Tim’s range: lol, you ain’t heard nothin’ yet! Amazement awaits.

[justann]

Your “He has range??!!” Had me chuckling 😄 ‘cause sweetie you ain’t heard nothing yet!

Edited for a breakdown of the group.
Official version:
Beatboxer: Adam Rupp
High tenor: Austin Brown
Lead tenor: Rob Lundquist
Baritone/bass: Adam Chance (goes by Chance to avoid confusion)
Bass: Tim Foust

However… all five of them can beatbox to some degree
All five can sing in tenor range
At least three can sing baritone
And at least two can sing bass

[erichodges]

Adam Rupp (beat boxer/tenor) started the group in 2000 with his brother Chris Rupp (baritone) who left the group in 2016. Rob Lundquist (sweet tenor/beard & glasses) joined the group in 2008. Austin Brown (high tenor) and Tim Foust (bass with a 5 octave range) both joined the group in 2012. Adam Chance (hat guy/baritone-bass/goes by Chance since there was already an Adam) joined the group in 2016.
Love your reactions❤

You can listen to Mayday. You've already witnessed Tim Foust"s incredible vocal range which is also featured in Mayday.
This rendition really gives all five guys and Don a chance to shine. Good choice. Thanks for this one.
Do You Hear What I Hear is tremendous.
Take care

The song is a to three musicians that died in a plane wreck on February 3, 1959 those killed were Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, and J.P. Richardson (The Big Bopper). The day the music died.. Buddy Holly was just recently married (the widowed bride).. that's why the song "gets dark" as you mentioned..

[DeLee]

Saw the surprise when Tim started singing. He sings more then bass.

[vegaswillie]

I think you're ready for the Home Free cover of Boyz 2 Men
"End of the Road". Please put your seat belts on for this one.

[ericdonohue]

Elvira with The Oak Ridge Boys is one that I enjoyed.

Tim is a true basso profundo, but has a 5+ octave range (nearly 6..). Chance takes the bass line when he has lead. Don asked Home Free to do this collab with him for the song's 50th anniversary.

[stephenhanft]

Home Free and Don McLean recorded this for the 50th Anniversary tribute to Don's "American Pie". This song is one of the great masterpieces of the rock era and Home Free really did justice to this iconic classic.

[dagmar.]

Love this remake of this classic song. Can't believe it came out 50 years ago. Don McLean still has a good voice for his age. And love hearing all the guys take a turn in a verse. Poor Adam had to do such a long stretch of beatboxing but he nailed it. Think the song is about 8 min. long. Don McLean received his Hollywood Star on the Walk of Fame recently & Home Free was invited to sing a portion of this song there. What an honor for them.
"American Pie" pays tribute to the loss of 3 legends who died so young (Buddy Holly, Richie Valens & The Big Bopper). A lot of references in the song are made to many artists from the early days of music including Elvis, Janis Joplin, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Byrds & others.

"Go rest high on that mountain" with a patriotic video will bring tears to your eyes. God bless the USA with Homefree, Lee Greenwood, and the US Air Force Singing Sergeants. Both are well worth reacting to.

[chrisbateman]

I knew you'd love this version! Everyone was represented in this (Don, followed by Adam Chance (who does bass when Tim is singing solos), followed by Austin, followed by Rob, followed by Tim, with Don wrapping it up... all kept in time by the human drum kit, Adam Rupp - who also has an amazing tenor voice). One of the reasons for the "boxes" was that this was made during the pandemic and they were all separate. Another suggestion is Home Free's cover of the Crosby, Stills & Nash song "Helplessly Hoping". And to really get an example of Tim's 5 octave range, check out his solo of the Frankie Valley song "Will You Still Love Me / Stay"... you WILL be blown away! for Home Fee Christmas, I highly recommend "Mary Did You Know".

[jounik]

Home Free clips do have a way of leaving one in a good mood.

For Christmas, Snow Globe is a must.

[patrickhumphreys]

Fantastic reaction ladies Don Mclain had asked Home Free to do this for the 50th anniversary of his song and even had them perform at his star celebration on the walk of fame.

[dianel]

I loved your facial expressions. Not over the top. I saw it in the eyes 👀 when Tim started singing his verse. You had to control that urge to pause & exclaim “What?!” They all have amazing voices & vocal ranges but TIM 🤯. Once you listen to HF, you’re hooked.

[andreahamilton]

I came across Home Free two years ago. I have been hooked since. They are the best a cappella group out there in my opinion.

[m.harrison]

Home Free doesn’t do covers, they do UPGRADES!! The beat boxer is Adam Rupp, he has won the world wide competition twice, he’s from Minnesota. Adam Chance (goes by “Chance” for less confusion), he’s the baritone/bass & covers bass when Tim sings lead, he’s the guy in the hat & he’s from lower Alabama. Austin Brown the is red head high tenor & he’s from southern Georgia but he was trained & can sing without his “twang”, when he needs to. Tim Foust is the super bassman, but has a 5 octave range & he is from southeast Texas. Rob Lundquist (glasses & beard) is the lead tenor and he is from Minnesota too. The guys do their own original songs besides covers. Tim & Austin write quite a few songs in collaboration with other friends. Their Christmas songs are not to be missed! You should check them out!!

[michaelbush]

If you want to hear tim's range. You should check out his solo song will you still love me tomorrow/stay

[cattsunn]

Do you hear what I hear is an awesome one for Christmas. It has Chris their founder in it. He is Adam (beatboxers) brother and Chance took his place when he left the group. Adam arranged this song and it was filmed at an Ice Castle in Minnesota where Adam, Chris and Rob(beard & glasses) are from. You will love it. Thanks, Ladies!
