FMV Magazine gave the album 3 stars citing confidence and flair while criticising the album for being formulaic at times. Helen Earnshaw of Female First gave the album a 4 out of 5 rating in a review that describes the music as a successful blend of Balkan Blues and indie rock.

In 2013, the band released a collaborated single featuring Stone titled Mrs #1.

Yes Sir Boss toured music festivals in Europe and is scheduled to tour Germany, Netherlands, France, Austria, Switzerland and Scandinavia. A second album was released in April 2014 titled King in a Rocking Chair.

Yes Sir Boss made a television appearance in 2013 on critically acclaimed live magazine entertainment show T.B.A. hosted by Chris Lloyd and Caroline De Moraes. To an entranced studio audience reception, the band performed their hit singles Not Guilty and Till You Get Yours from the seminal album Desperation State.
