Smoke Notes

With their third and slickest album to date, Katchafire take their R&B-infected Reggae to new heights. Coming a long way since forming as a Bob Marley (there name comes from the Wailers 'Catch A Fire' album) covers band in Waikato back in 1997, the group has gone on to become one of this countries leading Roots/Reggae lights on the international stage. They are constantly touring and fostering an impressive fanbase around the globe, especially in Australia and more surprisingly Hawaii – this all-Maori group finding a particular affinity with the people of those Islands.
'Say What You're Thinking' is a big step musically for Katchafire, with all members of the group contributing to the songwriting which had previously been handled primarily by Guitarist/Vocalist Logan Bell and Saxophonist Jamey Fergusson. Vocally, this is an extremely strong album. The band describe themselves as a family (and with Bell and his brother Jordan and Father Grenville all members, that is almost literally the case) and with the super-tight doo-wop harmonies that open the album with the title track, musically this is also very true. These guys are so attuned to each other musically, it's almost supernatural - as anyone who has seen their hypnotic live show will attest.
This album leaves you with a warm, positive glow and a feeling that you're all the better for the experience. Refreshing in these days of unit-shifting pop commodities. That's not to say this album won't sell either – based on the sales of their debut 'Revival' and it's follow up 'Slowburning', we predict 'Say What You're Thinking' is going to be huge – taking Katchafire to the furthest corners of the globe. As Logan Bell says: "The language barrier's there but somehow the music overrides that and you wouldn't notice the difference" and that sums up this album perfectly.
