Following on from 2010’s The Liberation of…, an album that garnered critical plaudits and multiple awards, including the prestigious Taite Music Prize, Ladi6 will release her highly anticipated third studio album later this year . The as yet to be titled album was recorded between Studio A in Detroit, Michigan and Revolver Studios in Waiuku with the first single ‘Ikarus’ produced by Parks being described as a beautiful amalgamation of soul and futuristic hip-hop complemented by Ladi6’s hypnotic vocals.
Ladi6 with Parks, Julien Dyne and Brandon Haru join forces with Auckland hip hop collective @Peace for a mid-winter national tour.
@Peace features Tom Scott, alongside Lui Tuiasau, Christoph ‘El Truento’ James, Hayden ‘Dastardly’ Dick and also Brandon Haru. Their second EP ‘Girl Songs’ was released on Valentine’s Day this year, and one reviewer described it as ‘a mixing pot of summery soul, funk, ghostly R&B and chilled rhymes’. @Peace is no mere ‘side project’ for Scott, it’s a chance to explore his more contemplative and reflective side and he is ably assisted by the jazz and soul proclivities of the rest of the collective. With a debut album due out soon, @Peace look set to consolidate the promise of their two EPs.
IKARUS was named after this graf writer and his artwork http://www.facebook.com/ikarusDtrCrew

Summer Tour 2012/2013 Part 2
Summer Tour 2012/2013 Part 1
Eight strong and straight outta the Waikato, Katchafire have been at the forefront of NZ reggae for some ten years. Now making serious inroads in the US, the band return to their natural environment in support of their most recent album, the platinum-selling On The Road Again.
Always a festival highlight, Katchafire ‘s 2012 has been one of continuous highs, both musically and otherwise. A 25-date US tour saw them sell out the prestigious House Of Blues and was followed by a tour of Brazil which is to be the subject of a forthcoming documentary. Best known for their powerhouse live shows, complete with incredible vocal harmonies and insane musical precision,
catch ‘em while you can over summer.
Ladi6 is our own homegrown soul diva whose unmistakable smoky voice has graced tracks by The Adults, Shapeshifter, Fat Freddy’s Drop, Scribe and Opensouls, not to mention her own top selling, award winning (including the prestigious Taite prize) albums.
Her dynamic and ever-evolving live show has travelled the world with band members Parks and Julien Dyne on drums, decks and all manner of beats and loops whilst Ladi6 commands the stage and mic with effortless skill and THAT voice. This year, Ladi6’s track “Like Water” was named by MTV Iggy as the Best Love Song of 2012 and has won an Honorable Mention in America’s Unsigned Only Songwriting competition. Ladi6 will be returning to New Zealand this summer after recording her upcoming album in Detroit, USA.
