KATSEYE Confirms Lollapalooza Lineup Without Manon
A recent video message posted to the Lollapalooza Argentina Instagram page showcased the quintet – Yoonchae Jeung, Sophia Laforteza, Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, and Megan Skiendiel – waving and expressing their excitement for their performance.1 The video also included footage from their debut performance at Lollapalooza Chicago last summer.1
