You might appreciate Rob and Austin singing Nessun Dorma.

When the pandemic hit, they each ordered home equipment so that they could continue putting out music from their homes. My favorite album of theirs is the Sounds of Lockdown one, where they put all their remotely made music together. Some of my favorite songs came out of that time period.

How good are these guys? The fun & energy in this is infectious. This was done during quarantine so none of the guys were even together. The editing of this was great & was done in the Tik Tok style. Love all the guys parts, with Tim's rumbling bass underlying it all. And Adam's beatboxing is phenomenal as always including sea swells & castanets. Amazing how he increased the tempo from one song to another.

Yet, HF does this on stage and makes it as dynamic. Love your smile as it shows us you're enjoying this. Each member brings something extraordinary to this performance.

Tim's bass gets me every time. That guy bottoms out in the boots with that low bass.

I think you'd enjoy listening to a pretty famous violinist, who is also an excellent dancer (she came in 2nd place in the 25th season of Dancing with the Stars) who plays while doing it, Lindsey Stirling. The song I'd suggest starting with would be either Shatter Me, with Lzzy Hale from Halestorm as the vocalist, or one of her first, if not her first song, Crystallize. That one is a full instrumental song. I hope you enjoy it.

Yep, during the pandemic. I'm glad you caught the castanet that Adam is doing. A lot of people don't.

[HennyvanderMeer]

Yes this was done during the pandemic!

Absolutely done during the pandemic. Each member did his part at home.
You mentioned the clarity of Tim’s voice. He can ACTUALLY SING with a melody, and understandable diction, even adding a vibrato, at sound-system destroying lows. Many other bass singers become rather muddy as they go for those lows, and are singled out to show a single “gimmicky” bass note to impress.
Adam Rupp, the “Beat Boxer” …. well he’s just not human!
If Tim impresses you, check his cover single of “Will you still love me/ Stay” mashup. Tim has a 5+ octave range, and sings ALL parts. Using multiple tracks of himself, he is the only voice and sound that you hear!

[Indigo_moon]

Did you notice the sound of waves that Adam was doing? It's all in the details with him.... and the rest of them too for that matter. Thx for another HF video!

[nsir]

great reaction...theur new cover is good its called delta dawn...tim rattles things ..lol

[cindyknudson]

Their latest release is _Give Me A Sign_

[leslieoneal]

Adam with those castanets and the sea spray hitting the ship as it cuts through the water just blows me away! The toms are amazing, too! 😳🤯👍💕🔥 The harmonies from these guys is definitely the best in the business. Sheesh 🎶❤

[theironherder]

Finally, after hearing many different reactors, someone gives proper respect and appreciation for Adam Rupp's castenets. Emblematic of the superb reaction and analysis. Thank you.

[vickiadkins]

Home Free ! The best of the best!! Only band I listen to!!

[patriciavernon]

Die hard Home Fry here and new subscriber! I am loving your reactions! When they do 5 part harmonies, no beatboxing (the beat boxer Adam has a wonderful voice as well), like Helplessly Hoping, Brothers in Arms, Auld Lang Syne and How Great Thou Art to name a few, they are magical! Have a great day! 😀❤️

[lindanearing]

The talent and skills of Home Free are almost supernatural. They sound phenomenal every time out of the gate. Beat boxing wasn't on my radar until I discovered these guys and now I find myself listening specifically for Adam's performances. There are many video's on You Tube of the drum solos he does at every concert. The one that really showcases his raw talent and skill is the one from 2015 (red plaid shirt). He's only gotten better since then. I enjoyed your reaction, it was great!

[ElizabethRoss-ujrl]

The tight harmonies and timing are even more amazing when you realize they were not physically together -- in Tennessee, Minnesota and California, to be specific! It's also a testament to their producers. The quarantine songs are incredible. Your reactions and observations were great, thanks for this one.

[babyfry]

Yes, this was during Covid so they weren’t together. Tim didn’t move much as he was standing in a boat. Ha! Chance (first singer) is a fan of sea shanties and brought the idea to the boys. You’re one of the first reactors to know those were castanets Adam was doing. Amazing isn’t it?! The boys really did a lot of songs during the pandemic that saved me. They really kept the content up. To see them at their homes you could try Sunday Best. It shows some of their partners, kids and animals. Lots of fun! If you like bass, try I Can’t Outrun You, Brothers in Arms, Hillbilly Bone. Enjoy!
