"But roughly a week before heading out on their first official tour, their opening number was met with a few sparse claps. Inside the Hollywood Palladium, the group - fresh-faced, high-spirited and dressed in their color-coordinated stagewear - held their final dress rehearsal last month. It was both the first time they'd run the show on a stage and the last time they would practice before the sold-out Beautiful Chaos tour."
"The global girl group, made of Megan Skiendiel, Sophia Laforteza, Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, Yoonchae Jeung and Manon Bannerman, are in the midst of a rapid rise to fame. In a matter of months - since the release of their second EP, "Beautiful Chaos," in June - they have continued to make each of their pop star dreams come true, with anything from the viral Gap campaign, a record-breaking crowd at Lollapalooza and two Grammy nominations."
"Recognized for their hypnotic choreography, playful lyricism and fervent energy, the "Gnarly" singers went all out for dress rehearsal - involving an army of backup dancers and repeated blasts of confetti. The group (excluding Bannerman, who was sick) sang nearly their entire discography, highlighting tracks like their TikTok viral "Touch" off their first EP "SIS (Soft is Strong)" and the Grammy-nominated "Gabriela," which included its elaborate salsa-esque dance break."
Almost every Katseye performance begins with the bass notes of their first single "Debut," bright stage lights and an eager crowd. Their final dress rehearsal at the Hollywood Palladium featured sparse applause as they prepared to launch the sold-out Beautiful Chaos tour. The six-member group (Megan Skiendiel, Sophia Laforteza, Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, Yoonchae Jeung and Manon Bannerman) surged in visibility after the June release of the EP "Beautiful Chaos," earning a viral Gap campaign, a record-breaking Lollapalooza crowd and two Grammy nominations. The rehearsal included backup dancers, confetti, nearly their full discography, a salsa-esque break in "Gabriela" and a new pop-punk-tinged song, "Internet Girl."
