ICYDK. The t-shirt Austin was wearing and signed by the Oak Ridge Boys was bought by 12-year old Austin at an Oak Ridge Boys concert. Now he wears it to sing Elvira with them.
Your timing to upload your reaction to this video coincides with breaking news today that Joe Bonsall, the lead tenor of the Oaks has announced his retirement from touring after 50 years with them. He is suffering from a neuromuscular disease that make it difficult for him to walk. He is the youngest of the group at 75. Duane and Richard are both 80 this year, and William, with the long white beard turns 84.
YES please react to home free they are awesome n in my opinion the best
After all these years of entertaining the world, they've more than earned and deserve their retirement.
The singer of the Oak Ridge Boys, Joe Bonsall, who sang tenor, just announced his retirement today due to a neuromuscular disorder that he has been battling for over 4 years. Such a sad day for The Oak Ridge Boys.
SO much fun! The two groups really like each other. They did another song together at Christmastime. Elvira was a big hit for the Oaks in the 80’s. (Just so you know, Man of Constant Sorrow is really old, it’s not from the movie). I love the movie but the song is about 100 years old and there are many covers. Home Free did a medley of sea shanties during Covid and it went viral. It attracted Ubisoft the game maker to Home Free and they asked HF to write a shanty for their new game called Skull and Bones. Check that shanty out….it’s great. There’s a short live video for the Ubisoft crowd and a lyric video for it. It’s a banger!!! Also when HF does a live concert, Tim, the bass goes really low for it. He has lots of fun with the audience. Good reaction you two. Hope you had a great holiday!🥰
Oak Ridge Boys are OLD SCHOOL and older folk ..... these youngins HOME FREE are incredible harmony singing vocal group !!!
This is a great collaboration between Home Free & The Oak Ridge Boys. "Elvira" was a huge hit for The Oakridge Boys in 1981. You can see the great respect these 2 groups have for each other. The Oakridge Boys are mentors to Home Free & it is like they are passing the baton to a younger version of themselves. They have performed together on the Grand Ole Opry. Adam Rupp's vocal percussion is the best in the business. He can simulate drums & any other sounds perfectly. Home Free is my favorite a cappella group. They are so talented yet very humble guys.
They need to go watch Adam Rupp’s dumb solo live and it will probably answer his question on if they are treating it as separate recordings or if it’s Rupp doing that all on his own.
Adam ( beatboxer) does a 10- 13 min drum/ beatbox solo during every concert maybe you would like to check that out start with an older one 2015 then a newer one where he uses a looper to create his own song.
That song at the end was Honey I’m Good.
If you want to hear their sea shanties
Sea Shanty Medley ( video and Live )
Skull And Bones it is an original written by Chance. They were commissioned to write a sea shanty by Ubisoft for their upcoming game Skull And Bones.
It is amazing 😊
The joy on Ash's face as she was watching the video made it so much fun.
These 2 bands love each other and I love it 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I agree on the Beat boxers layering however you should catch Adam Rupp of Home Free on a live performance and a drum solo.
You will love " Skull and Bones " !!!!!
If you want to see Home Free being "choreographed", and dress-y, check out their cover to Blue Ain't Your Color. A couple of other fun songs are 9-5 (a Dolly Parton original) and Never Gonna Give You Up. And Sea Shanty Medley. And The Butts Medley. AND Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer. Heck...just do all of their songs. We won't mind. Lol
Pretty Woman or Crazy would be a good ones too…..
The sea shanty medley is a group of pirate songs put together by Adam Chance because he loves sea shanty's. Now that said, because of that video the gaming company UbiSoft wanted Home Free to do backing vocals (or score) for UbiSoft's upcoming game called "Skull And Bones." Since Chance loves sea shanty's he wrote the score with the same name. It would be worth so much to do the (live score) and then the (lyric video) to see the finished product that will go into the game.
You have so much fun, laughter, romantic and tender moments, and tears in your future. All courtesy of Home Free.
I love her huge smile while watching Home Free. She truly enjoys them. Definitely take her to see them live when they come to your area. Neither of you will regret it. Anyway, Happy New Year and keep doing what you're doing. I'm here for it.
Honey I’m Good should definitely be next but let me give you a Home Fries Blue’s Clue … keep in mind while watching it that it’s done in a Groundhog Day format & y’all will understand it better & enjoy it even more. Now get on it, we’re waiting !!
P.S. - Since you do know the song, I expect you to sing along with the boys.
Well done, folks! Feel better! Love from Pennsylvania!
When the Oak Ridge Boys announced their retirement from touring the other day, Home Free shared how much they meant to them. ORB was one of the first major groups to give their stamp of approval to HF by letting them cover one of their biggest hits here. They then upped the ante by singing it with them in this video which went viral, and ORB even had HF co-headline a show together. So yeah, this video broke new ground for HF and really put them on the map.
Hi guys. 2 of the best vocal groups ever. So funny to see Austin fan boying over the Oaks. Dave you are right about how most vocal group beatboxers put down tracks and play it over their live performances. However, while Adam has started adding more electronics this is a clip from a live show. In it you see Adam doing a live drum solo and a couple more effects just for fun. They do this in most of their live shows. The other guys leave the stage and Adam takes over. This is just a small part of what he can do. Enjoy!! th-cam.com/video/EanKWLUaDpg/w-d-xo.html
Chris Rupp said that they had their wives and girlfriends plus the crew join in on the Elvira's to give it more volume. And that Austin got that shirt at a concert when he was a kid.😊
This is so very awesome. You can see the comradery between the 2 groups. They blend so well together! Love your reaction!
Love you two and all your reactions and when you react to a Home Free video you really get my attention. Home Free is hands down the best acapella group there is!
From West Virginia, keep up the great reactions and keep lovin each other 😊
Love the mix of these two awesome groups.
This might be my favorite song of them. Besides the Butts and Sea Shanty Medleys. Both of which Ash will very certainly like a lot. I really like that Home Free are featuring a few of the original artists in their covers. Their version of American Pie is also very good.
The medleys from Voiceplay are very good, also. Especially the Wicked Medley. The Disney ones are fun, too.
And I'll reiterate my suggestion for Ayreon - The Day That The World Breaks Down (th-cam.com/video/oFuMKdrzPqU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ULq39kHfmaTRtzjp)
It is good music with a few very good singers and I think both of you will enjoy at least parts of it and have quite a bit to talk about. It is a longer one, but wont get boring. That much I can promise. ;-)
This really gives me the sense of "Home Free Past" meeting "Oak Ridge Boys future".
The ORB's bass, Richard Sterban, sang bass for Elvis Presley early in his career. Home Free definitely collaborated with true country legends on this song--and I LOVE this collaboration❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️
#HomeFree #OakRidgeBoys
Can't get any better than Home Free and the Oakridge Boys. Love this song.💞💞💞
Subbing for more Home Free. I enjoyed your reaction. Home Free is a deep rabbit hole to explore, with 180+ songs. Definitely react to Sea Shanty Medley, the official video or the live version, or both. The official video was recorded during covid in their separate homes, highlighting their ability to be goofy and fun. (But the vocals never suffer.) The live version will give you a feel for their live concerts. Both are excellent. Then there's an original shanty Skull And Bones, both a lyric version and a shorter live version. Many reactors will do a double reaction of both versions. Honey I'm Good is a good one, too. Well... any HF video is good!
The singing, beatboxing & combined harmonies are outstanding! they have another collaboration on "Beautiful Star of Bethlehem" that's breathtaking. The obvious affection and respect between the two groups is just heart-warming. "Man of Constant Sorrow" was first published in 1913 and later covered by Bob Dylan, Joan Baez and a host of others. Thanks for playing this & your comments.
Try the Sea Shanty! OR Helplessly Hoping OR Brothers in Arms! You'll love them.
You are not initially correct about the beatboxer mix. Adam Rupp, of Home Free, has a video of a live performance that shows his special talent live and shows you how talented he really is. You will not be disappointed!
Dave & Ash, so glad you are enjoying my favorite band !!!! Please react to their version of "Colder Weather", also the LIVE VERSION of the Sea Shanty Medley is also particularly great and you can see them in action at a concert !
As you where pointing out, the three bigger (or more popular) accapella groups right now are Pentatonix - classic stylized modern vibes. Homefree - southern country fun vibes. And Voiceplay - Drama theatre style with a bit of character voices.
All three are amazing and very different ❤
He does this song live in concert and he sounds just as amazing. Yes, they do break up the percussion, like they do the singing when being produced. In fact Adam, the beatboxer, does his own editing. He has spent weeks practicing just one sound until it sounds like an actual drum kit. He learned to play the drums many years ago so he could be more accurate. He also does your typical beatbox stuff like scratching etc, along with percussion & instrument sounds. Many people believe he's the best beatboxer in a cappella, and I would have to agree.
I love this version! I grew up listening to this song with my dad. He also sang in a quartet 😊 That was my first introduction to 4-part harmony.
YES….MORE Home Free💗🔥💗‼️💥…..thank you 💗💥💗
&…..a HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU 2 💥💥🥂💥💥‼️
Great Reaction, Love #HomeFree
Absolutely do the Sea Shanty medley. Then do the song skull and Bones for the Ubisoft Pirate game. Phenomenal!
Home Free's cover of Folsom Prison Blues is very good. The original song is by Johnny Cash.
Cant wait to see ya all do more from Home Free. The beatbox in this group is Adam Rupp and after seeing them live I can tell ya they dont have to mess with his stuff in the studio, if at all. Recommend "listen to the music!" Think ya both will enjoy it! 🤙
Y'all need to react to "Man of Constant Sorrow", Home Free's version is sooooo good!
Delightful reaction! Love seeing how much you vibe with Home Free. New subscriber.
You should react to one of Adam Rupp's solos that is filmed on one of Home Free's live performances. He's fantastic.
What l enjoy is seeing how much the Oakridge Boys are interacting and having fun with Home Free. You can see the respect these different generations have for each other. And the singing is beautiful and fun.
Everyone seems to talk about just Home Free and Pentatonix, but there are 2 other a cappella groups that Home Free works with that are just as fantastic. Home Free and VoicePlay have worked together on a lot of songs; arranging, writing, and appearing together. Tim helped their bass, Geoff Catastellucci to get his voice down to where it is. Check out VoicePlay vs Home Free Zombies vs Hillbillies Survivor. Tim Foust, Home Free's bass was invited to join The Bass Gang for their video Hooked On a Feeling. That group is four guys, all bass singers, from 2 different US states, Europe, and the Middle East. My other favorites of theirs are Arabian Nights, the sea shanty Jolly Sailor Bold, and Gaston from 91's Beauty and the Beast. Another a cappella singer that has done videos with Home Free is Peter Hollens. The man has a beautiful voice!. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For by Hollens and HF is one amazing number.
Glad you guys are reacting to this! The OB’s reaction was kind of lackluster to me - they just didn’t really get it - and this is a big deal because of how much Home Free is influenced by Oak Ridge Boys, and their mutual respect for each other. This is a big deal.
Loving your #HomeFree reactions Dave & Ash!! Please keep them coming and you will discover they never disappoint! A group of guys who love what they do and support each other while paying homage to legends and helping encourage other young acts - they share the spotlight so well in every collaboration they do. You’ll see what I mean when you check out:
American Pie feat. Don McLean - done separately during Covid for the song’s 50th anniversary
God ables the USA feat. Lee Greenwood and the USaF Singing Sergeants - also done separately during Covid
Meant to Be feat. Lisa Cimorelli is a fun one
The Horses feat. Travis Collin’s and Amy Sheppard - done in Australia Spring of 2023
Delta Dawn feat. Brooke Eden
Givin’ Up Givin’ Up On You feat. Texas Hill - an original they co-wrote together
Dreamer LIVE at the Ryman feat. Texas Hill - with a fun intro of everyone by Tim mid-song (there are 3 versions of this song, but IMHO this one is the best as it’s live)
One Voice feat. Billy Gilman - have tissues handy and play until the end
Don’t Laugh At Me feat Mark Wills (and his daughter who joins in at the end) - again tissue may be needed and watch to the end
Children, Go Where I Send Thee feat. Kenny Rogers - again watch to the end for a neat message from Kenny on how they met
This is just a small part of their rabbit hole. Can’t wait for you two to keep exploring #HomeFree together - they just keep getting better!
If you are going to do Home Free's sea shanty... Make sure it is the live one! So much better than the video version.
#HOMEFREE!
Home Free is such fun to listen to. Add in the Oak Ridge Boys and you have a great recording.
Another band I don't think you have listened to is PostModern Jukebox. They play modern songs in 1920s-60s style with some amazing guest singers. Listen to their version of Creep featuring Hailey Reinhart, Dream On featuring Morgan James, or both of them doing All About That Bass with Ariana Savalas as well. I know you'll love them.
If you haven't discovered VoicePlay, you need to! They are the third leg of the acapella trifecta, and are fabulous. They are unique and have a style all their own, and cover all genres. Every video for the last couple of years has been better than the one before!
You really should check out their other collab "Beautiful star of Bethlehem". It is gorgeous!!❤❤❤
This is my first time on your channel, it won't be my last. Great reaction, I'm here for it. New sub for you.
Loved your reaction! NEW sub for more Home Free!
Just an FYI, but Geoff Castellucci from Voice Play made the arrangement for this for them! You should do a reaction to them as well if you haven't already!
Was going to say the same thing if nobody else said it. As usual, Geoff knocks it out of the park with an arrangement.
Not entirely true. Geoff had an arrangement for Elvira that he had used with VP. Tim borrowed it from him & then tweaked it to fit better with the Oak Ridge Boys.
Rob comparing beards with William Lee Golden The conversation went
Rob: I have serious beard envy but my wife won't let me grow it that long
William: with all seriousness looked at Rob and said Boy, You have a decision to make.
Best story ever and Tim told it in an interview at a Nashville (?) Radio station LOL
Both Bands are 100% Fans of each other and the Oaks have been doing this for 50 yrs Legit legends !
appreciate another reaction to Dave's Pentatonix!
oh i mean uh Home Free! (been a huge fan of both groups for years lol love em both)
Proud of ya on the not drinking not easy
This is a beautiful song 🔥 Loved the reaction
Ya gotta check out Larry Stewart sings "Bluest Eyes in Texas" Country Road TV, one of the Oak Ridge Boys goes off in that one. That channel has so many GREAT performances..
Great Home Free Reactions, hope to see you guys do more Home Free.
Vocal group means they do use instruments 😊
HONEY IM GOOD next please 😍
I never really liked the original but listening to this collaboration is fantastic.
speaking of drum kits...you guys should check out Adam Rupp Drum Solo video...he's live and its insane talent!
The song you were hinting at, in regards to the George Clooney movie, is OVER 100 years old. It's in the movie but not from the movie.
Dave, you obviously haven't watched any of the Adam Rupp Drum solos recorded live by audience cell phones! If you think Home Free does his drums in studio.
WATCH SEA SHANTY LIVE VERSION!!! What a beautiful smile this young lady has, and if that's a smile when unwell.... goodness! Home Free are amazing, welcome. Nana Karen UK
Good, I guess you'll have to keep reacting to them to add them to your playlist. You have over 200 more to go. (serious face) Subscribed for more Home Free A Capella. 😉
It's a great bit! Thank you for this! ❤
You should check out Voiceplay, they are another amazing Acapella group. Their bassist Geoff Castelucci is amazing on his own.
You two should react to Pentatonix doing Seal's "Kiss From A Rose." It's a new one from their latest album. I know that I Am Ash would love it!!!
You have to see Adam Rupp doing his drum solo live, there are several that have been posted on TH-cam by fans in the audience. I like the one where Adam has a red flannel shirt, l believe it's the oldest video of him. You know the first one, is what l'm trying to say.
Great song. Both groups are awesome. Next home free song you should react to is folsom prison blues. It shows the fun side of the group.
Try Adam Rupp's drum solo, found on TH-cam. It's worth it and it's live. He does it at all of their concerts. I'm sure they do layering too but it's impressive in real time...
These guys love to team up with other groups or artists.
Excellent reaction this is golden.❤️😎🇺🇸
Try the life sea shanty medley. It's as good or better than the video.
If you like Home Free and Pentatonix, might i suggest checking out Voiceplay. They are known as the theatre kids of acapella. I think you will really enjoy their videos.
The Oaks base singer passed away last year.
Really? There is no mention of that on their Facebook or Wikipedia page.
No he didn't. You might be confused with the lead singer they had for 3 years in the 50s. He passed last year.
Great Post, Guys. And ASH, go for the SEA Shanties by HOMEW FREE. I believe you will love it. Ohh, and KEEP getting better. OB Dave, make her do that. LOL.
Check out Brother's In Arms, Mayday, Helplessly Hoping, Feel My Love, and many others.
I sub to several music reaction channels that branched out and started a movie reaction channels. So you could and show her O Brother Were Art Thou 😊 and follow up with War Horse a movie about a young British lad and his horse in WW I 😊
Heard the lyrics for Lola by the kinks lol?
Don't you have groups like this in the UK?
Another thing about Pentatonix is they don't have anyone that can play drums with their mouth 😜
lol, lemon water? isnt that just lemonade?
Get a little deeper and more familiar with Home Free, then do Mayday. Be sure to know them all well before you do though. It'll pay off huge!!!
If you like sea shanties try Voice play singing Hoist the Colours (Pirates of the Carabiyan
A Capella means ALL SOUNDS ARE DERIVED FROM THE VOCAL CHORDS .... not actual instruments !
❤🤠 HF. Great reaction 🏠🍟
You two make a good team kind of like Beavis and Butthead. I mean that in a good way
So she's beautiful, smart and funny... did she lose a bet? :P
I love Home Free, but I didn't like this in the 70's when it came out so no on this one! Please check out Brother's In Arms, Mayday, Helplessly Hoping, In The Blood, and many more!
Meh. No fun for me.
