    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.

    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.
