American Pie turned 50 and Don McLane wanted to rerecorded it. Guess with who? More than worth it.
One of HF's finest!!!
First high tenor is Austin. The second solo was Rob. The low bass is Tim. The beatboxer is Adam Rupp. The guy singing the jaw harp is the baritone who is Adam Chance. They are AMAZING!
There is one song, where nobody is "shining". They just sing together in the most beautiful harmony, and the video is filmed in the most beautiful scenery. Watch my personal favourite How Great Thou Art!
Oh yeah that's great!!!
Agree totally with this. The most stunning harmonies I’ve heard from them. Gets me emotional every time.
Yes! Highly recommend this one too
How great thou art is pure magic
That song gives me goosies everytime.
We, the fans of these guys, call ourselves Home Fries. The rabbit hole is deep, and its glorious!
I just found these guys... I wanna be a Home Fry!!! Just blown away by their talent!
They never miss on a song. Pick any song and soon you will be a Home Fry.
I haven't seen one person who really listens to them don't fall for them! U watch u get addicted! Love Home Free!!!
Their Butts Remix is great for showing their fun side. Plus, covers country, rock and rap.
Also 'Champagne Taste (on a Beer Budget)'.
Also Misty Mountain Cold by Peter Hollins ft. Tim Foust (the bass from Home Free) is mind blowing
The Butts Remix is my favorite to come back to for a laugh.
Please, in future, remember to put the silent 'k' at the start of *k r a p* ...
@@EarlJohn61 If you don't like them why are you listening an commenting? Putting a B in front of locked.
The best part of Home Free is they are all individual stars, but meld together perfectly! And, they so songs that highlight each member! Welcome to the rabbit hole! ♥️
The face when you realize there is no actual harmonica. that wasn't low for Tim Faust (their bass singer). You picked a good one to start with, I hope you check out more of their music.
The Boys to Men cover they did is one of their best...
Yeah it was.
So you don't have to search their catalogue, It's Boys To Men's End of the Road
You have so much in store with Home Free! Like Pentatonix, they are totally addictive! First tenor - Austin Brown, second (beard and glasses) - Rob Lundquist, beat boxer, harmonica, magical sound maker - Adam Rupp, bass (5 octave range) - Tim Foust, and last but not least, mouth harp and singer - Adam Chance ( goes by Chance since there are 2 Adam's. You can't go wrong but a fun song watch their Sea Shanty medley!
I love this song, Adam's beat boxing is world class, they slayed this!
I love when one of my favorite reactors discovers one of my favorite songs.
ALL OF THEM! You can't go wrong with Home Free
Your brain will absolutely melt on Misty Mountains with Tim Foust and Peter Hollens.
The biggest advice I can give when going down the Home Free rabbit hole is to save "Mayday" for when you know all of them and their usual talents VERY well. Home Fries call it "Mayday ready" and it really makes a difference with that particular cover. I promise that if you save Mayday until you're ready it will be an EPIC experience.
Adam is amazing (the beatboxer). You need to watch their sea shanty medley where he does something I've never seen a beatboxer do.
Tim, the bass has a 5 octave range, his party piece is to burst sub woofers.
Adam Chance, the baritone, has a 4 octave range, and can take over bass when needed
Adam Rupp, the beat boxer, is affectionately known as the freak of nature by his fans
Then we have Rob, the tenor with glasses and beard, and Austin the other tenor
They are a country based a Capella band, but will turn their hands, or voices, to almost any genre.
Welcome down the Home Free rabbit hole.
Sometimes they collaborate with other artists. Try “Elvira”. Infectious good humor.
Definitely a must-see
They did Elvira when they was under the record label contract of Sony so youtube might block it if you do a reaction video of it.
My favorite HF collaborations are One Voice with Billy Gillman, God Bless the USA with Lee Greenwood, Amazing Grace with Peter Hollins, Children Go Where I Send Thee with Kenny Rodgers, and my all time favorite HF collaboration was What Child Is This with HF founder Chris Rupp.
Home Free is amazing. Great reaction. Check out End Of The Road, Love Train, or When A Man Loves A Woman. They're all great.
YES! I have been waiting for you to venture over to my guys! Home Free are amazingly talented but don’t take themselves too seriously. They love to have a good time.
For breathtaking harmonies-Helplessly Hoping. For a boogie break- Love Train. For crazy fun -Butts Remix!
There's just one mistake you can make with Home Free -- listening to "Mayday" too soon. In order to get maximum enjoyment from that performance, you must know all the members and their voices really well. That will take 5 or 6 of their newer songs that include solos by Chance, the newest member of the group. (He's the one who contributed the jaw harp to MOCS, but you don't hear him sing.) Other songs that feature Chance include "Some Girls Do" and "The Gambler." He hits a home run with "Cover Me Up" (and sings great, too!)
"American Pie" is a good overall choice because it has solos by Chance and all the other members (except Adam, the beatboxer.) This performance is done together with Don McLean, the original artist. For a man who is now 75, Don does a GREAT job...and he "fits" perfectly with Home Free.
Rob, the second tenor you heard in MOCS, does a great job with "End of the Road" and Austin (the high tenor) did the best version of "When a Man Loves a Woman" that anyone has recorded since Percy Sledge wrote the song in 1966.
The Sea Shanty Medley also showcases Chance's voice well, as does their collab with Peter Hollens on I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For. Oh! And their cover of Folsom Prison Blues.
In my head I refer to Rob as "The Reverend Rob Lundquist" because the man can PREACH when he sings.
I liked your comment because he MUST know that Mayday should be reacted to but it has to come after he has a thorough understanding of who Home Free is.
@@dezdemona3030 Recently, I ran across a reactor who took a viewer's advice and listened to "Mayday" as his 2nd HF song. He noticed the ordinary greatness, of course, but totally missed the features of that song that made it such a delightful surprise. I felt sorry for the poor guy.
There is not a song you can go wrong with as far as Home Free goes. A few of my faves, Butts Remix, Hillbilly Bone, Seven Bridges road, Elvira just to name a few. Welcome to the Home Fries! Awesome reaction! Reviewing is never a problem I'd listen to any of their songs a million times over.
Yup April, all of them, and then, particularly after Hillbilly Bone, he will be ready for Mayday :)
@@jeannietaylor4968 I don't think you can ever be "ready'" for Mayday.
@@aprilebert157 ha ha ha, true :)
@@aprilebert157 yep! I was just thinking, then, once you're used to everyone singing their respective parts, then, and only then, watch Mayday, lol...
Thanks for the Home Free reaction. Other songs by them to checkout : Helplessly Hoping, Folsom Prison Blues, American Pie w/Don McLean and Quarantine.
after you get a few songs under your belt of them then check out Mayday.
I absolutely love Quarantine. It's so much fun in an "unfun" time. I recommend "Quarantine" highly!
@@darkestwish5947 Yeah. Don't do that one until you've seen about 7-10 songs so you know their sound a little. Phenomenal beatboxing in that one though.
Actually 3 of them are from the south. Austin high tenor is from Georgia, the bass Tim is from southeast Texas and the baritone Chance is from Alabama. Your reaction was absolutely great.
Thanks Sharon! I got a feeling a handful would be from the south 🤘🏼🤘🏼😊
The remaining two are from Minnesota!
I heard Austin's drawl best when he sang "Lover" at 3:24 in this vid.
Which, to me means that the whole bunch are from the north.
🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
@@EarlJohn61 for me it's just the opposite. Lol
You should listen to their originals "Dive Bar Saints" and "Champagne Taste", as well as "Country Fried Pop Medley", "Elvira - Ft. The Oak Ridge Boys".
Excellent reaction. This band has a very large catalog so I suggest you continue with reactions and bypass reviews, btw. As far as song selections, I suggest you you check out the following to get a quick sense of their intricate arrangements, harmonizing, humor, and vocal ranges: How Great Thou Art, Do You Hear What I Hear, Helplessly Hoping, When A Man Loves A Woman, End of The Road, Cover Me Up, Mayday, and Butts Remix. The first lead tenor is Austin Brown and he is from Georgia. You need to check out his solo offerings as well. The bass, Tim Foust is from east Texas, and has a 5 octave range, the second lead tenor is Rob Lundquist and is from Minnesota, as well as the beatboxer, Adam Rupp, who cofounded HF 20 years ago in college, with his brother Chris, who left the band in 2016. He was replaced by Adam Chance, who goes by Chance, is a baritone/bass with a 4 octave range, and he was born in Florida, but grew up in Alabama. Their fans are call Home Fries, and I think you just became one yourself.
Hold off on Mayday until you have done 4-5 others.
@@BTMikeMan exactly what I was gonna say.
The Boondocks/Fishing in the docks is by far my favorite of theirs!
When they do this song live, Austin (power tenor) and Adam (beatboxer) do a (fake)harmonica duet and that is Chance (baritone) doing the jaw harp at the beginning and end. In concert, they use a live looper for the background sounds and repeating vocals so that they can beatbox and sing over those. It's really awesome!
That jaw harp sits under almost the whole thing.I've watched some of the reactions from opera singers, and they call it overtone singing.
@@Loruca I suspect that they are also doing undertone singing.
So, having seen them several times live, there are 3 members of this group who can sing low enough to vibrate the theater or arena: Tim (the bass--white shirt here), Chance (the baritone and former bass in previous group--in the back left here), and Adam (the beatboxer). Go back and refresh your memory by listening to "Ring of Fire" again; it's always fun.
I'd suggest watching Adam Rupp's solo (there are a couple up here on TH-cam) since you like rock/metal music. They are impressive. Good job for recognizing that it was a "fake" harmonica.
For some patriotic stuff, I'd suggest "God Bless the USA" by the USAF Singing Sergeants featuring Home Free (this is a song that Home Free sings at a lot of their concerts for the past 20 years or so and this updated version is fantastic).
For some romantic music, "When a Man Loves a Woman."
For a mix of country and pop and rap and rock, "Butts Remix" and "Country-Fried Pop Medley." Both of these are with their former baritone and original group member, Chris Rupp, brother of the beatboxer.
For some doo-wop, "Blue Ain't Your Color" and they are working on some sweet dance moves. For Home Free. Kind of. LOL.
For some just stand-around-and-sing fun, try "My Church."
Really, just pick stuff and react. None of it's bad. I second the other subscribers that said Home Free has a wonderful sense of humor and it shows in their videos. Their concerts are hilarious.
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole.
As I like to split the hair, Adam Rupp is a tenor and cannot sing very low. As a beatboxer he can do throat bass, and that is the rumbling sound we hear in some of the songs and in his beatbox solo. Throat bass is done with the false vocal chords, and not many beatboxers can do it.
I have seen many, MANY reactions to this song and to Home Free. I can honestly say that yours is in my top 3! Loved how you really listened and picked up on every element, especially in the background. I appreciate how you covered each person individually because a lot of people completely miss out on how all their individual contributions come together to form what you're hearing. I've even seen where some have totally ignored or paid no attention to the fact that they're an a capella group! I mean, that's key because they do it all with just their vocal talent. That's what so amazing! They do more than country, including original music. They also show their sense of humor in some if their music. Look forward to you reacting to more of their stuff.Thanks again for the great reaction!
Thank you Kristi! I’m so excited to check out more of their stuff. They are all so talented!
Austin is from Georgia; (Adam) Chance is from Alabama; and Tim is from Texas. Rob and Adam (Rupp) are from Minnesota.
Home Free has a ton of videos out on their channel. Not a single one is bad. Their older stuff was under a Sony label, and Sony is very quick with copyright strikes. Their newer stuff -- anything off the Dive Bar Saints or Warmest Winter albums or the more recent stuff recorded in quarantine -- is under their own label and will not have those problems. There are also a bunch of videos of live shows, which should also not be an issue. They love reactors.
This past year+ in quarantine they've put out a music video every other Friday like clockwork, recorded in their individual homes (or nearby) and then put together by their incredible team. It's been amazing to see what they can do.
The members, starting at the top of the musical scale and going down, are:
1) Austin Brown, high tenor, Georgia boy now living in Nashville. He was the first singer in this video. He has classical music training, so he can drop the accent when he needs to. He's written several HF songs. He has his own channel for his solo projects which is worth checking out as well. (No, he's not planning to leave and go out in his own. He's written more music than Home Free can use, so they've encouraged him to do some independent stuff as well.)
2) Rob Lundquist, lead tenor, from and still living in Minnesota. He's the bushy bearded guy with the smooth voice. Doesn't have any musical side projects that I'm aware of, but has a really fun movie podcast called "The Avid Indoorsmen" with longtime friend Eric "Buegs" Buegler, who can be seen in a few HF videos.
3a) Chris Rupp, baritone, brother of Adam, and founder of the group. He's not in this video, but was in "Ring of Fire". He left in 2016 to pursue other interests. Usually wearing a cowboy hat in their vids. He has his own channel where as well as his current independent projects he has some collaborations with Tim Foust (well worth checking out) and also posted some behind the scenes stuff from his HF years. Oh, and he has hair now, so he looks very different.
3b) Adam Chance (just called Chance to distinguish him from Adam Rupp), bass-baritone, from Alabama, currently living in LA. He was brought in to replace Chris. Before HF he was the bass in Street Corner Symphony, another a cappella group. He's the one doing the mouth harp sound in this video. He's got a great smoky voice featured in a number of songs and has arranged and produced some awesome videos of theirs. He just recently started posting songs to his own channel. He's also done some collaborations with The Hound + The Fox (I'd especially recommend their cover of "Hurt").
4) Tim Foust, bass with a remarkable range, from Texas now living in Nashville. He had a struggling solo career before he joined HF. His earlier work, as well as his collaborations with Peter Hollens (Someone's sure to mention Misty Mountains which is well worth a watch for the amazing vocal layering and the mind-blowing bass), Chris Rupp, and The Hound + The Fox are all worth checking out. There are also a lot of videos of him telling stories at HF concerts, visiting various localities, and trying out food. He's also written a number of HF songs.
5) Adam Rupp, beatboxer, tenor when he sings, HF founder with his brother Chris, from and still living in Minnesota. He's self-taught as far as beatboxing goes, but has a degree in musical performance with an emphasis on trumpet. There's not a whole lot of there apart from HF videos of him, but there are several fan videos of his "drum solo" live from their concerts. One of the most layered and complex a cappella arrangements I've ever heard is his arrangement for Home Free of "Do You Hear What I Hear?"
As far as HF songs I'd recommend, I'd say any of them with two exceptions -- Mayday and Snowglobe. Both are awesome, but wait to watch them till you have seen a few other HF songs & have a better idea of what parts the guys usually sing. They mix it up in these songs, so they're better appreciated with a bit of experience.
One more thing, you're going to get inundated by Home Fries (HF fans) and their requests. Don't get overwhelmed, and take things at your own pace. There's a lot of HF material out there with more showing up all the time, but it will be there when you get to it.
Succinctly put. I agree with all of this. I've not heard a song or cover I don't like. Amazing group with no egos...everyone gets to shine. I totally agree about 'May Day' & 'Snow Globe' Leave them until you've watched a fair few others. Do you hear what I hear, and Your Man will give you more of Tim's Bass. End of the Road (Boys II Men) shows their range (not country) I'd love a review of Ring of Fire
As long as you mention the "Fair Use" mantra and have a few pauses, Sony usually doesn't copyright strike very often. I agree that anything on Home Free's own label is only appreciated by them as far as reactions. Nice comment!
Adam and Rob are the founders from Manketo, Minnesota. Tim is from Texas, Austin is from Georgia and Chance is from Alabama.
"Misty Mountains" with Tim Foust (their bass) and Peter Hollens (solo a capella powerhouse)..... dude, you'll thank me later.
The bass is Tim Fouts. Check him out with Peter Hollens, Misty Mountains.
I was scrolling through to see if anyone else had already recommended it. This needs more likes. Need to get this one to the top.
Foust
@@nunoyabidness1182 I always misspell it. :D
@@corvus1374 No problem, we Fousts are used to it. It is spelled correctly more often than said correctly. (Frost and Forest have been popular versions) LOL
Rob (tenor) glasses does a ridiculous Boys to Men cover of End of the Road. , Austin, Hat tenor crushes When a Man Loves a Woman
Please wait with a reaction to Mayday til you listened/reacted to some of their other songs first.
I love seeing people reacting to it but it only hits really well when you're used to their normal arrangements and the base's (tim faust) low range.
Home Free is an amazing “a cappella” band. In Ring of Fire Tim hit a G#1 with the last note. They were on the NBC show the Sing Off and won in 2013 the year after Pentatonix won. On that show they sang Ring of Fire and Tim went lower. You can look up the video. Three of the boys are from the south and two from Minnesota. Austin is the lead in this song, he’s the high tenor and is from Georgia. Rob is a tenor (with glasses) and is from MN. Tim is the bass and is from Texas. Chance who was doing the mouth harp is from Alabama. Adam the beatboxer is from MN. During concerts Chance will do the mouth harp into a looper as he says it hurts his voice to do it too long. All the boys can do some beatboxing. They are all tremendous singers. They sing country but they sing all genres of music. They have collaborated with Kenny Rogers, Oak Ridge boys, Lee Greenwood, Don McLean and Alabama. They also have a great sense of humor and aren’t afraid to be goofy. Try Helplessly Hoping, How Great Thou Art, Country Roads, End of the Road to hear great harmonies. Tim the bass also has a 5 octave range and so can sing tenor to bass and everything in between. Loved your reaction.
You should hear Tim, the bass, just talking in an interview. The verse he sang was more or less in his regular speaking range.
Welcome to Home Free. Tenor wearing the hat (first one that came in) is Austin Brown. He is from the south. Check out Austin in Home Free's cover of "When a Man Loves a Woman" (it's phenomenal and so is Austin!). The second tenor is Rob Lundquist. Check out Rob in Home Free's Cover of "Never Gonna Give You Up" (which also demonstrates Home Free's fun and silly side). The bass is Tim Foust. Check out Tim in his collaboration with Peter Hollens in Misty Mountains. He hits a note at the end that you will NOT believe. The beat boxer is Adam Rupp and he is phenomenal. Check out his talents in The Butts Medley Remix (again, a fun side of Home Free) and his castanets (yes, castanets with no castanets) in their Sea Shanty Medley (another fun side of Home Free and excellent). The juice harp was provided by Adam Chance--who everyone calls Chance. Check out Chance in their cover of "Folsom Prison Blues" or "Blue Ain't Your Color" or their Sea Shanty Medley. I will say up front that I am an agnostic and one of my favorite Home Free songs is "How Great Thou Art" (where you can here Adam Rupp,the beat boxer, sing). It is absolutely magnificent and the music is spectacular as is the scenery (shot in the Austrian Alps). It is a "must see".
Welcome to Home Free - you're going to get a ton of recommendations. I love their songs, very clean and everything seems to fit or be natural with the song (99% of the time). They do a little bit of everything as far as genres and the whole scale from funny to serious. There are also so live show vids that are special in and of themselves.
Tim Foust, the bass was born in Texas, Adam Rupp, the beatboxer and Rob Lundquist (bushy beard and glasses) are from MN, Austin Brown, the tenor who sings first is from Georgia. Not sure where Adam Chance is from but I believe he was born in Florida.
You can't go wrong with any Home Free video!! Pure awesomeness!!❤
Mayday will blow your mind. The way these five over the moon talented men can harmonize like no other. It's a must have experience.
Love Home Free... just subbed!! Check out their cover of End of the Road or Folsom Prison Blues!
Thanks Leandra! I’ll add these to my list! Can’t wait to check out Folsom Prison Blues.
One of the top reactors on TH-cam for sure! Love your videos! I heard you say in your last Pentatonix video that you liked Boyz II Men. Home Free does a great cover of “End of the Road” that you should definitely check out next! Also, not sure if you knew this but Home Free was also a product of “The Sing-Off.”. They won the year after Pentatonix.
Thank you so much! That sounds fantastic! I’ll have to check it out.
It's amazing that a goofy little short-lived talent show produced so much amazing ... well, TALENT. PTX, Home Free, VoicePlay...
They were doing shows on the road before the Sing Off, at fairs and such. The Sing Off is what catapulted them into the spotlight, and helped them really take off.
Rob (tenor with the beard and mustache) was a bartender before joining Home Free, and Austin (tenor with the hat) was working singing on a cruise ship when he first heard HF sing, and decided he REALLY wanted to be a part of their group ....
Everyone is AMAZING in this group, and for a TRULY jaw dropping surprise, do Mayday. Not until you have watched enough of their other videos to know who they are, and what parts they normally sing, first.
For kicks, check out one of Adam Rupp's Drum Solos. You'll see why people think he swallowed a drum set -- personally, I think he ate record players, castanets and more for dessert ....
Great reaction... Thank you... And oh yeah the beatboxer is a two time world champion... So that's why he is amazing ...
Adam plays harmonica better without one than I do with one. Austin doesn't play a harmonica either and sometimes they don't play together. Sounds pretty good, especially when Adam doesn't get any drums out to add to it.
Actually, Austin has a little bit of "yodel" to his voice here. He does the same in "All About that Bass," which also displays their crazy sense of humor...
Great comment! 😂
@@G-grandma_Army Thank you. Somewhere there's a clip of him taking Tom on a rather harrowing car ride. Tim says it's a good thing he doesn't have a car!
Goosebumps and tears. Breathless....don't miss, when a man loves a woman. That was my first intro to Austin Brown. 💞
Rob Lundquist (The Bearded Wonder) and Adam Rupp, the beat boxer (AKA The Freak of Nature) are from Minnesota. Lead tenor, Austin Brown, is from Georgia. Bass Tim Foust is a Texan. Baritone Adam Chance is a 'Bama Boy.
Love them ... each person is a huge talent in their own right! There is nothing they do you won’t enjoy! Welcome into the Home Free Family of Home Fries! Thanks so much for your reaction!!! 😁
Austin is the first tenor that sang in this song and he's from somewhere in the south, I don't remember where though. Rob is the second tenor, from Minnesota. Tim is the bass who makes your brain melt, and he's from Texas. Chance is the baritone and he was doing a lot of the overtone singing. And Adam is the beatboxer, we also call him the man who swallowed a drum set, and he's only gotten better since covid hit. Adam is from Minnesota as well, and I don't know where Chance is from.
Chance is from Alabama.
Yes, Chance is from Alabama and Austin is from Georgia
1st tenor (Austin) is from Georgia. Adam (beatboxer) and Rob (2nd tenor) are from Minnesota. Tim (bass) is from Texas and baritone (Adam Chance goes by Chance) is from Florida, but right across from Mobile ALA.
Austin, Tim and Chance (cowboy-hatted tenor, bass and baritone) are from the South (Austin is from Georgia, Tim is from Texas and Chance is from Alabama.) Adam and Rob (second, bearded tenor and beatboxer) are both from Minnesota. Home Free is another awesome band, well worth diving into; they excel at both spiritual, emotional songs and laugh-out-loud numbers. And yes, Tim's bass can also go crazy low - like, speaker-destroying low. He also (like Geoff Castellucci of Voiceplay) has a five-octave range.
(I've added my 'likes' to already-listed songs in the comments, as suggested.)
Just an FYI on the Beatboxer of Home Free, Adam "The Freak of Nature" Rupp ... he was twice voted best All-Around Beatboxer by his peers at the World A Capella Expo in Austria
Help! I cannot find anything about this expo in Austria! I would love to know about it.. anything! Where and how did you find about it?
I too would love to see a beat boxer competition - Adam Rupp has to excel - amazing what he does!
Awesome reaction. Metal Head, Country, Jazz, doesn’t matter. Good music is good music. Welcome to the rabbit hole of Home Free. You will be a home fry before you know it!!
Great reaction man.
The first tenor is Austin. The 2nd tenor is Rob. The bass (who can go pretty high as well) is Tim. The beat boxer is Adam Rupp (Look for the vids on YT called Adam Rupp drum solo). Wow!!! The last guy we see at the end is Adam Chance (he goes by Chance to avoid confusion with the other Adam). He is the baritone in this group but was the bass in his last group. He is also the guy doing the "Jews Harp" sound throughout this piece. I think all of the guys can beatbox when Adam has too much going on, Austin (1st tenor) often joins Adam on "harmonica" during live shows. Definitely check out Adam's drum solo. I swear it sounds like he is doing 3 sounds at once and the solo vids are recorded live in front of an audience. Also a note for background, the founding member of this group was Chris Rupp (beatboxers brother) He was inthe Ring of fire video (cowboy hat). He has since gone on to other pursuits and he recommended Chance to replace him. Enjoy!!!!
The lead tenor, Austin Brown, is from Georgia. Adam Chance, baritone, grew up in Alabama, and the bass, Tim Foust, is from Texas. The beat boxer, Adam Rupp, and the second tenor, Rob Lyndhurst, are from Minnesota.
Rob’s last name is Lundquist😉
If you want to hear the beatboxer absolutely killing it, look up Adam Rupp Drum Solo. It's the first result when you look it up.
Also, welcome to the wonderful world of Home Free, home to Tim Foust, one of the lowest basses possible. They have done a ton of awesome covers, but here are a few good ones: Ring of Fire, American Pie, Elvira, All About That Bass, Folsom Prison Blues, and How Great Thou Art.
Austin brown who took lead in this is from Tifton GA and Tim foust the bass is from Texas.the beat boxer is adam rupp who has been voted the best beatboxer in the world twice in a row. the rest are from Minnesota. you are now a home fry!!!
Chance grew up in Alabama, but now lives in Los Angeles
New subscriber here! Homefry( Homefree fan) here! Great reaction! If you love that bass guy Tim Foust, who by the way has a 5 octave range! For one of his lowest notes check out Peter Hollens featuring Tim Foust singing " Misty Mountains " it is amazing. Then follow that up with Home Frees cover of Cams "Mayday" for his higher register. It will blow you away!. Thanks for the great reaction! More Homefree please! 😁
Get the popcorn ready for when he reviews Tim Foust and Peter Hollens with the LOTR song lets see him lose his shhhhugar!!
Three are from the south and the other two are both from Minnesota. I’ve seen them live and they blow your mind the entire concert. Tim’s bass actually vibrates the whole floor
One of my favorites from them! I recommend their cover of When A Man Loves A Woman, it is absolutely amazing! And yes most of them are from the south. Austin, the first tenor that sang is from Georgia (and so am I!) Chance the one doing the jaw harp noise is from Alabama, and Tim the bass is from Texas.
Another first class a capella group...you’ll see...amazing bass and harmonies..
The first tenor, their high tenor, is Austin Brown, from southern Georgia. Rob Lundquist, the 2nd tenor is referred to as the man with the voice of an angel and hails from Minnesota. The bass man is Tim Foust, from Southeast Texas, and he has a solid 5 octave range, I actually caught his bass vibration on video you can see. The beat boxer is Adam Rupp and one of the original founding members out of Minnesota. you will be in awe of his talent the more you watch. Last but not least is Adam Chance, referred to as Chance, grew up in southern Alabama He is a true bass but sings baritone with Home Free. He steps up to bass when Tim is lead singer in a song. Didn't hear much from Chance except the mouth harp but he has a voice as smooth as a well aged whiskey.
This cover has so much going on...
Sever reaction host, have had to rewind and play over parts multiple times. Great Reaction!!
This group won 'The Sing Off' the year after PTX. Two other groups from that year made something of their selfs; Voice Play being one of them. Congrats Jeff, You one song in your journey to becoming a Home-Fry. 😉
BTW: You can still react to Ring of Fire... They did a cover during, TSO and several Live versions post here on YT.
Tim Foust thier bass has a 5 octave range. In thier mayday cover tim sings tenor while Adam Chance (the mouth harp) sings bass
Just pick any other song, any genre, they are all just as good.Just save Cam's Mayday for last
If he does review Mayday I hope he sees Cams version too ... she definitely deserves a shout out for a great song
Thank you for a great reaction to Home Free...These guys will have you laughing and sad. Lots of songs have been suggested and they are all great. So I won't post any for now. Be sure to wait a little on Mayday until you have heard more of the other songs. Thanks again for your reaction and welcome. Liked and subscribed.
I am a METALHEAD in LOVE with Home Free! Welcome to the family 😁
Home Free. They've turned me into a man of constant listening.
I am so glad you are enjoying Home Free !!!! They are my favorite group and I have been able to see them live 6 times, and in fact I have seen this song performed live twice !!! They are fabulous entertainers and suburb vocalists and their beatboxer is unbelievable !! Thanks so much for the reaction and will sub if do do more Home Free !! And yes, 3 of these guys are from the south. The high tenor is from Georgia, the bass from southern Texas and the baritone is from Alabama. Please, please react to more Home Free.
The deep bass will blow your mind in their cover of Mayday. American Pie, Folsom Prison Blues, and Hillbilly Bone are must watches
Please wait to do Mayday until you’ve done several other songs and know what each member does. You will enjoy it more 😁
A fun one with the bass Tim is that he has to self limit what he can do on studio recordings due to not wanting to pay for replacements on expensive equipment. To get the full effect you have to see him live.
If you want a video where Tim plays around with some more bass notes look for the Peter Hollens Misty Mountains featuring Tim Foust.
Your reaction was my reaction! Fun to watch! Love this group! And yes, goosebumps!
Austin the first tenor is from GA. I thing the bass Tim is from Texas. The guy making the mouth harp sound is Adam Chance from Alabama.
The high tenor Austin Brown , is from Georgia. The low bass is Tim Foust, is from Texas. The one with glasses, Rob is from Michigan. I don't know where the other two are from. Hear them sing, When a Man Loves a Woman.
Rob is from Minnesota! Also Adam Rupp is from Minnesota, where the band is based.
Adam Chance is from Alabama.
Two guys sing bass!! One guy has a higher voice when it's needed!! Unreal!!!
Home Free - Everybody Walkin This Land!
Huge Home Fry here!! 1st guy Austin Brown-tenor -from Georgia, Rob Lundquist-tenor from Minnesota, Adam Rupp-percussion/beatbox from Minnesota, Adam Chance- baritone (jaw harp extraordinaire- also sings bass) Tim Foust -BASS FREAK from Texas.
It’s just magic ♥️
High tenor is Austin Brown from South Georgia and Bass is Tim Foust from Texas.
Tim rocked it on their cover of Folsom Prison Blues
Tim Foust is the bass. Also is a friend of Geoff Castellucci bass of VoicePlay
I love watching a new Home Fry being born 😁
Just my homemade cheat sheet I’ve accumulated so far... as sort of Cheat sheet.
Home Free is a country a cappella group but they don’t stay in their assigned genre. They do all cover songs across the board. Their fan base call themselves Home Fries.
Tim Foust (bass) can go as low as G1, not found on the standard keyboard. Some say his low notes are quite emasculating. Has, in fact, blown speakers (there’s a video out there of it). It’s notable, that despite his fame, he’s very humble (see the video of him receiving an award - hall of fame recognition).
Adam Rupp, the beat boxer (yes that’s a harmonica sound he’s creating without the instrument) has won at least two awards (that I’m aware of) for in beat boxing. He is said to eat drum kits for breakfast and can be quite trying when on long bus tours. He is also the brother of Chris Rupp (not in this video but earlier ones - left to pursue his own career).
Austin Brown, lead tenor, can hit some high notes (see When a Man Loves a Woman). He’s got that odd quirkiness to him and has a cat named Dawg (don’t know why that’s important to add). He also wrote an original Christmas song (so over due for one of them) called “Cold Hard Cash.” It showcases his comedic and writing skills.
Rob Lundquist (glasses and beard), from my state of Minnesota, has two kids and is considered the lower tenor (Austin being the higher tenor). He does a great job with Sir Mix-a-lot, he’s also the grounding and all around force for the group (because there’s no idea just how out of control and quirkiness the group would be with Austin, Tim and Adam running wild). He also reminds me of Bobby Singer, a character from the t.v. show Supernatural, when he wears his red and black flannel.
(Adam) Chance, called Chance so not to be confused with the drum kit (Adam Rupp), is the one making the Jew harp in the background. He’s the newest member, replacing Chris Rupp. More recent videos have him featured as lead singer (see Johnny Cash’s “Folsom Prison”). He’s is actually a bass but sings bass-baritone in the group.
The best things that make this a cappella group stand out is that they seem to have so much fun in making videos, they’re versatile, and no one member is always center stage (they share the spot light - though Austin can seem over hyper comedic with flamboyant exaggeration {which we all love him for it}).
Thank you so much for this!!
I love watching people fall in love with Home Free! I don’t think you can avoid it when you first hear them.
Tim (bass) is from SE Texas and Austin is from Georgia. Rob is from Minnesota.
I'm a Heavy Metal fan too and I love Home Free.... There harmony and abilities are amazing.
So many songs from HF. You can’t go wrong. “Folsom Prison Blues”, “End of the Road”, “Mayday”, How Great Thou Art”, “Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget”, “Butts Remix”. They have such a wide variety of comedic and also tender songs. They can pretty much give you every genre. Even songs from musicals (“Bring Him Home” from Les Mis).
Alabama, Georgia, Texas, and 2 are from Minnesota (not the south). The group got started in MN.
Mayday will really blow your mind. Tom the bass starts the song. His range is unbelievable.
2 are from minnesota rob the one in the overalls, adam the beatboxer,, one from alabama tchance the one in the back doing the jaw harp, one from georgia austin the lead singer and one from texas tim
This is probably my favourite by them - another is their version of In The Blood originally by John Mayer.
Great reaction! Metal Heads don’t usually care much for country music. However, I’m impressed that you recognize incredible vocal talent when you hear it, so thank you for that! I recommend that you listen to Helplessly Hoping and End Of The Road next just to give you a better understanding of just how talented these guys really are! Don’t wait too long! We Home Fries are pretty loyal to them and will move on if you don’t react to them very often. 😃
Chance, Austin and Tim are all from the South. Tim is Bass, Austin is High Tenor and Chance is baritone/bass
Home Free was also on the Sing Off, the season after Pentatonix and all their performances are available here on TH-cam. It’s an abbreviated season but it would give you a taste of what they sound like live with better audio than cell phone quality.
Home Free is an amazing group of a capella singers!
Holy heck! That was flippin' awesome. WOW!
I agree! Blew me away!
"lord what is happening" new subscribers is what happening now..... Love your reaction, you can't go wrong with any home free song so I'll be waiting for more.
Thanks Riley! I can’t wait to check out more of their stuff!
