New Release Roundup: PTX, BYU Vocal Point, And More

A cappella fans appear to be in store for a fantastic spring, as a slew of new releases started hitting the internet from some of our favorite groups.

Pentatonix

The titans are back. Pentatonix, with new bass Matthew Sallee, put out the first cover from their forthcoming album. "Havana" will be featured on "PTX Presents: Top Pop, Vol. 1," which drops April 13.


BYU Vocal Point & Friends

You can always count on the talent from BYU to come through with a professional video of a fairly recent radio release. This time around the guys from Vocal Point teamed up with the BYU Cougarettes for a fully choreographed and costumed production of a medley of songs from "The Greatest Showman."


Duwende

Fresh off their tour of Japan, the greatest a Michael Jackson-covering a cappella group of all time, Duwende, released another MJ classic, "You Rock My World."


Drums of War

Winner of Best Video by a Professional Group in the 2018 A Cappella Video Awards, Drums of War released an Ed Sheeran mashup this week that includes all of your favorites.


Stiletta

Stiletta, the 2016 Harmony Sweepstakes national champions, released a live video of their performance of "Dangerous Woman" from SingStrong.


Six Appeal

Speaking of former Harmony Sweepstakes champions, 2012 winners Six Appeal released a live video of their "Moondance/Billie Jean" mashup.


And in other special news, The Swingles kicked off a U.S. tour and launched their Patreon, which we’re hoping leads to a lot of great new content. (Let’s be honest, we know it’s going to be fantastic).
