### **History**

At first the Puptatonix wasn't together, it was brought together by Marshall, Rubble, Chase, Rocky, Zuma, and Ryder, by them discovering their singing talents and skills. As the group begun to form and strengthen, the group of girl pups begun to do singing shows around the area of Adventure Bay, and as the group got famous from around the area, groups, news papers, and even radio crews has discovered their talents and famous grew even more for them. They started doing concerts outside of Adventure Bay and even in the United States, and doing tours. Soon in the year of 2010, they got to meet *Fifth Harmony* and do a performance with them.

In 2013 The group was able to go to the auditions for The Sing-Off and during the morning of March 13th, the 2 girls Rosey and Kasey had to skip doing an emergency to make it. They made it onto the show and eventually went on to win the show in November 2015.

The group says they're influenced by many styles of music such as pop, dub-step, electro and hip-hop. But individually they all have very different styles of music they enjoy which they say helps when it comes to arrangements.
