Katchafire music is mostly reggae mixed with traditional Maori music of New Zealand. The eight-piece touring band plays to sell-out crowds across their county. Their debut album, "Revival" went double platinum with the biggest selling single of 2002: "Giddy-up".

Their sound is very reminiscent of the great reggae band Third World and to a lesser extent Aswad and Steel Pulse. Their performances at home often morph into sing-a-long affairs.
