KATSEYE won’t be performing at Olivia Rodrigo’s Daisy Chain Fields this Saturday after member Megan sprained her ankle during tour rehearsal. The group announced the cancellation just two days before the festival takes place in Irvine, California. In their statement, KATSEYE expressed their disappointment, noting that they were especially excited to support an event centered on women’s empowerment and raising money for charities supporting women and reproductive health rights.
The Daisy Chain Fields lineup remains stacked with Olivia Rodrigo as headliner, plus Chappell Roan, Garbage, The Breeders, and special guest performances from legends like Stevie Nicks, Karen O, and Sarah McLachlan. Devon Again will replace KATSEYE on the schedule, stepping in to fill the gap on the festival’s all-women roster. All proceeds from the festival benefit organizations like Planned Parenthood and the Center for Reproductive Rights.
This cancellation comes during a challenging period for KATSEYE, which has dealt with multiple member absences in 2026. Member Manon took a mental health hiatus starting in February, and member Sophia stepped back in August, leaving the group operating with four active members. While the ankle injury is a physical setback, it adds to a larger conversation about the demands placed on performers and the importance of prioritizing health and well-being. Are you disappointed about KATSEYE missing Daisy Chain Fields, or are you excited to discover Devon Again’s performance?
