    When a Man Loves A Woman is my recommendation for your next reaction. It showcases a different side of the lead singer here, the amazing Austin Brown. He will blow you away, as will the harmonies and the vocal percussion provided by the other guys. Austin also has a successful solo channel with simple covers of mostly older classic songs, but don't let the simplicity fool you, as well as solo originals that are more produced (songs as well as videos), all worthy of a reaction.
    Thanks for the reaction, keep them coming! 🥰🙏

    The first two singers were Austin Brown, and Rob Lundquist. Both are amazing tenors. The bass singer is Tim Foust (I would recommend checking out his collaborations with Peter Hollens. It's just the two of them, but they sound like an entire choir.) The beatboxer is Adam Rupp (people joke about him having swallowed a drum kit as a child). The newest member of the group is the baritone, Adam Chance (he's mostly referred to as "Chance", to avoid confusion with the other Adam). By the way, the "jaw harp" sounds at the beginning and end, are Chance. Seeing your face at certain points in this video, I would recommend their cover of "When A Man Loves A Woman". It has Austin taking the lead, and seeming like he's flirting with the camera (his fiance was there, and he was singing to her).

    Home Free really used a lot of vocal techniques to make themselves sound as country as they can. The beatboxer is Adam Rupp one of the founding members of Home Free. The lead singer is the high tenor of the group, Austin Brown, an amazing singer...For your next Home Free reaction I'd like you to react to is "How great thou art" a five-part harmony "eargasm"...there is no beat-boxing but you will hear the beatboxer in that, trust me on this.

  • @lisaseverance6785
    @lisaseverance6785 3 ปีที่แล้ว +58

    I think the reason you have been "sleeping on these guys" is they call themselves a Country A Capella group. Which is true, they do sing a bunch of country songs but they also sing Pop and R&B. And at a live performance, you may even hear Musical Theater performances. They sing what they want period. Yes, they at times add a little country twang to the song but they never let you down as to their talent or the way the song sounds. Quite a few people have it stuck in their head what country music sounds like and these guys blow that thinking out of the water very time! So many people are not country fans but they love Home Free because they are just so good. And they always make you smile!

  • @sandrastorer5628

    Helplessly Hoping, a Crosby, Stills, and Nash cover from the 70's, is short but beautiful! Johnny Cash's Folsom Prison Blues cover is pretty cool too. I know you want requests, but shoot, all of their songs are consistently so excellent, you could just get the long list of all of them, close your eyes, randomly pick one, and guaranteed you'd love it! But I agree about Mayday. Listen to a few to get acquainted with all their voices, then listen to that one and My Maria.

    Hi MissMegan-
    Pentaholics, Home Fries and Voiceplayers (another A Cappella group-Voiceplay) don't compete. Those are the top 3 A Cappella groups that we call the "Trifecta." There are other groups as well, but these are the BEST!! Pentatonix is very polished, and in a High School Metaphor, are the "popular kids," and Home Free are the ones "throwing a party in the back 80," and Voiceplay are the "Drama Geeks." (geeks being used in the nicest way, lol) Depending on the day, time, how we're feeling, and the phase of the moon, we think each group is our favorite for that specific time. They don't compete with each other either. They've even worked together, had cameo's in each others videos and have even helped another with an arrangement for a video or two. True fans can get kind of protective when reactors start asking us to rank, rate or pick a favorite. For those of us who've been around since the beginning, they are like our kids and "Mama doesn't have a favorite...they're ALL my favorite"...for different reasons.

Together they are a perfect fit & complement each other so well. Tim Foust is the best bass singer in the business & Adam Rupp their beatboxer extraordinaire can make any sounds & is in a class by himself.

    Welcome to the rabbithole of Home Free. It is a deap, deap hole of pure music fun!
    Short about the guys as they are standing in this video.
    Front left. Rob Lundqvist. Tenor.
    Back left. Adam Chanse. Baritone/bas/low tenor. Newest member. 4 octave range.
    Front center. Austin Brown. High tenor.
    Back right. Adam Rupp. Beatboxer. Freak of nature when it comes to sounding like a drum-kit or any other odd sounds. Like a harmonica.. Founder of this group with his brother Chris. You will se Chris in some older videos singing. No longer in the group.
    Front right. Tim Faust. Bass extraordinere. A true basso profondo. Has a 5+ range in his voice. He can sing high tenor. But his bass voice.... Thats just awsome!
    You will se as you go down the rabbithole what they can do. My tip for next song is End of the road/Boyz to men - cover. There you will hear another side of them.
    Love your reaction. Thank you!

    Adam Rupp-percussion. Adam Chance - Baritone (there a some that feature his voice. He was the didgeridoo in this), Austin Brown -High Tenor (the ladies love him), Rob Lundquist - Tenor. Tim Foust - Bass (Range is 5+ octaves though).

    You should hear all the cool percussion Adam Rupp does on the Sea Shanty Medley!
    Also, they did a remake of American Pie at the request of, and with, the original singer, Don Mclean! You'll hear more of Chance's baritone-tenor.
    They do a bunch of excellent Christmas music and that is coming up, so lots of fun! I especially like their "Do You Hear What I Hear?". Chris Rupp is the baritone on older pieces like that. He looks a little like Adam Rupp, his brother.

    There are so many great songs by Home Free. You can't go wrong. End of the Road, Elvira, My Church, Let's Get It On / Thinking Out Loud mashup, Folsom Prison Blues, Mayday (although, it's usually suggested not to react to Mayday until you've reacted to a bit more of their stuff and have gotten to know them better). Honestly though, you can't really go wrong with any of their songs.

    Yeah Homefree is my favorite vocal band Voiceplay is right up there with them. I'm going to see Homefree again Dec 7th at the Rymen Auditorium in Nashville can't wait!! You definitely should check out more Homefree and some Voiceplay if u like acapella and u like bass. Geoff Castellucci from Voiceplay is an Amazing Bass as well just like Tim Foust of Homefree. Geoff has his own Channel where he does his own solo stuff that is awesome you should check that out if u like a bass voice. Geoff does his own harmony in his videos and everything so it really shows his range its pretty awesome. Some Good Geoff Castellucci Solo Videos are Blackbird, High and Dry, Take Me Home Country Roads. Some Good Voiceplay songs Are Hoist The Colors, Friends On The Other Side, If I Were A Rich Man/Girl. Theres a few to get you started from Geoff Castellucci and Voiceplay. You got plenty of good suggestions from others for Homefree so I won't put any lol. Hope you enjoy the Homefree rabbit hole and yes you were crazy for not jumping on board sooner lol but you should also check out Voiceplay as they are a close second to Homefree in my rankings.

    Home Free is the real deal. Although they are country they sing all genres of music. This song is over 100 years old but was made famous in the movie O Brother Where Art Thou. Austin is the high tenor (lead here). Rob (glasses) tenor. Tim (bass) has a 5 octave range so he can go super low but also sing tenor. Chance (baritone) in the back row. And Adam is the beatboxer. Adam is a freak of nature. He can do drums, harmonica, bugs, all manner of noises. They are known for their harmonies. Brothers in Arms, One Man Band, Helplessly Hoping, In the Blood, Die a Happy Man to hear more great harmonies. Good reaction Megan!

    I love Home Free first and PTX second. That all are so talented. Their live shows are superb too. All the men can sing the lead songs, they are all that talented. Austin Brown lead this song , he is the high tenor. Next you have Rob Linguist tenor, Rob has a rich mellow tone to his voice. Just beautiful. 3rd is Adam Chance, baritone and bass. Tim Foust is our bass and has a 5 octave range. The special young man with all the sounds is Adam Rupp. He is extremely talented and was a self taught beatboxer. He even taught himself drums so when he is making the drum sounds , he moves his arms as if he is playing the drums. He is the backbone of the group I think he is. Home Free has many covers they have done. And many originals too. I would like for you to react to Austin Brown’s cover of When a Man Loves a Woman. He is the lead for this song but al the guys are on camera too. This was during COVID-19. I sure hope you learn to love them as much as many of us do. Thank you so much..🎼🎶🦋🎵

    Your reactions to Home Free are great, as are all of the ones I've watched so far! In the past year, they have done some amazing music! I'd recommend "When a Man Loves a Woman," "American Pie (with Don McLean)", and "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" with Peter Hollens. (Hollens is actually the one who released that video, but Home Free is amazing in in it, along with 350 Patreon subscribers who sang as a chorus throughout the video.)

    Adam Rupp has won many beatboxing competitions. He’s unparalleled in the industry. Other beatboxers are really really good, but Adam is the GOAT. Fun note: Adam Rupp is the only “original” member of Home Free still in the group. Adam co-founded the group in 2000, with his brother Chris-in their dorm room in college. Chris Rupp left in 2016 to pursue his solo career, and he was replaced by Adam Chance (aka “Chance”, because there’s another Adam in the group). When you saw and reacted to “Brothers In Arms”, Tim Foust (bass in HF) started with his solo. The second soloist was Chance! And FYI: Pentatonix won NBC’s “The Sing-Off’ in 2011. Home Free won it in 2013!!

To see just their sheer vocal talent, Helplessly Hoping (a Crosby, Stills & Nash cover) and How Great Thou Art (backdrop is the Austrian Alps) are sheer perfection. For their goofy side try their Butts Medley or Hillbilly Bone. When a Man Loves a Woman (recorded during the lockdown, so only Austin is in studio) is a must and features Austin's amazing tenor voice. Hold off on Mayday until you know these guys and are familiar with their voices. So many great songs, you can't go wrong with any of them.

    You should react to Home Free's cover of 'When A Man Loves A Woman'. You'll see that Home Free takes turns singing lead. Austin Brown lead in this one for the most part with a couple of solo parts for the others. In 'When A Man Loves A Woman' he sings lead the entire song.

    Polyphonic undertone or throat singing perfected by Mongolian and Inuit tribes. Chance is excellent at it, oh so is Avi Kaplan! The "jaws harp sound.

    The earliest of the harmonica with no harmonica was by one Micheal Winslow in Police Academy. He was beat boxing before it was cool. (just kidding, its always been cool). Back to the beatboxer here, that's Adam Rupp, outside of Home Free, he has won the world beatboxing championship twice if I'm not mistaken.

    Amazed that you missed that, after Tims' solo, when he joins in with the rest he drops down a full octave to really shore up the bottom. Please react to their "Ring of Fire" where Avi joins with the guys to pair with Tim.

    When a man loves a woman. Austin is lead. The guy who was center in this video, their cover of boys to men's song End of the road . Lead is Rob Linguist. The gentleman with the Beard and glasses is another MUST. But really any song they do is Awesome!!

    The more you cover our guys, the more your channel will grow. Just as I discovered you on this one and went into your list and checked out your other reactions to them, more and more Home Fries will do the same.
    When it comes to Acapella, there is a Trifecta -- Home Free, Pentatonix and Voice Play. There is also a Trifecta of Basses, Tim Foust (Home Free), Avi Kaplan (formerly of Pentatonix), and Geoff Castellucci (Voice Play). It really isn't a competition between them, they all have strong fan bases, and the fans tend to like all 3 groups to one degree or another. That's because we may prefer one of the groups a bit more than the others (it's all personal choice), but we recognize the Pure Talent represented by the groups. I like some PTX, but I'm a solid Home Fry. I listen to Voice Play more than PTX, but I have some of theirs that I absolutely LOVE, as well.
    Don't try to compare the 3 groups, just sit back and be amazed by all of them :)

  • @m.b.6402

    Top notes to bottom:
    High tenor/countertenor: (pretty boy with cowboy hat in this vid) Austin Brown
    Anchor tenor: (teddy bear with beard and glasses) Rob Lundquist
    Baritone/bass: (Tidy beard, shield-shaped face) Adam Chance, commonly called "Chance" to keep him straight from Adam-the-beatboxer
    Bass (up to tenor): (Tall, dark, and lanky) Tim Faust (Five octave range. Really. Just...really... He hits high notes *I* can't hit, and I'm a second soprano)
    Beatboxer: Adam Rupp, one of two founding brothers
    In older vids you will also see the other founding brother, Chris Rupp rather than Adam Chance, who was brought in when Chris went solo.

  • @kevinboothe9991
    @kevinboothe9991 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The bass is Tim Foust (5 octave range and song writer), Austin Brown (the guy singing most of the lead here) high tenor, also a song writer, he and Tim have written several songs that the group has recorded. Listen to Warmest Winter, it's a song Austin wrote for his Grandmother. Rob Lindquist sang the second verse, he's a tenor also. Adam Rupp, the beat boxer is amazing, he's won several world beat boxing competitions, if you like his harmonica check out their Sea Shanty Medley, he does a mean castinet. Last but not least is Adam Chance, baritone with a 4 octave range, he's the one doing the twenty mouth harp in this. Hope that helps. Great reaction by the way.

  • @StevesTubes
    @StevesTubes 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Here are some great songs to showcase the different members;
    Adam Rupp (beatboxer): "Adam Rupp Drum Solo". The guy can't be human.
    Austin Brown (Front and Center Tenor): "When a Man Loves a Woman". Amazing vocals.
    Rob Lundquist (Big Beard Tenor): "End of the Road". Rob goes to church on this one.
    Adam Chance (Baritone in the back left): "Blue Ain't Your Color". Has a wonderful Mo Town vibe.
    Tim Foust (Deep Bass, Baritone, and Tenor!): "Folsum Prison Blues". There's too many to really choose...

  • @hamblinta

    Trying to choose the better group is a fools errand. I love both Home Free and Pentatonix. Either group could perform the other’s music but not as well. But for what they each sing they are the best. Their arrangements are other worldly and are exquisitely tailored to extract the best of each of their voices. Each one of them could have careers of their own but with much less success. The art of what they do is how they combine their voices into something spectacular where you hear sounds that both seem to come from nature and yet rise above it.

    Miss Friday, you are in for a ride you wont believe!!! Home Free has been around for 10 plus years. they are the most fun loving and funny group for singers and friends you will ever see. I would suggest you get to their channel and look over the 150 plus video's they have up. I recommend that if you want to learn more about them watch the hour long video from their winning season of the "sing-off" tv show. You really get the history of the group and some really great music. please check out "bless the broken road", for laughs check out their "butts medley. there is also a couple of live show video's of Adam Rupp doing a "drum solo". great stuff!! Sooo sit down, buckle up, and hang on your in for the blown mind of your life!!! P.S. you might what to check another acapella group called Voice Play, they were on the same season for the Sing Off as Home Free.

    Hello Miss Megan! If you want to really hear the talent of all of these guys individually and collectively just go to TH-cam and type in Home Free - 9 to 5 + Beatboxing Breakdown, October 27, 2015. You will definitely be mind blown. Thanks for the great reactions.

  • @shanialover
    @shanialover 3 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    Megan, Home Free and Pentatonix are both great groups. There is also Voiceplay and Voctave. The Bass is Tim Fouts. The Beatboxer is Adam Rupp who along with his brother Chris Rupp started the group in Minnesota. Chris left to do things on his own. The other members are Adam Chance who most just say Chance to distinguish from Adam Rupp. The other 2 are Rob and Austin who have similar but different voices. A great next song would be The Boyz ii Men song End Of The Road. They also have a number of Christmas & religious songs. There is also an interesting video of Adam Rupp or Home Free drum solo. Either will bring it up. He isn't finished until credits roll. 🎶👱‍♀️👗👠👠💓

    You need to watch Adam Rupp's drum solo!!!!! He is the beatboxer. Watch it until the end. There is a place where he is taking a bow but it continues and it will blow you away!! Watch God Bless The USA! There are 2 versions of that song, one they are in front of Mount Rushmore (the first and earlier version) and one with Lee Greenwood and military singers from several states and of course Home Free. The group recorded it during the lock down so they were all scattered around the country in different states. It was recorded seperately and put together for the video. It will give you goose bumps!!!

  • @roguemerlin1969
    @roguemerlin1969 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Two songs I would like to see your reactions to are from The Voice competition. First, something other than country would be their version of Pretty Woman, a song everyone knows, featuring Austin, the tenor. Second, something from their country roots, Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash. If you do Ring of Fire, please do the one from the Voice which features Tim Foust, the bass. For another look at their versatility try End of the Road by Boyz to Men. They have so many videos out there it is hard to pick a favorite. A newer one is When a Man Loves a Woman with Austin again in the lead. Another of their newer releases is Crazy by Patsy Cline. Can you tell I'm a Home Fry which is what their fans call themselves.

You won’t believe what you are hearing. Home Free is my favorite group , but Marcelito is my favorite solo artist. Please react soon, you will love it! Thanks! 👍

    Okay, that was one of their serious numbers and they are great and I totally love them (this song was my intro to Home Free) but I'm going to recommend several songs that shows the funnier and goofier side of their great talent. Their beatboxer is Adam Rupp, their last remaining founding member. Watch HF Drum Solo to see why he's considered one of the best in the world. In Guilty Pleasures he's more on the singing side than the beatboxing as each member gets their time in the spotlight...sort of. (The guy in the cowboy hat is Adam's brother Chris. Chance joined up when he left to go solo.) Champagne Taste On a Beer Budget was written by Tim Foust the bass singer and is a lot of fun. (Yes, that's Avi from PTX.) Full of Cheer was also written by Tim and kind of follows up on Champagne Taste if you think about it. There are just so many great songs by Home Free, but I'm gonna stop here.
