Pentatonix | The Sound of Silence | Music Reaction | First time hearing them! 

Enjoyed your reaction. Please continue down this Pentatonix rabbit hole. They have over 200+ pieces in their catalogue. They are in order of appearance, Scott Hoying, baritone, does bass when bass has a solo, Mitch Grassi, counter tenor, very high angelic voice, Matt Sallee, bass, joined the group in 2018 when their original bass, Avi Kaplan left, Kirstin Maldonado, mezzo soprano, and Kevin Olusola, beatboxer and beautiful tenor voice. They are THE a cappella group. They have won three Grammys and are currently nominated for their Evergreen Christmas album, in the Best Traditional Pop Album category. The Prayer, Bohemian Rhapsody, Daft Punk, Imagine, Evolution of Michael Jackson, 90’sDance Medley, and any other song. You won’t be disappointed.💕💕

The second singer is Mitch Grassi a counter-tenor who sings 6 octaves higher than most people worldwide. The group has won 3 Grammy Awards.

If you watch more know that Kirstin and Mitch (counter tenor)will likely look different in every era of video, it’s always them❤.

This is, in my opinion, the gold medal performance of a gold medal song. This performance is sooo ... enjoyable.

Hallelujah, their most popular vid, uses the same format. 4 soloists each take a turn, beatboxer comes in clapping & stomping & they end with their wall of Sound.

They are also getting a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in the next couple of months.

Blows my mind thinking they’re completely acapella and use no instruments other than their voices! Amazing! You won’t regret getting to know them!

The tall blond guy is Scott Hoying-Baritone; the girl is Kirsten Maldonado, Mezzo-Soprano; the guy with the hat is Mitch Grassi, Counter-Tenor; the guy with the white jacket is Matt Sallee, Basso-Profundo; the Beatboxer is Kevin Olusola - Tenor, Cellist, Cellist-Beatboxer. After graduation they went to different colleges and majored in music. They got together for a TV singing competition called "Sing-Off" but they required 5-person groups. So, Kevin and Matt came on board by referrals. Please listen to "The Sound of Silence."

Hi. Welcome to PTX We fans are called Pentaholics. We love them and love watch others discover the genius that is Pentatonix 3 Grammys. Currently nominated for a 4 th. 🤞🏽. 200+. covers and originals All are great. They are simply stunning

50+ years on, this is still one of the most powerful songs ever written.

Pentatonix...where to begin... Hallelujah, Daft Punk, Amazing Grace, Bohemian Rhapsody, Mary Did You Know.

I have been listening to Pentatonix since the Sing Off in 2011! Their music transports me! Scott, Mitch and Kirstin were only 19. They needed 5 people to compete and found Avi and Kevin. Who knew they would go on to make such a huge impact on music today!

Bohemian Rhapsody! 🤯 Only instruments are their voices!

PTX never disappoints

They've won 3 Grammys...and were just nominated for a 4th...for their latest Christmas album "Evergreen". The bass guy is named Matt. The girl is Kirstie (sounds like "thirsty").

Pentatonix are the Pentaholics own personal Barbie Dolls... thoroughly interchangable. Scott (first singer - baritone) covers base when Matt (young man in white jacket - bass) sings lead. Kirsten (or Kirstie) is the mezzo sophrano/alto. Mitch (the second singer - counter tenor) and Kirstie switch places often. Sometimes it's difficult to tell them apart in an audio only recording. And, Kevin (beatboxer and also high tenor). I had to laugh (okay chuckle) when you said Mitch must be a "high tenor". This was closer to Mitch's mid-range. NOTE: the group has only had one member change in late 2017-early 2018. Avi Kaplan was the original bass and left amicably for family reasons. He was replaced by Matt Sallee. Just don't be fooled by Kirsten and Mitch's ever-changing appearance. My suggestions: their 2016 cover of Hallelujah (original bass and 700M+ views); their three grammy wins: Daft Punk medley, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (a song with no words), and their duet with Dolly Parton on Jolene. Top it off with their cover of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. That's all the older stuff. It's always fun to watch those before you move on to 2018 and after.

Kevin is the best beatboxer ever, he plays the celli,piano.

All Ptx is great and the members are the tall blonde is Scott, the guy with the short black hair is Mitch he is a tenor, the best box is Kevin, the other gentleman on the left is Matt and the girl is Kirstie. And thank you sarge for serving our country.

We are the Pentaholics, you play them, we will stop by and watch them, you will find we are a very loyal fanbase and your subscriptions will undoubtably rise!!

Kevin, the best boxer also sings tenor. He will also play cello in some of there pieces!

L to R Matt Sallee (Bass since 2017) Kirstin Maldonado, Scott Hoying, Mitch Grassi, Kevin Olusola. The last 4 have been with the group since inception. They all have 6 octave ranges and are master at layering their harmonies to create their famous "Wall of Sound". They are the Kings(and Queen) of a Capella with over 19 million subscribers and over 5 BILLION RU-vid views. DEEEEEEEEEP Rabbit hole!! Enjoy, and enjoyed!

Came for Pentatonix - subbed! "Radioactive" (with Lindsey Stirling), "Hallelujah," "90s Dance Medley," "Daft Punk Medley," "Royals," "Say Something" to name just a few.

They always give their best every and will surprise you every time❤. Hope to get more from you

I just saw these guys in concert for Christmas! They were just as amazingly good live and was such a FUN show.

Thanks for reacting to this PTX "upgrade" There are hundreds of covers and originals for you to react to. I subed for more. Their Bohemian Rhapsody is a must see.

They have been( the core three) singing together since college. Others - Hallelujah. Mary Did You Know. Amazing Grace… they’re so talented.Semper Fi

they have won 3 grammys one of them was for a medley called Daft Punk. It will amaze you...others are the prayer, bohemiem rhapsody, prayers for this world, havana, cheerleader, gold, hundreds more. once you start watching them you will be hooked. You will also pick up a bunch of pentaholics which there are at least 20 million of them. I will check back

The tall blonde who started off is Scott Hoying, the second singer is Mitch Grassi, the Beatboxer beside him is Kevon Olusola beatboxer extraordinaire. The 3rd singer is Matt Sallee the bass, the woman is Kirsten Maldonado. Kirsten, Scott and Mitch all grew up together in Arlington Texas. Kevin joined them in 2011 when they auditioned for the show the sing off which the won. The only change is the bass who started with them Avi Kaplin he left the group in 2017 on good terms. and that same year Matt Sallee came on board. I saw them in 2018 in Washington State, one of the best concerts I have ever seen.. great reaction welcome to the Pentatonix rabbit hole.

Welcome. As a Pentaholic, I look forward to your PENTATONIX reactions. They are the best in the world. You will have all the feels and emotions with them. Pentatonix does not do "covers". They UPGRADE them.

Hello. Just saw your Pentatonix Sound of Silence. I highly recommend that you watch their version of Hallelujah. That was the first Pentatonix song I heard and I was brought to tears. And actually when Kristen started singing that's when that happened. Enjoy.

Loved your reaction to this awesome group. They have 200+ songs in their library, some covers and some originals. Every time they do a cover, they make it their own and upgrade it. Some of their originals: Love Again, Coffee In Bed, Be My Eyes, Happy Now, Run To You, Thank You. It should be noted that although the group is mainly A Capella, the beatboxer, Kevin Olusola, plays cello and beatboxes WHILE playing his cello, there are some of the groups videos with him doing just that: Radioactive ( feat Lindsey Sterling), Thank You ( Scott plays piano as well), Perfect, Say Something, Over The River ( feat Lindsey Sterling), Shallow, Papaoutai ( fet. Lindsey Sterling) You can't really go wrong no matter what you choose to react to. Their fans, pentaholics, will show up to watch.

Great reaction. Any and all Pentatonix is great

Eleven years together and a 200 plus song catalog. You can’t go wrong. The guy you liked so well is Matt, the bass since 2017. The original bass, from 2011 to 2017 is the fantastic Avi Kaplan. He has a successful solo career now so you will see him in the older videos. This is the only member change in their career. The rest from let to right are Kirstin (messo soprano), Scott (baritone), Mitch (countertenor), and Kevin (beatboxer/tenor/cellist). Prior to Pentatonix, the middle three members performed together in high school as The Trio. They added the bass and the beatboxer to form Pentatonix in order to compete in and win the third season of The Sing Off. They have won three Grammys and is now nominated for a fourth. Recommend their most popular video, Hallelujah. Subscribed.

Some 300 plus songs. Originals and covers. Solo work as well. They cover a lot of genre, all upgraded. From left to right: Matt, the bass for the past about six years. Soul filled gorgeous voice. In older videos you will see Avi who was with them for five years. A basso profundo who does work closer to his heart now Then there is Kirsty, mezzo soprano, broadway belt capabilities. Scott the baritone with some six octaves in his range - do check out “Mars, the choir version to see him solo and all over his range. Then Mitch the tenor who also breaks the range barrier, countertenor, fab clear falsetto, check his solo work a Billie Eilish cover of “Your Power” Then there is Kevin the most talented man on the planet. A tenor with a nice falsetto, does fab looping videos for solo stuff “Down” by KO. His cello boxing is his true art Enjoy whatever you play

Wonderful reaction! You may also enjoy their renditions of Hallelujah and Bohemian Rhapsody. Daft Punk and 90’s Dance Medley are a must. Thank you for serving. Best wishes from Tennessee 😊🇺🇸

Kirstin and Matt are married and have 1 child. Love everything they sing, awesome job to all you amazing people. God blessed for sure, thank you for sharing your gifts with us ❤.

The 3 Grammys are for Daft Punk, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy and Jolene with Dolly Parton. They are very big in the Christmas music area. But also have covers (Pentaholics refer to them as upgrades) and originals. As mentioned there has been one member change. Avi, bass, 2011-2017 left for personal reasons. Was replaced by Matt who was on left in this video. Kirsten and Mitch love to change their looks so reactors often think they are different people.

To ask a Pentaholic (a Pentatonix (PTX) fan) what they really like is an impossible question because their 100+ songs are all so good. People consider their covers as upgrades and not just covers. Plus they are releasing more original content as well. They have 3 Grammys and are nominated for a 4th. Definately check out 90's Dance Medley and Love Me When I Don't (Live).

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) NOT IN THIS SONG, 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 RU-vid, 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 RU-vid 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 RU-vid), 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 RU-vid, 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 cover 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. 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. 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 been nominated for a 4th Grammy for their album Evergreen. Kirstie became a new mum which caused a pause in touring after their Evergreen Christmas tour 2021. They have announced that they will have a star on the Hollywood walk of fame to be installed next year. Things you need to know because if you get these wrong Pentaholics will come after you with pitch forks and torches! 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 video. If there is an instrument used in the music, you see it on screen. 3- They never release something on video they can’t reproduce with the exact same quality live on-stage.

The Prayer, Mary Did You know, Daft Punk, Imagine, Oh come all ye faithful, Say something, Shallow just a few of my favorites. Loved your reaction would love to see more Pentatonix reactions. The 3 in the middle started the group and have known each other since they were kids. Kirstin, Scott and Mitch.

They do Awesome cover music, which I like many of the other PTX fans call upgrades. They also have Fantastic original music, all of which it Worthy of listening to and!😊 I Love their old, new and Christmas music, but one of my favorites of their newer music is a song called "Coffee in Bed and Petals".

Welcome to the PTX Universe!

Great reaction! The Prayer is my recommendation, one of my favourites.

7:51 great reaction. Adore PTX; please do more. So many good ones but I love Amazing Grace and Imagine

Welcome to PTX! Saw them live in November and I thought there was no way they'd sound this amazing live. Boy was I wrong. They were AMAZING and absolutely blew me away. I can't wait to see them again!! I've been a fan for a long time and they just keep getting better. They are also such fun people and seem so down to Earth. Loved their interactions throughout the show. Enjoy!

I think the best thing I could do for recommendations for Pentatonix is my favorite of each kind of song they do. For a cover, Bohemian Rhapsody. For an original, Never Gonna Cry Again. And for a medley/remix, Daft Punk Medley. I think you'll find most of their music is very easy and enjoyable to listen to, you really can't go wrong with what you choose.

They have tons of amazing songs. Some of my favorite include hallelujah and come all ye faithful. Also the prayer. The gentleman on the left is Matt and he is the only member that wasn’t an original member. Before he came there was Avi who left on good terms and has a solo career as well.

In this video, they are (from L to R) Matt Sallee (sings bass, joined group in 2017 when Avi Kaplan left for family issues), Kirsten Moldonado (sings mezzo-soprano), Scott Hoying (wide-ranged, but primarily baritone. Sings bass when the bass singer is soloing), Mitch Grassi (his range is called counter-tenor, the highest male voice range), and Kevin Olusula (sings tenor but more often beat-boxes). Scott and Kevin are usually recognizable. Kirstie (rhymes with thirsty) and Mitch will change their appearance now and then. Both Matt and Avi before him usually maintained a consistent appearance as well. They are assisted by Ben Bram, a behind-the-scenes person who does a lot of their arranging. He shared in a couple of their Grammy awards because of the way the award was worded.

You really need to watch The Prayer. You will get the biggest Mitch slap of your life. We all love to see that first reaction to Mitch’s vocal range. Welcome to the rabbit hole.❤

I'm a newer Pentaholic, and you don't know it yet, but so are you. You just opened the floodgates, and I'm here for your new discoveries of their absolutely amazing songs.

Just subscribed more pentatonix please

New subscriber, here for all of the Pentatonix you care to feature! You have opened the door, my friend, and all of us are delighted to have you join us in discovering PTX. They really can do it all. For luscious, lush, full songs, try Can You Feel the Love Tonight from The Lion King, Hallelujah and Prayers for This World. For fun boppers, try Come Along, Making Christmas and Can’t Hold Us. For more intimate vibes, try Imagine, Say Something and Mad World. In the original arena, try Sing, Anchor and Coffee in Bed. Honestly, any title you choose will be good. Pentatonix was a pandemic discovery for me, and I have yet to find a song that isn’t stellar. And, oh yeah, Bohemian Rhapsody, Daft Punk and O Come All Ye Faithful, just because. Peace from Ohio …

Another classic for you, Imagine features their original Bass, Avi Kaplan

U must do Hallelujah w/ headphones ALWAYS PTX! Welcome to the journey, it's a hell of a ride!

I enjoyed your reaction to this beautiful Pentatonix video. Thank you. They are amazing. I look forward to more of your Pentatonix reactions.

Check out The Prayer. They are currently nominated for their 4th Grammy. Trying to recommend a song is tough as all their songs are killer. You'll see.

Nice reaction. Thank you @Theresa Riglo! You captured everything I would have wanted to say about them. In addition to what she recommended, please check out: 1. Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (they won an award for this too) 2. New rules x Are you that Somebody 3. 12 Days of Christmas 4. Over the River 5. Come all ye Faithful You will definitely become a "Pentaholic" with these songs, in addition to the ones recommended by @Theresa Riglo, for sure!

Pentatonix is my favorite of the 3 big a cappella groups currently making videos - the other 2 are Home Free and VoicePlay. The saying goes that Pentatonix (aka PTX) are the choir nerds, Home Free are the good ol' boys tailgating in the parking lot, and VoicePlay are the theater kids. That's completely oversimplified, of course - any of the groups can (and do) perform any genre they want to, and do it remarkably well. Heck, Pentatonix's 3rd Grammy was in Best Country Duo/Group Performance for their collaboration with Dolly Parton on "Jolene"! All of these groups performed on the a cappella singing competition TV show The Sing-off in the early 2010's - Pentatonix competed and won the 3rd season, Home Free and VoicePlay competed (and Home Free won!) the 4th season. Pentatonix is actually the newest of the groups to form - they've only been singing as a group for 11+ years now! As for my favorite Pentatonix songs - you can pick anything out of their huge catalog and you'll almost certainly like it. One trick I recommend is for someone to look through their songs, pick one that you weren't particularly fond of for the original, and then listen to the Pentatonix "upgrade" (as their fans (Pentaholics) call their covers) of the song. But besides covers, about 20% of their catalog are original songs, so you're sure to find something you like. Recommendations: Hallelujah (just broke 700 MILLION views), Say Something, Shallow, Sing (original), Bohemian Rhapsody, Daft Punk (mashup of 7 Daft Punk songs, their 1st Grammy), Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (2nd Grammy - an instrumental piece with no words performed by a group with no instruments), Come Along, Light In the Hallway.

Avi was the original bass. Absolutely LOVE him. From what I read their schedule kept him away from home too much and that's why he dropped out.

The Pentaholics will come... And turn you onto other acapella groups... My suggestion is the one that blew my mind... The official video for Pentatonix's cover of Bohemian Rhapsody, a Queen favorite that literally blew my mind... from there you have 11 years of them to catch up on... and the Pentaholics will guide you...

Yay another one has been snagged!!! Loved your reaction!! Kirsty, Scott, and Mitch (three in the middle) grew up together in Arlington Texas and have known each other since around the age 10 and sang together as a trio in their high school choir. They are THE acapella group with so many songs...all of which will blow you away!!! Subscribed for more Pentatonix!!! Welcome aboard!!!

Hello!! Great reaction!! We LOVE Pentatonix! They won the 3rd season of The Sing Off and won a recording contract, that they were later dropped from. They basically became RU-vidrs to get their music out there until another recording company signed them. You can't go wrong with ANYTHING Pentatonix. Highly recommend Radioactive, Royals, Say something, Perfect and Shallow to name just a few. Thanks for the reaction. Can't wait to see more.

More Pentatonix please. They recently sang the National Anthem at the College Football Championship game and it was fantastic. I also recommend their DaftPunk Medley and their original Coffee in Bed.

Welcome to the fandom! Rather than repeat everyone else, I want to add that the members each have impressive ranges, so you can never assume which person is taking which harmony. Mitch often does higher notes than Kirstie (the background notes during her solo "teach you" and "reach you" in this video are him); Kirstie has been working on her low alto range; Scott started taking bass parts around their Hallelujah era (he covers bass when Avi/Matt have solos); and the few times that Kevin sings, he's up in the soprano/high alto range (he has small solos in Mary Did You Know, Little Drummer Boy, and Imagine, if you want to hear his singing voice, although all of those songs were recorded over 5 years ago and I think he's gotten more confident with his voice since then). I HIGHLY recommend watching them (music videos or live) rather than just listening, while you're getting to know them. Aside from making it easier to figure out who does each part, it's also so much fun watching them do something they're so passionate about! My personal favorite less-popular music videos of theirs are My Favorite Things (Kirstie lead) and Making Christmas. Kirstie, Mitch, and Scott were all theater kids when they were younger, and it really shows sometimes! Also, they did a Wizard of Oz spoof with Todrick Hall in like 2013 that's theatrical.

Welcome to the best ride in the park! Buckle up. Loved your reaction. My favorites are Sing, Can't Hold Us, Love Again and Daft Punk.

Any PTX video is a treat, and I guess all of us who are fans(Pentaholics) have our own favorites. As you watch more of them, keep in mind the only member change was about 5 years ago when the original bass, Avi Kaplan, left and was replaced by Matt Sallee, the far left in this video. These wonderful people have covered many songs in different genres and have a number of originals so that you can select freely from their catalog based on your own musical preferences.

Welcome to the PTX rabbit hole. If you want to see how they got started check out the Sing-Off competition they won it will blow ur mind. Great reaction

I love all of the Matt love❤❤❤❤

The guy on the left is their bass Matt. He joined the group in 2017 after their original bass Avi left. That’s the only lineup change there’s ever been so if you find yourself asking if someone else is new the answer is no lol, Kirstin and Mitch just look different in every video. I recommend their 90s Dance Medley video! It’s super fun.

From left to right. Guy in the White jacket, His name is Matt. He is pretty much the bass guy. In some older videos of this group, they had a different Bass guy, He had like a dark beard, his name was Avi Kaplin. He was an original member that left the group in 2017, to pursue doing some single stuff. The Ladies name is Kirsten, she is an original member, you will notice she changes looks and hair color and styles often. The next guy name is Scott, he has a wide range that he can do, as in this video, he covered Bass well Matt sang his part, he is also an original member. Next guys name is Mitch, he also changes looks often as well, but he has a very big range also, but he can get real high for a guy, he is also an original member. Last guy s name is Kevin, Kevin is an incedible beatboxer, and he will sing a line here and there, he is also a renowned Chelloist. he is an oringinal member also. They won the 3rd season of a show back in like 2011 called the Sing Off. They have have a lot of covers, but they have some originals also. Us fans call ourselves Pentaholics. When they do a cover of a song, its not a cover, its an upgrade. They have so many video to watch. I recomend you do the original video of Hallelujah here is a link ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LRP8d7hhpoQ.html Also i suggest their offical video of Bohemian Rhapsody a Queen cover. here is the link ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ojRj2JK5oCI.html Hope this answers a few questions

Enjoyed your reaction. Love PTX. Can’t go wrong with them.

Great reaction! I think all the other commenters covered the bases for you. Just a suggestion, watch the official Hallelujah video first then watch the live version from their Christmas tv special to see better how they switch parts. There is VERY LITTLE difference in their recorded stuff and the live performances. I’ve seen them in person. They are the real deal!

Need to react to Disturbed's video of Sound of Silence. Powerful vocals and images.

Welcome to Pentatonix! You’re in for a beautiful journey and I’ve just subscribed to join you ❤️🙌🙌

My favorite Pentatonix song? It's probably the same one many other pentaholics have. It's the one I most recently listened to, or possibly the one I am listening to right now. This video is 5 hours old, so I would imagine that people have told you that the person on the left is Matt, their current bass singer. In the 10-plus years they have been making music has Pentatonix, there has only been one member change and that was the bass singer. In 2017 Matt joined to take over from Avi Kaplan who left the group for personal reasons. He now has a successful solo career and does very well. If you watch videos from different points in their decade-long career, you will find yourself wondering if they're all the same people. Kirstie and Mitch are chameleons and change with regularity. If you have to ask, yes, it's always them. If I had only two suggestions to give, I would ask you to react to Hallelujah and Bohemian Rhapsody. And The Prayer. And Daft Punk. And 90s dance medley. But those are the only two.

Fantastic Man! Love PTX❣👍🏻🇬🇧🇺🇸✌🏻

Thank you for your reaction. Most importantly thank you for your service

Pentatonix: Mitch: Countertenor, dark hair, slender. Scott: Tenor/Baritone, blonde,medium build. Kirstie: Soprano. Matt: Bass/Baritone and Kevin: Beatboxer and occasionally breaks out his cello. Note: Countertenors are the unicorns of the music world. Their range goes into female vocal territory. I don't know Kevin's actual vocal range as I have never heard him sing only beatbox and play cello

Welcome! We always love to see new people dropping in to see what PTX is about! So from left to right, you have: Matt Sallee (suh-LEE)- Bass (joined the group in 2018 after the group's original bass, Avi Kaplan, left for family and other personal reasons) Kirsten or Kirstie (rhymes with 'thirsty' Maldonado - Mezzo Soprano (I think of her as more or less Mariah Carey) Scott Hoying - Baritone and the most soulful voice you'll probably ever see on a white guy, lol. Mitch Grassi - Countertenor (or as I call him: God. 😅) He is hands down the best singer in the group (everyone in the group has consistently said so), and I'm pretty sure his actual useable range goes beyond human hearing (no, really). Kevin Olusola (oh-LU-sho-la) - Human drum kit/trumpet/tenor/cellist/who even knows at this point. Primarily is the beatboxer, songs from time to time, plays the cello (he invented what he calls "celloboxing", where he plays and beatboxes at the same time). Dude is like a cross between Michael Winslow and Mozart. Completely unreal. Oh yeah, and he graduated pre-med from Yale. You will find that there's nothing they have done that isn't great. They simply do. not. miss. ever. For a beginner's set to get you a sense of who they are and what they can do: Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen cover) Daft Punk (medley) Run to You (Original) Problem (Ariana Grande cover) Happy Now (Original) They have 3 Grammys for Daft Punk, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies, and Jolene ft. Dolly Parton, and have been nominated this year for Best Traditional Pop Album for their 2021 Christmas album, Evergreen. A few of my other favorites include: Love Again (Original) Can you Feel the Love Tonight (Lion King) Butter x Dynamite (BTS mashup) Attention (Charlie Puth cover) Blinding Lights (The Weeknd cover) Happy Reacting, and see you soon!

I see my fellow Pentaholics are filling you in and giving sound advice. I would simply concur: Hallelujah (700 million views), Bohemian Rhapsody (when first released Brian May posted to his social media with the single word caption "Enjoy"...can't get any higher praise than that), and Imagine (John Lennon cover). These are musts for all newbies and beginners. You might also consider starting at the very beginning, with the 2011 Sing-Off competition. Twelve episodes of Babytonix forming, growing, developing and coming into their own, being introduced to the world and taking it by storm. Be sure to listen to the judges comments after each performance (they loved them too)! What brought them to your attention? Their recent performance of The Star Spangled Banner? Another one to add to the list!

Nice reaction, just another song that sounds like it was written for them. Left to right: Matt, Kirsten (sounds like first), Scott, Mitch, and Kevin. They are all supremely talented artists and they are pretty great people too. I think you’ll love the newest offerings from the newest album called The Lucky Ones. All originals and all masterpiece.

Just subbed for more PTX please! Maybe start a Pentatonix Playlist... The Pentaholics will love you for it! 🤗💕

Excellent reaction. Be subscriber who loves Pentatonix. Any of their music is absolutely fantastic!

Great reaction!! love PTX!!

I just came across your channel and loved your reaction to PTX. I'd love to see you react to Hallelujah next.

I just happened to be in the neighborhood and am a Pentatonix (Greek for "5 sounds/tones") fan and I have been reacting to reactors of PTX. That you immediately picked up on Mitch being a tenor altino caught my attention. I don't know how many other performances you have reacted to but if you have not reacted to "The Prayer" and the best of all, "Halleluyah", you are in for a treat.

This is one of the Pentatonix masterpieces, I think. This is no question my favorite, and I think Matt (the baritone/bass) has a lovely, perfectly trained voice. Mary did you know, Imagine, hallelujah, and come along are the others I think are top notch. I don't usually enjoy tenor voices, but Mitch's countertenor is angelic. Such a rare and beautiful gift. They are always impeccable. I have never heard a bad song from them. ( But I will forever prefer Voiceplay because of the element of humor and theatrics that make them so much more creative. and because... Well.. Geoff. Haha)

Check out their Daft Punk medley. Won them their first Grammy. Absolutely mind blowing..

Keep reacting to Pentatonix (lots to choose from) and watch your sub base soar.

PTX „musts“: Hallelujah, Daft Punk Medley, 90ies Dance Medley, Amazing Grace, Havanna, Shallow…

Welcome to PTX! Matt, the bass singer, really does shine in this one, doesn't he? Subbed for more!

Daft Punk, The Prayer, Rather Be, Sing (original), Pop Spring 2016 (three originals and one cover)

Awesome Reaction!

You said, "High tenor possibly?" I had to chuckle, but only because I've been a Pentaholic for almost 8 years now. As I am sure others have said... not 'possibly.' Just wait. As you explore the PTX rabbit hole, you will see vocal mastery, and the OTHER group members unanimously say that Mitch is the best of them. There are female sopranos who wish they had his pipes!

Check out Bohemian Rhapsody and Hallelujah

Honestly, you can't go wrong with Pentatonix.

Great reaction! Love Pentatonix and subed for more PTX reactions.

I recommend checking out Popspring 2016 Live, Daft Punk, 90’s Dance Medley, La La Latch, Havana, Imagine, Can’t Sleep Love, Gold, Can’t Hold Us, and any of their Evolution Of videos. There is SO much to discover.

I just subbed in hopes of more Pentatonix reactions on your channel! 💖

Love your reaction Sarg! Sharp ears there. Subbed!! That guy on the left is Matt Sallee, the group's bass since 2017 ( PTX) has been around since 2011. The rest of the group are described by the numerous Pentaholics here. Each one has his/her strength. Choose any PTX song that fits your taste; you won't be disappointed. Promise. Take care from the Philippines 🇵🇭
