In 2008 Lavoie accepted an invitation to participate in a project that united music with the poetry of Gaston Miron, Quebec's 20th-century poet : the album "Douze homme rapaillés", a collection of musical settings of Miron's poems by Gilles Bélanger and performed by various Quebec's singers-songwriters. The second volume of this work came out in 2010 ("Douze homme rapaillés – volume 2"). The rare stage performances of "Douze homme rapaillés" won both critical and popular acclaim. The third installment of the project, the disc "La symphonie rapaillée" presenting a selection of the songs from the previous two albums, this time accompanied by an orchestra, was released in April 2014.
