The global girl group Katseye is set to make their Grammys debut on February 1, 2026, after earning nominations for Best New Artist and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance. Members shared excitement about their upcoming performance and revealed that their debut album will arrive very soon. Formed in 2024 through Netflix's Popstar Academy, the group emphasized their supportive dynamic and global representation.
Katseye, comprising Yoonchae, Manon Bannerman, Lara Raj, Daniela Avanzini, Sophia Laforteza, and Megan Skiendiel, is preparing for a milestone moment at the 2026 Grammys. The group, hailing from the Philippines, South Korea, Switzerland, and the United States, was formed in 2024 on Netflix's Popstar Academy. They are nominated for Best New Artist alongside Lola Young, The Marías, Leon Thomas, Olivia Dean, and sombr, as well as Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for their song "Gabriela."
During an exclusive interview on Live From E! Stream: Spotify Best New Artist Party 2026 on January 29, Lara Raj spoke about their preparation. "For our Grammys performance this Sunday," she said, "We’ve been grinding for a long time." Megan Skiendiel added, "We’re feeling so excited. We’re so happy to be here."
The members also teased their debut album, with Sophia Laforteza noting, "That has to be kept a secret. But it’s going to come out very soon." Looking ahead, Lara hinted at their Coachella debut: "Just know that we’re working really, really hard for Coachella. We have something really exciting planned."
Manon Bannerman highlighted the group's unity amid rising fame. "I’d say the biggest thing is we’re constantly supporting each other," she explained. "We’re always communicating with each other, checking in. That’s so important to us."
Daniela Avanzini underscored their mission of representation: "I think that was always our mission. We love saying that ‘Every girl can see herself in us.’ It really is like prideful to us. It’s something we don’t carry lightly. I think we’re all just really grateful to be in this position."
The 2026 Grammys will air on CBS and stream on Paramount+ on February 1 at 8 p.m. ET.
