Digitonal's breakthrough album and statement of intent came in the late summer of 2008 after a period of protracted touring and various personal moves which saw the band scattered between Sheffield, Nottingham and London. It marked the introduction of the clarinet as a key instrument in the ensemble with the track 93 Years On, alongside the ever-present strings of Samy Bishai and guest musicians including Kat Arney, Joe Aquilina and Niko Tsonev.
Save Your Light for Darker Days is a record about love and loss, poetry and perspective. The title considers what we keep hidden from the world and how that might shape our lives in ways we can't predict.
