Matt Sallee is the new kid on the block when it comes to Pentatonix, and now we are getting to learn more about him!
The new bass singer of the a Capella group is dishing on how he got into music, his history with Pentatonix, and the rest of the group even shared thoughts on him.
After Matt didn’t get into his first college choice, he heard about the Berkeley College of Music where he then ended up attending for Vocal Performance.
When he was in high school, he went to an a Capella competition and actually got to see Pentatonix perform from the front row.
“Matt is such a joyous human. I love that so much about him, because I think he brings a life and an energy that is so beautiful to this family,” Kevin Olusola said about Matt. “I think as Pentatonix, we want to exude energy and joy into all of our fans and he fits right in when it comes to that.”

Matt Sallee is the new guy in the much loved a cappella group, Pentatonix, and after only a short time with them, is already feeling at home.
In a new interview, the singer opened up about his audition for the bass role in the group and how it all happened.
The opportunity to try out for Pentatonix came up earlier this year and after auditioning, he got a call back in June. However, after that, he didn’t hear anything until September.
“I landed in Los Angeles on September 15 and recorded two songs the next morning,” he said. “I hit the ground running.”
Matt adds that the group is “the most welcoming people I’ve ever encountered. They were excited for me; they were excited for the group.”
“I’ve dreamed of singing with them for so long,” he says. “For an a cappella nerd like me, they’re the pinnacle of a cappella…I’m very inspired by them, they all are doing different things outside of the group.”
Next up, Matt will be joining Pentatonix on their holiday tour which goes throughout December in select cities. Check out all the dates on JJJ now!
“Guys! So it’s official! I am so honored to be singing with @ptxofficial!!!” Matt reacted on his Instagram timeline.
He adds, “They have been nothing but the most humble and sweet human beings in the world and I’m so blessed and humbled to work with a group of people I have looked up to for such a long time. Dreams do come true people! I’m living proof of it.”
