How do you pricks not have a proper thread for These guys? You had
Four Entire years...-sigh- anyways:
Pentatonix is an American A-Cappella group of five, Avi Kaplan, Scott Hoying, Kirstin Maldonado, Kevin Olusola, and Mitch Grassi (Be wary that they mostly do Pop). They originated from Arlington Texas, Scott, Kirstin and Mitch were the trio that sang any time anywhere, Avi was introduced to them by a friend. And they found Kevin on the internet.The five essentially wanting to do something big, participated in a lesser known competition, "The Sing Off". They immediately catapulted towards fame, as with near to no obstacles they won the Third season of "The Sing Off" while amazing the audience and judges endlessly (This was all during 2011 when they formed). This was seemingly a head start for them, since they had won $200,000 and a recording contract with Sony Music, but for whatever reason they were soon dropped from the label not too long after.
They later joined a smaller label "Madison Gate Records" They brushed aside being dropped from the label and continued to make music, As another way to just share their music. They made a YouTube channel and began to upload their music. Now this went way better then expected from the five.
One of their first hits was their
"Evolution of Music medley" that they made in 2013, as the video went viral, fans were pouring out of every nook and cranny. The video currently has over 70,000,000 views and is still dropping jaws.That wasn't the only hit for these talented perfections. Shortly after they began to upload more and more brilliant harmonies of sorts.
They are best known for their covers and medleys, but they have made many originals over the time. Every single song went above Ten million views and never failed to impress. Medleys such as:
"Evolution of Beyonce" and
"Evolution of Michael Jackson. Covers like:
"Imagine Dragons - Radioactive" and
"Calvin Harris" - I need Your Love". Finally Originals like:
"Can't sleep Love" and
"Little Drummer Boy"Now while all of these hit big view mile stones. Their Number one viewed Medley with over 160,000,000 That also won them a Grammy, was their Daft Punk Medley, It was one of the best representations of their talent and believe it or not, was recorded in a closet, and filmed in a kitchen...The intense editing, full beat boxing, smooth transitions and stunning vocals made this all the more gratifying. With this endless string of success, they have now wound up with,over Nine million subscribers and over a billion views. The group also frequently goes on tours all over the world with some great singers such as Tori Kelly. They have also released a fair amount of albums: PTX Volumes: One, two and three (2011 - 2014) And their two christmas albums "PTXmas" and "That's christmas To Me". Before we end off know that this group is really open to fans. Scott and Mitch have their own little vlogging-esque Channel, where they simply do much you would see the average You tuber doing.SuperFruit. And If You have any doubt in their ability to sing live, here's a
Playlist of their Sing off performances.
