Kirstin Maldonado cements a new chapter in her already hugely-successful career with the release of her debut solo EP L O V E, available now via RCA Records.
The Pentatonix member and three-time GRAMMY® Award-winning singer rebranded herself this past year as Kirstin, debuting a distinct new style when she surprise released the EP’s first track “Break a Little,” and its follow-up “All Night.”
The release of L O V E showcases Kirstin as a music powerhouse in her own right, as she blends her signature vocals with a fresh electronic production style. Her debut has already shot up the iTunes charts, clinching the No. 1 spot on the Pop albums chart and breaking the Top 10 in the overall charts at #7. The multiplatinum-selling singer will celebrate L O V E by making her broadcast performance debut as Kirstin, taking the TODAY Show stage to chat with Kathie Lee and Hoda and perform as Elvis Duran’s Artist of the Month on Wednesday, July 26th. The EP is available in-stores and to stream and purchase across all digital service providers.
“This EP is a coming-of-age story in terms of my confidence,” says Kirstin of her debut. “I really discovered myself and what I’m capable of through this process. I’m thankful for the challenges, because they’ve gotten me to where I am. I can take advantage of opportunities and be involved, present, and happy.”
Fans have been buzzing about Kirstin’s solo debut since the release of “Break a Little,” but the EP has already been met with critical praise as well. People Magazine included L O V E in their list of must-haves for the week, writing, “this six-song EP is more than a playground for vocal acrobatics,” and is packed with “electro-pop gems.”
Kirstin will celebrate the release of L O V E with fan signing and performance events in partnership with FYE, starting in Los Angeles, CA on Wednesday, July 19th at Universal CityWalk Hollywood. She will then head to the East Coast for a signing event in New York, NY on Wednesday, July 26th at Sony Square NYC.

About Kirstin Maldonado
Show-stopping vocals, charismatic confidence, and fighting spirit on full display, GRAMMY® Award-winning multiplatinum singer, songwriter, and one-fifth of Pentatonix Kirstin Maldonado emerges as a solo powerhouse on her debut EP [RCA Records]. Embracing a variety of electronic influences ranging from James Blake to Alina Baraz, she expresses a different side of herself, illuminating dancefloor-ready soundscapes with her seismic and stunning delivery. Kirstin started honing the voice millions know and love as a child in Arlington, TX. At 7-years-old, she went from singing Disney classics in front of the TV to flawlessly belting out a Shania Twain anthem during her mom’s wedding. Growing up, she devoted every minute to singing, remaining active in musical theater through college. On a whim, she and some friends auditioned for NBC’s The Sing-Off in 2011, and Pentatonix was born. Since then, the group has won three GRAMMY® Awards, received a Daytime Emmy® nomination, had seven albums reach top 10 on the Billboard 200 chart, sold out shows across the globe and starred in their own network Christmas Special. Their RIAA certified gold self-titled album debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart while That’s Christmas To Me has been certified double platinum and A Pentatonix Christmas certified platinum. 2017 sees her grow and evolve inside of the group and out.
