“After three decades of collaborating with some of the best in the business, Katchafire are back with a special album. First released in 2003, Revival showcased the band’s easy-listening roots reggae, nodding to R&B and jazz through comprehensive instrumentals and soulful vocals, putting forward a fresh sound that appealed to New Zealand listeners.
It was the debut album that marked the beginning of a decades-long journey for Katchafire, who show no signs of slowing down with the band now spanning across three generations of whānau. The record was certified platinum within a few months and went on to have a resurgence two decades later, re-entering the charts in 2023 and ranking among Aotearoa’s top 10 most popular albums by New Zealand artists that year. The popularity of Revival has also remained strong not just with Kiwi audiences but with fans around the world.” – Rolling Stone Magazine, 18 May 2026
