    You love great vocals *and* theatrics? Yep, you've found the right group!
    Geoff really took center stage on this track, but once you start listening to VoicePlay a bit more you're going to quickly realize that every single one of these guys are remarkable vocalists. Even Layne, the vocal percussionist (not to take away from that- he's one of the best in a cappella) has a truly sweet baritone that we are occasionally gifted to hear from time to time. Eli (rhymes with 'jelly'), the bald tenor, is an absolute rock god who can turn his grit on and off, and Earl Elkins Jr. (the bearded gent) has a high tenor that is laser sharp and capable of piercing the stratosphere. And J. None has a voice like melting butter, and so much soul in his voice. Both he and Eli have runs for days, and even Geoff has been known to throw down some elaborate ones. Which is amazing to hear in his lower vocal register. So yeah, you're in for a very fun ride. And that's all without mentioning that they do all of their own arranging and video work (including setting up the lighting, editing the video, and occasionally working cameras), as they are 100% independent. VoicePlay are by far the most impressive group I know.

    Voiceplay also did Kidnap the Sandy Claws, What's This?, and This is Halloween. They have a Halloween playlist, it is their favorite holiday.

    Formed in Orlando, they are one of the big 3 acapella groups , with Home Free and Pentatonix.
    Geoff or Layne Stein(beatboxer) do the arrangements on most songs. The bald tenor is Eli Jacobsen. Earl Elkin Jr, the guy with the beard) is no longer with the group. J. None left to join the Navy, but occasionally guests when on leave. Ceasar De La Rosa has joined since this, and the 5th spot has been a guest singer.
    Geoff's wife, Kathy is the production manager.
    Check out their covers of We Don't Talk About Bruno from Disney's Encanto, Aerosmith's Dream On, and for Halloween, This Is Halloween.

    I've seen this one about a million times and it never gets old. Has to be my favorite VoicePlay video, as well as my favorite video for displaying Geoff's range. He absolutely kills it here.
    If you haven't seen Geoff's "Monster Mash" video, it's also a must-see. It's also very theatrical, and fits perfectly with the Halloween season!

  • @Denalicat
    @Denalicat Před 8 měsíci +9

    Everyone has their own favorite flavor of VP I think you might enjoy "The Wicked Medley". For more goofy theatrical performances " Drunken Sailor" or "Your a Mean One Mr Grinch", for heartbreaking, "Heart of Life", "I Can't Make You Love Me", hopeful "The Bones" ,"I Will Survive". There is about 12 years worth of content on their channel, I dare you to find a bad one...and what everyone else said 😇

    Love this. Nightmare Before Christmas has always been a favorite movie of mine. Especially this time of year (halloween is my favorite holiday). Danny Elfman wrote this as well as many songs for Tim Burton movies. LOVE YOUR EXCITEMENT!!! Check out Jacks Lament. You won't be disappointed. Love the new hair color. Have a great day JVB.

    Geoff doesn't often sing the lead, but he took it again for this year's Hellfire, just dropped. Couldn't be a more different feel - a MUCH more threatening villain - and absolutely spectacular. Also listen to their cover of Grieg's Hall of the Mountain King. Released last October, it isn't classed as halloween, but in my mind should be. An insane performance vocally and theatrically.

    • @CarlD70

    • @Aurora-cv5to
      @Aurora-cv5to Před 8 měsíci

      @@CarlD70 It's wonderful, no question. But of course he sings lead, and all of the parts too, on his own channel. And while I found it absolutely charming, for me it wasn't particularly spooky. Everyone is different.

    This was my first VoicePlay song back in 2019, but it was discovering Geoff's "Misty Mountains Cold" that made me go back to VoicePlay, plow through their entire discography, and become such a massive fan. I think I have 5 different Spotify playlists just for them, haha! By the way, that jacket was dazzling! Love it!

    This was the first Voiceplay cover I heard when introduced to them and when Geoff hit that E1 at the end I bruised my jaw when it hit the desk. But wait! There's more! He has hit a B0 in a couple of covers and touched on an A0 in a slide down in Voiceplay's cover of Imagine Dragon's _Enemy_ . Someone in the comments mentioned their newest release of Hellfire from _Hunchback of Notre Dame_ and Geoff just released a solo cover of Jack's Lament from _Nightmare Before Christmas_ . Welcome to the Rabbit Hole!! :)

  • @christinestromberg4057

    If you love theatrics you'll have so much fun with VoicePlay. Many of their videos are very theatrical. A few suggestions: This is Halloween, Kidnap the Sandy Claws, Hoist The Colours, The Dragonborn Comes (skyrim(), and Valhalla Calling. Geoff has now released Jack;s Lament. He's also done The Headless Horseman and The Monster Mash. Defintiely worth checking out

  • @Broomrider1492
    @Broomrider1492 Před 8 měsíci +3

    Geoff just released a new Halloween video. JACKS LAMENT for The Nightmare Before Christmas. #TheatreKidsOfACapella. VoicePlay has released a new video also. HELLFIRE from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

  • @janetdw
    @janetdw Před 8 měsíci

    Well you found the right group if you like theatrics! Most of them have been performers at Disney or Universal Studios, so it comes pretty easily to them and they excel at it. They don’t always do the whole dress up thing, but it’s not uncommon.
    Some of the more theatrical pieces where they dressed up were Hoist the Colours, Dragonborn/Skyrim, Valhalla calling, and definitely In the Hall of the Mountain King!
    Halloween is the favorite holiday of both VoicePlay and Geoff. Each year VoicePlay has put out in a spooky season release. They aren’t all specifically Halloween but they all have something sort of spooky about them.
    They previously covered four songs from Nightmare before Christmas; What’s This, Kidnap the Sandy Claws, This is Halloween and, of course, the famous Oogie Boogie song. This years Jack’s Lament by Geoff is my favorite, and it has stiff competition.
    Last year they did DingDong/Hide and Seek with Lauren Paley who made this song viral by singing it in her stairwell to scare her neighbors. They have also done Stevie Wonder’s Superstition, and I’ve Got Friends on the Other Side from Disney’s Princess and the Frog. They also have two versions of Grim Grinning Ghosts from Disney’s haunted mansion. One while they were backstage between sets which is performed live. In the other they are the singing busts from the mansion. There is also a very old cover of Once Upon a Dream, I think done about the time the second Maleficent movie was released, that is haunting.
    Although not specifically Halloween last year they also did in the Hall of the Mountain King from the Peer Gynt suite. It’s a classical orchestral piece with no words. But they told a story anyway of a group of trolls surrounding a cauldron adding a new ingredient each time they wanted their voices to change. It’s pretty amazing.
    VoicePlay just released their 2023 cover. The song is dramatic and haunting and creepy and beautiful. Geoff once again is playing a dual personality. The song is powerful and disturbing at the same time and the cover is brilliant.
    Geoff has done three before starting when he launched his solo channel. The first year he did Headless Horseman which was featured in a 1958 animated short by Disney. That was followed by Monster Nash, and last year he did Ghost Riders in the Sky.

  • @bartonbagnes4605
    @bartonbagnes4605 Před 8 měsíci

    They are definitely the most theatrical of the acapella groups. Whether covering Disney or Queen, they always bring their A game.

  • @bjspeck4337
    @bjspeck4337 Před 8 měsíci

    Geoff just did another from the Nightmare Before Christmas; Jack's Lament. It is a solo and gorgeous, he also has 3 other Halloween videos - The Monster Mash, The Headless Horseman and Ghostriders in the Sky. VoicePlay videos you really should see for the Halloween season - In the Hall of the Mountain King, the newest one is Hellfire IWOW), Friends on the Other Side, Queen in 5 minutes, This is Halloween, Superstition, Phantom of the Opera, Hoist the Colours.

    if you liked them, try their newest video, "hellfire" the song of frollo, from the disney movie "hunchback of notre dame" that really shows the range of all of them...
    but overall, you can never go wrong with a voiceplay video....

    @DavideBaroni Před 8 měsíci +4

    You chose the most "cartoonish" song as your introduction to Voiceplay... But they are incredibly versatile, and cover pretty much all genres. 🙂
    I'd suggest their "Vikings" pair of videos... "My mother told me", followed (a couple years later) by "Valhalla calling". You'll have theatrical, incredible voice performance, production, whatever.
    But I'd also suggest more things that will blow your mind. Here's a brief list:
    - their "Post-apocalyptic trilogy", made of, in chronological order, "Warriors" (Imagine Dragons), "Dream on" (Aerosmith) and "7 Nation Army" (The White Stripes).
    - Their videogame soundtrack series... "Halo Theme" (with a long spoken outro by the guest artist and founding member of Voiceplay, a touching explanations about the video and the reasons behind it that's well worth listening) and "The Dragonborn comes - Skyrim" above all
    - their Halloween stuff (they OWN Halloween!), like all the others from Nightmare before Christmas, or "Ding dong - Hide and seek", or "In the hall of the Mountain King", classical instrumental piece from Edvard Grieg's "Peer Gynt" that they turned into an incredible, hilarious, creative performance with no words and a whole lot of story-telling
    - more "pop" songs like "Can't help falling in love", "True colors", "I can't make you love me" (prepare a whole box of Kleenex for this one), and more
    - this version of Metallica's "Nothing else matters".. A true masterpiece
    - whatever else 😅
    See you next time!

  • @TheFireMonkey
    @TheFireMonkey Před 8 měsíci

    you should try their cover of We Don't Talk About Bruno, or perhaps a medley The LIttle Mermaid or Moana ... just a couple that pop into my head which give a wide range of what they do.

      He has, on video at one point or another, hit every note from B0 at the very bottom of the piano, all the way up to A5, in the tenor range. This song and Hellfire, their most recent release, are the two best showing how massive his range is.

I love them both but Homefree edges them out for me prolly only cause I found them first and been listening to them longer, and Ive seen them live 3 times lol.
