Episode description
We had the pleasure of interviewing L.A.B. over Zoom video!
New Zealand reggae band L.A.B. recently released their brand new album, L.A.B VI.
After a steady schedule of releasing their first five albums within a five year span, L.A.B VI arrives after an almost two year-long period of writing, recording, tweaking & finessing what is possibly their strongest album to date. Recorded with frequent collaborator Lee Prebble at Wellington's Surgery Studios, the album was written amongst a heavy touring schedule which saw the band perform sold-out shows across NZ, Australia, the United States, the UK & Europe over the past two years.
Whittled down from nearly 30 total tracks, the 11 songs featured on L.A.B. VI are a welcome addition to an already beloved catalogue. Featuring the singles "Take It Away," "Casanova,” "Oh No (Pt. 2)” and “Ocean Demon," the album shows off all the different sides of the L.A.B sound — combining reggae/roots & soul with funk & elements of rock.
L.A.B. has established themselves as one of the hardest-working bands in New Zealand with their relentless touring & recording schedule. They have also achieved multiple chart topping singles, 17 multi-Platinum singles, 11 Gold singles and over 500 million streams across all DSPs. While L.A.B VI represents the longest time the band have taken between albums, it also represents the most complete album in their catalogue. The album confirms their place as one of the key acts in the New Zealand music scene, while setting their sights on growing their audience globally.
