This past Thursday, the a capella supergroup Pentatonix began a holiday-related teaser countdown that had us all eager about a new album or a possible tour… well, we’re getting both!

All was revealed this morning when the three-time Grammy® Award-winning and multi-platinum selling group announced a greatest hits holiday album, The Best of Pentatonix Christmas, as well as a 16-date nationwide Christmas tour — A Pentatonix Christmas 2019 Tour!

Beginning on November 30th, PTX’s Kevin Olusola, Kirstin Maldonado, Scott Hoying, Mitch Grassi and Matt Sallee will visit places like New York City, Boston, Philadelphia, Fairfax, Sugar Land, and more, to spread Christmas cheer with their renditions of holiday classics and a few original songs!

It feels like it was just yesterday that we were at the 6 month mark… then we blinked… and it turned into 100 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!! Just imagine how quickly these days will fly! I love awaiting the Christmas season but, I also really love fall… it feels like a new beginning… so, I’m looking forward to enjoying all that autumn has to offer while also planning for ‘the most wonderful time of the year’.

If you follow me on Facebook or Twitter then you’ll know once it hits 125 days, I begin posting a Christmas Song of the Day every day until Little Christmas on January 6th. In honor of the one-hundred day mark, I thought I’d post it here as well for you to sing along and enjoy.

I know the days will soon get shorter, but let’s make our holiday cheer last forever. 🎄✨
