Promises Kept: Anthem Edition Ushers in a New Era of Southern Gospel with Dynamic New EP

It’s been a whirlwind year for Anthem Edition, the Southern Gospel quartet formerly known as The Old Paths, and they’re closing it out with a bang. Following the addition of tenor singer Cameron Edens and a string of successful singles, the group has announced their new EP, Promises Kept. Slated for release on January 10 via Sonlite Records, the collection is now available for pre-save—and it promises to be a game-changer for both the group and their fans.

“This album is special to us,” says founding member and lead singer Tim Rackley. “It marks the first time we’re making music together as a team with Cameron Edens and Andrew Utech, alongside our longtime brother, Doug Roark. These songs are a testament to God’s unwavering faithfulness, and we can’t wait for you to experience the message of hope and promise we’ve poured our hearts into.”

A Revival of Sound and Spirit

Kicking off with the electrifying “Every Promise Made Is a Promise Kept,” written by Kenna Turner West and Jason Cox, the EP sets a bold tone with its spirited drums and country-flavored energy. Its lyrics declare God’s unchanging faithfulness, driving home the project’s central theme:

There’s never been a time that He’s not faithful
Never been a day His words aren’t true…
Every promise made is a promise kept.

While Anthem Edition leans into lively, up-tempo numbers, they also showcase their versatility with reflective tracks like I Am Loved and the meditative Still Under His Feet. From the horn-infused grit of Graveyard to the harmonica-tinged closer They Need To See, each song radiates the urgency and transformative power of faith.

Acclaimed producer Roger Talley lauds the group’s passion and versatility: “They approached this project with a renewed energy like never before. For anyone who has ever complained about too many slow songs, this project is for you!”

A Testament to Faith and Commitment

With Promises Kept, Anthem Edition not only solidifies their signature sound but boldly enters a new era, balancing familiarity for long-time fans with fresh energy to captivate new listeners. Their journey, underpinned by a busy touring schedule and heartfelt musical ministry, mirrors the message of the EP: God’s promises endure through every storm.

The anticipation is palpable as Southern Gospel fans await the EP’s official release. Promises Kept isn’t just an album; it’s a rallying cry of faith, hope, and renewal. This is Anthem Edition at their finest—unwavering in their mission, united in their message, and ready to take the world by storm.
