Katseye Releases 'Animal' With Ed Sheeran Co-Writing and Demi Moore Cameo

The vocal-forward single signals a more mature pop direction as the group begins a cross-platform rollout toward an Aug. 14 EP release.

Overview

  • Katseye released the single and music video "Animal" on Friday, July 24, with heavy media and fan attention focused on its vocal-led sound and bold visuals.
  • The song was co-written by Ed Sheeran with Johnny McDaid, Blake Slatkin and Omer Fedi, and produced by Blake Slatkin and Omer Fedi.
  • The cinematic video stages the members in dual roles—performers and business executives—inside a red-lit room observed through one-way glass and features a surprise cameo from Demi Moore.
  • Member Manon Bannerman remains on hiatus and is not in the video, while the five-member lineup will include "Animal" on the five-track EP Wild, due Aug. 14, ahead of limited theatrical film screenings in mid-August and a tour that begins in September.
  • The release continues Katseye's global push from the HYBE × Geffen partnership and is designed to broaden mainstream reach by showcasing stronger vocal performance and high-profile collaborations that can drive streaming, ticket and film interest.
