KATSEYE is fully in “TOUCH” as a girl group, as the six-member squad took the stage on The Kelly Clarkson show on Wednesday (Oct. 23) to perform their latest hit.

The group delivered the track out of the studio, on a rooftop against the Los Angeles skyline, dressed in coordinating pastel outfits and go-go boots. “You been so out of touch, touch, touch, touch, touch/ Thought about you way too much, much, much, much, much/ Over, over thinking us, us, us, us, us/ ‘Cause you been so out of touch,” they sing in the instantly catchy chorus as they delivered in-sync choreography.

“It’s such a beautiful song. We all love it,” KATSEYE’s Daniela previously told Billboard of “TOUCH,” which is featured on their recent EP, SIS (Soft Is Strong). “The song itself is like our softer side and it shows complexity of love. Filming the whole music video was such an amazing experience and recording as well. It’s ethereal and shows our softer side, but we can tap into our fierceness and our self-confidence too.”

The K-pop-inspired international girl group featuring members Sophia, Manon, Daniela, Lara, Megan and Yoonchae, were formed as part of the competition series The Debut: Dream Academy, and while they only debuted back in June, they’ve already established an impressively dedicated fanbase, known as the EYEKONS.

Music News Digest: CRTC Aims To Fill a Gap for Indigenous Radio in Toronto and Ottawa

The CRTC recently launched a call for applications for FM radio stations to serve Indigenous communities in Toronto and Ottawa. Broadcast Dialogue reports "the call follows the demise of First Peoples Radio’s ELMNT FM stations, which went off the air on Sept. 1 last year. Launched in the fall of 2018, the stations had a goal to 'fill the gap' for urban Indigenous listeners under-represented in the radio landscape. They carried an 'Indigenous-variety' format, featuring both English and Indigenous-language spoken-word and musical programming, with 25% of the playlist dedicated to Indigenous talent.

In its call, the commission says in its view, "there is a need and a demand for radio stations to serve the needs and interests of those communities."
