    You are several years behind the times. LOL. They are a 3 time Grammy award winning group. They started in 2011 when they won The Sing Off, an a cappella singing competition. They have been going strong ever since with both covers, (upgrades), and originals. There has only been one member change in all those years. Their original bass, Avi Kaplan, left in 2017 and Matt Sallee joined in 2018. While the others may look different from one video to the next, they are the original members. Please continue down this rabbit hole. I subbed for more reactions. They have more than 200 videos. The Prayer, Imagine, Thrift Shop, Bohemian Rhapsody, Come Along, Hallelujah, Sing, (original), and they are very well known for their Christmas music. You can’t go wrong with anything you choose. Just pick something that interests you. Enjoy the ride and all of us Pentaholics will come along with you. 💕💕

    To gain more subs I would suggest doing their version of Hallelujah. It has over 700 million views and they have over 20 million subs. If you go down their rabbit hole the "pentaholics" will show up. Subbed for more PTX.

    About the clarity of their voices....their vocal production guy (Ed Boyer) specializes in a capella & is known for being able to pull each voice forward without muddying the sound. There are interviews floating around that are really interesting. One of the best ones is with Jacob Restituto, if you are interested. I always enjoy watching people discover the magic that is Pentatonix. I hope you will do more!

    Frequently it's best to watch their videos six times, one time through for each member, concentrating on that singer, and the sixth time to just let the harmonies wash over you.

    It's always great to watch a reactor discover PTX. What is even better is watching them really dig into the Pentatonix vast music catalog, both covers and originals and become one of us, Pentaholics. We are loyal, to the point of obsession. We joyfully share our knowledge with you and we bring large numbers of the fan base to your channel, the moment we are alerted to someone new experiencing PTX for the first time. Your choice of songs is huge. The creativity of arrangement, the TALENT and the stunning voice range of every member will take you on a ride full of surprise, frequent disbelief and always wanting more. Experiencing their evolution as artists leaves you wondering what else could this group possibly do? And then, every single time they show you.
    Pentatonix takes you to a whole new level and never stops raising the bar.
    💛💚🩵💙❤️

      @rfiliagaful ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Actually Avi was their bass for their first 5 years - he was the one in this group with the beard. For the last almost 7 years Matt Sallee has been their bass. So, when you see more recent songs (Amazing Grace, Sound of Silence, 90's Dance Medley, Mad World...) You'll see their current bass.

    @bfly5990 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Penta. Means five. As in pentagon is a five sided building
    Pentatonic is a five note scale hence their name 5 equal voices in different ranges.
    This is all only them. 3 Grammys, a star on Hollywood walk of Fame
    They are the premiere a Capella group in the world. Check out their cover of Bohemian Rhapsody or the prayer. These guys never miss!!
    They are touring USA right now. 11 years of awesomeness

    Pentatonix
    They won The Sing Off in 2011. They made a guest starring appearance on America′s Got Talent as non−competitors a couple of years after that.
    The founding members are:-
    Scott Hoying (tall blond guy, natural baritone but has an impressive five−to−six octave range, can go all the way up to high tenor and down to bass, sings the bass lines when the usual bass singer takes the lead);

    Kirstin "Kirstie" (Rhymes with "Thirsty") Maldonado (the only female member, natural mezzo soprano, but can go down to low alto and as high as upper soprano, also can sing in whistle notes that are off the scale); For a time in 2018 between the group’s tours, had the female lead on Broadway in the production of “Kinky Boots”.
    Mitch Grassi (a true contra−tenor, can hit high notes in his chest voice with ease and go WAY higher in his falsetto, also with ease);
    Avriel "Avi" Kaplan (dark beard and long hair), true basso profundo, trained as an opera singer, also can go up into the tenor range; and
    Kevin "KO" Olusola (beatboxer extraordinaire, also is a world−class cellist who plays cello on some of their songs, has a beautiful high tenor voice and gets occasional lead vocal solos as well, graduated pre−med from Yale and speaks several languages including Mandarin Chinese).
    Kirstie, Scott & Mitch grew up together in Arlington, Texas, and began performing together as children in local youth musical theater. They ended up in high school together and performed in the choir. While there, they formed an a cappella group called The Trio which had several performance videos go viral on TH-cam, most notably a cover of Lady Gaga′s "Telephone". The three of them are best friends and consider themselves to be almost siblings.
    Scott & Kirstie (who were a class year ahead of Mitch) both graduated high school in 2010 and went their separate ways to different colleges, Scott at USC and Kirstie at Oklahoma.
    While at USC, Scott joined a USC−based a cappella group called the SoCal VoCals, where he met alumnus Ben Bram, who was now an arranger and vocal coach for the NBC TV show The Sing Off, an a cappella competition show. Ben convinced Scott to get The Trio to audition for the show. The three reunited (Mitch had to skip high school graduation ceremonies to go) in Los Angeles for the audition.
    They found out that the rules had changed, so they needed at least five members to audition. Ben put them together with Avi (a native of Visalia, California), who he knew from Avi′s performing days at Mount San Antonio College in California. They found Kevin (from Kentucky) through one of his TH-cam videos that had gone viral featuring him playing the cello and beatboxing at the same time, a talent that Kevin coined as "Cello−Boxing".
    Kevin arrived in Los Angeles literally the day before the audition! Scott came up with the name "Pentatonix" after the pentatonic scale. They performed a re−arrangement of "The Telephone" for the audition and passed, despite having been together as a five−piece group for less that 24 hours!
    They won The Sing Off that season (all of the performances are available on TH-cam), in which they received a substantial cash prize AND a record contract with Epic Records. They pooled their prize winnings together and all moved to Los Angeles, and all got apartments right next door to each other in the same building.
    But just a week later, Epic dropped them because the marketing people didn′t think an a cappella group could sell records.
    Instead of giving up, they were determined and began recording their own songs on TH-cam, hiring Ben Bram as their producer and arranger. These usually consisted of the five of them sitting on a couch and performing cover songs live.
    Several of the videos went viral, and Sony (the parent company of Epic) decided to give them another chance by placing them on one of their smaller labels, Madison Gate. They released two secular EPs and one Christmas EP on Madison Gate, all of which were strong sellers.
    But when their cove r of a medley of songs by Daft Punk not only went super−viral, but also won them their first Grammy, they were promoted all the way up to RCA Records, Sony′s top label.
    They began writing and producing their own songs in addition to their covers, began putting out a Christmas album just about annually (which has become their best−selling genre), and have had multi−platinum album sales, sold−out world tours, and have won two additional Grammys.
    Avi began getting burned out with all of the touring and heavy recording schedule, was suffering from anxiety and personal problems, and learned that his mother had been diagnosed with cancer in 2017. He announced he was departing from the group and taking some time away from the music industry.
    Matt Sallee (from Baltimore) joined them in September 2017. He did only become official when they renewed their RCA contract in February 2018, but he recorded with them in September as a featured artist and went on their Christmas tour as a featured artist, as well. When he attended the audition for the group, he had already mastered the Bass part for most if not all their past catalogue. He was successful and has proved that he fits in well with the group.
    If you think there have been other changes to the line up - look again. This is the ONLY change. Kirstie and Mitch are like chameleons and change looks frequently.
    After a year away from music, Avi has now returned as a phenomenal solo artist in the Folk/Americana/Roots genre.
    Ben Bram has been in charge of their production, including arranging and directing from the beginning. He is often referred to as the sixth member. Scott and Kevin are major players in the arrangements, but every member contributes. A good watch is "The Recording of Evergreen" where a camera was invited into the studio for the second week of recording/
    Also, all members are songwriters for both Pentatonix and their own solo work.
    Ed Boyer who mixes everything of theirs (even the HWB Livestream) is the one who pulled Ben Bram into the sing off in the first place.
    They have Grammy wins for Daft Punk Medley, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, and Jolene featuring Dolly Parton. They were nominated for a 4th Grammy for their album Evergreen, but didn't win.
    Kirstie became a new mum which caused a pause in touring after their Evergreen Christmas tour 2021. Mid March 2023 Kirstie has announced that she is engaged to Ben Hausdorff, their videographer. No dates YET!
    They have a star on the Hollywood walk of fame installed in February 2023. They are the only a capella group with a star!
    They came 3rd in the 2023 Masked Singer performing as "California Rolls" being unmasked in May 23.
    Things you need to know because if you get these wrong Pentaholics will come after you with pitch forks and torches! Ha Ha!!
    1- There is NO Auto-Tune; what you hear is actually what they sing. They really are that good. One exception is the 90's Dance Medley where Cher used autotune as an effect - so they had to.
    2- What produces everything that you hear in the video, you see in the official video. If there is an instrument used in the music, you see it on screen. In the 2022 Christmas album, there are some instruments not featured throughout the album.
    3- They never release something on video they can’t reproduce with the exact same quality live on-stage.

    Always read Alan-Freeman comments to learn about this band. Your comments will go from 30 to 300 and new Subs if you follow Pentatonix. Name comes from the pentatonic scale that is often used in Pop music.
    There is a "Beginner's Guide to PTX" and a TH-cam channel that weekly shows the band both in concert and goofing off through their own social media and TicTox videos. PTX-WEEKLY and sometimes an Avi update. It is NOT an Official Channel (so their label can't block it) Kourtney is very good and even asks Mitch or Kevin if information is correct and it's OK to mention in her weekly video. The Pentaholics will guide you through this process and large rabbit hole. Good luck.

    Great reaction to the best acapella group out there. They're one of the few groups that have turned acapella from "ye olde barber shoppe" style music to completely modern day style. After being together for 12 years and consistently improving and challenging themselves, they are now world renowned and have done a few world tours as well as several US tours, made over 200 videos of both covers and originals. They've won 3 Grammys and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
    I subbed in the hope that you check out more of their music.
    Some suggestions:
    Love Again ( heavy EDM beat and incredible vocals), Bohemian Rhapsody, Imagine, New Rules/I Am That Somebody, Shallow, When The Party's Over, Run To You ( original), Say Something, Be My Eyes (original).

    Welcome to the land of Pentaholics ❤❤. Fun fact this song was recorded in a closet and filmed at Scott’s kitchen table and it won them their first (of 3) Grammy. I recommend reacting to Hallelujah, Sound of Silence, Imagine, Amazing Grace, and Mad World. Some of my favorites are their mash ups, NewRules/Are You That Somebody and Despacito/Shape of You are two you should hear. Also check out their evolution videos. Their song list is extensive not to mention they have a ton of Christmas music too. Enjoy ❤

    OK see the first thing you gotta understand is Kevin (the beatboxer) yeah.. I'm convinced he's not human. There's no way. He does things that I've never seen anyone do. And Avi (the one with the goatee) is the bassist (replaced by Matt in the later years) helps the background sound. Good luck wrapping your head around them. I've been a fan for years and still haven't done it. Kirsten and Mitch their high notes are ridiculous and Scott is amazing high or low. Every single song they sang I've Loved even the songs I didn't like the originals too. I give you a list of songs you should review but every single song they've done is amazing so you can't go wrong. Welcome to ptx.
