The album received a four-star rating from AllMusic, whose reviewer Marcy Donelson noted, "Drawing on emotional experiences from the preceding ten years, the LP may be a bit more reflective in nature than their previous releases, but fans can take heart that otherwise, it's like they never left". [1]
Tara Hepburn of the Skinny assigned Bright Nights a rating of four stars and referred to it as "a soft-focus portrait of love through the years, from the youthful wonder of possibility, to heartbreak, to deep life-long companionship." [7]
All lyrics are written by Elizabeth Morris, except "You Don't Think of Me At All" (lyrics by Bill Botting); all music is composed by Allo Darlin'.
