Michele Amabile Angermiller Stars have been a theme throughout Pentatonix’s career. The a cappella group covered Nicki Minaj’s “Starships” early on, performed “Stars” from the musical “Finding Neverland,” and named their holiday television special “Christmas Under the Stars.” So it’s only fitting that the group — comprised of Scott Hoying, Kirstin Maldonado, Mitch Grassi, Kevin Olusola and Matt Sallee — will be honored with their very own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Feb.

21. More than a decade after forming, Pentatonix — a play on the pentatonic scale — became the first a cappella group to win a Grammy for arrangement with a sublime medley of Daft Punk songs in 2015.

The group earned two more Grammys including 2016’s country duo/group performance for their duet with Dolly Parton on “Jolene,” and most recently, their album “Evergreen” was nominated for traditional pop vocal album at the 2023 awards. “We love all of our album experiences, but something about this one was really special, because it was right at the end of lockdown and we were able to get together again for the first time in over a year,” Hoying says of “Evergreen.” Believing their “Grammy days were done,” Hoying continues, “We went into a studio every single day and built the songs together and it had this beautiful, creative, visceral energy to it. … To reunite and make something so special and then see it be validated in this way is a reminder that it’s never pasture time.

There’s always the possibility for new beginnings and epic moments.” Since its inception, the group has sold more than 10 million albums from a catalog of 11 full-lengths, including six holiday collections.
