farewell Fitzroy, a rich, warm and joyful follow-up to their breakthrough debut.".[5]

Good Morning Country said "Mandolins, ukulele and whistles – stories of travels across the globe, and the pull of home. Like catching up with old friends you've been hanging out to hear from, Farewell Fitzroy is Busby Marou's welcome return, the highly anticipated second album from the Queensland duo... Farewell Fitzroy is 12 tracks of folk-pop and country-tinged song craft, distinctly Australian storytelling, and the gifted musicianship of Tom Busby and Jeremy Marou."[6]
