Pentatonix is an Acapella group. They make all the sounds with their voices. Once in a while they use real instruments for example the beat boxer plays the cello in a couple of videos. Avi is the bass (low male voice with beard) in this video, Scott is a baritone with a wide range (blonde hair), Mitch (in the hat) is a tenor, Kirstie is the soprano, and Kevin is the beat boxer/drummer when he sings, he sings tenor. A simple introduction to Pentatonix. I hope you do more.

Absolutely right that it's not a Gospel song. I might be the only person on the planet who gets annoyed about this song. I agree it's got a nice melody and it's very sing-able, but the words are basically ridiculous. It paints King David as the victim and Bathsheba as the aggressor, when it was actually the opposite. Cohen even makes irrelevant allusion to Samson and Delilah with the "cutting hair" thing. Just a mish-mash of Bible references that impresses people simply because of the praise-word Hallelujah.

Yay Pentatonix! My favorite current-day, young group. As many commenters have already said, they are an acapella group. No musical instruments - just voices, hand claps, beat boxing (on a couple songs, the beat boxing guy, Kevin, plays the cello, but that is very much the exception). They do a full range of song styles, from old to new. Their sound is just amazing for 5 people, no instruments. A few of my Pentatonix favorites include "Sound of Silence" "Imagine" "Dreams"

I have asked the twins multiple times to listen to Jeff Buckley’s rendition. Hands-down the best one! Jeff Buckley was taken from the earth to soon and the entire Grace album is unbelievable start to finish.

Always a pleasure to watch reactions by these two. Pentatonix is one of the best acapella bands ever! Good choice for an intro to them. There are so many more to listen to as well. I have had the pleasure of seeing them perform in person and their voices are magical.

You don’t have to understand a word of this song…the longing in this song touches your soul….and if you have a heart , you will cry…

You do realise these guys are singing accapello with no instruments. Any sounds are from the black guy Kevin beat boxing. You need to watch them sing "sound of silence" to understand

This group is pure vocals only. There are no instruments other than voice and body. That is one of the most amazing things about this besides all of their wonderful voices. And each has individual amazing talent but combined, well, they are Angels

Kudos to Pentatonix for this fantastic rendition of the late, great Leonard Cohen’s masterpiece. Another one that deserves listening to is K.D. Lang’s version.

Yay finally! Welcome to Pentatonix (PTX) one of the best selling acapella groups. You can't go wrong with any of their songs. As a die hard Pentaholic (what Pentatonix fans call themselves) the more you listen to them, the more you want to hear.
