effort yet, combining their unique sound in the next chapter from one of
NZ’s most exciting live acts the next chapter in the L.A.B story.
The L.A.B musical blend is captivating and invigorating – trademark Kora grooves blending seamlessly with Joel Shadbolt’s blues roots and Ara Adams-Tamatea’s dub reggae experience to create their own sound entirely. The pedigree and musicianship of L.A.B is undeniable.
