Faded synths, buzzing drums, and a sea of white noise send us drifting off into musical bliss on Billy Cullum's Promises. The London based songwriter and artist lyrically expounds upon a love lost while the sonics expertly build at every turn. And when the chorus hits it all locks into place. Having choreographed for Perfume Genius, Kero Kero Bonito, and MS MR, Billy is no stranger to building a vibe for a song. And with Promises, he shows the pop world that he's coming for it no holds barred.

I was in a relationship where promises were made and thrown back in my face constantly. I ended up frustrated, lonely and was getting hurt too often. This person was just too immature for a relationship. They had no clue who they were and it all stemmed from deep insecurity. It took me a while to get over but I realised I could do so much better…and I have.
