I loved home free! I’ve already learned so much! I can’t believe they’ve been a group for 20 years!! What song should i listen to next??

[thaiseathaydesantos]

I think you missed one impressive thing: right after the bass sang his line, he sang the same line again, but one octave lower. A lot of people miss it because it doesn't sound human.
His name is Tim Foust and he actually broke my subwoofer with Folsom Prison Blues.

*Grabs popcorn* "Here we see the birth of another Home Fry."

[timothygarycarolus]

Who came here to see her reaction to Tim Foust? 🤔

[lancelittrell]

Nobody ever mentions Home Free's cover of Seven Bridges Road. Beautiful harmonies.

[arkieguy]

In the opening scene, the members are:

Front Left - Rob Lundquist - tenor
Front Center - Austin Brown - tenor (super highs)
Front Right - Tim Foust - basso profundo (5 octave range)
Back Left - Adam Chance - baritone
Back Right - Adam Rupp - beatboxer

Occasionally Tim will take a higher part and Adam Chance will take over the base line. They do some amazing stuff.

[unluckydiablo]

First 3 seconds "OMG that bass!". *Grabs popcorn*

And welcome to the rabbit hole that is home free, it's very deep, and VERY fun.

[todderickson]

Danielle, with all the fantastic music you react to, I was very surprised to find out that you hadn't experienced my favorite acapella group yet! Home Free is phenomenal!! Probably because they started in my state of Minnesota. 😁 Okay, here is a group primer:
Rob Lundquist (far left): smooooth tenor vocals and a constant source of humor.
Adam Chance (back left): versatile baritone/bass who takes over the bass part when Tim takes the lead. Goes by Chance to avoid confusion with the other Adam. He was doing the "mouth harp" on this.
Austin Brown (middle): beautiful soaring tenor vocals and adds a few little yodels on certain songs.
Adam Rupp (back right): the walking percussion machine who did the "harmonica" on this. Pretty sure he's not human.
Tim Foust (far right): bass with an incredible range. His lowest notes come from the mines of Moria.
Also, on some older videos, you will see a gentleman who's not in this (usually wearing a cowboy hat); that's Chris Rupp, Adam's brother, who left a few years ago to pursue a solo career and was replaced by Chance.
Everything these guys do is gold, and here are my suggestions for moving forward: "How Great Thou Art" and "Helplessly Hoping" (sheer vocal perfection), "All About That Bass" and "The Butts Medley" (for their hilariously goofy side), "Folsom Prison Blues" (even deeper vocals from Tim and more of Adam's harmonica), "Blue Ain't Your Color" (shows their genre versatility), and my favorite Home Free song, "Do You Hear What I Hear?"
You'd better get to work, my friend; the rabbit hole is deep, but oh so magical! 😊

So glad you have added Home Free to the a cappella mix. They are country based but do many other styles, making them uniquely their own. Watch Rob (the 2nd tenor to sing here) let go in “End of the Road”. I love the harmonies in “Helplessly Hoping”. And one of their most breathtaking videos is their version of “How Great Thou Art”. Thanks for your reaction

[markhilliard]

Adam Rupp the Beatboxer I like to say must have swallowed a complete drum kit as a child and it's been trying to escape ever since.. you can see him do complete drum solos on line...he is one of the most talented beat boxers perferming today!! So glad you enjoyed this group!!

[sledgehammerk]

Elvira is one of my favorite songs that Home Free has done. They collaborated with The Oak Ridge Boys, so it's kind of new school meets old school in one song :)

[randallshuck]

Pretty deep rabbit hole. Enjoy the trip. One other selection by them is their cover of "In the blood", very good.

[ModoTronic]

I know this was years ago but did you notice after the bass guy sings his part and they all chime in, he goes an octive lower.

[dalepettiner]

"Ring of Fire", "Helplessly Hoping", "In the Blood", "Crazy", "My Church" all really showcase the talents (not to mention the Christmas songs too.

[m.b.]

1st singer/pretty-boy high tenor: Austin Brown. 2nd singer/bearded teddy-bear anchor tenor: Rob Lundquist. Beat-boxer/harmonica mimic: Adam Rupp, one of the original founders. Least obvious singer/neat beard, baritone-bass: Adam Chance, usually referred to as "Chance" to avoid getting him mixed up with beat-boxer Adam. He does a lot of low-profile things in this particular song--but he's incredible in his own right. Get used to the Boys sharing the spotlight and letting each person strut their stuff regularly. Super Bass: Tim Foust--five octave range, strong in all of them.

All of them are so dratted talented.

[draygontaygen]

Check out Misty Mountains Cold by Peter Hollens and Tim Foust and then Far over the Misty Mountains by Geoff Castellucci.
Tim Foust is the bass from Home Free and Geoff Castellucci is the bass from Voiceplay.
Both Misty Mountains are worth a listen for different reasons.
Hope you enjoy them. 👍🍻😁

How Great Thou Art and Helplessly Hoping (from Crosby, Stills and Nash) are 5 voice, no "percussion" songs.
They do a John Denver song - Take Me Home Country Roads.
Some military tearjerkers - Travelin' Soldier and Go Rest High On That Mountain. Tissues required.
They did a remake of American Pie with Don Mclean. I grew up with this song and was so glad he did it with them.
And an Ed Sheeran song - Castle On The Hill.
They also did a tik-tok style Sea Shanty Medley. They were born to do these songs.

It's not one of their big songs, but I like Moonshine.
They do a few Christmas songs, including an excellent "Do You Hear What I Hear".
Dive Bar Saints is an original contemporary country song.

The first vocalist is Austin, high tenor, he can use the twang but he has gorgeous high notes as well.

The second vocalist was Rob, tenor, He has a lot of soul and can do insane runs and also is an underrated whistler in some of their songs.

The Bass is Tim. He can go crazy low and actually taught Avi and Geoff how to go lower with the growl technique. He also has a 5 octave range.

The beatboxer is Adam. He is a human drum kit and can make more sounds than you can imagine.

Chance is the baritone. He can use overtone singing techniques like you heard here with his jaw harp impression throughout the song. He can also cover bass whenever Tim takes the lead and has a general great rolling baritone sound as well.

Just an FYI on the Beatboxer, Adam "The Freak of Nature" Rupp ... he was twice voted "Best All Around Beatboxer" by his Peers at the World Beatboxing Expo"

[stevekulich]

All the back ground sounds are done by the singers, Harmonica, drums and other sounds. No Good job hon.
