- Grammy-winning a capella darlings Pentatonix are bonafide internet superstars. Since 2011, their official RUclips channel has racked up 19 million subscribers and a whopping 5 billion views, and their off-line success is also pretty impressive. They have a double-platinum Christmas album ("That's Christmas to Me") and shelves full of industry awards, but all that success didn't come easily. The group has been grinding since day one. No doubt about it, Pentatonix's transformation is turning heads. Here's a look back at their journey from being "The Trio" on RUclips, to winning NBC's "The Sing Off," to their current global sensation status.

How long have you been a fan of Pentatonix?
Since they started on the Sing Off.
About a year!!! I’m still mad at myself for not finding them sooner but I’m glad I did find them!!
Since Christmas 2015 when "Mary Did You Know?" came out!
Since March 2016
Since the sing off, 10 years!
They are just unbelievable. Most groups have one or two who pretty much carry it. In Pentatonix, they are all 5 unbelievably talented. It is a rare thing. The video is correct. They do make us fans feel like we are part of their family.
Yes, even citizen queen is underrated as hell!
A capella groups require all members to be strong singers capable of leading on certain songs. # Take 6, Voctave, Manhattan Transfer, Voiceplay, etc🎵
Yes!
And they changed one member fairly recently - replaced one incredible talent with another

I was afraid that they wouldn't be able to replace Avi. As great as Avi is, and he is missed, Matt is a perfect fit for the group. I love him in Pentatonix.
Matt is a great singer, but he’s not Avi.
@@lfreddub2763 And he doesn't have to be Avi. Matt brings his own strengths.
I think if they ever did a one off reunion where Avi joined the current group (so with Matt) my head would explode.
@@millahnna oh ya!! how fun would that be?!!
@@KathyWashburnBunn exactly!!
Avi is missed but Matt is also amazing. It's always impressive watching Pentatonix's evolution 👏👏
You would think they were stuck in a time capsule at 2017, since Matt is noticeably absent from this "transformation" except a tiny snippet at the end and finally a few group photos with him. Seems intentional and disrespectful. There are several narrators that wish and try, but you can't erase Matt and his God-given, beautifully honed talent. May God continue to richly bless you Matt and your PTX family!
They were better with Avi, but I think Matt will continue to improve.
Avi is missed, but make sure you check out his cover of "Hey Ya" by Outkast if you haven't heard it
@@statenyoung8577 they are WAY better now
@@j.6133: I disagree. I’ve wanted Matt to do well, but I’ve only not missed Avi on ONE of the songs (the new version of Carol of the Bells) in the four years that Matt’s been with Pentatonix. Avi consistently had a mindblowingly deep resonance that Matt has only shown me once.
I love their rendition of Mary Did You Know. So powerful and so beautiful
Also Hallelujah!
Mary Did You Know is my 8 year olds favorite song!
And "The Prayer" is amazing too
@@hollybishop484 aww that’s really cute!
My favourite of theirs 😍
I know everyone's saying this, but I do miss Avi. Matt is a great singer and his bass really helps push PTX's pop sound. But Avi's bass was so grounded that it really brought the songs down to earth and (in my opinion) helped the band feel more well rounded. His solo music also speaks to me on a whole new level and I'm just happy to see him happy and thriving within his own career
I agree, but it was Avi’s decision to leave, so I have no problem
totally agree
I really miss Avi also. I still like listening too them, but something just seems to be missing without Avi.
@@robertalexander5892* to them
i’ve been listening to pentatonix since i was in 13 and i’m turning 20 on monday! i’ll always and forever have a special place in my heart for my favorite band 🫶🏻
Happy late b-day queen
@@sylvieolsson3537 thank you!!
Happy belated birthday 🎉🎂 hope it was a great one ☺️
I was in tears when I saw Avi's departure video, and I attended his final concert with PTX in Burlington, Vermont. I am glad, though, that he was and is able to create music on his own terms now and seems much more relaxed, and I am also glad Matt has merged into the group so well.
I do hope the group keeps in contact with Avi at least once in a while. They did spend so much time together, and it would be hard to just let that go.
He blocked their original album in 2018, because he wanted more money. He unfollowed some of them on all social media, he deleted his comments under their videos in 2018. Etc, Etc.
Avi and Pentatonix don't talk about each other much these days; it's understandable that they'd want to get out of each other's shadow. However, Avi and Kevin remain good friends. Avi attended Kevin's wedding, and Kevin attended at least one of Avi's solo concerts. The two sometimes interact on Twitter and have good things to say about each other in livestreams.
@@KathyWashburnBunn That makes sense. I’m glad Kevin and Avi are still on good terms 😊
@@j.6133 he wasn't happy with Kirstin's place in the group and told them it's him or Kirstin. That was a no-brainer for them of course. I think they couldn't have chosen a better replacement! Matt fit in perfectly!
@@brendajones9377 I have seen this posted but never have seen anything factual, just people posting about it. Wonder where this particular line started?
I am old school, 64 years old and love this group. Their style, talent and music, are amazing. THEY ARE SIMPLY, STARS!!!!
That’s great to hear! I feel as if Pentatonix reaches all types of fanbases and age groups since they are so talented and blend flawlessly into different genres.
I too am old school at 6 decades old and 1,000% agree so much talent here.
Same here
I also turned 64 this year and agree with all of you. Their music crosses all age groups! I hope they continue making music together for a very long time!!!
60 in March, and consider myself a Pentaholic! I especially love Mitch and his angelic voice! I hope he finds his forever guy who will treat him like the queen he is, makes him laugh and most importantly, loves him UNCONDITIONALLY! He deserves that!🥰
They're wonderful group singers and will never get tired of them, they should continue and stay stronger!
As a Barbershop Singer for over 26 years I find Pentatonix astonishing. Harmony, contrast emotion, sync and overall beauty. I prefer listening without opening my eyes in order to experience my full run of emotions and have more clarity. BRAVO
I received the news of Avi leaving while preparing for an examination and I was devastated. I'm just so happy that they found a new voice in Matt. He isn't Avi, his voice isn't Avi. But this didn't mean that he wasn't as good as Avi. I love the new energy he brought to the group.
I just was at their Xmas concert in Chicago. Their voices are even more amazing in person. It’s wild! Gave me goose bumps. Great show!
Thanks for sharing. Did you take any videos or photos? If so please post a link 😁
My mother and I recently saw them in Columbus, Ohio, as well, and luckily got front row seats, and I agree; Pentatonix is incredible, in general, and in their videos, but hearing them live is an entirely different experience within itself. ❤️✌️🏽
the passion for music and being great creators is so strong in everything they do! absolutely love how much they can draw from on that trait alone
🙏I've been following them since the Sing Off! They are spectacular! Someday, I'll be able to see them LIVE! 😍
My wife and I saw their Christmas show in 2019 - fantastic!
@@timlewis1956 nice!
Their sound is so unreal and just a treat to hear. I love those harmonies and the vocal agility of each singer.
I am honestly happy how the group and Avi are now. They do their own thing with Matt fitting them quite well, and Avi I can best describe as making some of the best music I have heard. What he makes is what he wants to make and it truly is music for the soul.
very true
They all are Extraordinary Talented and together they are One , complimenting each other’s Beautiful voice. I Love listening to them, their Unique sound is just so Incredibly Amazing !
Hello beautiful, how're you doing today.?
This group is so deserving of their success and future success. Incredible talent they all have! May there be more Grammy's for you in the future!
When my mother was alive she just loved this group. If they were on TV that's what you had to watch. I grew to love them also because of their beautiful voices and and how they use them together.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Pentatonix. Every member is super talented and together, they create magic. Their videos do make us fans feel connected to them and like they are family. They are mega talented! Their latest song, The Prayer is transcendently magical. They are a gift from heaven
Hello beautiful, how're you doing today.?
I heard Pentatonix for the first time like 5 years ago. My co-worker was listening to their Little Drummer Boy video and I was in awe!!
They are SO AMAZING! They deserve ALL this attention! I LOVE THEM!!😍 I've been a fan since The Sing Off days!!
Matt had some big shoes to fill and he did so flawlessly! He’s so incredibly talented and an all-around perfect choice! I absolutely adore and miss Avi, but I’m sure the door is always open for future collabs!💖
They are awesome! Love to watch an listen to them!!!
Just goes to show you that you don't need greedy corporations to get going, you just need talent. Like this group.
Beautiful singers . Love every thing about them all .
Started out as an early big fan. Their older stuff just sitting on a couch is still my fave timeframe. But artist change and they will leave some behind and also bring on new friends. Still wish them all the best.
Their Christmas albums are amazingly good!!! Christmas is not Christmas without pentatonix.
They are not afraid of turning off fans. They sing in a wide variety of music genres.
Unbelievable 💕❤️😘💕finding this group today is one of the best thing ever
They came to my city a few years ago and it was 1st concert I ever went to! Not alot of ppl I want to see live, but they were 1, and it was AMAZING!!! they fit so naturally, and every one of them have an amazing voice individually!! So good
Thier music always touch my 💜 heart
. I listen to them every day! They make my day!
How artists haven't gotten away from labels running their careers surprises me. I would have guessed by now labels would have been made irrelevant.
Pentatonix, Thank you for your gift to us. To this world today your gift of heartfelt music is like a warm blanket on a cold night.
My daughter surprised me for my birthday with tickets for Pentatonix in concert Dec 6 in Indianapolis! I so enjoyed their harmonies and talents! 10,000 plus in attendance and we all had our phone lights in at one point and the energy was amazing! By the way… my grandson joined us that night as well… he really is into this group as well. It was a night to remember, 3 generations together enjoying the same music/experience!!! This says a lot about how far their music is appreciated by all ages… 15, 46, 71!! Thanks Pentatonix! You are all loved! ❤❤❤❤❤
Love these artists, so original. Timing was perfect for their success!
Over 10 years later we still Stan Pentatonix ❤️❤️❤️
Pentatonix is one of the best concerts I've ever attended. It was electrifying. Their version of The Prayer is so beautiful it makes me sob every time I hear it. I love this group!
They are an incredible group. I just love the fact that they are each able to carry the entire group.
I remember when I first found Pentatonix back in 2013 and I quickly became completely obsessed with their music. They were the first concert I ever went to. I can't believe they've been together for a decade now.
I really love Matt and love watching and hearing him sing at church!
If you have ever heard them, how can you ever forget? They're that phenomenal.
Incredible that those three talents found each other in the same high school. I wonder if they ever performed for their classmates. Mitches weight fluctuation is a little scary but hope he is well and love his crisp clear voice. Just can't get enough of them when they sing a quality piece for all time like Sound of Silence and Hallelujah.
You are amazing at beginning!!!!!!!! Still keeping this amazing journey!!!!!!! Love ❤ you guys
Love them. Been following them since the sing off. They are awesome.
I’ve enjoyed their videos and look forward to more
I’ve been listening to this group a short while, cover songs and more and love their work. Keep up the great work
They are an excellent sounding group and Have most of their Music. I wish them Much future success..💯🎶🎼💐
Haven't seen anything related to Pentatonix since at least 2016.
Randomly recommended video. Wow crazy how time flies.
Probably since their holiday special dropped on Disney+
From listening to their Carol of the Bells for the first time I haven’t stopped and listen every Christmas time and even sometimes in the summer lol
I bought 3 of their CDs when I was in my late 50's. It had been years since I bought any music. These guys are magical.
They are so good. I am only sorry I didn't discover their music until 2019. I have since recommended them to everyone I know.
Saw pentatonix in December and I have not been to a concert in a while. But I will give them 10 stars and more!! They are AMAZING!! ❤
“He was planning to go to medical school before he joined the group.” Seriously, Kevin? Do you have to be able to do ALL the things?!?
He’s an over-achiever. He’s performed solo at Carnegie twice - once on cello, and another time on tenor saxophone. Now he’s married with 2 kids, and says his dad still encourages him to consider going back to medical school.
I saw them in Brisbane. They sound even better live!
Amazing!
Avi is amazing, his solo album is phenomenal. Songs I can imagine on movie soundtracks.
First time im hearing this group..wow theyre amazing and that woman is beautiful
Beautiful people
Beautiful voices
Beautiful music
Praying u guys don't quit before I leave this world.
Love you style
I was in an a cappella 16 person madrigalian choir in college & it’s one of my favorite memories. This group has an awesome blend!! I hope they tour for a long time…they’re even better in person!!
Love them💖💖💖
I LOVE YOU GUYS. Especially when you guys do Christmas songs.
They are amazing!!
I really appreciate thier originality and courage to persue it .
They're amazing. Thank goodness they kept going on their own!
Gees i hope they will keep at it coz the world has never seen anything like it and we desperately need to see more. please oh please keep doing what you are doing, Pentatonix!!!!
I have been a fan since they began! I purchased sever of their CD’s. Their performance at the National college playoff game sing the National Anthem was outstanding !!!
What a great story! Funny thing is, I just happened to have purchased a Christmas CD of theirs today! Love 'em! ❤️ 😁
Matt, for me, saved PTX making it possible for fans to continue enjoy their music. He has been with them 4 years out of PTX's 10 years of existence. Wish there was longer time for him in this video
LOVE this group !!
GREAT MUSIS! 😎❤💜💚💛💙
Just so you young pups know; I’m 68 years old and found Pentatonix in 2020 and fell head over for these beautiful people whose harmonies and individual talents surpassed my wildest expectations for a group. Love them all and miss Avi but love the groups progression and future prospects. Waiting for a concert in Orlando or any city in Florida sometime soon!!
Ahhh I teared up a lil at the end 🥹♥️ they’re still amazing
Well, Pentatonix's won the heart of my entire family a few years ago, we are all amazed at how talented they are.
Their voices are amazing
The first time I heard them I thought Wow
Awesome....thanks for sharing your talent.
They are FANTASTIC!
Simply put! Pentatonix are 100% AWESOME!!!!
There is a record executive that is really kicking themselves ( if they still have a job) for that decision.
💯 fav group
They did not meet in high school. They grew up together. They have know each other since they were 8
The kids who would become The Trio moved in and out of various children's choirs and theater groups over the years. Scott has talked about first encountering Mitch when they were 10 and both acting in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. But high school was when the three came together and doing things on their own, instead of as part of larger groups under adult direction.
I enjoy their music so much! Great video! Thank you for sharing!
Hello beautiful, how're you doing today.?
Love you guys thanks for Woking so hard I love sing to your music .
Just ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ you guys ...keep making music 👍🎉🎉🎉🎉
I've been a Pentaholic since I saw them on The Sing-Off back when I was a highschooler in 2011. I wasn't really into a cappella, but I've always loved music. I think it was the first or second time I had tuned in to the show and I caught their "Video Killed the Radio Star" performance. For some reason I just knew they were going to win after that performance and wanted to hear everything they did after that, so I was hooked. I even made mixtapes of their Sing-Off performances for my friends, lol. When Avi left I was pretty devastated (I also was going through some personal things) and I stopped keeping track of them for a while after that. I guess I thought it meant the end of the road for them altogether and didn't want to face the change along with the personal things I was dealing with. But I ended up going to another concert of theirs in 2018 with a friend and I feel like it reignited my love for them. Matt is a PERFECT fit, and I'm so happy to be keeping up with them again. I am freakin over the moon with how their latest original album turned out and so excited to see what else they have in store for us!
Thanks so much for this background video, you did them justice! ❤️❤️❤️ would love to see a video covering their work with Matt and their newest original stuff!!!
Hello beautiful, how're you doing today.?
I met my boyfriend because of Pentatonix ! One day I posted a Pentatonix song on my Facebook page..he saw it, liked it and commented that he loved the group... none of my regular friends knew who they were. We started talking that day and have been together ever since. We just had our first anniversary 🥰.
Wonderful info
Loved them from day 1.
Pentatonix the BEST!
I hope that Superfruit (Scott and Mitch's band) graces us with some more music in the future. Their album was phenomenal and so fun!
Hello
They are AMAZING ❤️😁🇨🇦
since I saw them live at the Mohegan Sun Casino about 6 years ago. While I watched them perform what really impressed me was they sounded just as good as their recordings which is very hard to do. They won me over.
Saw them live, it they are amazing!
Finally! This video explained Pentatonix very clearly and to the point. I know of acapella, but I did not know that much about Pentatonix until recently. Their first video that hooked me was Hallelujah. So, thanks for this video.
Halleluiah is my favorie song. And then Mary Did You Know ?
I love...love..love...LOVE this group ❤🙏♥️🙏♥️
Pentatonix live is peak performance quality
Great news story. These kids have become an amazing success.
Love this group been a fan since they started
they are amazing!!!
this is insane, they were literally the biggest things when i was in like middle school
My husband Ronnie & I watched them on the competition show. We loved that all groups were a cappello! It was something new & dfft! & the first time we heard PENTATONIX, we looked at ea other & knew that they were IT! They won, which we weren't surprised by, but were absolutely elated from!!!!
We have tried to keep up w them, altho it became increasingly difficult & then impossible as Ronnie became sicker. He passed away October 17th 2019.....& my life changed forever! But I still look up & give Ronnie a wink when I hear something! "We knew them when..."
So sorry for your loss but so happy for that bond you two had with Pentatonix.
I ❤ this group!
