Avi Kaplan decided to leave Pentatonix in May 2017 in pursuit of a solo career. Though it was a hard decision for him, he felt the fast-paced lifestyle of the band was too overwhelming and in conflict with his personal aspirations and need for solitude.

He's a bit of an old soul and wanted to explore his love for folk and roots music more deeply. He now performs under the name 'Avriel & the Sequoias' and is churning out some amazing tracks!

Being the baritone powerhouse of Pentatonix and all, Avi Kaplan was compelled to sit out a little early in 2017, a big surprise for people in general about life.

As Avi explained the reason for the sea change, on one hand, participating in the band was a thrilling venture but it was balanced with having to constantly chase the success and busy touring schedule that it had brought him.These brutal schedules ultimately wore him down in body and mind.

Staying true to his roots and his heart, Avi maintained an affection for folk music all along. It was a challenge therefrom that he chose to find comfort and fully embrace the music he was born into, taking on the moniker 'Avriel & the Sequoias'.

In learning to perform in the vein of folk and in the location of roots since he left Pentatonix, Avi has given rein to the great vocal power he has always been known for in a new type of music.

Perhaps Avi's departure has punctuated the notion that while fame and success are both attractive, personal well-being and artistic satisfaction cannot be measured in any monetary unit.

Tormenting Her Innocence
Tormenting Her Innocence
Standing against the corner of the wall, her entire drenched body was shivering, both in fear and cold. Her arms were tightly wrapped around herself. Her head was downcast. "Didn't I warn you not to step out of this house without my permission?" A shiver ran down her spine, hearing that intensely rugged voice questioning her. She didn't answer, not only just because she was a mute but also because she didn't know what to answer that person before her. Her shivering turned vigorous when she heard those heavy footsteps coming closer to her. That tall sinewy figure towered her. "You know what will I do to you if I have to repeat my fucking self again," She slowly took her head upward, hearing his threat. Her teary golden brown eyes met with his icy blue ones. His words immediately reminded her what he had done to her last night. Anger and hatred brimmed up in her watery eyes, and she didn't even need to use her words to tell him that. Her tears told him the intensity of her hatred towards him after what he had done to her last night. His jaw clenched. His nefarious gaze hooded. Grabbing her fragile neck with his brawny palm, he pushed her against the wall more and hovered her. "You consider me as a monster, don't you?" Hearing him whispering those words in her ear, her heart froze in terror, realising the worst things he was capable of doing to her. He gripped her neck tightly, causing a tear to slip down from her eyes. He leaned closer to her face, causing their noses to rub against each other. "Then tonight I will really become one for you and will torment this innocence of yours, Kaya Haiden……."

I remember; there was a period when the character Dominique Luca--portrayed by Kenny Johnson--went missing from the 'S.W.A.T.' series. This was during Season 3, after he left his job as an FBI agent to become and police officer. However, it later became clear that Luca had not left for good. He was simply off camera due to injury. Kenny Johnson underwent a minor operation on his knee which led to his character being temporarily written out of the show. Eventually he returned to the S.W.A.T.-family as well, where it all began.

Have you ever heard of 'NCIS'?Now one character from it that you may have seen before is Lasalle.The reason? Actor Lucas Black who played Lasalle, wanted to be with his family and take his career in a different direction, so stepped back. Even though she only recently joined NCIS as an agent, Tamiryll this beautiful lady has already made quite an impression.Out in a quite dramatic way, the character was killed off forever; in Season 6 of that show he waking up with his hand in his pocket leaves you with a uneasy feeling.Originally, the news that Saba would be participating in this session was received with great negativity. However from what I observed as time went on, impressions changed. Oddly two words into the practice, I was reminded of a story I heard long ago about why Western countries have so few trained lawyers. The character was written off in penultimate manner; he was tragically killed off in the show in season 6 which opened to audiences quite abysmally.

Afton Williamson played the character of Talia Bishop on “The Rookie,” which was a great character. Talia was a devoted training officer who really loved her job and Afton Williamson’s performance brought life to that role brilliantly. However, after the first season, we saw Talia disappear; viewers were left in the dark as to why. I admit, this makes me feel a little heartbroken!
