There Is A Saved Place is the second track, following Buried Guns, to be lifted from their debut album, 'Conflats', which is due out on October 27 through Rock Action.
The band is the collaborative project of singer-songwriter Kathryn Joseph, the Twilight Sad's James Graham and Marcus Mackay, producer and founder of the Diving Bell Lounge recording studio. Graham said:
"When we were practising/writing 'There Is a Saved Place', Kathryn suggested that I do some sort of spoken word part within the song. At first I was a little hesitant but I said I'd go home and see what I could come up with. I sat in my flat and thought about a conversation we had with one of the many people we spoke with in Platform. I remembered his words really resonated with me.
Like some of my lyrics on Conflats, I took inspiration from what the amazing people we spoke with told us about their struggles and how Platform has helped them. In some of the stories I saw parallels between their experiences and my own. On this occasion, it inspired me to write about how a special someone has helped me overcome some issues I have in everyday life which were similar to his. Speaking to him made me think that Platform helped with his everyday struggles like my special someone helps me with with similar struggles, and that's what I wrote about."
