The Eliza Carthy Band play Lavenders at the legendary Monto Water Rats in Grays Inn Road, London on 18 March 2010. Eliza and the band played a set that not only featured most of the superb, largely self-penned, Dreams of Breathing Underwater album (including the song featured here), but also played a handful of new songs, destined for the next album. If you haven't heard Dreams of Breathing Underwater, but like what you are hearing here, I suggest that you give it a go. I liked it so much I bought it twice! Thats not quite as crazy as it sounds though. I bought it on CD when it first came out in 2008 - and when it was re-mastered & re-issued on 180 gram vinyl with a bonus 7" single earlier this year I bought it again! The vinyl version is a thing of great beauty btw - so if you are a vinyl junkie, seek it out; it sounds amazing! Finally, with regards to this performance, special mention must go to the astonishing Barney Morse-Brown on cello - simply stunning! Barney also plays with Eliza in the Imagined Village project btw.
