If you have to ask, "Is that Mitch or Kirstie?", the answer is always yes. They change their looks quite often. Kevin is playing the electric cello. When he beatboxes while playing the cello, he calls it cello boxing. I would describe Pentatonix as overachieving perfectionists. They just continue to get better and better. I just do not know how they get better and better. Every time you hear a new song of theirs, you think they have achieved their highest level. The next one they release is better than the last one. How is that even possible? You really need to check their cover of O Holy Night!! BEST VERSION I HAVE EVER HEARD!!!

Most famous singers have their songs played on the radio and that is how they are identified. Pentatonix, being a niche a cappella group, gets radio time only during the holiday season, so therefore are not heard nearly as much. But...one reactor at a time....Pentatonix is growing in popularity. I wouldn't be surprised if their popularity skyrocketed while they were on the Masked Singer. If you want a treat, react to their performances on the Masked Singer......all of their performances all in one video plus their reveal. I look forward to you knowing each of their names, besides Mitch. Kevin, the beatboxer, cello player, and singer (and more). Kirstie, the female. Matt, the bass, who can also sing lead as he does here. Scott the tall blonde. On to your next PTX reaction!

Yeah, he can beatbox. He can play cello and electric cello He can sing...in perfect pitch And he can play saxophone. In fact, he has appeared twice at Carnegie Hall, as a teenager. Once on sax and once on cello. And he does some of the arranging...not all of it, but some.

Thanks for the shout out. Never mind about the name mangling. Ok with me. One of my fav videos now. Mitch was in his Freddie Mercury look in this video. He just transitioned and changed again. Wait for a new video to see his new look. He has the Freddy look for almost 3 years. Kevin is a classic overachiever. He learned to sing well after joining PTX. He gearboxes, raps, plays the cello saxophone and the piano. He has played twice at Carnegie Hall by 17, one with the saxophone, the other, the traditional cello. He now writes and arranges music and can speak 6 languages and had just passed his pre med entrance exam at Yale when he left for PTX. His 2 cellos are named Beyonce, a traditional wood cello and Mr. Carter , the electric one u just saw. You can see Kevin live in Concert in Kevin's Fifth and also, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy reimagined I think. A nice and humble man

The instrument is Kevin's electric cello. Kevin began piano lessons at age 4, cello at age 6, and alto saxophone at age 10. He beatboxes while playing the cello, a technique he calls "celloboxing." He performed at Carnegie Hall twice when he was a teenager, once on cello and once on saxophone. It was a viral video on KZbin of Kevin celloboxing that first brought him to the attention of the trio (Scott, Kirstin, and Mitch) back in 2011 when they were desperately searching for a beatboxer to fill out the band so they could appear on _The Sing-Off._ You can hear both Scott and Kevin tell the story if you watch "The Kevin Show/Kevin's Fifth." This is a live feed from a concert they gave in Owensboro, Kentucky, Kevin's home town: kzbin.info/www/bejne/epOmkqasmLOrbZo Kevin's acoustic cello is named Beyoncé, and Kevin had planned to call his electric cello "Jay-Z," but his mom likes "Mr. Carter" better. Meet Mr. Carter.

PTX is revolutionary. They embraced acapella, which for years had been cheesy, predictable and stale, turned it on its head, used their innovative creativity and talent to arrange and create incredible songs, and made acapella into a totally new musical genre. They are an enigma.

Kirstie - All right boys...voices and cello up Mitch - LoOove remains - MiniMitchSlap Scott - Blue Eyed Soul Dragon Drive-by Matt - Renames song 'Falsetto from a Bass' Kevin - "Hold my bow".. "BaaaaBYY!!!!".... Note all of the members except Kevin just might have a greater connection with this song than they know....we would have to ask their parents. This was some serious baby making music in the 90s. Having your song sung by Pentatonix is becoming an award...as it should be. Mitch and Kirstie have both said Kevin has the highest register in the group, his falsetto is fantastic.

PTX is phenomenal and my favorite group but your music life will be woefully incomplete without listening to these other 3. 1. Smoothness defined. Basia - Cruising for Bruising 1990 ( German TV) 2. A voice, lyrics and harmonies from the 70's that will still touch your soul - The drummer who could also sing. Carpenters - Rainy Days & Mondays channel: Carpenters Carpenters - Superstar channel: Carpenters Carpenters - Close to You channel: ryanche33 3. A timeless voice from the 60's (rich963 has the good stuff.) The Seekers - I'll Never Find Another You (HQ Stereo, 1964/'68) The Seekers - Georgy Girl (1967 - Stereo)

8:08 The other day I corrected another pentaholic who had written something inaccurate in a comment. She thanked me. That's the nice thing about pentaholics; even when we've never met in person we're part of a community and we try to act like one. We may disagree, but we don't engage in fan feuds. Pentatonix is proud of their fan base. Yes, I'm sure they're gratified that there are so many of us, but they're PROUD that we're a community, that their music spreads love and attracts loving people to follow them. You don't have a Pentatonix playlist, so it's hard to be sure which songs you've already reacted to. Have you watched their official video of "Imagine" yet? If not, it's high time you did. Trust me on this one; it's relevant.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXiweaSPrdWhsM0si=3FyVsXsfBeXb_YZ3 Brand new to your channel, enjoying your reactions! Yes, Kevin is ridiculous! 😆 Not only can he beatbox, he can sing like an angel, he has perfect pitch, he is fluent in mandarin or Korean, He was getting his medical degree, I don't know if he finished that or not. He can play that cello, which is what he is playing here, he can play the saxophone, he can play the piano, he can do many of them at the same time which is incredible. He also is just a genuinely nice guy! I met him once he is so giving to his fans and just incredible you can tell he's just a fantastic human being husband, father... The list goes on and on and on! I'd love to see your reaction from this 2016 live performance from Pentatonix. It is 4 songs you know 3 of which are original songs By Pentatonix! But I think you'll really enjoy it you can see what they do live and this is just 1 of the best filmed and sound quality live performances you'll find.
