Katchafire Collab w/ Brinsley Forde on ‘Get Away’ + Announce USA Tour
Katchafire have announced a collaboration Brinsley Forde, founder of British reggae group Aswad, on their single Get Away single; the next single to be lifted from their forthcoming Revival 2.0 Guest Edition album, which is slated for release on November 27.
“The first time I heard Katchafire was through a friend from New Zealand. I was doing a radio show and looking for international reggae acts, I got a pre-release copy of ‘Revival’ and loved it. When I was asked to be part of this project I jumped at the chance, it was a no brainer”, Brinsley Forde said.
Katchafire have announced USA tour dates across California, Nevada, Oregon and Washington, with special guest Jordan T joining the first week before they support J-Boog for some seriously irie shows. (Dates & venues below).
The Revival 2.0 Guest Edition album unites roots and reggae voices from across the globe including Hawaii’s Mike Love, Australian First Nations artist Emily Wurramara, and Jamaican legends Third World, with more iconic collaborations dropping throughout the year.
Katchafire integrate vibrant reggae rhythms with Māori influences, producing a distinctive sound that has achieved international recognition. Over the past twenty-five years, the group has served as prominent advocates for Māori music and Pacific reggae, consistently releasing tracks that underscore themes of family, unity, and cultural pride. Their dedication is evident in both their impactful melodies and dynamic live performances, resulting in music that has received positive acclaim from audiences worldwide.
