Lavers' involvement with the visual arts in terms of his working methods, his sensibility and visual perspective are all reflected in his individual approach to composing. "I see more and more clearly the correlation between making music and painting". His open minded appreciation and experience in many different styles of music has led to collaborations with musicians from Spain, Africa and India and an extensive experience in the realm of Jazz (including experimental and avant garde music) and has served as an inspiration and framework for his own personal statements in music. 'Small Creature' features the supremely talented French drummer Laurent Robin, who has worked with names such as Lee Konitz and Dave Liebman and is the regular drummer for the popular French pianist Laurent de Wilde, rising star Jamil Sheriff , pianist with the band and the Hungarian bassist Zoltan Dekeny who has studied with Charlie Haden.
