Katchafire

Katchafire is a New Zealand roots reggae band hailing from the city of Hamilton, which was originally formed in 2000. Initially starting as a Bob Marley cover band, the group quickly found its own voice in the Pacific reggae scene, creating a smooth and infectious sound that blends traditional reggae with modern influences. The band consists of a collective of family and friends, with a core that has remained consistent throughout much of their career. Their name, Katchafire, is a play on the term "catch a fire," itself a nod to the eponymous Bob Marley album.

Over the years, Katchafire has become not only a staple in the New Zealand music landscape but has also garnered a substantial international following, touring extensively across the globe. Their discography includes several albums and a plethora of singles that showcase their evolution and commitment to the reggae genre. With releases like "Always with You," "Whaingaroa," and "Karawhiua," they have continued to deliver music that resonates with themes of love, unity, and social consciousness. Their most recent releases, such as "Circle Back" and "Legacy," continue to affirm their status as a beloved and enduring presence in the reggae community, characterized by their upbeat rhythms and heartfelt lyrics.
