Katseye’s Lara says FLO inspired their harmonies and hopes for future collab

During an interview with Pop Base at Lollapalooza, Lara from global girl group KATSEYE praised UK’s R&B trio FLO as a major influence on their music style and vocal approach.

Lara described FLO’s harmonies, vocal runs, and overall singing as “so, so, so beautiful,” emphasizing how their precision and blend have inspired KATSEYE’s own creative process.

Lara expressed her admiration: “How many harmonies they do, their runs, their singing… I hope we get to do something like that with them one day.” Her remarks underscore KATSEYE’s respect for FLO’s artistry and their aspiration to potentially collaborate in the future.

KATSEYE continues to build its identity as a global girl group formed via HYBE and Geffen Records' The Debut: Dream Academy competition in 2023, blending K‑pop training with Western pop sensibilities. The group, consisting of Sophia, Manon, Daniela, Lara, Megan, and Yoonchae, has released hits like “Debut” and “Touch,” and are set to continue growing in both sonic ambition and global presence.

Lara’s comments reinforce a cultural thread in which rising pop acts look to established vocal groups for inspiration. FLO, known for their signature smooth harmonies and dynamic R&B hooks, represent a sound ideal that KATSEYE admires and aims to emulate. The connection suggests a mutual appreciation that could spark future industry crossover.

As KATSEYE tours and promotes upcoming releases including their EP Beautiful Chaos, fans will likely note the evolution in vocal layering and melodic complexity—elements clearly influenced by Lara’s admiration for FLO.
