BEDROOM BAR :: LADI6 :: 26/06/14
We are very happy to welcome Ladi and her band back after far too loooooong an absence.
She comes fresh from releasing her third album, ‘Automatic’, to great acclaim. Produced by Parks alongside Detroit legend, Waajeed, the album was recorded at both Studio A in Detroit and Revolver Studios in Waiuku and has been hailed by critics as her strongest statement to date: ” … crafted with impeccable taste, somehow both inventively crunchy and raw, and like a beautiful tonic for your ears in the same instant.”
Ladi6 is well known on the Australasian and European festival circuit where she has performed at The Big Chill and Glastonbury as well as supported musical heroes including Gil Scott Heron and Erykah Badu. These shows received rave reviews, with the
European media saying she was “one to watch” and “stratospherically good.”
