This beautiful combination of people is Pentatonix. Left to right are Avi Kaplan, Kirstie Maldonado, Scott Hoying, Mitch Grassi, and Kevin Olusola.Obsessed fans (like me) are named Pentaholics and here's why EVERYONE should be one!
1. Scott's riffs and piano skills are as smooth as your favorite chocolate.
So smoooooooooooooth.
2. Mitch can hit higher notes than physically possible for most and he can RAP. If that's not perfection, I don't know what is.
I mean the fact that he makes a perfect Elsa and Elphaba should be enough.
3. Kirstie is just the most adorable thing ever.
She should totally be Dorothy in some remake of Wizard of Oz, just saying.
4. Avi can do this freakishly weird, yet amazing, thing called overtone singing. It's where you can sing two notes at the SAME time! I can't even sing one note properly.
How.
5. Speaking of doing things at the same time, Kevin can beatbox & play the cello!
Are you not in love yet?
6. They take songs that you already love and make covers that you will never forget!
Can't tell me this isn't stuck in your head now.
7. They are the biggest example of #friendshipgoals that I can think of.
#squadgoals
8. They fully met for the first time the night before their performance on "The Sing Off" and still were the winners of Season three!
Talk about being meant to be.
9. Did I mention how adorably matched they were when they played a Canadian group in "Pitch Perfect 2"?
10. If you still don't want to be a Pentaholic (which, I will never comprehend), here's their newest album. Oh and it's comprised of covers AND original songs (yep, they do that, too).
love, #pentaholicseverywhere
