KATSEYE Earns Coveted Grammy Nominations for Best New Artist and Best Pop Duo/Group

In a major milestone, the six-member girl group KATSEYE has earned their first-ever Grammy nominations. As of November 8th, 2025, the group has been nominated in two coveted categories: Best New Artist and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for their single "Gabriela."

The group, comprising members Daniela, Lara, Manon, Megan, Sophia, and Yoonchae, expressed their gratitude for the prestigious recognition. "What an absolute honor it is to be nominated for our first-ever Grammy Award(s)," they said in a statement. "We grew up watching and dreaming about moments like this, and seeing it become real feels surreal."

KATSEYE's rise to the Grammys has been a remarkable journey. The group gained early recognition from the Netflix documentary "Popstar Academy," which chronicled their path from pop hopefuls to global stars. Formed through the YouTube-based competition series "Dream Academy," the group has since captured the attention of music fans worldwide with their viral singles like "Gnarly" and "Gabriela."

As they compete against a talented field of Best New Artist nominees, including Olivia Dean, The Marías, and Addison Rae, KATSEYE remains humbled and inspired. "We're so thankful to the Recording Academy for this recognition and to all the incredible artists nominated alongside us. We can't believe this; it's so inspiring to be in such amazing company. Most of all, thank you to our fans, our Eyekons, for supporting us every step of the way."
