The Promise Ring (subtitled "Songs of New Eireland") is the eleventh solo album by Yes lead singer Jon Anderson, released in 1997 on the OM Town label.
The Promise Ring is a collection of songs of Celtic music composed by Jon Anderson and the Froggin' Peach Orchestra, a Celtic music local band based at the San Luis Obispo's Frog 'n Peach Pub.
In the inner booklet, Jon Anderson reveals that he "always wanted to sing about the Celtic knowledge" and that "one night, [he] dreamed about these lyrics and the songs of Eireland, as if [he] was in the year 2002 and Eire was once again One Country".
All songs written by Jon Anderson and the Froggin' Peach Orchestra.
Jon Anderson dedicated the album "to [his] mom and dad for giving [him] this love of life".
