KATSEYE has pulled out of the highly anticipated Daisy Chain Fields Festival, set to take place this Saturday in Irvine, California. The decision comes after group member Megan Skiendiel suffered a sprained ankle during tour rehearsals, leading to a doctor's recommendation for her to rest and recover.

The group's heartfelt announcement on social media expressed their disappointment, especially given the festival's emphasis on community and joy. They had been scheduled to perform at 2:15 PM on the Dandelion Stage, right between Santigold and Mitski, but now fans will have to adjust their plans.

Daisy Chain Fields quickly updated the schedule, placing Santigold in KATSEYE's original time slot. With the festival just around the corner, KATSEYE's fans are left wondering how Megan's injury might impact their upcoming Wildworld tour, which kicks off in Dublin on September 1st. While KATSEYE expressed their eagerness to connect with fans during the tour, the uncertainty surrounding Megan's recovery remains a concern for both the group and their supporters.
