The boys are nuts aren’t they? Love them. That guy in the cowboy hat is Chris Rupp, Adam’s brother and founder of Home Free. He’s a tremendous singer and left Home Free in 2016 to go solo. He has his own channel. Adam Chance joined Home Free in place of Chris. Loved the mashup. They have a few of them. Funny ones - Country Fried Pop Medley, Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget, Workin for a Livin. They’re so good. Loved your reaction Chris.
Actually they did that on purpose. I was told they said they didn't want to "use" the ladies in the video. The wives, girlfriends, friends and family members as objects, so they decided to do the rear-veal of their own backsides.
You want to see how high Tim can go (the basso profundo singer who started the song) react to their cover of Mayday by CAM. That song was made shortly after Chance joined. Prior to him joining the group was 3 tenors, a beatboxer (also a tenor if it matters) and a bass. He couldn't show his 5 octaves chops very often because there was no one but himself to hold the bass line. Chance, who can sing almost as low as Tim joining freed him up considerably. Their cover of Mayday was basically to show off what he could do when someone else had the bass line.
That's Chris Rupp, the beatboxer Adam Rupp's older brother and they together formed Home Free when they were in college together. Chris Rupp since leaving Home Free in 2016 has done many things, including forming a group including their sister Tristen Rupp (also a singer) called 7th Ave, and now also sings in a trio called Cypress Fyre, and has done a bunch of originals, covers, and collabs. (Including a couple of covers with Tim Foust) in his own solo career. A very talented man.
Great reaction. This was so much fun. Not all the sounds were made by Adam Rupp. When Austin Brown was running his finger across his teeth, he was making that high kind of humming sound. Tim was filling in for the drums while Adam was doing the DJ thing making record sounds, so Tim was beatboxing next to Rob, and spitting on him, which is why Rob has his hands up. Chris Rupp has a great video about the making of the Butts Remix video that explains a lot of this.
Chris, has anyone ever told you that you are majorly adorbs? You are! I love your reactions and they are so spot-on and full of info. I have learned so much from them. Thank you!
When I first watched this I was in stitches. I had watched their version of How Great Thou Art so many times.....which is a masterpiece. And then this!!!😂😂😂 It's so hilarious and complicated vocally.
I'm so proud of you figuring that that was Adam's brother, his name is Chris Rupp. This is definitely a fun medley to watch. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.
that's the great thing about Voiceplay, Home Free and Voctave. they take their music seriously, but don't forget to have fun along the way. their funny videos are hilarious, but it never comes at the cost of the music quality.
I like that side eye glance that Tim gives Austin when he's down on the floor rolling around. Makes me laugh every time. Also Tim's seems to be eating something in a lot of their videos. Rose petals in one. 🥺 Love your reaction. I knew you would enjoy this.
That was a fun one. Another fun one is All About That Bass. But you should see the outtakes video back to back with the official video. The two together are so funny. Thanks for your reaction
What did you think of Rob's friend Beugs (hot pants overalls)? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Another fun video is their homage to The Big Lewbowski "This Is Ho We Roll". It's worth watching just to see Austin in a purple jumpsuit rapping and Tim in clear jelly crocs!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That is Chris Rupp, who left to pursue a solo career in May 2016 and was replaces by (Adam) Chance (Ray) who just goes by Chance (his middle name) to avoid confusion with Adam Rupp the beatboxer.
Great, fun reaction, they had so much fun with this one. When you listen again, check out Rob's whistling at the beginning. A virtuoso whistler. Be sure to check out their older videos as well, (their cover of It's All About the Bass, pure fun [watch Meagan Trainor's video first so you can catch all of the references in Home Free's]), there are some real gems from the very beginning of their TH-cam catalog, including the Songs they sung on the Sing-Off. Their original version of Ring of Fire they sung on the show is amazing, as well as their own later released version with Avi Kaplan from PTX (Pentatonix) and make sure you stay for the judges comments. Between Home Free, Voctave, Voice Play, Pentatonix, and all of their solo and outside projects, there has to be days worth of listening pleasure.
The guy you didn't know was Chris Rupp. He is Adam's brother (the beatboxer). They are founding members of the group. He has since left and Adam Chance took his place.
Heard them do this maybe a hundred times now! Never get tired of it ever! Glad you had fun too. A different type/style for them is Blue Ain't Your Color (Keith Urban cover) that they took on a do-wop style and even doe awesome choreo. It's one of my favorites! I think you'll love it too. Did you do Country Roads Take Me Home? How about Hillbilly Bone -- great bass solo and the guys are having a blast together. I was just relistening to Workin' for a Livin'! Awesome and fun as they can always be! Take care.
Your reaction was great! This is such a fun mashup of songs. Very cleverly done from one song to another. The talent these guys have is phenomenal. They have so much fun but the vocals never suffer. And Adam's beatboxing is on another level.
You have just earned another subscriber! You are so much fun! An interesting fact: From what I understand, the women shown in this video are family and friends of the group, and out of complete respect, did not want to ask them to shake their assets in their video. Thus, they made themselves the focus of the video had a lot of fun doing so. They are, amongst other things, southern gentleman who love and respect the women in their lives. They don’t take themselves so seriously as to go against the things they believe in. I found that vey interesting! Great reaction! I can’t wait to see more!
You gotta watch Chris Rupps "making of" this video. Chris was the founder of the group with Adam. Chris does beautiful music on his own. Extremely talented he is.
Should watch Austin’s,Tim’s and friends version of “My Maria” and be prepared for a surprise. Also you should watch one of Adam Rupp’s “Drum solos” to see just how talented he is.
There are a lot of recent, like in the past month, drum solos posted and they are mind-blowing. He has always been impressive, but he's diversified so much over the pandemic. Definitely find one from November 2021.
As I understand it, Adam Rupp has won international beat boxing championships. While HF styles itself as a C/W a capella group, they won me over during their competition on the NBC series "The Sing Off" backing judge Jewel who was singing a very modern-jazz inspired redition of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" with complex chords and syncopation, proving that they could do much more than twang about losing their girlfriend and a dead cow. Thier humor came out in the first video I saw of them, doing a cover of "All About That Bass". They have continued to wow me ever since.
Eric "Bueggs" is one of Rob's best friends. His short overalls is a reference to Maddie & Tae's video called "Girl in a Country Song". Check it out--makes Bueggs antics here even funnier 🤣
This is a fun song and happy you reacted to it. The guys are amazing and showed the ladies respect by doing most of the butt shaking. LOL Another you might like is...Austin, Tim doing My Maria on Austin's channel.
Yes. At 3:45, that's Chris Rupp, the actual Founder of Home Free (~2000). He has a wide vocal range and was (among other duties) the backup bass. He left the group a few years ago and was replaced by Adam Chance. He has a YT channel called Chris Rupp Official where he does solos and occasional duets (Tim Foust has dropped by a couple of times), and another called 7th Ave Band where he performs with his sister Tristin and various guest artists. Just to demonstrate his range... th-cam.com/video/28CbkkRblk8/w-d-xo.html
You are just starting with the acappella community. I recommend that you react to Homefree's Ring of Fire ft Avi Kaplan. That way you won't get confused when you go into Pentatonix history and find Avi there for everything. Avi is a natural bass just like Tim but about 10 years younger. Meanwhile Avi is now a singer-songwriter under his own name's TH-cam channel, Avi Kaplan and he is premiering a new song today. "First Place I Go" video premieres this Friday at Noon CST with a live redirect stream on TH-cam 15 minutes before the premiere.
One of their mashups I don't see on your playlist is the Country Fried Pop Medley. It is SO good. You really should react to it if you haven't heard it yet.
@Creativity With Chris -- simultaneous quodlibet. dovetailing. foreshadowing. counterpoint. a truly masterclass mashup. Black hat (who that guy) ... Chris Rupp, the original founder of Home Free and, yes, Adam's brother.
Did you notice TIm eating that "ham sammitch" in the background? LOL If you want a hilarious look at what they're really like watch a fan video from a concert called "Milk Bone." And until you know all of them pretty well DON'T watch Mayday. They call Adam the Freak of Nature for beatboxing because he's won two championships, There's a video of his drum solo that will blow your mind.
Chris Rupp is Adam's brother, they started the group together. This one is SO much FUN 😊😊😊 Once you see Tim eating the ham sandwich in the background, you find yourself looking for it every time, lol
You have checked into Home Free and Pentatonix, now it's time to finish the triumvirate off with Voice Play. I would suggest Hoist The Colors, but The Little Mermaid medley or Oogie Boogie are good to start that rabbit hole off with too.
For fun, definitely check out All About that Bass. I love their collab with the Oak Ridge Boys on Elvira. Mayday will surprise you. Misty Mountains and Ring off Fire both feature Tim’s supreme bass.
Home Free kills it again!! I subscribed. I humbly suggest you react to the only vocal prodigy I know of. Angelina won Norway's Got Talent at age 8 covering Billie Holiday. Angelina is 15 now and signed last year with Republic Records as their highest priority new artist but her family requested she be allowed as normal a childhood as possible. Her most popular performance is her genius arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody which the surviving members of Queen loved so much, they posted on it on their Twitter. I greatly look forward to your first reaction to a true music prodigy but the only one specializing in vocals.
Love your genuine reactions! Would love to see you react to Voiceplay and also Geoff Castellucci on his solo stuff. In particular Voiceplay with Hoist the colours and My mother told me. And Geoff with Misty mountains and Monster mash ✌️
Please do their song "All About That Bass".....and right after, plz do the outakes for that song.....i promise you will laugh big time !!!......you could put them together in one video if you want for continuity.
Home Free has so much fun in their videos. Pentatonix, except in Wizard of Ahhhs, takes itself too serious. Luv PTX but they need to enjoy themselves more. Let the hating begin.

Not complaining that the only "Butts" we see are HFs!!!

This is always funny, and I can't unsee Tim with the ham "sammich ".
I always wait to see if the reactors will notice it the first time through. 🤣
@@angwatts None of the reactors AFAIK has noticed Tim headbanging at the beginning of "Fat Bottomed Girls."

It was soooooo good! Definitely a “reaction” video…I was too stunned to teach haha
I'm so proud of you figuring that that was Adam's brother, his name is Chris Rupp. This is definitely a fun medley to watch. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.
Thanks for watching! Im glad you enjoyed :)

This is one of my favorites. Please pay close attention for the line ham sandwich and Tim in the background.
I've lost count of how many times I've watched that and there is so much going on that I still hear or see something new every time.
I like that side eye glance that Tim gives Austin when he's down on the floor rolling around. Makes me laugh every time. Also Tim's seems to be eating something in a lot of their videos. Rose petals in one. 🥺 Love your reaction. I knew you would enjoy this.

You need to watch Austin Browns channel with Tim, Austin and friends singing My Maria......
Already on it! It was amazing! Got it waiting to be edited ;)
You should check Adam's drum solo. And Woman, amen /Female 😊
That was a fun one. Another fun one is All About That Bass. But you should see the outtakes video back to back with the official video. The two together are so funny. Thanks for your reaction
Thanks for watching!
This is a great and funny medley. They sure know how to have a good time.
What did you think of Rob's friend Beugs (hot pants overalls)? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Another fun video is their homage to The Big Lewbowski "This Is Ho We Roll". It's worth watching just to see Austin in a purple jumpsuit rapping and Tim in clear jelly crocs!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s what got my “God bless America” comment 😂
I love "This is How We Roll" so much. No group can ever be as much fun as Home Free!!
So many reactors miss Austin's sound effect with his finger between his lips. I'm glad you caught it.
Yes, cowboy hat is Chris Rupp. For more humor check out their Country Fried Pop
Shot the same day as Butts remix. Also that Lets get it on video
@@PrinceJediMaster I don't see it on the playlist or videos tab
@@kellywilliams364 in meant the videos were all shot the same day. As they had the studio for a while.
You be blessed , ✌️ Peace
That is Chris Rupp, who left to pursue a solo career in May 2016 and was replaces by (Adam) Chance (Ray) who just goes by Chance (his middle name) to avoid confusion with Adam Rupp the beatboxer.
Oh lord that comment " god bless America" I'm crying.

This is the one….if you’re in a crappy mood….go watch this one…..&, it’ll blow that bad mood away ‼️💥
“That was some Lit beatboxing!” For even ?Lit’er? beatboxing, react to their Live version of “9 to 5 “ + beatboxing breakdown!!!!
They just have too much fun.
Great reaction they are just amazing this group
Thanks for another great reaction
You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoy :)

This song, video was Chris Rupp's idea. He did a reaction video of his own to it. He is also very talented.
Love these guys!
This is funny and so is It's All About That Bass, and Champagne Taste ( On A Beer Budget )
That was Chris Rupp who organized the original group and was responsible for their arrangements. And yes Adams brother.

Tim was actually trained as a Tenor and his Bass range didn’t mature until he was a bit older.
Oh wow! Interesting info!
Check out Home Free's Drum Solo. Adam is a 2 time Beat boxing champion.
Hey have you introduced your voice students to this group? What a great group for anyone to follow and learn from.
During Baby got back Tim gearboxes and Chris does Bass. That way Adam can scratch.
For fun, definitely check out All About that Bass. I love their collab with the Oak Ridge Boys on Elvira. Mayday will surprise you. Misty Mountains and Ring off Fire both feature Tim’s supreme bass.
Good job!
