About hoshi

There are multiple artists with the name Hoshi. 1) Mathilde Gerner, known by her stage name Hoshi, is a French singer-songwriter, born 14 September 1996 in Versailles, Île-de-France. Gerner began her musical career with the amateur music group TransyStory, which was formed in September 2011. She provided vocals, keyboard, and guitar to this four-person group. The band occasionally put up municipal performances in Montigny-le-Bretonneux. The group played "Lou", their first recorded piece of music. Around the same time, in December 2011, Gerner alone competed in and won the "Jeunes Talents, c’est maintenant!" competition, organized by the city. During this competition, she was noticed by Marc Isacco, who was in charge of a musical section in Montigny. Through Isacco, she was able to meet established artists and perform in larger venues. TransyStory separated at the end of 2012 and Gerner continued her solo career. Being passionate about Japanese culture, she chose Hoshi Hideko as her stage name, later shortened to simply Hoshi (星), which means "star" in Japanese. She became known by publishing covers on the Internet and she received the support of the label Styiens. In 2013, at the age of 16, she was invited by the casting director of the French The Voice to compete. She successfully passed auditions but decided not to continue when the show's production wanted to control her song choice. Gerner left high school and devoted herself to music by performing in the streets. In 2014, she participated in the show Rising Star on the channel M6, but her cover of "Mistral gagnant" did not qualify her. She returned to singing in the streets, where she was able to try out compositions. She also performed solo for small concerts. She was contacted almost two years later by a manager, through whom she was signed by the label Jo & Co. 2) Kwon Soon-young (권순영; born June 15, 1996), professionally known by his stage name, Hoshi (호시), is a South Korean singer under Pledis Entertainment. He is a member of the boy group SEVENTEEN, the leader of its performance team, and part of its special unit BSS and HXW.
