KATSEYE

Katseye (stylized in all caps) is a girl group based in Los Angeles. The group has six members: Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, Manon Bannerman, Megan Skiendiel, Sophia Laforteza, and Yoonchae Jeung. With members from the Philippines, South Korea, Switzerland, and the United States, Katseye is often called a "global girl group".

The group was formed through the 2023 reality competition series Dream Academy, a collaboration between Hybe and Geffen Records. Its formation is chronicled in the Netflix docuseries Pop Star Academy: Katseye, which recounts the audition process, intensive training, and formation of the group. Katseye debuted in June 2024 with the single "Debut", followed by their breakthrough single, "Touch". They released their first extended play (EP), SIS (Soft Is Strong), later that year. In April 2025, they released "Gnarly", the lead single for their second EP, Beautiful Chaos (2025). Despite receiving mixed reactions on release, the single garnered significant attention and earned the group their first entry on the Billboard Hot 100. Beautiful Chaos was released on June 27, 2025, and debuted at number four on the Billboard 200, their highest-charting release to date. The EP's second single, "Gabriela", peaked within the top 40 of the Hot 100 and was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, with the group also nominated for Best New Artist at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards.
