After meeting Eddy, hearing his passion for music and realising that they shared the same vision, she decided to assist with his band, starting with the role of band secretary. Lavinia took a back seat for 2 years but her expertise was needed and she was asked to manage the band, a job she relishes. Since assuming this position in 2016, her main focus has been centered around changing the image of the band from being just a carnival band to one that is versatile and available to play for a variety of events.
