Last month, the group made its Coachella debut to stellar reviews, with Rolling Stone, Pitchfork and numerous other publications hailing their performance among the best of Weekend One. The Los Angeles Times said, “[KATSEYE] proved no this ain’t their debut at their first Coachella performance…the girl group packed the festival field with Eyekons packed shoulder to shoulder as far as the Do LaB.” “Entertainment Tonight” highlighted their Weekend Two performance of “Gabriela,” noting “KATSEYE serves powerful vocals…” while “Extra TV” said, “In a word… gnarly!…The ladies brought it to the desert once again to perform for their #Eyekons!” Rolling Stone included the group in the feature “What Would Coachella Be Without Pop Girls?”

The song, which received its live debut at Coachella, turns chaos into celebration, capturing the group’s unmistakable energy and momentum.
