Katchafire and Louis Baker Unite on New Single "Who You With"
Louis Baker says "Who You With" was the song he and his mates sang at parties, making his guest spot on Katchafire's Revival 2.0 Guest Edition feel like a full-circle moment.

Louis Baker had no hesitation when Katchafire called. "When I got the call asking if I'd be on the record and what track I wanted to jump on, it was always going to be that one," the Auckland singer-songwriter said of "Who You With," which dropped on March 13 as the latest preview single from the New Zealand roots-reggae band's forthcoming Revival 2.0 Guest Edition album.
Baker, a singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer known for his signature slow-cooked modern soul, brought his own texture to a track that has been part of Katchafire's live set for more than two decades. His connection to the song runs deeper than a session call: "I remember when Who You With first dropped – I loved that song. It was the one me and my mates would sing at parties. Big love to the Katchafire whānau for bringing me in."

The collaboration is one piece of a long-running rollout for Revival 2.0 Guest Edition, an album scheduled for release on November 27. Rather than a conventional album campaign, Katchafire are issuing a series of monthly singles in which guest artists reinterpret tracks from the original Revival release. The Louis Baker version of "Who You With" is designed to honour the original recordings while introducing new textures and voices, pointing toward the direction the full project will take.
Among the other confirmed collaborators are Hawaiian reggae artist Mike Love and Australian First Nations singer Emily Wurramara, with further contributors expected to be announced across the coming months. The breadth of those names reflects a Pacific and indigenous reach that gives Revival 2.0 Guest Edition a scope well beyond a standard remix collection.
Katchafire are also keeping their live presence active throughout 2026, with several festival appearances on the horizon. No specific dates or festival names have been confirmed yet, but the combination of monthly single drops and stage work signals a year-long campaign built around one of the band's most enduring records.
