- We're already hooked on Pentatonix! Wow..
Can't wait for more!
Love you!

Scott can sing from bass right up to tenor (and falsetto), he has incredible range. Mitch has a 6 octave range. Kirstin sits naturally in the higher range, but has a beautiful lower tone. Kevin not only beatboxes, but has a beautiful tenor voice, while Matt is technically their bass, but can get a falsetto out too. All of them are mad talented, and that's not including the instruments they can play AND their songwriting skills. Avi (from the original line up) is a bassundo profundo ( he is classically trained), but has a gorgeous baritone to tenor range too.
Looking forward to following your PTX journey! For something different, try 'Can't Hold Us'. Yes, they can also rap. 😁
So you want to hear Havana to see Kevin make a brass instrument out of his mouth. And the Michael Jackson Medley to hear him hit the high notes.
The original was a warning... Disturbed did it with the anger of those of us are angry the original words weren't heeded... Pentatonix brings back hope people will finally listen and understand the importance of the message...
That's how I see it!
Kevin, the beatboxer, does sing solos occasionally. He is a tenor and has a higher voice than most people would guess.
Here’s a challenge for hardcore Pentaholics: relisten to Mad World, listening for Kirstie’s parts, Mitch’s parts, and Kevin’s parts, individually (multiple watches required), to hear the different high harmonic lines. Since there’s no beatboxing, and it’s largely 5-part harmony, Kevin’s high tone is the most undervalued part of that song. His solos may be great, but where he really shines (aside from ALL of his instrumentation, percussion or otherwise) is in their 5-part harmony sections (including harmonizing on the high parts of “let me goooo,” in Bohemian Rhapsody). Kevin really is the glue that makes Pentatonix Pentatonix. The day Scott saw the celloboxing vid, and said “That’s our missing piece,” should be a national holiday.
Amazing Grace and Mary Did You Know are both good example of Kevin singing
Coming from a Pentaholic, EVERYTHING they sign is fantastic, original and mind blowing. You have to watch Oh Come All Ye Faithful, Hallelujah... There are so many that you will just want to listen 24/7.
SING. sorry!
I love watching reactors that discover PTX and go down the rabbit hole. I look forward to seeing other PTX reactions form you. A quick run down of the group. On the video from left to right, Matt, Kirstin, Scott, Mitch and Kevin. Matt replaced Avi in 2018 when Avi left the group, amicably so you'll see Avi in the older videos and Matt in the newer ones. People always think there are more changes to the people than that but Mitch and Kirstin change looks all the time. Kevin will bring out Beyonce (his cello) in some songs and beat boxes at the same time..."celloboxing". You'll get requests for a whole range of songs to react to but two of my favorites are The Prayer and Thank You.
I never get tired of watching that look of stunned silence on the faces of people who watch PTX for the 1st or 2nd time!!!!! Love your reviews; love PTX!!
Upbeat definitely 90s dance medley
Anchor is a great pentatonix original. Brought tears.
Love the easy and comfortable feel of your reactions. Adds to the enjoyment of the music itself. And no music is better than PTX music.
Everything they do is great. I could listen to them all day. You should watch the Hallelujah Live video. So the first guy is Matt. He is the only one that wasn't an original member. He replaced Avi. Next is Kirstin. The guy in the middle is Scott. Next is Mitch. And the end is Kevin. He is amazing. He sings, plays the cello, and does the beat boxing.
Kevin does what he calls ‘celloboxing’, where he plays cello while beatboxing…he is overly talented!
@@tiffanytosh1569
Kevin? The guy who graduated pre-med from Yale, speaks Spanish and Mandarin, played piano and alto sax at Carnegie Hall, invented cello boxing and met the other four members of Pentatonix a day before the auditions for the sing-off and just nailed it? Yeah, I'd say he's pretty over-talented.
@@HelenWheelsUtah exactly…😄😄😄
You might want to listen to a young Russian singer - Diana Ankudinova who is 18 years old in this video, singing a very unique cover of Elvis Presley's Can't Help Falling In Love. She's a contralto, and a commanding stage presence.
czcams.com/video/e28Cmrx-i5A/video.html
This performance was from a Russian show that aired last fall, and ran for 9 weeks. There were 9 singers who were also the judges and critiqued each other. There were 9 genres of music they had to perform over the course off the show. Thus Diana sang in many different styles.
Diana (dee-ah-na) was abandoned by her abusive mother at the age 3 at a bus stop in the winter with a broken collarbone and placed in an orphanage, diagnosed with cognitive impairment. Her adoptive mother had her enroll in singing lessons to help with some speech problems due to abuse and neglect. Her singing talent was immediately noticed and the rest, as they say, is history.
The most upbeat Pentatonix song is their original song called “Sing”.
His name is Scott Hoying, and he is their baritone. He also does the bass line whenever first Avi and now Matt, the two basses they have had and the only personnel change they have made sang lead. Her name is Kirsten Maldonado, and she is their mezzo-soprano and their best belter. The black guy on the right side in the darker coat is Kevin Olusola. He is a tenor and their beatboxer. The black guy on the left in the white coat is Matt Sallee. He is their current bass. And finally, Mitch Grassi is a countertenor of extraordinary control and range. Their original bass was Avi Kaplan. The parting of ways was amicable and was because he had family health issues with his mother.
To hear how high Scott (aka Devlin) can go in his falsetto, listen to their cover of Ariana Grande's Problem - but watch the version for 3FM Live, to see how they perform it live. And Mitch does the rap section without a flaw!
You've heard some of Mitch's beautiful high tenor/countertenor notes, but a great one to hear him sing high throughout most of the song is The Prayer. That also gives you another example of Scott's lower register - while he's singing in Italian!
Kirstie is a mezzo soprano, and can reach both some amazing highs, and can sing low comfortably - check out Rather Be, where she has the lead for the entire song, and sings most of it in her lower register. For an example of highs, check out the video of Seasons of Love, recorded live for PBS Independence Day celebration in 2021 - her final run is amazing!
Matt (in the white jacket) is the "new" bass, joining the group in 2017 after the original bass Avi Kaplan left amicably for personal reasons (Avi recently released his first album for his growing solo career). You heard Matt pop down to his bass range at the end of his solo, but he can go a lot deeper than that - just listen for the bass line in about any song. And he's got an amazing falsetto as well - check out When You Wish Upon A Star has no official video, but there's a "Yule Log" video. And Kirstie also finishes up that song with some amazing high notes as well!
Kevin (the beatboxer) has a beautiful tenor voice. While he's not as high as Mitch, his falsetto can actually hit as high or higher than Mitch. The best example is their cover of John Lennon's Imagine.
Scott (the guy in the middle, who started the song) is a baritone with extended range on both the top and bottom of his range, including a respectable falsetto. He fills in for the bass when the bass is singing up front. He gets a little less notice than some of the others, but he is the "story teller" of the group (super clean, clear voice perfect for projecting lyrics) and often carries the backbone of the leads.
If you want to cry, listen to "Thank You"
Aww y'all are cute and I definitely saw the whole range of emotions 😂. You will get even more involved once you learn their names, and maybe even dive into their solo works and side projects. Also maybe throw in a live performance 🥰 so fun!
Thank you! ❤️
Scott is the middle guy, Matt was in white jacket, Kevin is the beat boxer who also plays ch'ella, Kirstin is the lady and you do know Mitch with the magic voice.
their performance of My favorite things from their evergreen show is SO good i think you guys would love it.
From left to right:
Matt Sallee (bass)
Kirsten Maldonado (mezzo-soprano)
Scott Hoying (baritone)
Mitch Grassi (tenor)
Kevin Olusola (vocal percussion, tenor and cello)
not featured in this video:
Avi Kaplan (bass, before 2018)
These folks are insanely talented and they are very professional in how they present their songs, sold-out
world tours, 3 Grammies, over 200 covers and originals. Not a bad one in the bunch. We fans are Pentaholics.
Please join us and learn their name s.
Tall. Blonde. Scott. Baritone. Can go from bass to tenor
Mullet. Mitch. Counter tenor. Astounding 6 octave and one tone range
Lady. Kirsty. Mezzo soprano. Strong voice and whistle tones
Base. Matt 2017- now Great range Avi bass profundo. Original bass. 2011-2017. Left friendly has solo career
Beat boxer. Kevin Classically trained cellist. Can play cello and beat box at same time. Cello/ boxing. Sings tenor
If they use an instrument you will see it Otherwise it’s all them.
For as talented as they are and how good their songs are, they can't get mainstream radio to play them.
@@Tammy-km5uf it’s so frustrating. Radio has decided a Capella is only for Christmas music. I don’t understand why
@@bonnieflynn4798 I know. Each one of them is more talented than 90% of "top" artists.
@@Tammy-km5uf FACTS!
just to add to your list
Scott - eargasum
Mitch - slapped
Kirsty - kissed
Matt - boomed
Kevin - K.O.ed
Scott (Devlin!) has incredible range - he does the bass line when Matt (and before him Avi) sing their solo verses. If you watch 'Problem' though - Scott goes as high as Mitch and Mitch has admitted that Kevin (the beatboxer) can sing even higher than him! If you want another one that tugs at the heart string and shows off Mitch and Scott - watch The Prayer (it's a cover of Celine Dion and Andrea Boccelli) and Scott sings in Italian in it. It's the most beautiful piece I've ever heard, closely followed by their version of Hallelujah and this one.
In Middle - Scott, (Baritone, takes over bass when Avi/Matt are singing lead). Mitch (countertenor - being Mitch Slapped = being surprised by Mitchell‘s voice). Kristen (soprano) can belt with the best of them. Matt (Bass - replaced Avi when he left the group for personal reasons). Kevin (beatboxer, cellist , tenor) was discovered on CZcams by Scott from Kevin’s channel where he plays the cello and does beatboxing at the same time. Brought him on just before they went on the TV program “Sing Off”. (Needed five members to be able to apply to be on the TV show. Brought on Avi and Kevin for the show).
Their most beautiful song IMO is their rendition of Amazing Grace. That song will give you chills and all the feels. But for more upbeat try Sing, or their 90s Dance Medley.
Welcome to the Pentaholics! Down the rabbit hole you go. Learn the band members names as fast as you can because now that the PTX community has discovered you, your viewership is about to multiply exponentially!
I love Amanda’s reaction! 😂 You guys are awesome! Really enjoyed this.
Pentatonix and Home Free are the best Acapella groups out there. So many suggestions.
Pentatonix:
" Can't Hold Us "
" The Prayer "
" Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy "
" Evolution of Rhianna "
" Evolution of Michael Jackson "
" La La Latch " many more.
Home Free:
" Man Of Constant Sorrow "
" Helplessly Hoping "
" Mayday "
" Butts Remix " many more 🤣
But very honorable mentions are "Citizen Queen" and "Voctave" in my happy acapella world.
This is just a tremendously beautiful song. Paul Simon is a word wizard. Upbeat?? "Love Again" (early original/yes they can do EDM) Sing (mid original) Happy Now (Late original) Kirstie (like thirsty)or Al as you named her LOL is such a glorious belter. As you watch you will see when they turn up the power it is Kirstie almost all the time. Just unearthly vocal talents. To hear Kevin's voice try "Imagine"
Ptx gold, sing, somebody I use to know, happy now
Yes, please learn their names. :). I’ve heard the different versions of this song described this way, and it’s rung true for me. The original by Simon & Garfunkel was the warning, Disturbed was the apocalyptic “it’s happened”, and the PTX version is a sign of hope that it can be made right again.
Mitch and Scott also have a side project called Superfruit. You should react to their Defying Gravity cover from Wicked. It’s super awesome!!
Thank you for reacting to this amazing Pentatonix video. They are incredible. For some fun Pentatonix videos please react to: "My Favorite Things", "Can't Hold Us", "Come Along", "Sing", and "Break My Heart" to start.
Pentatonix is awesome and so hard to ignore. Wonderful, beautiful music that is literally angelic and world leading.
Lol!! I love your monologue- y’all are very cute and funny together!! ♥️
But in all seriousness… Please learn their real names. They deserve to be recognized for what they do by their God-given names - IMO.
Scott - tall blond in center
Mitch- short guy who sings up to the stratosphere!
Kirstie- the only girl
Matt - bass in this video
Avi was the bass before Matt
Kevin the amazing beat box master!!
Love you guys!
Thank you for reacting. Enjoyed it. I got chills also! I love PTX (Pentatonix). Scott is the guy in the middle, Mitch on his left, Kevin on Mitch's left. Scott's far right, Matt, only girl Kirsty. (rhymes with thirsty). Check out their song New Rules/Are You That Somebody. The intro is amazing, beatboxing and Bass! Thanks again.
"Devlin" (aka Scott) doubles on the bass parts when the bass singer (we'll call him "Matt") sings a lead part. He's fantastically talented. (Oh, and the "beats guy", Kevin, is actually a fantastic singer and sings on several of their songs.)
Great reaction. Pentatonix is incredibly talented. I love accapella. There is another accapella group called "Home Free". A bit country with a cross over to pop. Check them out, you won't be disappointed. ❤️✌️
Y’all need to listen to them perform Amazing Grace! I think it’s the best they have done!
Great reaction to this powerful upgrade!
Yep great song. Its been covered more then 600 times I hear
You may find it worthwhile to listen to their cover of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody," as well as "Hallelujah." and "Radioactive." And if you want to hear them do instruments watch their "Dance of the Sugarplum Faeries" from the Nutcracker Suite.
God created perfection, he created PTX.
Oh Amanda....you said u want to know more about them. They got there start by winning the music competition on the show " The Sing-Off "in 2011. Check it out from the show how they won.
White jacket Matt. Bass
Girl, Kirsty. Middle guy, Scott, baritone tenor Mitch , counter tenor and Kevin, beat box, tenor and cellist.
Loved the reaction, especially Amanda who was just 100% INVESTED 😂
Would love to see the other reactions you mentioned, presume they’re blocked due to copyright? Don’t worry about covering the video more - us Pentaholics are here for your reactions , we know the videos inside out 👍🏻
Very fun reaction!! I notice that you are relatively new to PTX. Welcome to the rabbit hole! From what you already have watched, you know they are really good! Here are two of MY favorites (it's like picking a favorite ice cream flavor... almost impossible)... For mesmerizing visuals AND amazing vocals AND a completely new twist on an old classic... try My Favorite Things. Originally from the Sound of Music, these folks just make it THEIRS! For a shorter redo of a classic, try Auld Lang Syne. Much shorter short, but it has incredible harmonies with chords I have never even HEARD before. This one s all 5 singing... no beat boxing. There are SO many great originals and covers out there. I'm going to go check out your other reactions! Enjoy!!
So this is the first time I've seen a reaction from you guys and I really enjoyed it. I feel like Amanda went on a journey in this one LOL. I'm not seeing your other PTX reactions besides Can You Feel the Love Tonight? You mentioned the 90's Dance Medley and Daft Punk. They have a huge catalog of originals and covers to choose from. I saw a bunch of suggestions in the comments already so I think you've got a good place to start. Subbing for more PTX :)
You should do one of the "Evolution of" videos. I think that those make it really easy to see each person and the part they play in making the music. The Evolution of Ariana Grande will give you a front row to the bass and beatboxer and how much they are actually doing. The talent is just crazy.
You should hear their original song Sing. It is insane and so much fun
They have great original music too. I love happy now, can't sleep love and coffee in bed.
I just subbed in hopes of more Pentatonix reactions! 💖
There is a Beginners Guide for them. It really helps to learn who they are....
Scott Hoying is in the blond in the middle with the amazing baritone voice- Kirstie Maldonado (pronounced like "thirsty") is the woman- then Matt Sallee is the bass- both are amazing. Mitch Grassi is well, Mitch, and he mitch-slaps everyone with his amazing voice. The beat-boxer is Kevin Olusola, who is also an accomplished singer and an amazing cellist. They are all incredible. Keep diving down the PTX rabbit hole- you don't be disappointed.... :)
cute widdle doggy. No one upgrades like PTX. Their originals are incredible as well. Try Love Again.
Great reaction. Subscribing for the Pentatonix videos.
So you said you want to hear other instrument like a piccolo?? It's a Christmas song but check out the Yule Log Video for Once Upon A December. It's crazy! 💞
Mitch and Kirstie routinely cover for one another when they are singing lead, as do Matt/Avi and Scott when they are singing the lead. With the generous overlap in their ranges, they have the ability to ebb and flow with their voices without leaving any gaps when one steps to the fore. And even though we never really see it in the videos, in the live shows, Matt and Scott are pretty good beatboxers and can cover the basics for Kevin when he steps up to sing lead for the small parts he does.
I recommend Imagine and Bohemian Rhapsody.
Loved the candid reaction. It becomes difficult to stay fresh when reacting to Pentatonix. There are only so many superlative adjectives to use for what they do. Sometimes, one is so impressed and/or moved that words are hard to find. And, good job of avoiding being blocked.
Matt does a sick sliding base in „Havanna“. Kevin (the beatboxer) sings in „amazing Grace“, „Marry did you know“ and some other songs as well.
Kevin, the beatboxer, does throat bass - very rarely because it can cause damage - in songs like Love Again and Problem... which is basically the beatboxer doing the bass like you were talking about, even though it's not a note he can "sing". He also adds the high background in some songs because he is a tenor... naturally lower than Mitch's but with a very high falsetto. As far as switching it up... their current bass, Matt, adds the high note at the end of their live performance of Joyful, Joyful. And Mitch does a pretty respectable low A2 for Take On Me. You're right, though, every member of PTX has at least a 4 octave range.
Actually, Avi did the throat bass in Problem. Kevin may do it since Avi left, but until then Avi did it. Kevin did it in Love Again.
Thank you for the video
Ptx!
try mad world and imagine as well. there is so much going on in their songs that you have to go back and listen to see what each person is doing. its a lot to take in on first listen
Great reaction. I kept thinking "breathe girl"!! Some other great ones are the Prayer, Amazing Grace, Problem, Can't Hold Us, Imagine, Sing, Can't Help Falling In Love, Can You Feel the Love Tonight, and a personal favorite .. Mad World! Here for the ride. Enjoy it all!!
Nice reaction guys. You hooked me. Subbed. Love PTX, and Shallow is my fav. Kevin "cello boxes" and Kirsty shines. Thanks and cheers from Aus.
I'm from Brazil, react Pentatonix Mary did You Know.
If you want to hear Mitch use his lower register, you need to check out Amazing Grace. If you want to hear Scott ( Devlin) get really high with his voice, you should check out Problems ( Mitch raps in that one too)
No one does it better that PTX
for all the vocal analysts, Mitch, the 2nd vocalist, is a counter-tenor....in this ( & other performances ) his harmonies are in a higher register that Kirstie, the female vocalist.....listen closely, please
You guys have to react to their cover of Amazing Grace, it's awesome!
From left to right on screen we have Matt the newer bass, Kirstin, Scott , Mitch and Kevin the beatboxer
Scott can go high too. Check out Scott and Mitch in their Superfruit spoof of Defying Gravity. You will not be disappointed!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For an upbeat song, recommend their cover of Come Along.
Kevin goes super high on “Imagine”....
Oh by the way, they won 3 Grammy's for what they do.....pretty cool
Omg you should see home free doing ring of fire with avi caplan he used to sing with pentatonix and did hallelujah with them
I really enjoyed your reaction. Scott (Devlin) and the rest of the guys outdid themselves here. You really should pay more attention to them. I particularly noticed Matt on this one because the was the first PTX video I saw him on. Thanks for posting.
I cannot wait until you travel down the rabbit hole of PTX. Might I suggest you follow their discography from beginning to now? They have grown so much. Check out Aha, and the live version. Mitch goes off the chain and Avi blew the speakers up during the show. I also encourage you to look at Hallelulah Live. You wanted to know if they were the same live as in recordings. They do not do songs they cannot do live, FULL STOP Their covers of Bohemian Rhapsody, Imagine and a lot of their originals are pretty amazing. PLEASE MAKE UP A PLAYLIST OF THEIR VIDEOS? I love to come back and re-watch them. Thank you for sharing your love of music! I subscribed to look forward to more of them. Also, for copyright issues, I suggest you place a blurring vision, or darken the video. Us Pentaholics are used to their music being blocked. Do whatever you need to do to get the videos shared.
You want some good beats and bass, check out "New Rules/Are You That Somebody." Matt and Kevin will blow your faces off.
Check out disturbs cover of the sound of silence it’s amazing if you haven’t already you will not be disappointed
Also, making a video transparent like you did is a good idea. But I would keep the lettering you put on there solid and not transparent. And it helps to pause a couple times throughout the video to avoid copyright. Remember, we come for your reaction, not the video. We've all seen the video several times.
I'm new to your channel, so I don't know if you've already seen their version of "Havana"; you can't miss the beat & Kevin "plays" a cornet.
You should watch Kevin's channel (he's the beat boxer). He does looping. Literally a one man band.
Devlin!!!,
Having trouble uploading? Try making the original video more transparent, or putting type over it. Pentaholics expect some pausing mid-song, as well. We know it's irksome to have to figure out work-a-rounds, but the fan base is huge, we've watched the original PTX versions and now it's your reaction we look for.
hi new here from ireland love your reaction to pentatonix . here are some others you might like. by pentatonix new rules. havana. cheer leader. the prayer. perfume medley. sing. radio active. rather be. pompeii. la la latch. shallow. love again. also super fruit who are scott and mitch . rise. the promise. good bye from lonely. guy exe. frozen with bloopers. future friends. hip hop goes broad way 1.2 with bloopers. beyonce. frozen with bloopers. and scott hoying mario jose lost on you
From your comments it sounds like you ran into some copyright issues with posting PTX stuff. In addition to the filter, you may want to pause periodically & comment. You can always rewind a bit to get back to the beginning of a phrase. Less likely to get blocked this way.
OK, perhaps a bit early on your journey down the rabbit hole, but not too much. Perhaps check out the "Beginners Guide to Pentatonix" czcams.com/video/lDxIfwfCmQE/video.html which introduces each member with a few clips of songs they solo. This is followed by a brief history of the group up to a couple of years ago when this was made.
Disturbed ftw
booboolu u guys should do the wizard of ahhhhhs and bring back the memories of ur childhood best tv show. it will blow u away just like can u feel the love tonight. give it a try booboolu's

How come it only has two of your PTX reactions?
Wonderful reaction. Thanks. PTX is so amazing that sometimes it's hard to know what to say other than "Holy shit... I have chills." I have been listening for years and still say it. Kevin Olusola (the beatboxer) can sing too and is full of surprises. Check this out:
