Background

Before the announcement of the duet version, Noah Kahan invited Lizzy McAlpine to join him in performing the track live in Los Angeles, [1] at this 2023–2024 concert tour, in which the song was included. [2] [3] Explaining that it is a "tough one" to take on during his shows, the singer stated: "For those asking about 'Call Your Mom' live just know that it is difficult for me to perform that one live every night. I'm hoping I learn to perform it with more composure but for now it’s very much a work in progress". [4]

Months after the release of the duet of "Dial Drunk" with Post Malone, [5] Kahan teased a joint song via social media in September 2023, with a video snippet and a caption that said: "The most special voice on a song that means a whole lot to me". [4] The remix was announced on September 12, along with its release date. [6]

Critical reception

Described as a "hard-hitting" song, its "grim and melancholy lyrics" were praised, as well as McAlpine's feature. [7]
