Former Members

Avi Kaplan

Avriel Benjamin Kaplan (born April 17, 1989 (1989-04-17) [age 34]) grew up in Visalia, California. Before becoming a member of Pentatonix, he attended Mt. San Antonio College, where he joined an all-male acapella group called "Fermata Nowhere". He played the vocal bass, bass lead and did backing vocals before he left the group in 2017. The reasoning behind his departure were mainly conisisting of two things, wanting to persue some music of his own that wouldn’t fit into Pentatonix, and more importantly, wanting to be around his family more often, since the frantic pace of life he had to live being in the group was tiring and made it hard for him to see his friends and family when he needed to. The group continue to support him for this decision, as it is what's best for him.
