Pentatonix ‘On My Way Home Tour’ Live in Cebu 2015
8 06, 2015 @ 8:00 pm
Vocal sensations and winners of season 3 of NBC’s The Sing-Off, PENTATONIX, are back after winning Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella for “Daft Punk” at the 57th Grammy Awards. The band sold out three nights at the Marina Bay Sands theatre in 2014 and this time we are ready for Penta-Mania to strike again!
Pentatonix are taking instrument-free music far beyond anyone’s wildest expectations. Named after the world’s most widely recognized five-note music scale, this quintet has transformed one of pop music’s purest and most soulful expressions into an exciting future, filled with limitless sonic possibility.
Pentatonix is comprised of lead vocalists Scott Hoying, Kirstie Maldonado and Mitch Grassi, vocal bass Avi Kaplan and beatboxer Kevin “K.O.” Olusola and, while the individuals would maintain that each of their fellow band members is irreplaceable, the fact remains that 24- hours before their audition for The Sing-Off they still hadn’t all officially met.
Despite drawing from a dizzyingly eclectic set of musical genres – the group cites pop, jazz, r&b, indie, folk, dubstep and electronica as just a few of their inspirations – the quintet seemed to mesh magically, evident in their modern interpretation of The Buggles’ “Video Killed The Radio Star,” or their epic adaptation of Florence and the Machines’ “The Dog Days Are Over.” Before long, Pentatonix had become a legitimate musical force, armed with a collective confidence and swagger that would eventually propel them to win the competition.
In addition to their live shows, the Pentatonix YouTube channel boasts more than 200 million views and 2.7 million subscribers, propelled by unparalleled performances of Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used To Know,” (19 million views) and Lorde’s “Royals,” (15 million) as well as the incomparable “Evolution Of Music,” a 4 minute, 36-song live journey through the history of music that has tallied more than 21 million views and “Daft Punk,” a 7-song medley and the lead track from PTX Vol 2, which has accrued more nearly 20 million views in its first 3 weeks. The group’s cover collaboration with Lindsey Stirling for Imagine Dragons’ “Radioactive” has seen more than 40 million views over the two artists’ channels and was nominated in the “Best Response Video” category at the inaugural YouTube Music Awards. The group also has more than 650,000 Facebook fans and 170,000 Twitter followers.
