This video was filmed at “The Wayfarers Chapel” in Rancho Palos Verdes, California. It was designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright, Jr. (son of famed architect Frank, Sr.), and opened in the early 1950’s. It recently closed, indefinitely - about two weeks ago - due to landslides and “significant” land movement in the area. A ‘Go Fund Me’ page has been set up for donations to offset damages.
I was just about to post the location. I'm from Long Beach, about 15 miles SE along the coast, and used to drive through RPV on my way to King's Harbor, Torrance, to catch the bike path up to Venice - at least twice a week. I am saddened to learn of Wayfarer's closure, but am not surprised given SoCal's recent weather, and the crustal fault lines that run throughout Cali, but particularly on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, Portuguese Bend being notorious for multiple closures annually. Mega mega wealthy area, but the earth's innards don't really care about the skin.
There quite a few newer songs with Matt having a verse in or partial lead: You're A Mean One Mr Grinch ( Matt is the lead and it's awesome!), O Holy Night, Kiss From A Rose, Sound of Silence, Prayers for This World.
Great reaction! Kirsty definitely steals the show there. Her solo is insane! Shows off that range. She goes higher like 5 times and nails it! Awesome stuff.
Matt’s been with the group since 2017. You reviewed The Prayer in Aug 2023 which had Matt. Also, live performances have less of chance in getting taken down.
Lol Nick I think you forgot that you've seen Matt before a couple times he was in the very first Pentatonix that you reacted to " Sound of silence" and he was also singing in "the prayer " and "Please santa please".
TX for this. Here you can already hear that Matt has a lot of range. You are one of the few that pick up what Mitch can do with his voice with the " o Mazing Grace" and yes Kirstie shines here. We Pentaholics so love reactions to this amazing group. Greetings from South Africa
Matt Sallee (last name pronounced Suh-LEE). His voice, especially in the lower range, has been improving with time/age. Basses often don't develop fully until 30 or so, and he is the youngest member of the group at this point. He has a different sound than Avi did (choral rather than operatic), but I think his personality and and musical skills fit the group perfectly.
Petatonix dropped 4 new videos at the end of 2023. If u haven't, please react to them. All are outstanding n show how much more they have matured. They are Kissed from a rose O holy night Pure Imagination /Christmas Time is Here And Please, Santa Please, an original written by Kirstin and Kevin
To hear more of Matt and hear him in his element, please listen to “Kiss from a Rose”, and, even though Xmas is past, do “O Holy Night”. Matt is not Avi and vice verse. Matt first appeared in “ The Sound of Silence” cover. And when you start making your Christmas list of songs, please include PTX’s “12 Days of Christmas”. Matt’s playful side really comes out. Avi now has a channel on UA-cam. I can’t remember the name, but you might drop in there to hear him again. Thanks.
Great reaction. Matt was a fantastic replacement for Avi. They are both stupendous in different ways. Avi has that incredible basso profundo deep bass voice, but Matt has an unusually wide range for a bass so can go really high too. Also, personality-wise he fits in so well with the group and this year will have been with PTX for longer than Avi was as he joined when Avi left in 2017. Lots of people miss Avi but I figure we wouldn't habe had Avi's brilliant solo career if he hadn't left PTX and Matt is fantastic and has such a good relationship with the whole band and works brilliantly with Kevin. He particularly stands out for me in their recent Kiss from a rose and 'Oh holy night' covers. He's also great as the lead in 'Mr Grinch' too. When i saw them live last May in London, Matt was so much fun!
Back in 2017 I wasn't really on UA-cam, or any other social media platforms. I watched PTX on the sing off. And while I had seen some of their songs after) I didn't follow the changes they were going through. I first saw them live around Christmas of 2017. I remember thinking at that live show, who is this new guy and where is avi? I found out the answers to both much later. But there is no denying that the show was absolutely amazing with Matt🥰 there is no comparison. But they are both amazing in their own rights. Completely different levels, but equally just as amazing stars❤ If I had to break it down, I would say that Avi is the better talent. But, imo, Matt is the better fit for the group
Nick, you don’t say what kind of music you like in an intro. Assuming (?) you enjoy music vids, I could suggest a fair number in a variety of genres and from many decades (that Spring chicken flew the coop a long time ago). So Spill! (Even though I’m a classically trained musician, I’ve always enjoyed slumming around. 😁) I looked for a general comments area over in your Nick Reacts channel and there wasn’t one in Community-I didn’t want to tack this on to something unrelated so I’ll tack it on to my own message. Three movie recommendations. First, best Romantic movie. Moonstruck. Second, Historical Drama: Gandhi. Third, Fantasy Adventure/Romance: The Princess Bride. These are some of the best of the best.
California continues to adjust to the always changing climate. The NEWS showed the Chappell and all the benches covered to protect what they can. The spokesman said the grounds are a mess with cracks everywhere. Matt and his wife considered it for their wedding but chose another location. They were married in January 2022 with their Pentatonix family there. He announced last month that he is going to be a Daddy. I don't mention their spouces' names, but everything is on UA-cam. Kevin's traditional African wedding includes Matt, Scott, Kirstin, and Mitch.
Great reaction. Anyway, can i request your reaction to superb band from japan? The band is call "Lovebites" They all The Beautiful Queens Metal band right now in the earth. They are really really World class musicians. Phenomenal. And they have a lot die hard fans too. The song is "Judgement day" Hope you check out, and can enjoy it too. Big thanks🙏
Be sure to check out Ptx version of SoundOfSilence , their new member really shines in that one (actually they all do but watch it and see what you think).
He's already done Sound of Silence - it was his first reaction to PTX. He has seen a number of ones with Matt in but I think he filmed this a while ago and it only just got through copyright.
I love hearing Mitch in his lower register. He has such a beautiful voice.
it is a shame how many ptx reactions get taken down, i appreciate the reactors who do their best to keep the videos coming!! :D

Just one example of all the problems California is having due to so much rain recently.

Love the “droning” bagpipe vocal sound effect.
Yes, me too. That was Kirstie and Kevin doing that.
Great reaction! Kirsty definitely steals the show there. Her solo is insane! Shows off that range. She goes higher like 5 times and nails it! Awesome stuff.

Actually, The Prayer was released in autumn 2021.
@@thechomiji I was commenting on when Nick reviewed it, which was last August. I corrected my typo.
Can't wait for Creep! We all miss Avi, but Matt is an exceptional replacement! Matt is so talented and charismatic. He fits well into the group.
Lol Nick I think you forgot that you've seen Matt before a couple times he was in the very first Pentatonix that you reacted to " Sound of silence" and he was also singing in "the prayer " and "Please santa please".
I actually filmed this video a LONG time ago but it never got through copyright
@@Bite-SizeReactions oh I see lol

Beautiful OMG! ❤
When this cover first came out (in 2920) Matt had been with the group for a few years.😊
2920?????? That’s a long time in the future! lol!

Kissed from a rose
O holy night

It's not a sad song for me but I can't help shedding a tear for this one. Because it's freakin beautiful.
Just beautiful.

Recommend their cover of Kiss From A Rose. It has a great Matt vocal.
If you listen to their Sound of silence you can really begin to appreciate Matt.
He did already reacted to that one it was the first one that he reacted to lol He must have forgotten that Matt was in it
OH HOLY NIGHTSHOULD BE YOUR NEXT REACTION VIDIO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAA

the first video with Matt is sound of silence
Wait for it...
Listen to Kuss from a Rose recorded live at VEVO it’s stunning

Wayfarers' Chapel...
Hi I had a question. Do you know who Linkin Park is ? I think you should react to their most popular songs in the end and numb.
Matt Sallee
We want your girlfriend to watch music also
