Pentatonix Catch A Tornado To The Land Of Ahhhs...!

They're "Wide Awake"
That's right, the PTX gang join YouTube sensation Todrick Hall and hitch a ride on a tornado and land in Ahhhs! Not to be confused with the land of Oz, but it certainly is Emerald City adjacent.

Pentatonix journey opens with the sole female group member Kirstie Maldonado as "Dorothy" crooning "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" and then along comes a twister....Hey, the story has not changed, but the way in which it is told is unique and fun!

Kirstie, is front row and center for the bulk of the re-telling of a young girls journey of self. Not only does she play "Dorothy" but being the only female, she also plays "Glinda" and "The Wicked Witch of the West" -  You go Kirstie!

The concept is the brainchild of Todrick Hall (with I am sure input from PTX) - also pays homage to the classic movie, "The Wizard of Oz" and utilizes images of the late great Judy Garland over the final number of the voyage.

So which of the Pentatonix Guys plays "The Scarecrow", "The Tin Woodsman", "The Cowardly Lion" & "Toto" too?

Catch a tornado to Ahhhs and find out!

Pentatonix: The Evolution of Music

Starting in the 1600's with "Beethoven's 5th Symphony" and ending in the 2000's with "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye. Pentatonix's "The Evolution of Music" is a departure from their usual covers and mash ups.

Taking a mere snippet of their song favorites from each decade only whets PTX fans appetites for a full length version of each and every one of these songs through the ages.

My top three I want to see PTX do full covers of? "Beethoven's 5th Symphony", Avi Kaplan front and center singing all of "Old Man River" would be amazing and Kirstie Maldonado giving her spin on the Aretha Franklin classic "Respect" would be off the hook!

Give it a listen, enjoy the vibe and imagine what the full PTX treatment of your favorites in the bunch would sound like...

Better yet, let them know, there are no guarantees, but PTX does pay attention and use fan input, so if you put it out to them and the universe to lay a whole track down Pentatonix style of your pick, the forces of music out there in the great beyond might grant your wish!

Pentatonix + Lindsey Stirling = Radioactive

Pentatonix
What do you get when you add five part Pentatonix and one part Lindsey Stirling? An amazing cover of Imagine Dragons "Radioactive"

PTX and Lindsey are both on a roll artistically and professionally and for fans of both this is a dream pairing.

Lindsey Stirling
Scott Hoying's amazing tenor voice takes center stage for this cover, not to mention beat boxer Kevin "K.O." Olusola hitting the Cello.

It's time to get "Radioactive" with Pentatonix and Lindsey Stirling.

Happy Wednesday ...!
