CD Review: Pentatonix Sings Out that Christmas is Here!

Pentatonix, the nation’s most popular a capella group, recently dropped their new Christmas album for this holiday season. This is their third Christmas album in their careers, with the first two being “That’s Christmas to Me” and “A Pentatonix Christmas,” both record-breaking Christmas albums in their respective year.

Pentatonix include the voices, and only the voices, of Scott Hoying, Kirstin Maldonado, Matt Grassi, Kevin Olusola, and Matt Sallee. Their unique twists on original Christmas classics will get you ready for the winter-wonderland season!

“Christmas is Here!” includes 12 originals and covers. From the ballad of a “Grown-Up Christmas List” featuring Kelly Clarkson to the spooky “Making Christmas” compilation, there is a song that suits every music taste. If you enjoy peaceful, emotional, and contemporary ballads, I recommend “Where are you Christmas” and “Greensleeves.” If you are in an upbeat Christmas mood, “What Christmas Means to Me” and “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” will have you dancing.

What more is there to love about Christmas music! Pentatonix’s modern, a capella flare on timeless classics are a must-hear this holiday season.
