KATSEYE Withdraws from Olivia Rodrigo's Festival Due to Megan's Injury
KATSEYE has pulled out of Olivia Rodrigo's Daisy Chain Fields festival after member Megan sprained her ankle during rehearsal. Megan announced the news on Instagram, expressing disappointment and wishing the event well. The group has recently dealt with member hiatuses but still earned their first No. 1 album with 'Wild'.
The festival marks Rodrigo's inaugural year as a founder, with all proceeds directed toward reproductive rights organizations and children's charities. Megan's recovery timeline remains unclear, though her doctors have prioritized rest ahead of the group's upcoming tour commitments.
KATSEYE's withdrawal follows a turbulent period for the six-member act. Manon stepped away in February citing health concerns, and Sophia announced her own hiatus earlier this month. Despite these absences, the group celebrated their first chart-topping album last week when the EP "Wild" reached No. 1.
This cancellation could ripple through the festival's debut year, as KATSEYE's fanbase may have purchased tickets specifically for their set. The group's recent instability—two member hiatuses plus this injury—may raise questions about their touring readiness, potentially affecting promoter confidence and fan expectations for upcoming dates. However, their recent chart success suggests resilience that could help them weather this setback.
