Sam Tsui and Kurt Schneider have become Youtube sensations. Making the homepage numerous times, being on Ellen, Oprah, The Bonnie Hunt show, just to name a few and recieving millions of viewers overnight. Both grew up together in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania in a small suburb outside of Philadelphia. They both lived down the street from one another but did not start becoming really good friends until the end of highschool as they were both involved in the chorus and music scene. Kurt, being a year older than Sam, graduated and went of to Yale and Sam independently made the choice to go off to Yale as well in the following year. Kurt had already began working on some music stuff before Sam arrived and when he did they began collaborating together. Both boys grew up under a large musical influence. Kurt always loved music and he taught himself piano throughout high school and guitar in college. Sam's mom was a high school music teacher, so he grew up in a household with a piano and where the arts were really appeciated. From a young age Sam sang for fun and by high school he decided that he wanted to perform or sing in some way.
Together they have perfromed multiple covers by some of today's most famous artists such as Lady Gaga, Owl City, Britney Spears and many more. Sam and Kurt have even come out with two original songs together, Don't want an Ending and Start again. They are continuing to work on even more original songs together and are continually uploading new videos.
