The Washington State Fair closes this year with up and coming pop a capella group Pentatonix!

With the amazing national exposure of winning NBC’s Season Three of “The Sing Off,” Pentatonix’s popularity has seen highs beyond their wildest dreams. This pop a capella quintet has developed a sound and style that has sold out concert venues throughout the US and Europe.
 
Pentatonix is comprised of lead vocalists Scott Hoying (22), Kirstie Maldonado (21) and Mitch Grassi (21), vocal bass Avi Kaplan (24) and beatboxer Kevin “K.O.” Olusola (25) 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.

After “The Sing Off,” Pentatonix relocated to Los Angeles where they produced and released 2 EP’s – PTX Vol 1 & PTXmas, each time debuting on Billboard’s Top 200 and selling more than 125,000 albums. They have twice toured North America, regularly selling out venues that include New York City’s Best Buy Theater and San Francisco’s Warfield Theater and their first ever European Tour sold out in its entirety.  

The Fair opens on Friday September 5th.  Learn more about the Fair and the Concert Series at www.thefair.com.
