Lara
The powerhouse voice with the confidence to make a run sound less like decoration and more like a dare.
Early life
Lara grew up in the United States in a creative Indian-American family. She sang and performed before joining the competition that became The Debut: Dream Academy, where her voice quickly separated her from the field.
Career
2023: Competed in The Debut: Dream Academy and earned a place in KATSEYE.
2024: Debuted with “Debut,” followed by “Touch” and the EP SIS (Soft Is Strong).
2025–present: Continued through the group’s faster, stranger, more performance-heavy era.
In KATSEYE
Lara is one of KATSEYE’s clearest vocal anchors. Her tone adds weight and her offstage confidence gives the group a member who rarely seems afraid of the camera.
RaeRae take: She sings like the note annoyed her first.
