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 Billboardof “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.

Obituary: Mike Bilcox of Ajax, Ontario Pop-Punk Band Not By Choice

Former drummer and now head of Round One Sports & Entertainment Liam Killeen pens this tribute to his former bandmate, with words from The Feldman Agency's Jeff Craib, Sum 41's Dave Baksh, Simple Plan's Chuck Comeau and more.

Mike Bilcox, lead singer and guitarist of Ajax, Ontario’s second most famous pop-punk band, Not By Choice, passed away on June 21, at age 48.

Mike started Not By Choice with his Ajax High School friend Glenn ‘Chico’ Dunning back in 1997. They had initially played a few shows under different names that may or may not be suitable for print, but our moniker came from Mike bothering his younger sister Chrissy at the dinner table. When she couldn’t take any more of his taunting, she promptly told her Mom, Pat, that he was annoying her – Pat yelled ‘Well, he’s your brother!’ to which Chrissy quickly replied ‘Yeah, not by choice!’. With that, a real band was born.
