New Zealand musicians bringing back real music real instruments real chill

I dig where you're coming from man, I just love that raw organic music that just takes you to other places. I grew up in the 70's and how cool is it to be reviving some of that old funk, that beat that turns a shit day into a better day man. As for you and your channel, keep doing what you're doing because I love your reaction Videos and funny too!...Peace✌️👍

Yor a 'hard case' alryt bro! Dat was a crack up! Kool tho brutha! L.A.B is da Bomb💣👍🇳🇿

Welcome to NZ's laid back music scene. NZ music is a fusion of Soul, RnB, Funk, Jazz, Blues, Gospel or Rock wrapped in Reggae/Island rhythms. Glad to see you reacting to arguably one of our biggest bands (along with Six60) in NZ right now. L.A.B are an Extraordinary band , even better Live - Brad Kora (Drums/BV), Stu Kora (Keyboards/Guitar/BV), Miharo Gregory (Keyboards/BV), Ara Adams-Tamatea (Keyboards/Bass), Joel Shadbolt (Lead Guitar/Vocals) and can't be pigeon holed to one genre. Pronounced 'L - A - B' after the initials of 2 founding members (brothers Laughton and Brad from the iconic reggae roots band KORA made up of 4 brothers - Laughton, Brad, Stu and Francis), Stu replaced Laughton when he left. This is what Kiwi's have been vibing too for the past 7+ years. Proud Man is from their latest album L.A.B V which dropped in Dec 2021. Checkout their Studio performances where available of - Controller, In the Air, For The Love Of Jane (Official Video Sequel to In The Air (Official Video)), Yes I Do, Natural, IJDK, Why Oh Why, Fashion Dread, Ain't No Use (Live at One Love 2021), My Brother, Baby Will You Let Me, No Roots, Personify, Mr Reggae, (Under The Sun, Oh Honey, Can You Be The One - don't have video clips yet) etc for a sample of their diverse discography. Six60 - Don't Forget Your Roots, Vibes, Up There (Lyric Video), Don't Give It Up, Closer (Lyric Video), Rivers, Someone To Be Around, White Lines, Please Don't Go, Rolling Stone, Raining, Tomorrow, Only To Be, Rest Of You, Bitter End, Forever, Lost ft Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra etc. And just like L.A.B their discography is diverse and also full of bangers. PS: That drop @06:45 was the Bass. Maybe you,TDaGodd, J Smooove should come to NZ together for their next concert or to One Love 2023 Summer Music Festival (Jan-Feb 2023) and listen to our brand of music from home grown kiwi bands, including, L.A.B, Stan Walker, Ardijah and international artists once the borders are open.

Love your reaction MAJ, so good to see people appreciate great musicianship!

Come o Maj !! Why don't you have a million subscribers. You rock out and you know great music when you experience it. Kia Ora from Aotearoa New Zealand and L.A.B are our little but huge treasures. Please react to L.A.B's Mr Reggae. The song speaks for itself. But just shows the diversity of all of the genres that our awesome L.A.B have. Love them to pieces and love your reactions and appreciation for great kiwi music. Cheers Bro

LAB is amazing live, you would love them. If you have some time have a look at No Roots by LAB 🖤

Hi matey. Yes LAB are brilliant musicians. There lead singer Tim Shadbolt is also a music teacher. In one of there live concerts here in NZ they invited a 17yr old student up on stage to play a solo he was awesome. Tim taught him as a youngster. Keep the vibes coming.
