Welcome to the voiceplay rabbit hole. You will find that they are very ready to have fun as they work and it shows. They have done medleys of Moana, Little mermaid and Wicked. They also do some serious stuff like My mother told me, warrior (imagine Dragons), Hoist the colours to name a few... Geoff Castellucci is the bass and has his own channel... Looking forward to the next one.. Subscribing in anticipation.
Layne the beatboxer is also one of the producers of pattycake production and made the episode of the "VILLAINS LAIR", you guys had reacted to on your channel. They have also done a moana, little mermaid and the greatest showman medley if you guys wanna check that out.
Whether you like Disney, Video game themes, or just popular music, VoicePlay have something for every taste and the bass, Geoff Castellucci, has his own channel doing low bass covers, again in various genres. They never disappoint. All the members are multi talented and do all the work themselves apart from the final edit of the video. You won't regret discoverng this amazing bunch of singers. And as a bonus you will gain subscribers by reacting to the videos. Me for one, but they have hundreds of devoted and loyal fans .
Welcome to Voiceplay. Theyve been around for 25 years. There are many songs to check out - If I were a rich man, Queen in 5 minutes, we're good, wicked medley, The Greatest Showman medley, Moana medley, the little mermaid medley, hoist the colours, Dragonborn comes, My mother told me, Bang, you're a mean one Mr Grinch etc. Also check out Geoff Castellucci's own channel (he's the low bass singer of the group) - God rest Ye merry gentlemen, Sixteen ton's, headless Horseman, Monster Mash, blackbird, take me home country roads, Big bad John etc.
Voice Play is one the acapella trifecta (with PTX and Home Free). They are all world class, and each has its own unique style. Favorites are: Warriors, Carry On Wayward Son, Hoist the Colours (EPIC), Little Mermaid Medley, The Wicked Medley, The Dragonborn Comes... and more!
Other suggestions: Queen in 5 Minutes; Boy Bands in 5 Minutes; Friends on the Other Side; Hoist the Colors; all of these are done with costumes. Tennessee Whiskey and Eleanor Rigby are not done in such a theatrical manner, but are beautiful. The woman singer (Ashley Diane) with them for Bruno was a guest, the group has historically been 5 guys, but they have brought in guests (when you see 'featuring' in the title) often for their videos. You'll see lots of different line-ups, Layne (beatboxer), Geoff (Bass) and bald-headed tenor Eli (pronounced Ellie for Eliezer, not EE-Lie) are the constants. Tony (tenor/baritone) and Earl (high tenor) were with them for a long time. Tony left and was replaced by J None, Earl then left and J None left last year to serve in the Navy. Cesar (guy with the umbrella in this video) joined and they are still looking for a fifth permanent position. (Layne, Geoff, Earl and Eli have known each other since high school). Layne and Geoff do almost all of their arrangements, Eli does a lot of the lighting. Geoff also started releasing solo videos when Covid shut down their tourting. Geoff (pronounced Jeff) Castellucci/Low Bass Singer
One of my favorite things is to see reactors see and hear Voiceplay for the first time! They are fantastic. They have lost two members in the last two years. You will see different members if you go back in time. To see the variety of what they can do, check out The Dragonborn Comes next; completely different feel from this.. The bass, Geoff (Jeff) Castellucci started a solo channel during the pandemic, you will love his work as well. Welcome to the rabbit hole!! I look forward to more!
First time!!!! Oh you poor sheltered people. You have soooo much to catch up on. VoicePlay is FANTASTIC!!!! I haven't found anything of theirs that I didn't love. Hope to see many more VP reactions. New Sub just for them. Also the Bass (Geoff Castellucci pronounced Jeff) has his own chanel you should check out. Personal fav's for VP. Carry On My Wayward Son the Halo theme song My Mother Told Me and the Oogie Boogie song from The nightmare before Christmas. Jeff's solo work favorites are 16 tons Take Me Home Country Roads The Monster Mash and the Headless Horseman. Someone once said of the big 3 acapella groups : Pentatonix are the student council VoicePlay are the theater kids and Home Free are the kids having a tailgate party on the football field.
Going quite a way back, their rendition of ELO's 'Mister Blue Sky' was awesome they even got the vocal guitar sound spot on. Unless they find someone like Earl again, I doubt they could do it now, you could hear Earls high notes doing a lot of the work in that.
There is a whole A Capella rabbit hole for reactions Voiceplay, Home Free and Pentatonix are the biggest, but there are others (Bass Gang, Backtrack, Filharmonic, & Voctave to name a Few). You will quicklysee the fanbases forthese groups are super awesome and interactive. Welcome, and if you react, we will come!
You have to check out anything from Voiceplay. The deep voice is Geoff Castalucci, he has some solo stuff, amazing. Also, check out a group called Homefree. You won't be disappointed.
Now that you have discovered VoicePlay, I hope you will stick with them. I'll watch every reaction to VoicePlay. The bass singer, Geoff Castellucci also does solo work that will blow your mind!
Great to have your reaction, thanks! Humor/comedy (like this one) has long been a strength, but in the last couple of years they've begun doing really epic theatrical performances as well. To see that side of their performances, you might want to check out Hoist the Colors (Pirates of the Caribbean) or Dragonborn Comes. But seriously, everything they do is great.
Welcome to VoicePlay! They are absolutely incredible with everything they do and just keep getting better. You can spend weeks in their catalog. They just came out with an incredible post-apocalyptic feeling version of Aerosmith's Dream On and blew my mind. So different from the original and mind blowing. Also check out If I Were a Rich Man/Girl, Eleanor Rigby, Moana Medley, Bang, Hoist the Colors......just watch ALL the VoicePlay LOL.
You both have some amazing music to catch up on. Geoff Castellucci (the bass singer in the group) also does solo work on his own channel which I suspect you be amazed by as well. The notes he hit for this weren't close to what he can do.
Awesome reaction. This group is from Orlando and many, if not all, have worked in the parks there whether it be Disney, Universal Studios or even Sea World. That theme park experience allows them to character act and sing very well and put a whole production together.
Love seeing people discover VoicePlay for the first time! They're awesome. My suggestion would be checking out their Hoist the Colours cover (from the 3rd Pirates of the Caribbean movie) or Boy Bands in 5 Minutes. The Little Mermaid Medley or Wicked medley are great as well.
I'd say go ahead and click on that "Hoist the Colors" video as it is phenomenal!! Love seeing people discover VoicePlay for the first time. Another of their numbers that includes Ashley Diane is "If I Were a Rich Man/Girl" and it's amazing too. It's an update to the Fiddler of the Roof classic. Really though, it's hard to go wrong with any of their stuff! Looking forward to more from you guys!
Fantastic reaction. Can you react to VoicePlays song. Warrior (imagine Dragons) please its amazing. Layne beatboxes while playing a violin at the same time xx
You pretty much can’t miss with anything VoicePlay does. They are based in Orlando and most of them have worked the theme park circuit so they do a lot of Disney and absolutely nail it. One of their common collaborators is Rachel Potter who was Ariel at Disney World for five years and has the perfect Disney princess voice. One of my favorites with her is the Little Mermaid medley. Bruno was arranged by the beat boxer who has a quirky sense of humor. In Mermaid, he makes Geoff , the bass, wear blue make up because he’s Ursula the Sea witch! They also do theatrical pieces similar to Hoist the Colours from Pirates and their amazing Dragonborn Comes from the video game. I’m not a gamer but the music is amazing. They also do a lot of pop and older works. I think one of the most beautiful arrangements is the cover of Elvis Presley’s I Can’t Help Falling in Love with You. They don’t do a lot of rock, it just isn’t usually suitable for a cappella work. But they did do a great cover of Carry on my Wayward Son from Kansas and Warriors from Imagine Dragons. If you check out Geoff’s personal channel, my two favorites are 16 Tons from Tennessee Ernie Ford, and Far over the Misty Mountains which is the dwarves song from the Hobbit. It’s the song they sing right before entering the mines of Moria and it is suitably deep. Subscribing in hopes that you will continue to cover VoicePlay and explore Geoff’s channel as well. If you do enjoy Disney I’d like to also recommend you check out PattyCake Productions. It is co owned by Layne, the beat boxer, and Tony Wakim who was their baritone from 2011 to 2016. They produce original works based on Disney productions, primarily the animated movies. They are scripted, composed, arranged, cast and costumed by them. It’s pretty amazing. Their newest is Villains from the Haunted House, which is the villains from the live action productions that Disney owns. (Some of them are from series that they have acquired like the Narnia series). It is a phenomenal piece of music plus it’s just entertaining!
Your first voiceplay song starts here? Nice. Welco e to modern acceppella. The rabbit hole is very deep with voiceplay, home free, penratonix, and voctave.
New subscriber since you're delving into one of the three best Acapella groups out there. VoicePlay, Home Free, and of course Pentatonix are in my opinion the penultimate groups. Welcome to the rabbit holes, you will undoubtedly love all three. VoicePlay currently has four members with a guest singer that varies until they choose a fifth. Next suggestion would be a Dragonborn Comes or Dream On.
First off, I'm thrilled that you found modern acapella music and that you enjoyed it. Next, I'm glad that your first experience with it was Voice Play, one of the three premier groups doing acapella today. Continuing, it's great that we, the audience and fans of this genre, didn't have to "yell" at you about wearing headphones. You'd be surprised how many reactors did their videos without them in the recent past. Lately, for this short list, welcome to the acapella rabbit hole. Some minor things to keep in mind, maybe. Yes, we're here for your reactions, we WANT to hear what you think of our favorite songs, group, arrangements...however, we'd like to also hear the song you're reacting to. Please, pause the video ( which will help with any copywrite issues that may crop up, too ) in order to make comments. That'll let us hear what you think, give us a beat to process what you have to say, and help you to process what you've heard. It will also let us experience the song WITH you, almost as though it's OUR first time all over again. That's the only "negative" thing I had to say. Your camera work is great, your sound, both for yourselves and the song, was clear and crisp, and I dig the setting. All in all, fun video.
The others are also good, but Voiceplay are the only ones to really go that extra mile with sets, make-up, costumes and even get into character for their videos. I believe Most of the members of Voiceplay are also good friends with the members of Home Free as well, I remember their Zombies and Survivors face off with Home Free.
Geoff Castellucci (the bass singer from Voiceplay) has a bunch of great solo stuff too. Full parts, but all recorded by himself. You should check out his Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold and Blackbird (gives you a good sense of his amazing range). th-cam.com/video/Erkv1-_xR7U/w-d-xo.html
I've seen a lot of reactions to Voiceplay stuff and you two were very pleasant to watch. Very genuine and such. I hope you do more Voiceplay and Geoff Castelluci stuff. :)
Their nickname is the "Theatre Kids". They always take it to the next level. I am a Voiceplay fan, like others, that follow reactions to their music. Great review. Welcome to the Voiceplay rabbit hole. Their bass, Geoff Castellucci, has his own channel too. Check out his latest "Big Bad John".
They are THE theatrical acapella group. Right now there are 4 regulars (J None went into the service and they may be waiting for him to return) and featured artists (spectacular). Geoff is the bass, Layne the beatboxer, Eli (like jelly) is the bald high tenor, and the newest member is Cesar (black guy). If you are going to be reacting to VoicePlay, I'm subscribing. I found them in midOctober last year because Geoff (Jeff) the bass here did a solo of the Monster Mash (my favorite Halloween song). I had to hear more...so I heard him do Blackbird, Take Me Home Country Roads, Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold and more. Then I turned to the group VoicePlay and was hopelessly lost. I have not heard a dud in the bunch. Check out Hoist the Colours (Pirates of the Caribbean 3), Oogie Boogie Song, Queen in 5 Minutes, Man in the Mirror, Halo (watch it all - learn some of VPs history), Dragonborn Comes Skyrim, Friends on the Other Side. Oh and Tennessee Whiskey and Just Sing (all the people they have sung with) and for Sing Off they did Road Trip which is a hoot. Enjoy and I'll have fun watching your amazement! Layne and and earlier member, Tony, own Pattycake Studios where much of the settings are done. You can hear Tony in Phantom of the Opera with Rachel Potter (a regular guest) - it's good. Geoff and Layne do the arranging, and he who arranges also does the video and audio editing.
When you watch Just Sing, be sure to turn on the captions to see more about all the amazing artists they work with. (As well as a little cheeky commentary.)
Anything you listen to from VoicePlay will be AMAZING. They are the theater/music geeks of the a capella world. Also, Geoff, the bass, has a solo channel. Also AWESOME.
In addition to what is already said, 1. Voiceplay is probably the most theatrical out of top acapella groups, and 2. You called Geoff's voice here deep (well, it is) but as they say, you ain't seen nothing yet 😉 try their Halo Theme and Toxic Audio's (Geoff used to sing with them) Grace Kelly. And, well, everything else by Voiceplay and Geoff's "solo", you will not be disappointed.
Surprise!! Aren’t they amazing! And they act as well as they sing!!! Layne (the beatboxer) did the arrangement on this one. You want another super fun one? Watch ‘Ding Dong’ with Lauren Paley (the Stairwell Siren of TikTok fame). It’s a Halloween song, with glorious acting and Disney Haunted Mansion themed characters. You will love it.
One unique thing about Voiceplay is that each member, and their occasional guest artist, always has several chances to shine individually. My own reccomendations include Carry on Wayward Son, Hoist the Colours, and The Little Mermaid Medley. Geoff Castellucci has his own channel and I would start with Blackbird, 16 Tons, and the Headless Horseman. Whatever you choose you won't be disappointed
Welcome to the voiceplay rabbit hole, it's a long way down but you tend to get comfortable there.😊 Voiceplay never disappoint, everything they do is entertaining. Even a serious song like "Baby It's Cold Outsside" has their particular brand of humour added, although it's very subtle. Most of the main productions take place in a studio co-owned by Layne, the beatboxer. He and Geoff (bass), do most of the video and audio editing and hand it off to a professional just for the final tweaks. Eli (pronounced "Elee" is the bald guy), He does all the lighting for the video shoots. Cesar is the tenor and the newest member of the group. They are looking for a 5th member and usually feature other artists to make up the 5th until then, but they will continue to feature other singers later on no doubt. Rachel Potter has her own channel and is quite often featured with them, many fans, including myself, wish she would join to be the 5th, but she has committments of her own. One recommendation I would give is "The Greatest Showman Medley" It just shows how committed they are because they built the whole set in the studio just to do that few minutes long video. th-cam.com/video/OfzpL-gwP4Y/w-d-xo.html
great you discovered voiceplay they have loads of adoring fans (yes me too!) just pick anyone of their tracks you fancy I seriously doubt you’ll be disappointed ❤️🏴
The 3 big acapella groups are Pentatonix, VoicePlay and Home Free. They are all old friends, constantly jumping into each other's videos. Definitely check them all out.
Ok Using Christine Stromberg's Comment; the Suggestions I will give you is this: Phantom, Moana, The Little Mermaid, The Dragonborn Comes, Grim Grinning Ghosts, Once upon a dream, Oogie Boogie Man, The Greatest showman Now this playlist showcases everything that they will do. Queen is all on its own.
Welcome to Planet VoicePlay there is so much to see and hear enjoy your trip please buckle up for safety and remember to keep both eyes and ears open they will surprise you!!
It’s great to see new reactors finding Voiceplay-they really are amazing! I hope you listen to this again on your own-there are a ton of little details that you miss first time through-you’ll be so caught up in one thing you’ve heard that you miss the next thing. Also, it’s worth checking the credits-sometimes they’re pretty funny. The closed captions can be priceless as well. Voiceplay is, top to bottom, left to right, Cesar de La Rosa-he’s the newest member and he’s amazing. Ashley Diane-featured guest-she’s worked with them before in If I Were A Rich Man/Girl, and I’m hoping it becomes a regular thing. Eli (ELee) Jacobson-he is not only a spectacular tenor but he also does the lighting for most of their videos and it’s amazing (when you rewatch this, pay attention to what’s going on with the lights). Bottom row, Geoff (Jeff) Castellucci, the bass. He has a solo channel that’s also pretty amazing. And finally, the beatboxer, Layne Stein, who also did the arrangement for this (he and Geoff trade off). You wouldn’t know this but we hardly ever get to hear Layne sing, and it’s always a treat. I recommend another recent release-The Dragonborn Comes, from the game Skyrim, Hoist the Colours, Oogie Boogie’s Song, If I Were a Rich Man/Girl and Little Mermaid Medley. Also, on Geoff’s channel, Sixteen Tons. These are suggestions-pretty much everything they do is terrific. These guys could keep you busy for quite awhile.
Oh you did it now! Now you have to react to everything from VoicePlay and Geoff Castellucci who is the bass. He has his own channel and does phenomenal bass covers of songs. The Rabbit Hole is deep and fun! You will enjoy the journey and us fans will love to come along for the ride!
Yes more VoicePlay. The bass Geoff Castellucci does solo stuff as well. The beatboxer Layne Stein is co owner of PattyCake Productions with a older member of VoicePlay Tony Wakim.
As soon as you said that you'd be checking out Voiceplay in-depth, I subscribed. You HAVE to listen to their "Hoist the Colours", "Warrior", "Bang", "The Little Mermaid Medley", "Moana Medley", and "Go the Distance"
If you like the theatrics, VoicePlay has you covered. The first really good, really theatrical thing they did was Phantom of the Opera. Also definitely don't miss Queen in 5 Minutes -- it's amazing even if you're not a Queen fan. A couple of them also have solo channels; the most notable of these is Geoff Castellucci, the basso profondo. Definitely check out his cover of 16 Tons. VoicePlay is particularly good to do around the holidays. Their Halloween-themed stuff is consistently amazing, and they have some great Christmas stuff too, e.g., their cover of You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch is the best one I have encountered; and yes, I've seen Pentatonix' and Voctave's covers of the same song; VoicePlay's is better.
Voiceplay are awesome (like Pentatonix that i also recommand you by the way) , there is "If i was a rich man" , "Hoise the colour" (from Pirates of the Caribbean : world's end). You've discovered Geoff with his low low low octave style and all the crew.
Voiceplay are AWESOME! They started off great, but over the years they've been exponentially upping their game, and they're now easily my favourite of The big Acapella Triad (them, Home Free and Pentatonix.) They also do a large amount of the production of both music and video themselves. They've had a few member changes over the years, so you'll see different people depending on how far back in their catalogue you go, but you'll mostly see Geoff (the awesome bass guy,) Layne (the beatbox guy) and Eli (pronounced 'Elly' - the bald guy.) Cesar is the other tenor in this video -- he's their newest member and he's amazing, and then, for the last couple of years they have their fifth spot as a guest appearance from various different artists (in this one it was Ashley Diane, the young lady.) Other recommendations from their catalogue: 'Hoist The Colors,' 'The Dragonborn Comes,' 'Queen in Five Minutes,' 'Boybands in Five Minutes,' 'Dream On,' 'This Is Halloween' and 'The Oogie Boogie Song.' There are loads more as well.
Nice review. From Voiceplay, I would recommend The Dragonborn Comes, Hoist the Colors, The Oogie Boogie Song to name but a few (but anything in their catalog will be enjoyable)
You need to watch everything :) But if you want a nice variety of what Voiceplay offers then I would suggest; True colours, Oogie Boogie, Queen medley, Halo theme, Moana medley, tennesse whiskey and Carry on Wayward son.
Oh sweeties, you've but scratched the surface of the capabilities of Voiceplay. They have a pretty good library of videos dating back several years. They go back as far as Pentatonix but haven't made it as big as PTX......yet. Geoff, the bass singer has an absolutely insane range that isn't human. He also has his own channel with his own videos you HAVE to check out as well.
Also their Moana Medley, Hoist the Colors, If I Were a Rich Man/Girl for just a few. This is the theatrical group of the a capella world. The pop group is, of course, Pentatonix. Home Free would be the more country genre, while the choral group (no beatboxing) is Voctave. Those are the 4 most popular a capella groups out there and you really can't go wrong with any of them.
Yes you reacted to voiceplay!! They are amazing. I would recommend the oogie boogie song and the mermaid medley!
Dont forget Dragonborne Comes!
When it comes to the Oogie Boogie song, females need to strap in tight.
Yaz! And the Moana medley is amazing too!
@@danfarrik yes!! They need to react to this melody!
Obviously oogie boogie would be an amazing choice!!
#TheatreKidsOfACappella. Welcome to the rabbit hole that is VoicePlay. Anything VoicePlay I'm here for.
Welcome to Voice Play! They are wonderful.
Welcome to the voiceplay rabbit hole. You will find that they are very ready to have fun as they work and it shows. They have done medleys of Moana, Little mermaid and Wicked. They also do some serious stuff like My mother told me, warrior (imagine Dragons), Hoist the colours to name a few... Geoff Castellucci is the bass and has his own channel... Looking forward to the next one.. Subscribing in anticipation.
yeah watching Voiceplay is a must... oh and Geoff has a lot solostuff 2.
there are,....in the neighborhood of 160-170 videos by VoicePlay.......welcome to their rollercoaster, down their 'rabbithole' you go............>^^
Yes please more voiceplay reaction! Great reaction!
Layne the beatboxer is also one of the producers of pattycake production and made the episode of the "VILLAINS LAIR", you guys had reacted to on your channel. They have also done a moana, little mermaid and the greatest showman medley if you guys wanna check that out.

Thousands! I think there are over 1000 patrons now !!!!!
@@janetdw You're absolutely right. I don't know what I was thinking LOL
Welcome to Voiceplay. Theyve been around for 25 years. There are many songs to check out - If I were a rich man, Queen in 5 minutes, we're good, wicked medley, The Greatest Showman medley, Moana medley, the little mermaid medley, hoist the colours, Dragonborn comes, My mother told me, Bang, you're a mean one Mr Grinch etc.
Also check out Geoff Castellucci's own channel (he's the low bass singer of the group) - God rest Ye merry gentlemen, Sixteen ton's, headless Horseman, Monster Mash, blackbird, take me home country roads, Big bad John etc.
Great reaction! Excited to see more Voiceplay reviews. Thanks!

seriously. you have to watch Voiceplay's Hoist the Colours! These guys really get into the dramatic
The Oogie Boogie Song from the Nightmare Before Christmas.
Please go down the rabbit hole - and check out some of Geoff's solo work (bassist).
One of my favorite things is to see reactors see and hear Voiceplay for the first time! They are fantastic. They have lost two members in the last two years. You will see different members if you go back in time.
To see the variety of what they can do, check out The Dragonborn Comes next; completely different feel from this..
The bass, Geoff (Jeff) Castellucci started a solo channel during the pandemic, you will love his work as well.
Welcome to the rabbit hole!! I look forward to more!
First time!!!! Oh you poor sheltered people. You have soooo much to catch up on. VoicePlay is FANTASTIC!!!! I haven't found anything of theirs that I didn't love. Hope to see many more VP reactions. New Sub just for them.
Also the Bass (Geoff Castellucci pronounced Jeff) has his own chanel you should check out.
Personal fav's for VP.
Carry On My Wayward Son
the Halo theme song
My Mother Told Me
and the Oogie Boogie song from The nightmare before Christmas.
Jeff's solo work favorites are
16 tons
Take Me Home Country Roads The Monster Mash
and the Headless Horseman.
Someone once said of the big 3 acapella groups :
Pentatonix are the student council VoicePlay are the theater kids and Home Free are the kids having a tailgate party on the football field.
Going quite a way back, their rendition of ELO's 'Mister Blue Sky' was awesome they even got the vocal guitar sound spot on. Unless they find someone like Earl again, I doubt they could do it now, you could hear Earls high notes doing a lot of the work in that.
they are known as the theater kids of Acapella for a reason lol
Welcome to the VoicePlay / Geoff Castellucci rabbit hole! They are amazing in everything they do! You won't be disappointed! 🔥
Welcome to the Voiceplay rabbit hole!
There is a whole A Capella rabbit hole for reactions Voiceplay, Home Free and Pentatonix are the biggest, but there are others (Bass Gang, Backtrack, Filharmonic, & Voctave to name a Few). You will quicklysee the fanbases forthese groups are super awesome and interactive. Welcome, and if you react, we will come!
Little mermaid medley is awesome!!!!
Loved the reaction. Check out Dragonborn Comes which was their most recent one besides this to get a good idea of the range of music they cover.
You have to check out anything from Voiceplay. The deep voice is Geoff Castalucci, he has some solo stuff, amazing. Also, check out a group called Homefree. You won't be disappointed.
Now that you have discovered VoicePlay, I hope you will stick with them. I'll watch every reaction to VoicePlay. The bass singer, Geoff Castellucci also does solo work that will blow your mind!
You saw the thumbnail for their Hoist the Colors cover right at the end there, that would be another epic one to check out next!!
everything Voiceplay is great!
Voice Play is my favorite and Geoff is my fav bass singer. Check out his solo material. This man's range is INSANE. I enjoyed watching you two.
Their Wicked medley is FANTASTIC! Well, all their stuff is 😁 You won't go wrong with Voiceplay.
I love seeing new voiceplay reactions. They have NO bad songs!
Great to have your reaction, thanks! Humor/comedy (like this one) has long been a strength, but in the last couple of years they've begun doing really epic theatrical performances as well. To see that side of their performances, you might want to check out Hoist the Colors (Pirates of the Caribbean) or Dragonborn Comes. But seriously, everything they do is great.
Welcome to VoicePlay! They are absolutely incredible with everything they do and just keep getting better. You can spend weeks in their catalog. They just came out with an incredible post-apocalyptic feeling version of Aerosmith's Dream On and blew my mind. So different from the original and mind blowing. Also check out If I Were a Rich Man/Girl, Eleanor Rigby, Moana Medley, Bang, Hoist the Colors......just watch ALL the VoicePlay LOL.
You both have some amazing music to catch up on. Geoff Castellucci (the bass singer in the group) also does solo work on his own channel which I suspect you be amazed by as well. The notes he hit for this weren't close to what he can do.
Welcome to the VP rabbit hole! You're ears are in for a fantastic feast!!!
Awesome reaction. This group is from Orlando and many, if not all, have worked in the parks there whether it be Disney, Universal Studios or even Sea World. That theme park experience allows them to character act and sing very well and put a whole production together.
Welcome to the Voiceplay train. This group is amazing. I would love to pop back for more reactions.
Love seeing people discover VoicePlay for the first time! They're awesome. My suggestion would be checking out their Hoist the Colours cover (from the 3rd Pirates of the Caribbean movie) or Boy Bands in 5 Minutes. The Little Mermaid Medley or Wicked medley are great as well.
I'd say go ahead and click on that "Hoist the Colors" video as it is phenomenal!! Love seeing people discover VoicePlay for the first time. Another of their numbers that includes Ashley Diane is "If I Were a Rich Man/Girl" and it's amazing too. It's an update to the Fiddler of the Roof classic. Really though, it's hard to go wrong with any of their stuff! Looking forward to more from you guys!
Voiceplay has such a good library of content. They’re theater kids and all incredibly talented. Look at their cover of Hoist The Colors!
Fantastic reaction. Can you react to VoicePlays song. Warrior (imagine Dragons) please its amazing. Layne beatboxes while playing a violin at the same time xx
You pretty much can’t miss with anything VoicePlay does. They are based in Orlando and most of them have worked the theme park circuit so they do a lot of Disney and absolutely nail it.
One of their common collaborators is Rachel Potter who was Ariel at Disney World for five years and has the perfect Disney princess voice. One of my favorites with her is the Little Mermaid medley. Bruno was arranged by the beat boxer who has a quirky sense of humor. In Mermaid, he makes Geoff , the bass, wear blue make up because he’s Ursula the Sea witch!
They also do theatrical pieces similar to Hoist the Colours from Pirates and their amazing Dragonborn Comes from the video game. I’m not a gamer but the music is amazing.
They also do a lot of pop and older works. I think one of the most beautiful arrangements is the cover of Elvis Presley’s I Can’t Help Falling in Love with You.
They don’t do a lot of rock, it just isn’t usually suitable for a cappella work. But they did do a great cover of Carry on my Wayward Son from Kansas and Warriors from Imagine Dragons.
If you check out Geoff’s personal channel, my two favorites are 16 Tons from Tennessee Ernie Ford, and Far over the Misty Mountains which is the dwarves song from the Hobbit. It’s the song they sing right before entering the mines of Moria and it is suitably deep.
Subscribing in hopes that you will continue to cover VoicePlay and explore Geoff’s channel as well.
If you do enjoy Disney I’d like to also recommend you check out PattyCake Productions. It is co owned by Layne, the beat boxer, and Tony Wakim who was their baritone from 2011 to 2016. They produce original works based on Disney productions, primarily the animated movies. They are scripted, composed, arranged, cast and costumed by them. It’s pretty amazing. Their newest is Villains from the Haunted House, which is the villains from the live action productions that Disney owns. (Some of them are from series that they have acquired like the Narnia series). It is a phenomenal piece of music plus it’s just entertaining!
Your first voiceplay song starts here? Nice. Welco e to modern acceppella. The rabbit hole is very deep with voiceplay, home free, penratonix, and voctave.
New subscriber since you're delving into one of the three best Acapella groups out there. VoicePlay, Home Free, and of course Pentatonix are in my opinion the penultimate groups. Welcome to the rabbit holes, you will undoubtedly love all three. VoicePlay currently has four members with a guest singer that varies until they choose a fifth. Next suggestion would be a Dragonborn Comes or Dream On.
Great reaction! I think you would love their "Little Mermaid Medley" and "Hoist The Colours". They do Disney so well!
Voiceplay Hoist the colors and oogie boogie is really good
First off, I'm thrilled that you found modern acapella music and that you enjoyed it. Next, I'm glad that your first experience with it was Voice Play, one of the three premier groups doing acapella today. Continuing, it's great that we, the audience and fans of this genre, didn't have to "yell" at you about wearing headphones. You'd be surprised how many reactors did their videos without them in the recent past. Lately, for this short list, welcome to the acapella rabbit hole.
Some minor things to keep in mind, maybe. Yes, we're here for your reactions, we WANT to hear what you think of our favorite songs, group, arrangements...however, we'd like to also hear the song you're reacting to. Please, pause the video ( which will help with any copywrite issues that may crop up, too ) in order to make comments. That'll let us hear what you think, give us a beat to process what you have to say, and help you to process what you've heard. It will also let us experience the song WITH you, almost as though it's OUR first time all over again. That's the only "negative" thing I had to say.
Your camera work is great, your sound, both for yourselves and the song, was clear and crisp, and I dig the setting. All in all, fun video.
The others are also good, but Voiceplay are the only ones to really go that extra mile with sets, make-up, costumes and even get into character for their videos.
I believe Most of the members of Voiceplay are also good friends with the members of Home Free as well, I remember their Zombies and Survivors face off with Home Free.
Geoff Castellucci (the bass singer from Voiceplay) has a bunch of great solo stuff too. Full parts, but all recorded by himself. You should check out his Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold and Blackbird (gives you a good sense of his amazing range). th-cam.com/video/Erkv1-_xR7U/w-d-xo.html
And Shenandoah.
I've seen a lot of reactions to Voiceplay stuff and you two were very pleasant to watch. Very genuine and such. I hope you do more Voiceplay and Geoff Castelluci stuff. :)
Their nickname is the "Theatre Kids". They always take it to the next level. I am a Voiceplay fan, like others, that follow reactions to their music. Great review. Welcome to the Voiceplay rabbit hole. Their bass, Geoff Castellucci, has his own channel too. Check out his latest "Big Bad John".
They are THE theatrical acapella group. Right now there are 4 regulars (J None went into the service and they may be waiting for him to return) and featured artists (spectacular). Geoff is the bass, Layne the beatboxer, Eli (like jelly) is the bald high tenor, and the newest member is Cesar (black guy). If you are going to be reacting to VoicePlay, I'm subscribing. I found them in midOctober last year because Geoff (Jeff) the bass here did a solo of the Monster Mash (my favorite Halloween song). I had to hear more...so I heard him do Blackbird, Take Me Home Country Roads, Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold and more. Then I turned to the group VoicePlay and was hopelessly lost. I have not heard a dud in the bunch. Check out Hoist the Colours (Pirates of the Caribbean 3), Oogie Boogie Song, Queen in 5 Minutes, Man in the Mirror, Halo (watch it all - learn some of VPs history), Dragonborn Comes Skyrim, Friends on the Other Side. Oh and Tennessee Whiskey and Just Sing (all the people they have sung with) and for Sing Off they did Road Trip which is a hoot. Enjoy and I'll have fun watching your amazement!
Layne and and earlier member, Tony, own Pattycake Studios where much of the settings are done. You can hear Tony in Phantom of the Opera with Rachel Potter (a regular guest) - it's good. Geoff and Layne do the arranging, and he who arranges also does the video and audio editing.
When you watch Just Sing, be sure to turn on the captions to see more about all the amazing artists they work with. (As well as a little cheeky commentary.)
Anything you listen to from VoicePlay will be AMAZING. They are the theater/music geeks of the a capella world. Also, Geoff, the bass, has a solo channel. Also AWESOME.
In addition to what is already said, 1. Voiceplay is probably the most theatrical out of top acapella groups, and 2. You called Geoff's voice here deep (well, it is) but as they say, you ain't seen nothing yet 😉 try their Halo Theme and Toxic Audio's (Geoff used to sing with them) Grace Kelly. And, well, everything else by Voiceplay and Geoff's "solo", you will not be disappointed.
Surprise!! Aren’t they amazing! And they act as well as they sing!!! Layne (the beatboxer) did the arrangement on this one. You want another super fun one? Watch ‘Ding Dong’ with Lauren Paley (the Stairwell Siren of TikTok fame). It’s a Halloween song, with glorious acting and Disney Haunted Mansion themed characters. You will love it.
One unique thing about Voiceplay is that each member, and their occasional guest artist, always has several chances to shine individually. My own reccomendations include Carry on Wayward Son, Hoist the Colours, and The Little Mermaid Medley. Geoff Castellucci has his own channel and I would start with Blackbird, 16 Tons, and the Headless Horseman. Whatever you choose you won't be disappointed
VoicePlay uses no instruments, and they are amazing. Please do watch more of their performances. You will never be sorry :)
Great job guys! I loved your reaction! VP is absolutely incredible and I hope you react to more of them and Geoff Castellucci, their bass singer.
You should react to voiceplay moana medley
Their Oogie Boogie Song is a must!
Welcome to the voiceplay rabbit hole, it's a long way down but you tend to get comfortable there.😊
Voiceplay never disappoint, everything they do is entertaining. Even a serious song like "Baby It's Cold Outsside" has their particular brand of humour added, although it's very subtle.
Most of the main productions take place in a studio co-owned by Layne, the beatboxer. He and Geoff (bass), do most of the video and audio editing and hand it off to a professional just for the final tweaks. Eli (pronounced "Elee" is the bald guy), He does all the lighting for the video shoots. Cesar is the tenor and the newest member of the group. They are looking for a 5th member and usually feature other artists to make up the 5th until then, but they will continue to feature other singers later on no doubt. Rachel Potter has her own channel and is quite often featured with them, many fans, including myself, wish she would join to be the 5th, but she has committments of her own.
One recommendation I would give is "The Greatest Showman Medley" It just shows how committed they are because they built the whole set in the studio just to do that few minutes long video. th-cam.com/video/OfzpL-gwP4Y/w-d-xo.html
Please, check hoist the colors, is a great start to voice play. They are great!
I can see that you love them as much as I do! Check out more VP please ❤
That was beautiful!
Voiceplay’s Warriors is epic! Also their Queen in 5 minutes!
great you discovered voiceplay they have loads of adoring fans (yes me too!) just pick anyone of their tracks you fancy I seriously doubt you’ll be disappointed ❤️🏴
The 3 big acapella groups are Pentatonix, VoicePlay and Home Free. They are all old friends, constantly jumping into each other's videos. Definitely check them all out.
Welcome to Voiceplay! They are the Broadway of acapella and by far my favorite group.
Voiceplay rabbit hooooooooooooooooole...
I love when Geoff says, "It's like I hear him". I love his voice
Ok Using Christine Stromberg's Comment; the Suggestions I will give you is this:
Phantom, Moana, The Little Mermaid, The Dragonborn Comes, Grim Grinning Ghosts, Once upon a dream, Oogie Boogie Man, The Greatest showman
Now this playlist showcases everything that they will do. Queen is all on its own.
SO glad i found this reaction. Will be here for youre voiceplay journey yall are so fun!!
Geoff (the bass) is playing Camilo the ShapeShifter, hence his switch from Bruno to her & back. :)
Welcome to Planet VoicePlay there is so much to see and hear enjoy your trip please buckle up for safety and remember to keep both eyes and ears open they will surprise you!!
"Hoist The Colours" and "Dragonborn Comes-Skyrim". EPIC!
It’s great to see new reactors finding Voiceplay-they really are amazing! I hope you listen to this again on your own-there are a ton of little details that you miss first time through-you’ll be so caught up in one thing you’ve heard that you miss the next thing. Also, it’s worth checking the credits-sometimes they’re pretty funny. The closed captions can be priceless as well.
Voiceplay is, top to bottom, left to right, Cesar de La Rosa-he’s the newest member and he’s amazing. Ashley Diane-featured guest-she’s worked with them before in If I Were A Rich Man/Girl, and I’m hoping it becomes a regular thing. Eli (ELee) Jacobson-he is not only a spectacular tenor but he also does the lighting for most of their videos and it’s amazing (when you rewatch this, pay attention to what’s going on with the lights). Bottom row, Geoff (Jeff) Castellucci, the bass. He has a solo channel that’s also pretty amazing. And finally, the beatboxer, Layne Stein, who also did the arrangement for this (he and Geoff trade off). You wouldn’t know this but we hardly ever get to hear Layne sing, and it’s always a treat.
I recommend another recent release-The Dragonborn Comes, from the game Skyrim, Hoist the Colours, Oogie Boogie’s Song, If I Were a Rich Man/Girl and Little Mermaid Medley. Also, on Geoff’s channel, Sixteen Tons. These are suggestions-pretty much everything they do is terrific.
These guys could keep you busy for quite awhile.
Oh you did it now! Now you have to react to everything from VoicePlay and Geoff Castellucci who is the bass. He has his own channel and does phenomenal bass covers of songs. The Rabbit Hole is deep and fun! You will enjoy the journey and us fans will love to come along for the ride!
VoicePlay did a couple of goodies, Classical Chaos, Thriller, Be Prepared, Stand By Me.
Yes more VoicePlay. The bass Geoff Castellucci does solo stuff as well. The beatboxer Layne Stein is co owner of PattyCake Productions with a older member of VoicePlay Tony Wakim.
As soon as you said that you'd be checking out Voiceplay in-depth, I subscribed. You HAVE to listen to their "Hoist the Colours", "Warrior", "Bang", "The Little Mermaid Medley", "Moana Medley", and "Go the Distance"
Please, please, please go down the VoicePlay rabbit hole! My fave group on TH-cam! Dream On, Hoist the Colours, The Dragonborn Comes!
Please react to more Voiceplay and other groups like: Pentatonix, Voctave, Home Free, Filharmonic and Acapop Kids
If you like the theatrics, VoicePlay has you covered. The first really good, really theatrical thing they did was Phantom of the Opera. Also definitely don't miss Queen in 5 Minutes -- it's amazing even if you're not a Queen fan.
A couple of them also have solo channels; the most notable of these is Geoff Castellucci, the basso profondo. Definitely check out his cover of 16 Tons.
VoicePlay is particularly good to do around the holidays. Their Halloween-themed stuff is consistently amazing, and they have some great Christmas stuff too, e.g., their cover of You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch is the best one I have encountered; and yes, I've seen Pentatonix' and Voctave's covers of the same song; VoicePlay's is better.
Voiceplay are awesome (like Pentatonix that i also recommand you by the way) , there is "If i was a rich man" , "Hoise the colour" (from Pirates of the Caribbean : world's end). You've discovered Geoff with his low low low octave style and all the crew.
If you like this, I would 100% checking out the "Halo Theme". Geoff's low notes, Eli and Cesar's highs, the beatboxing, its crazy!!!
Voiceplay is my fav! it'll be awesome to see you react to them
These peeps are amazing
Voiceplay are AWESOME! They started off great, but over the years they've been exponentially upping their game, and they're now easily my favourite of The big Acapella Triad (them, Home Free and Pentatonix.) They also do a large amount of the production of both music and video themselves. They've had a few member changes over the years, so you'll see different people depending on how far back in their catalogue you go, but you'll mostly see Geoff (the awesome bass guy,) Layne (the beatbox guy) and Eli (pronounced 'Elly' - the bald guy.) Cesar is the other tenor in this video -- he's their newest member and he's amazing, and then, for the last couple of years they have their fifth spot as a guest appearance from various different artists (in this one it was Ashley Diane, the young lady.)
Other recommendations from their catalogue: 'Hoist The Colors,' 'The Dragonborn Comes,' 'Queen in Five Minutes,' 'Boybands in Five Minutes,' 'Dream On,' 'This Is Halloween' and 'The Oogie Boogie Song.' There are loads more as well.
Nice review. From Voiceplay, I would recommend The Dragonborn Comes, Hoist the Colors, The Oogie Boogie Song to name but a few (but anything in their catalog will be enjoyable)
You need to watch everything :)
But if you want a nice variety of what Voiceplay offers then I would suggest;
True colours, Oogie Boogie, Queen medley, Halo theme, Moana medley, tennesse whiskey and Carry on Wayward son.
VoicePlay virgins. So, so many songs and theatrical productions to enjoy for the first time. Luck you.
Oh sweeties, you've but scratched the surface of the capabilities of Voiceplay. They have a pretty good library of videos dating back several years. They go back as far as Pentatonix but haven't made it as big as PTX......yet. Geoff, the bass singer has an absolutely insane range that isn't human. He also has his own channel with his own videos you HAVE to check out as well.
Check out Voiceplay’s “Wicked” Medley. That one blows my mind.
Welcome to the Voiceplay “rabbit hole”. I see this is from a year ago, so you know by now :) .
Tye and Katie, right? Keep going. This is an amazing channel.
Also their Moana Medley, Hoist the Colors, If I Were a Rich Man/Girl for just a few. This is the theatrical group of the a capella world. The pop group is, of course, Pentatonix. Home Free would be the more country genre, while the choral group (no beatboxing) is Voctave. Those are the 4 most popular a capella groups out there and you really can't go wrong with any of them.
welcome to voiceplay!! i recommend you the deagonborn comes and boy bands in 5 minutes
They are so good! Some suggestions: Oogie Boogie Song, Moana Medley, Dragonborn Comes, My Mother Told Me, Hoist the Colours
Welcome to the Voiceplay rabbit hole 🤣🤣🤣🤣
React “Júlia vitória - Além do rio azul” please!!!
My suggestions for Voiceplay: everything. You cannot go wrong with their videos at all. React to everything.
