This is a Capella music. All of them sang sections in this one except for Kevin, because he was busy beatboxing :-) He does indeed sound like instruments in many of their songs. You’ll get a whole lot of Pentatonix requests now ... as the Pentaholics descend. Avi (long hair and beard is the very deep bass), Mitch’s highs always surprise everyone. I would recommend Bohemian Rhapsody, Imagine or Daft Punk next, or Sound of Silence (with the new bass Matt)

Welcome to PTX. If you do more Pentatonix's reactions you will get the Pentaholics showing up and viewing your reactions. If you want to see them doing guitar and drums, try Bohemian Rhapsody. They are the only a cappella group to ever win a Grammy. They’ve won 3. They have 19 million subscribers to their KZread channel and that video has over 600 million views, so yes they are popular.
@juliestevens69313 жыл бұрын
Daft Punk Medley, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (no words), Jolene ft. Dolly Parton (3 VERY different pieces). Each won a Grammy. Amazing Grace (all 5 sing - different bass, but everyone else the same), Bohemian Rhapsody, Sing! (original), Imagine, Run to You (original). There are hundreds of pieces to choose from. Each one has done their own thing. If you want to really learn about them, start with Season 3 of the Sing-Off back in 2011. That is where the group of 5 (penta for the pentonics scale) joined up for the first time. The "trio" - Scott, the tall blond, Kirstie (rhymes with thirsty), and Mitch (guy with hat and angelic high tenor) pretty much grew up together. When they went to try out for the Sing-Off they knew they needed a bass so a friend (of a friend?) knew Avi (the guy with the beard) as a great bass in the a cappella community and suggested him to Scott. Scott then saw Kevin (the beatboxer) on KZread beatboxing and playing the cello at the same time (celloboxing as Kevin calls it) and knew he was just the last piece to their puzzle. They all met just a day or two before the audition! The rest, as they say, is history. You really need to dive deep down this rabbit hole. They are considered by many to be THE a cappella group.

Popularity? the Hallelujah video has over 600 million views and they have won 3 Grammys; Including one with Dolly Parton and the song "Jolene". There are many suggestions below from fellow fans(embraced lovingly by the group as Pentaholics) of their other songs AND a singing competition in 2011 on NBC's Sing-off.

This type of singing group is called A Capella, which means no instruments (similar to Barber-Shop Quartets). 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 bearded guy with the turban is Avi Kaplan, Basso-Profundo; the Beatboxer is Kevin Olusola, Tenor/Cellist/Cellist beatboxer. The video was shot in the California Mojave Desert. Penta is Latin for 5 - Tonix is tones...sooo, 5Tones or Pentatonix, affectionately known as PTX. Scott, Kirsten, and Mitch met in a high school in Arlington, TX (between Dallas and Ft. Worth, TX). After graduation they went to different colleges but got back together for a TV competition called "Sing-Off," but 5 person groups were required, so Avi and Kevin came on-board from referrals. If you are familiar with Simon and Garfunkel of the '60s, they composed "Sound of Silence." PTX sang their version of "Sound of Silence."

Daft Punk Medley, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (no words), Jolene ft. Dolly Parton (3 VERY different pieces). Each won a Grammy. Amazing Grace (all 5 sing - different bass, but everyone else the same), Bohemian Rhapsody, Sing! (original), Imagine, Run to You (original). There are hundreds of pieces to choose from. Each one has done their own thing. If you want to really learn about them, start with Season 3 of the Sing-Off back in 2011. That is where the group of 5 (penta for the pentonics scale) joined up for the first time. The "trio" - Scott, the tall blond, Kirstie (rhymes with thirsty), and Mitch (guy with hat and angelic high tenor) pretty much grew up together. When they went to try out for the Sing-Off they knew they needed a bass so a friend (of a friend?) knew Avi (the guy with the beard) as a great bass in the a cappella community and suggested him to Scott. Scott then saw Kevin (the beatboxer) on KZread beatboxing and playing the cello at the same time (celloboxing as Kevin calls it) and knew he was just the last piece to their puzzle. They all met just a day or two before the audition! The rest, as they say, is history. You really need to dive deep down this rabbit hole. They are considered by many to be THE a cappella group.
Popularity? the Hallelujah video has over 600 million views and they have won 3 Grammys; Including one with Dolly Parton and the song "Jolene". There are many suggestions below from fellow fans(embraced lovingly by the group as Pentaholics) of their other songs AND a singing competition in 2011 on NBC's Sing-off. There is a ton of their music for you to sift through!
It is so great to hear a first time listener to Pentatonix. The reaction was very honest.
Great reaction! I’d love to see you react to their cover of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” too, it’s amazing!

Shallow, Say Something, Amazing Grace, 90’s dance medley, any of their original songs, and Scott and Mitch’s Superfruit Katy Perry cover of Rise, Frozen Medley, and Defying Gravity cover from the Broadway musical, Wicked.
Pentatonix, sound of silence A MUST WATCH
They’ve won three Grammys. The first one was for Daft Punk. The bass was the guy with the beard (Avi) except when he was singing then it was the tall blonde guy (Scott). In newer videos Avi is replaced by Matt (Avi left amicably to spend time with his family). Everyone else is the same although Kirstie snd Mitch (brimmed hat) look different all the time. Find a song you like and check out their cover. They are amazing.
You can check their live performance of this song. Then you won't have any doubt they're doing everything with their mouths!!!
Great reaction, give a listen to their cover of Sound of silence 💕💕🎶🎶🎶
More PTX! What a journey you have awaiting you. Can’t wait to see you react to more
Start at the very beginning! Season 3 of The Sing Off that is where they started! They have ,a huge catalog of amazing music, some must see are Bohemian Rhapsody, Imagine, originals Love Again, Can't Sleep Love, Grammy winning Daft Punk, Jolene and Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy ( a song with no words done by a group with no instuments!) Some fun ones Can't Stop Us, Thrift Shop, Sing and Cheerleader. The list goes on and on. Welcome to the PTX rabbit hole!
This is such a great reaction. Definitely agree - listen to their Bohemian Rhapsody!
You've just fallen into a vast rabbit hole of incredible music. Pentatonix is very popular with billions of views and 3 grammys to their name. Really enjoyed your reaction! As for what to watch next... Some of my favorites include: COVERS: Daft Punk (1st Grammy win), Can't Hold Us, Sound of Silence, Bohemian Rhapsody, Break My Heart, New Rules + Are You That Somebody, Gold (live) Attention, Can You Feel the Love Tonight (from The Lion King), Say Something, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (2nd grammy win), 90s Dance Medley, and Mad World. ORIGINALS: Love Again, Can't Sleep Love, Sing, Cracked, Love Me When You Don't, Water, Coffee in Bed, Bored, Never Gonna Cry Again, A Little Space, The Lucky Ones, Exit Signs... Then ALL of their Christmas music!! 🎄🎶
Every time, 100+? Shivers and Tears I can't Explain.
Give a listen to "Havana," "Sound of Silence," "Amazing Grace," "Cheerleader," "Can You Feel the Love Tonight?," to start. They ARE amazing! It was fun seeing you discover them.
Please react to Pentatonix singing “Amazing Grace” beautiful!!🙏🏻🙏🏻
I really enjoyed your reaction. Thanks! You may enjoy their cover of "The Sound of Silence". This type of music is called a Capella.
Dude, FANTASTIC reaction. I HIGHLY suggest their version of the Sound of Silence, Can You Feel the Love Tonight, & just about all of their Christmas music. You’ll see why. Oh, Daft Punk, Sugar Plum Fairy & Amazing Grace will hit differently as well. Be prepared.
This type of singing group is called A Capella, which means no instruments (similar to Barber-Shop Quartets). 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 bearded guy with the turban is Avi Kaplan, Basso-Profundo; the Beatboxer is Kevin Olusola, Tenor/Cellist/Cellist beatboxer. The video was shot in the California Mojave Desert. Penta is Latin for 5 - Tonix is tones...sooo, 5Tones or Pentatonix, affectionately known as PTX. Scott, Kirsten, and Mitch met in a high school in Arlington, TX (between Dallas and Ft. Worth, TX). After graduation they went to different colleges but got back together for a TV competition called "Sing-Off," but 5 person groups were required, so Avi and Kevin came on-board from referrals. If you are familiar with Simon and Garfunkel of the '60s, they composed "Sound of Silence." PTX sang their version of "Sound of Silence."
they do that to most if not all first time hearing them sing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for reacting to my favorite acapella group. They have 3 Grammys and have done world tours to packed crowds in their 10 years together. They do covers of songs and have many original songs. They have done holiday albums that are awesome. I subbed in hopes that you will react to more of their amazing music.
There were actually 4 who sang Scott, Avi, Kirstie, and Mitch. Sometimes Kevin also sings. You need to check out more of their stuff, both covers and originals.
Shortly before he passed Leonard Cohen, the gentleman who wrote the song, heard Pentatonix cover of his song. He said that it was the best cover he had ever heard of his song. To hear their insane harmonies React to imagine And Mary did you know. Both of them they put up what is called a Wall of sound. Imagine is A song That applies to today just as much as it did when it was written. Pentatonix takes such a powerful song and makes it even more powerful
Amazing grace from them too.
There were 4 that sang. Kevin the beat boxer does sing on occasion, and he is a tenor. The type of music is acapella.
Kevin, the beatboxer, also plays cello on some songs like Shallow and Say Something. When there is the rare instrument, it is right out front and not in the background.
Welcome to the PTX rabbit hole. Great reaction! Acapella means no instruments, but around 3% of the time they will use one. You will always see the instrument in the video, mostly Kevin (Beatboxer) with his Cello. Also they will never record a song that they can't do live on stage and it sounds just as good. There is a live performance of Hallelujah that was recorded, check it out.
Welcome to the "Pentaholix Rabbit hole" ! 😎
Thanks for reacting to this awesome Pentatonix cover. Later this year will be their 10-year anniversary. They have hundreds of songs and videos on KZread. If you decide to react to them again, anything that you choose will be great. A good start would be their cover of "Sound Of Silence". They have original songs and covers of songs. They won Season 3 of the a cappella TV show The Sing Off. They have 3 Grammy Awards and have toured on 5 of the 7 continents.
Welcome to PTX...I guarantee that if you keep reacting to Pentatonix you are going to get a lot more subs! Us Pentaholics are loyal fans and are looking for new reactions daily. This group is in a league of their own...there is no group that is comparable. Some Acapella groups are good, but these guys take you to a new level. Thanks for the reaction!
Havana, Gold and Amazing Grace. Imagine too.
They do an a cappella version of Bohemian Rhapsody, including guitar solo,. No electronics or instruments.
Great reaction! There were actually 4 who sang lead. First was the baritone, Scott Hoying, then the bass profundo, Avi (pronounced Aahh Vee) Kaplan, Kirsten Maldonado(Mezzo Soprano) and Mitch Grassi(Tenor). The 5th is the beat boxer extraordinaire, Kevin Olusola. You can also check out their live performance (Christmas Special 2016) at kzread.info/dash/bejne/foaEmsZwmMvWn7Q.html You will be blown away. This band has won 3 Grammy awards in their earlier years. You would like their covers too i.e. John Lennon's Imagine, Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, Daft Punk Medley (1st Grammy), Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy(2nd Grammy) and so many more including originals like Love again, Sing and Run to you. Lots of Holiday music as well. This band is sensationally talented and creative. They support one another so beautifully. Though their individual voices are so distinct and unique, their harmonies together sound like angels.
The best comment possible " Whoooooo "
I don’t know 17 million subscribers love them including me. I recommend imagine, Sing and thank you.
Best songs I love watching reactions to are Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen and Halleluiah by Pentatonix. In both reactions there is a stunned disbelief at what they are hearing. Two of the greatest recordings ever.
Listen to their version of The Sounds of Silence next.
They have won 3 Grannies in 3 years. It's called A Cappella. Just subscribed when I saw you were diving down the PTX rabbit hole. We are called Pentiholics.
Bohemian Rhapsody 🔥
You were correct on both base parts. The beatboxer took over the base line while the base guy was singing.
There were four of them singing - Scott (tall blond baritone), Avi ("AH-vee" - bearded dark-haired bass), Kirsten (mezzo-soprano), and Mitch ("the guy with the hat" - tenor). Kevin (beat boxer) actually has a very sweet tenor and sings in some of the other songs. Note that Mitch and Kirstie change their looks often, but you will know them by their voices. Avi had to leave the group for personal reasons in 2017; the new bass on their more recent videos is Matt Sallee.
PTX has more than 19 million followers on You Tube...they're pretty popular. Their rendition of Sound of Silence has over a million views...Great reaction. Waiting for more from you.
Great to see someone discovering Pentatonix for the first time! PTX covers all types of songs and never fail to put their own flare to it. Their arrangements and video quality are top notch. Nice reaction and can't wait to see more.
You might want to check out PTX's "Sound of Silence" and "Bohemian Rhapsody", as well.
They are so talented. Try Amazing Grace, Mary Did You Know, The Sound of Silence just to name a few.
It’s called an “A-cappella” group, no instruments. Pentatonix are an extremely talented group.
Watch the live version from their Christmas special all their voices nothing added!
Great reaction! There is a whole world of folks out here who like beautiful harmonies and amazing video production, and these guys are the apex of both. They have been around for 10 years, the first 7, from 2011 to 2017 with this line up. In 2017, the bass singer, guy with beard and beanie, left (for personal reasons, no drama), and was replaced by a new bass singer, who you will see in videos since then. To hear them all sing, including the beatboxer who has a great tenor voice, check out PTX Imagine (John Lennon cover). For a great original song, check out Love Again or Can't Sleep Love. Looking forward to more PTX reactions.
Avi the king of base and then when he sings, Scott takes over. Magic.
Great reaction...if you want to here more drums and guitars you shoot listen to there cover off Bohemian Repsady. There is a new album of original song's "Coffee in Bed" is a good example. But hack everything they do is amazing
More pentatonix t please. They are awesome.
It's called "a capella". You're going to be inundated with commentary and song suggestions. You really can't go wrong with any of their songs, but the two I'd recommend most are their covers of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" and Simon & Garfunkel's "Sound of Silence".
Hey sir great reaction. Could you please react to Pentatonix cover of Amazing Grace please

. Thanx... You will notice one litte difference depending on what videos from Pentatonix you decide to react to and that will be the Bass. In the beginning there was a white guy "Avi" then he left the group and was replaced by a black gentlemen named "Matt". Everyone else has been the same. They all change thier looks alot but i promise they are the same. One more thing the record company they are under tend to block alot if thier videos so you may have to add some pauses here and there
PTX does a great cover for Bohemian Rhapsody and Amazing Grace! Definitely should check them out and react!
Tip of the ICEBERG!🤣
A Capella is just voice .. they are the best at it .. listen to their version of Amazing Grace or Mary Did You Know ,,, also Imagine by John Lennon ,, their cover is fantastic !
Love the stunned silence at the end.
Great authentic rection sir... no one carries a chord like Pentatonix... no one!!
You can really go down the rabbit hole of PTX and watch several of their videos. Another powerful one they do is Amazing Grace. Highly recommended.
Try their Bohemian Rhapsody, Sound of Silence, Can You Feel the Love Tonight and any of their Christmas Music, not sang like your Grandma sang it. Try O Come All Ye Faithful, I think you will be pleasantly surprised by it. Have subscribed to hear more❣️
Just subbed for more Pentatonix reactions!! Sound of Silence, Amazing Grace and The Prayer are some of my favorites. Glad you enjoyed… it only gets better from here!!
The Beatboxer, Kevin can also play cello while beatboxing. He’s that talented.
Hey Zew!! Good to see you!! They are a great A cappella group! Anything they do is good!! Another good a capella group is Home Free! They are both excellent!! Home free has a great beat boxer... and Tim Foust on bass is great!! See ya soon! Let me know if you want some suggestions!

Down the rabbit hole...!
New sub for more PTX.
Try their cover of Sound of Silence, many other great ones. They have a very strong fan base, check out the number of views on their videos
Daft punk and bohemian Rhapsody and Amazing Grace
They're awesome. Now listen to Sound of Silence and Amazing Grace!
Kevin, the beatboxer, doesn't sing his own part in this one, but listen to Sound of Silence, and you'll find he's got a great voice too. Avi, the bass, (bearded one) is not in that video (Sound of Silence as he left the group and was replaced by Matt) does the bass but Scott (the blond one) sings bass when Avi sings. Mitch (the high pitch one with the round hat) has a great voice and he and Kirsten change their appearances in just about every video there is. They are fantastic individually and collectively. BTW, in this video, they (Scott started, then Avi, then Kirsten, then Mitch) all sang their parts except Kevin.
Incredible indeed! Enjoyed your reaction!
Listen to amazing grace
You need to listen to "Mary Did You Know" by them and "Amazing Grace". Also incredible.
Try taking a look at their cover of John Lennons IMAGINE,
There are zero instruments. Even the back drums and the drops are all vocals. Great reaction ❤
please do the live version of this song, that way you have a better undersanding of who does what and they sound amazing live too
Love PTX❤️. Check out their amazing Grace cover
Love your reaction.
