==Reception==
Tiffany Mitchell from ''Blank Gold Coast'' said "There is a definite likeness, personality and song savviness similar to US country twinkle star [Kacey Musgraves](/source/Kacey_Musgraves). Lumsden confidently creates [MGM](/source/Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer) grand musical numbers of little town observations. This is what we need in Australian country music right now; original instrumental intros and vibrant music production swirling with clever lyrics that are too good to throw away."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://blankgc.com.au/album-review-fanny-lumsden-real-class-act/|title=Album Review Real Class Act|website=Blank Gold Coast|date= 31 August 2017|access-date=3 February 2021}}</ref>
