New Zealand based KATCHAFIRE’s 3rd album is a can’t miss mixture of jazz, pop, and rock informed reggae. Every track issues a calming vibe, the kind that make you feel that if this were the soundtrack to your life, everything would be ok. The solid grooves make it near impossible to not bob your head in time. With 5 different members of the band sharing lead vocal duties, the each song has a different feel from the previous one. The highlight tracks from the album are #2 “Now Girl”, #6 “This World”, and #10 “Meant To Be”. Ben Cook, WYCE Intern
