Critically acclaimed and dubbed as “an orchestra of human voices” and “masters of showmanship”, these multi-talented brothers sound like a band using only their mouths. These pioneers of a cappella are six of ten Knudsen brothers who have been singing contemporary a cappella with incredible beatbox vocals and harmonizing since they were children, over 40 years in total.
