The Untold Story of Scott Hoying, Pentatonix Star: My Son’s Journey To Find Harmony in Music and Life

The a cappella group Pentatonix, with their unique style, have revolutionized the music industry, making their sound an exciting new part of popular music and entertainment. Connie Hoying—the mother of the Grammy Award–winning cofounder of the group, Scott Hoying—writes about her son, from his childhood to today. Her writing style and storytelling ability are delightful, inspiring, and overflowing with her capacity for love. Scott was an uncommon child, having extraordinary musical talent and social and business savvy, but the incredible explosion of his talents into what they are today were no doubt possible because of the love of his mother, the support of the rest of his family, and his capacity to make friends. Connie details Scott’s coming out as gay in high school, her experiences of raising her son and his siblings, Pentatonix’s beginnings on The Sing-Off, and more, including Scott’s current life. The book’s value is not just in its recounting of Scott’s success in the music industry but also of his success as an individual, and because of the example of what parental love, acceptance, and support can do for a child. With a forward by Scott.
