Critical reception

Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song a positive review, saying that "Jerrod Niemann sings of a free spirit in his new song “Blue Bandana,” but she’s something of a metaphor for lost youth. The girl in the blue bandana is a gypsy committed only to the wispy impulses of the wind. By the end of the song she’s slipped away. [1]

Music video

The music video was directed by P. R. Brown and premiered in August 2015. [2]
