I’m happy that you’re back! The first official song HF did with Bastein is a cover of Bonnie Raitt’s “Something to Talk About “ with Bastein taking lead, with some ad libs by Rob. It’s a fantastic rendition, and I think that Bastein is going to work well with Rob. The arrangement really captures that soul feel of Bonnie’s original. I believe that you will enjoy it.
As a subscriber, glad to see you back with your honest reactions. HF is releasing a Xmas album so I don’t think they’ll be comedic in the next few months but they are working on the next project. I’m hoping for some extraordinary arrangements and maybe a mashup. 💜💜💜
Adam Bastien has been a part of the Home Free family since their early days in 2000-2001 when he was in and out of performing with them before the group solidified. When they won the Sing Off in 2013 and had to tour for that program, Bastien was one of the "B" singers who helped fulfill their prior contracts not connected with the show. When Chris Rupp left in 2026 he formed another group called 7th Ave along with his sister Tristin Rupp and Bastien, with a few others rotating in and out to make it a quartet. The last several years Adam Bastien has been performing with Jerome Bell as OneUp, or OneUpDuo in some videos.
So, so very happy you’re back! I’ve missed your channel! Actually. There are three Adams: Rupp, Chance, and Bastien. Also, their initial intro for Bastien is their cover of Bonnie Rait’s “Something To Talk About” and it’s so very good!
Been to 2 concerts now with Bastien and he has jumped in and the transition was smooth! He fits, the guys are so much more energetic, happy! Enthusiastic, glad Bastien joined them.
OMG!!!! I am so so so so happy to see you back!!! Love this reaction.... I am very glad you are back Michael!! I love Austin and will miss him, but Adam B, killed it in this song....
So glad you’re back. And I completely understand wanting to do a variety of reactions and music types. I’ve been pleasantly surprised by Bastien and how well he fits with the group. Maybe him being friends with them before joining helps. I highly recommend checking out Something to Talk About. There’s also a video about Bastien’s 1st weekend with the group which shows more of his personality.❤
Welcome back! There will always be a sense of shift within a group when a member steps down and another takes their place. That may be so, but as I've found with Home Free, it never feels forced or out of place. This was actually the second video they released featuring Bastien (The new member's last name, and what the band is calling him by, just like Adam Chance is Chance). The first video they released was Something to Talk About (th-cam.com/video/vHFXbFtJlhU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=p0YtP3Ud0GfyG6pn), and that one will give you exactly what you were wanting to know about their new singer.
I miss Austin but really like the new Adam he has a beautiful voice. The first one they did with him is the song Something To Talk About. Thats a really good one also.
Welcome back missed your reactions 😊 There are actually 3 Adam’s in the group. Adam Rupp, Adam Chance and now Adam Bastien ( bass like the fish - teen ) they are going to go by last names . Bastien’s debut video was a fun one called Something To Talk About ( Bonnie Raitt ) Home Free is releasing a Christmas album in November called Any Kind Of Christmas and you know Home Free we love their silly Christmas videos and there looks like there could be a couple of really fun ones and there a couple of originals one written by Tim and one written by Bastien
So glad you’re back. You look great! I was able to see Home Free in concert with the new Adam. He fits in nicely. He has a great personality and voice!
Nice to see you back. I am not too good with change myself but Adam Bastien is fitting in well with Home Free. You may enjoy his first song with them which is more upbeat & fun. It is a cover of Bonnie Raitt's "Something To Talk About". I miss Austin but he wants to spend more time at home & start a family.
Love having you back!!! Been watching your channel and content for about 6 years now when you started your home free journey! Like you, I don't take change like this that great, but I'm adjusting. Can't wait for you to have you on this ride with us! Much much love
I was so excited to see this pop up on my feed this morning! Glad you are back! Please check out Something to Talk About from Home Free. It is a more upbeat and fun one with Bastien.
Bastien was with them before, he left before they went to the Song Off there's 3 Adams, Adam Rupp, Adam Bastien and Adam Chance That magic is still there with Bastien, I saw them live on Oct 11th
Hello again! Love your commentary, Adam B had sang with HomeFree in the past so he fell right in. Please check out their cover of Bonnie Raitt"s Let's Give Em Something to Talk About, they really show off Adam B's voice in that one. Talk away!!
Good to,see you Michael! Bastein’s voice fits in so well with the guys and provides, to me, a different contrast with Rob’s than with Austin’s…the tone makes Rob even richer if that were possible.
As a Vince Gill Freak, I think Bastien did a really good job with this cover, he sits a little lower than Vince but he has a really nice timber and blends really well with the rest of the group.
You’ll like their 1st release with Bastien. Peppy cover of “Something to Talk About” is even better, IMHO, than this one. I saw them in September. Bastien has a great stage presence and good vocal control. It was as fun as before.
I get what u mean. You probably wanna see if their personalities mesh. Austin was soo good in the funny videos. He was such a funny guy. I'm hoping Bastien's personality comes thru a little bit. It does somewhat in their video of" Somethin To Talk About" Anyway welcome back Michael!
Yeah, you back, Michael! I haven’t been admonished like that for a while now, lol. We are all getting used to A3, that’s what I call him. Welcome back!
Great to see you back, checking out new HF! Adam goes by his last name, Bastien (bass teen). He brings a very smooth, soulful tone, so not the country influence of Austin. Hoping we can get some jazzy pieces and definitely holding out for some R&B from Rob & Bastien. (The guys released a Cristmas song to Patrons, tonight. R&B harmonize a few times...very pretty. Different dynamic from Austin and Rob.) Definitely check out B's first video with the guys 'Something to Talk About' which is fun, upbeat, cute video. B has a silly sense of humor so meshes well with HF, in that refard. Visually, being of similar height and age, he blends in well. And given his previous work with HF, many years ago, and Chris Rupp, HF knew exactly what they were getting when he came on board. Great choice. Of the fan videos I've seen of their current tour, the guys seem to have a newfound energy, look to be having a great time. 😊
i have really missed you! you are my favorite reactor! I'm a faithful follower/subscriber! I'm also a HomeFry and Pentaholic! you can also call me an Airhead, which are the fans of "Air Supply"! is there any way you could check them out? May 12, 2025, will be 50 years since they met, and they are still touring!! i saw them in 2022 & 2023! lots of love, Michael!!

I missed your special touch in reactions. It has been missed. Keep it sassy.
It's nice to have you back! Thanks for checking out our guys again. You are much appreciated.
Yay! Glad you’re back! Please react to Something to Talk About. It was the first MV Home Free put out with the new Adam.
He definitely Can Sing. Welcome back ❤🎉

"Something to Talk About" is the only other video with the new Adam in it. It is a little more upbeat and I believe you might enjoy it. Thanks

Like I’ve said on a few other channels, Home Free is the Nucleus of The Adam’s…. LMAO 🤣
I miss Austin but really like the new Adam he has a beautiful voice. The first one they did with him is the song Something To Talk About. Thats a really good one also.
Welcome back missed your reactions 😊

Check out the first video they released with him: Something to Talk About. It's upbeat and fun.
As a Vince Gill Freak, I think Bastien did a really good job with this cover, he sits a little lower than Vince but he has a really nice timber and blends really well with the rest of the group.
Love Adam Bastien Voice, Perfect Match with #HomeFree
We've missed you, Michael! There are now THREE Adams - Adam Rupp, Adam Chance and now Adam Bastien (pronounced BastEEN). The group calls him Bastien.
Nice to see you back!
You’ll like their 1st release with Bastien. Peppy cover of “Something to Talk About” is even better, IMHO, than this one.
I saw them in September. Bastien has a great stage presence and good vocal control. It was as fun as before.
That was great. Bit of shuffling going on 😊

Beautiful song and Adam Bastein did a great job. Check out Something to Talk About

Great cover of a Vince Gill cover.
I enjoyed your analysis. Glad you are back
Please react to Home Free Something to Talk About😊
actually 3 Adams- Adam Rupp, Adam Chance and Adam Bastien.- very good but is different. Adam Chance did drop a new original- Ancient History
This was beautiful. I will miss Austin but Adam is a great fit
3 Adams
Love it! But still like Vince Gill's original best...but this is awesome too!
