Words matter. These are the best Avi Kaplan Quotes, and they’re great for sharing with your friends.
That’s really always been the music that I’ve been in love with, always the music that I’ve written growing up. Even through Pentatonix, folk music has been really my heart and soul.
We didn’t want to just be a cover group, we wanted to do our music, to be a band. Once we were able to do it, it was a little scary, but it was also something inspiring – something new, fresh for us to get into. It was amazing to see the reaction of our fans.
For all the different videos that we got to dress up in, I love fantasy stuff, so for ‘Radioactive,’ I felt like I was a warrior, and for ‘Daft Punk,’ I felt like I was a space warrior.
Signing with Fantasy is an absolute dream come true. It’s such a blessing to work with a label that truly cares about the soul of the music and to be on the same roster as artists that I’ve looked up to for as long as I can remember.
I get on my porch with my guitar, look at my trees, and write a song.
I knew I wanted to do music, but leaving such a successful career one would think I’d kind of shot myself in the foot. I knew I made the right decision, and at the end of the day it’s up to me to get where I want to go, but it’s a lot to take on.
I don’t really think there’s a genre that we couldn’t do, but it wouldn’t sound like that genre, if that makes sense. I think we could take any song, but it would sound like us. If you’re doing a country song, it could maybe sound a little bit country, but it’s going to sound like Pentatonix.
We know how to convey exactly what we want to convey. We know how it makes us feel and we know exactly how to show our fans how to feel the same way.
Folk music is very honest, it’s very humble, it’s very organic, and the voice is exactly that. And so I’m very excited to put the two together.
Obviously when you write songs you’ve got to record them, but just writing the songs is one of my favorite things to do.
Being in Pentatonix, we basically toured year round, so it was tough to just get a break.
I feel like we’re always going to be the underdog, but we like that. It’s a really cool thing and it inspires us. It pushes us.
It’s really important for me that the people who listen to my music get something that can hopefully help them get through whatever they’re going through. Music is the only thing that’s able to help sooth my soul in that way, and my goal is to always put things out there that that do the same thing for other people.
I always loved touring in Pentatonix; really the only reason it was tough was the pace and no breaks.
We were the choir nerds.
I feel like people have been so used to listening to choirs during Christmas, so they love voices when it comes to Christmas, and that is exactly what we are.
I think it would be awesome for us to do collaborations and to try to gel with the mainstream.
