About Pentatonix: Masters of Modern A Cappella

Hailing from Arlington, Texas, Pentatonix have achieved a level of global acclaim rarely seen in the a cappella genre. Formed in 2011, the quintet – comprising Scott Hoying (baritone), Mitch Grassi (tenor), Kirstin Maldonado (mezzo-soprano), Kevin Olusola (beatboxer), and Matt Sallee (bass) – first rose to prominence after winning the third season of the US version of The Sing-Off. Their innovative approach to vocal arrangements, blending intricate harmonies, innovative beatboxing, and a charismatic stage presence, quickly set them apart.

Their breakthrough came with their debut studio album, PTX, Vol. 1, and subsequent releases, which consistently charted high and garnered widespread critical praise. Pentatonix are renowned for their masterful reinterpretations of popular hits, infusing them with their signature sound, as well as for their original material. Notable hits that have dominated charts and captured the hearts of millions include their dazzling covers of “Daft Punk” (a medley featuring “Get Lucky,” “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger,” and “Around the World”), “Hallelujah,” “Light in the Hallway,” and their Grammy Award-winning rendition of Dolly Parton’s “Jolene.” Their Christmas albums, particularly That’s Christmas to Me, have become perennial favourites, showcasing their ability to craft moving and festive vocal arrangements. With multiple platinum-selling albums, three Grammy Awards, and a legion of dedicated fans worldwide, Pentatonix continue to push the boundaries of what a cappella can achieve, delivering performances that are both technically brilliant and deeply engaging.
