This is what New Zealand sounds like in the summer...vibes

[@alleyjames7570]

Exactly! Fuuuu! Tu Meke!

[@user-cx7tt2em3j]

Hard out

[@thatfijianboy1061]

Bula. Yup true indeed

[@shanefraser7764]

Kia Ora my Bro🏝🏝🏝🇳🇿🇳🇿✌️✌️

[@dawnezone8491]

Amen cuz ♥Another Kiwi Summer in the making 2024

[@AV8ND2L8_]

This is what NZ Summer sounds, feels, and looks like! ❤ #Bliss

[@tinkler4]

One of the most popular bands currently in New Zealand. This song was biggest selling record in 2020. Amazing band live. Please check out their earlier music. ‘Controller’ (2017) which was also a big hit that year was re-released due to the popularity of ‘In The Air’ and ‘Rocketship’ (awesome promotion album track) The band mostly composes reggae music, with a mix of electronic, blues, rock and funk music.

[@djkchur]

Aotearoa New Zealand at its finest, the live version in the studio is wicked. You should check out Stan Walker covering Ultra Light Beam by Kanye West

[@thatfijianboy1061]

And we Fijians love this song too. Play it at every gig we have. Bula vinaka Asia and BJ. Love your reactions

[@shonamcnally5855]

L.A.B. have plenty more to listen to. Teeks & Six60 are well worth diving into as well. Lots of great NZ talent out there, enjoy!

[@SF49FAN]

YES, TEEKS! ❤

[@theultimatejaye6319]

lead singer is Joel Shadbolt .. and yes the band's name is the letters L . A . B .. there's also 2 brothers in the band Brad & Stu Kora from there band Kora(also heaps of bangers from there band) .. and Ara Adams Tamatea, the bass player is from the band Katchafire (another iconic nz band with yes, you guessed it, mega- bangers)

[@theultimatejaye6319]

L.A.B apparently stands for "a group of creative's working on their crafts in a laboratory" .. they have plenty of bangers too so don't b shy to jam more of this iconic band from new zealand

[@aniolson1808]

Nope - LAB is the initials of the band members

[@theultimatejaye6319]

@@aniolson1808 that would be still true if laughton was still in the band .. now thay have Joel lead singing .. (they cud b called J.A.B) .. and also stu and miharo are others in the band

[@CaughtInp]

Love the fact that they let the beat go instead of having a chorus. Just lets you ride the song, amazing!

[@hmmmyeahnahdoh823]

06:55 Hahaha... that's because Kiwi's are nocturnal 🙄 . L.A.B members are Brad Kora (Drummer/BV), Stu Kora (Guitar/Keyboard/BV), Ara Adams Tamatea (Bass/Keyboards), Miharo Gregory (Keyboards/BV) and Joel Shadbolt (Lead Guitar/Vocals). Originally the acronym stood for founding members Laughton & Brad from iconic reggae roots band Kora, before Laughton left and Joel, Stu, Miharo joined the band. I'm unsure so don't quote me on it but I suspect the A in L.A.B stood for Ara (Bass/Keyboard player) from another iconic reggae roots band Katchafire. Thank you for reacting and sharing a little of what we listen too here in NZ, with your subscribers and the wider global audience. When music sounds this chill, smooth may seem so simple that the vibe infects the very core of our being. You both were clearly vibing to this one, good positive uplifting music that makes you want to move, whether you're on your feet or grooving in your seat, fuel for the soul. Your gonna love our smooth easy listening vibes. NZ is bringing that old school sound Back to the Future and L.A.B is at the forefront of where music is at in our country right now, with songs like For The Love Of Jane (Official video Sequel to In The Air), Controller, My Brother, Yes I Do, Natural, Fashion Dread, Baby Will You Let Me, Why Oh Why, No Roots, IJDK, Oh Honey, Backseat, Ain't No Use (Live at One Love 2021), Can You Be The One, Under the Sun, Mr Reggae, Proud Man etc, It's always best to choose the live performances from Roundhead or Massey studio when available. Aaradhna, Stan Walker, Teeks, Six60 are right up there as well. Watch the Official video and/or Studio version for a true taste of Kiwi culture. Can't wait for you to explore our music scene. Enjoy your journey down the rabbit hole.

[@onielelder9654]

Yes! L.A.B.! Gotta give “Under the Sun”…gives me Eagles vibes 🎶

[@markb1114]

[@Sayin42]

Y’all have really enjoyed reacting to some great NZ (New Zealand) music so far, such as: Crowded House - Don’t dream it’s over Stan Walker - Don’t dream it’s over (cover) And L.A.B - In the air Lorde - Royals (These are the ones that I’m aware of) All amazing tracks/artists in so many ways! I would love to see y’all react to even more NZ artists if possible, can’t go wrong with almost any song from Six60 that’s for sure

L.A.B. are one of New Zealands finest bands out there,check out some of their live performances,and these guys are way better than the over-rated and extremely boring Six60,who admittedly are very popular here in NZ,and really media savvy,but are BORING !

[@bittersweet340]

Don't think so that's just ur opinion and assumption...

[@robhaunui3343]

@@bittersweet340 no assumption there - nothing original going on with 660,as I said,they're very media savvy,so know how to sell their muzak,they're not pioneers putting anything original out,and yes you're right - it is my opinion,but I have many,many associates in the NZ music scene who are of the same opinion,and that isn't the NZ tall poppy syndrome going on. If you like them - fine,I can easily live without hearing them,and it certainly is my choice.
