Critical reception

[edit]

With a 3 out of 5 star rating, Thom Jurek of AllMusic commented, "On Dreams, Brian Culbertson attempts to dig further into the vein he opened on 2010's XII, where he seamlessly married adult-oriented R&B to contemporary jazz. In fact, Dreams feels like a bookend of sorts."[1]
