“The CampFire is pretty excited about our new year tour with Rebulution, it’s an
opportunity we just can’t miss,” says Katchafire Lead Vocalist, Logan Bell. “I think both bands compliment each other’s art & for Katchafire, it’s a chance to win a whole new audience that love reggae music, but may not have heard of us before… After the show if they don’t know they will know!”
Katchafire has also been working on new music, even releasing a single off their 5th studio album on Hawaiian radio. Be sure to listen for new Katchafire tunes on tour this winter.
