Since bursting onto the scene in 2011, multi-platinum selling recording artists Pentatonix have sold more than 3.2 million albums in the U.S. alone, won two Grammy Awards, sold out venues worldwide, have amassed over 1.5 billion views on their YouTube channel with over 10.5 million subscribers and appeared in the feature film Pitch Perfect 2. Their latest release, Pentatonix, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 and Current Albums Chart and is certified gold by the RIAA. The first single, "Can't Sleep Love," has over 18 million views on YouTube. The group's holiday album, That's Christmas To Me, is certified double platinum by the RIAA and features their recent 2016 Grammy-winning track, "Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy."

All seven of their releases have peaked within the Top 5 on Billboard's Digital Albums Chart with six of those releases reaching the Top 10 or higher on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart. Most recently, the group received two gold certifications for their "Daft Punk" medley and cover of Imagine Dragons' "Radioactive" ft. Lindsey Stirling. That's Christmas To Me was the fourth best-selling album of 2014. The group released their very first documentary (On My Way Home) which follows the quintet on their sold out 2015 North American Tour featuring behind-the-scenes footage, live performance and the making of their debut studio album, Pentatonix.

Us The Duo have amassed a fan base of over 10 million followers since launching their groundbreaking #6SecondCovers online. After becoming the first artists signed to a major label from Vine, the couple released their 2014 album No Matter Where You Are, appeared on major national TV programs such as Good Morning America and Today, and even joined Oprah Winfrey's "The Life You Want Weekend" tour. Two years later, the duo has just announced their new independent album Just Love, which is out on July 22, and are currently on tour with GRAMMY-winning a cappella group Pentatonix. With the release of Just Love and a summer headlining tour, Us The Duo are hyper focused on two things: their music and their fans.
