Lavinia also plays harp, psaltery and organ. Michael Flower plays guitar and Glaswegian singer/songwriter Alasdair Roberts, plays guitar and shares vocals with Lavinia on the traditional "Polly On The Shore". Their 2009 album "I Grew From A Stone To A Statue". references both folk and rock and includes a radical reworking of Richard Thompson's "Calvary Cross". The Wire's Rob Young described the record as "a bracing set of spontaneous fuzzdrone minstelry".
