    Pentatonix (abbreviated PTX) is an American a cappella group from Arlington, Texas, consisting of vocalists Scott Hoying, Mitch Grassi, Kirstin Maldonado, Kevin Olusola, and Matt Sallee. Characterized by their pop-style arrangements with vocal harmonies, basslines, riffing, percussion, and beatboxing, they produce cover versions of modern pop works.
    "Hallelujah" is a song written by Canadian singer Leonard Cohen, originally released on his album Various Positions.

    Yeah that is the standard Mitch face, this is the becoming the definitive cover of this song in my opinion. Great vid to react to...one thing just to listen for on a re-watch: when Avi takes the lead Scott switches to bass, he has something like a 4+octave range...they are all truly talented in their own right. Kevin also plays like 8 instruments and is classically trained on the cello...recommendation- Kirstin and her fiancee (at the time) do a Disney Love Medley with Voctave backing them. OUTRAGEOUS sopranos.

To this day they are sitll five of the most incredible vocalists there are. And yes love, when Mitch opens up, that is called a Mitchslap.

And your eyes open wide, your mouth drops open, and a look of utter astonishment comes over your face.

    I know this is a re-post, but you can see Kevin play cello while beat boxing in Pentatonix's "Radioactive" video. It's a collaboration with Lindsey Stirling on violin and, frankly, I think it's better than the original by Imagine Dragons.
    Also, check out Teddy Swims if you get the chance - Rock with you, I can't make you love me, You're still the one, etc.

    When the Pentatonixs collaborated (featured) with the well-known violinist Lindsey Sterling to record the music video "Radioactive," Kevin Olusola got the opportunity to do more than just sing or "beat-box." Kevin is seen playing the Cello, so 'yes' does play cello, but he seldom has such an opportunity when almost all of the Pentatonix music is a cappella.

    Kevin plays the cello in Shallow (beatboxes at the same time), Thank You, and Perfect (I may be forgetting some). He also plays the sax, and has played at Carnegie Hall. He also speaks Spanish and Mandarin, is an amazing beat boxer, tenor, song writer, and Yale graduate.

You pointed out how they accomplish certain affects, the strengths of each individual singer, and you did it in both of scholarly and easy to understand manner. As usual, your comments were educational, entertaining and helped me understand more about this group and in particular, how they are able to achieve such a wonderful blend of harmony.

    The tall blond guy is Scott Hoying-Baritone; the girl is Kirstin Maldonado, Mezzo-Soprano; the guy with the hat is Mitch Grassi, Counter-Tenor; the bearded guy with the turban, is Avi Kaplan, Basso-Profundo; and the Beatboxer is Kevin Olusola, Tenor/Cellist/Cellist Beatboxer. Scott, Kristen, and Mitch met in a high school in Arlington, TX (between Dallas and Ft. Worth, TX). After graduation they went to different colleges and majored in music. They got back together for a TV competition called "Sing-Off." They required 5-person groups, so Avi, and Kevin came on-board by referrals. There is no lead singer, as they all sing lead. The video is at the California Mojave Desert.
