After a massive few years which has seen them hit number one multiple times and sell out shows across Aotearoa & Australia, L.A.B announce their largest run of shows ever for Summer 2022, presented by Jim Beam.

In their only NZ headline shows of summer 2022, these three epic Saturdays in January will see L.A.B performing alongside massive local lineups showcasing the country's best talent.

The first show sees L.A.B return to the iconic Bowl Of Brooklands in New Plymouth following last summer’s sold out show. Christchurch’s Hagley Park will see L.A.B combine with Shapeshifter for a huge double bill for both act’s only South Island headline shows this summer. The run finishes with the band taking on Auckland’s Western Springs Stadiums for a festival-worthy lineup across one day.

The release of their album L.A.B IV saw the band cement themselves as one of the most popular acts in NZ, with the album debuting at Number One on the Official Album Charts, with single Why Oh Why hitting Number One on the Official Top 40 Singles Charts, their second Number One. 2021 so far has seen the band perform sold-out shows in New Plymouth, Auckland, Wellington & Hamilton, with this run of shows being the biggest of their career.
