KATSEYE’s “Pinky Up” marks their latest musical release, following “Internet Girl,” which dropped earlier this January 2, 2026. The surprise single debuted at No. 37 on the Philippines Hot 100 and at No. 29 on the Billboard Hot 100 upon its release. It was preceded by the group’s second EP, BEAUTIFUL CHAOS, which spawned the hit singles “Gnarly,” “Gabriela,” and “Gameboy” — all of which debuted on the Philippines Hot 100 chart, showcasing the group’s immense hold over Philippine audiences.
Most recently, the group was also nominated at the 2026 Grammy Awards for two awards, including Best New Artist and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for “Gabriela.” Additionally, they are set to make their Coachella debut later this April, and are scheduled to perform on the festival’s first day, alongside acts like BINI, The xx, Nine Inch Noize, and Sabrina Carpenter, among others.
