Promises is the fourth studio album by The Boxer Rebellion, released worldwide on 13 May 2013.[6] Four singles were released from the album; "Diamonds", "Promises", "Keep Moving" and "Always".
"Promises" featured in the Google Grad's campaign[7] with "Keep Moving" and "New York" featuring in the TV series' Legit and Forever respectively.
"Always" was re-recorded acoustically to celebrate new guitarist Andrew Smith coming on board to replace Todd Howe[8] and one other song, "I Fell in Love", left over from the sessions (but not included on the album) was released as a free download.[9]
The album peaked at number 69 on the official Billboard 200 chart in 2013.[10]
