KATSEYE’s Manon Bannerman Announces Hiatus From Group to Focus on Her “Health and Wellbeing”
Coachella 2026 is shaping up to be a major debut for one group.
KATSEYE is preparing to hit the Sahara stage at the California music festival on April 10 and 17, just hours before festival headliner Sabrina Carpenter steps onstage. And according to band member Lara Raj, their Coachella debut will be extra special.
“Just know we’re working really, really hard for Coachella,” Lara exclusively shared during Live From E! Stream: Spotify Best New Artist Party 2026 in January. “We have something really, really exciting planned.”
However, the group—currently comprised of Lara, Yoonchaej, Daniela Avanzini, Sophia Laforteza and Megan Skiendiel—will be missing a member for their highly anticipated Coachella performance.
In February, it was confirmed that Manon Bannerman would be taking a hiatus from the group “to focus on her health and wellbeing.”
“We fully support this decision,” the group shared in a post on X Feb. 20, adding that they remain “committed to showing up for one another and for the fans who mean everything to us.”
