Speaking about the new album Logan Bell said “The brothers are excited to bring new music to our Fire family… we have been working hard to bring some new fire! It’s sounding great to our ears and we can’t wait to share the music with everybody.”
Brother Jordan Bell said “The way this came together is the epitome of the legacy kaupapa (theme). Katchafire is such a huge family – not only the core members but international members, as well as family, that have housed, fed, and looked after us on this journey. They have all played a part. A true family effort and labour of love”.
