Well... I am a Home Fry, also a patrion supporter.I always watch for new content. Not always a fan of every song they do but appreciate their spin on each project 😏
Welcome to Home Free, a once in a generation talent. They have over 250 songs from all genres, and they don't do covers- they do upgrades. If you do more Home Free, the Home Fries will support you. Appreciate HF while you can!
Yes, there's no instrument, and what he was doing the beatboxer was what we call a NoMonica . They consider themselves a country acapella group, but they sing any type of song from country to rap to opera❤😊
"What have we found?" Only the best a cappella group out there. Five supremely talented individuals who blend perfectly. And, you are correct, there are no instruments. They have a very deep and varied catalog. Everything from country to R&B to pop to sacred to opera (from the 2 tenors). Really, you could go anywhere next and not go wrong. But I would recommend their recent cover of Stand By Me or their original Playing With Fire. Enjoy the Home Free party!
Home Free is incredible. Everything they do is great. And although they are a Country A-cappela group, they can really sing all genres. They really all have great voices with their own specialties. Even Adam Rupp who started the group with his brother Chris Rupp. Chris left the group in 2016 to go solo but also to start other projects with his sister, among others. Adam Rupp-Beatboxer but is actually an inhuman freaking good mouth artist. Tim Foust- Deep bass but also as a tenor and everything in between is possible. Austin Brown-High tenor with his great runs and high notes. Rob Lundquist (beard and glasses)-Tenor, with a voice like velvet and so much soul. Adam Chance (back left, who is called Chance) - Baritone/ Bass, a voice so smooth and sexy. And who here also makes the Jaw harp sound. There is no permanent lead singer in Home Free. They look at every song whose voice suits it best, the best harmony, no egos, no rivalries, great personalities etc. Besides, they can all beatbox (see their live performance 9to5). .. This is one of the many covers they do in addition to various originals, and each one is just amazing. Take the time to discover Home Free because it will be a great tour. For me they are number 1 A-Cappella group
You have just been introduced to the best a cappella group out there. These guys are all so talented. They lean towards country but they can do any genre. They all can take the lead depending on whos voice is best for the song. They are known for their tight harmonies. Tim Foust is one of the best bass singers out there with a 5 octave range & their beatboxer vocal percussionist Adam Rupp can simulate any sound. Drummers have often commented on how realistic his drum sounds are. This song is very old & is done in the bluegrass country style. It was used in the movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" starring George Clooney. Some of my favorites are "Take Me Home Country Roads", "In The Blood", "Ring Of Fire", "Blue Ain't Your Color", "How Great Thou Art", "Elvira", "Hillbilly Bone", "American Pie", "Brother In Arms", "One Man Band", "Listen To The Music", "Sea Shanty Medley", Skull & Bones" etc.
Adam Rupp is their beat boxer...He is a world champion...you might want to check out ADAM RUPP DRUM SOLO...the one in red plaid shirt!!!you will be amazed!❤
Adam has never competed in any competitions but is widely regarded as an exceptional beatboxer. The realism of his drum sounds is absolutely astounding. @minnieduncan5327
Great Reaction!! Welcome to Home Free rabbit hole. The group started in 2001 by brothers Chris and Adam Rupp They won The Sing Off season 4 2013 that's where they became very popular. They are the only country A Capella ( all vocals no instruments)group but they are honestly do so so much more than just country music they can sing any genre and they do. There is no Lead singer in the group.They each ( except Adam )sing the song and who’s ever voice or voices sound right for the song gets the lead unless is a bass/ baritone song then that’s Tim or Chance.A lot of time they each have a part in the song. Fans of Home Free are known as Home Fries and are very loyal to the guys. Adam Rupp: Beatboxer Extraordinaire can make any sound imaginable (A whole drum kit, harmonica (his Nomonica we call it )plane flyovers, trains, castanets, bugs ,birds etc).Co founder from Mankato Minnesota. Rob Lundquist :Lead tenor(beard and glasses) Very soulful voice and master whistler from Minneapolis,Minnesota Tim Foust :Bass (had long dark hair now short with grey ) 5+ octave range can go so low he blows speakers or sky high from Nederland,Texas Austin Brown:High Tenor ( Long wavy hair )Voice of an angel from Tifton Georgia.He will be leaving the group in the fall. Adam Chance(Aka Chance):Baritone/Bass Deep,rich voice(Does the juice harp sound in Man Of Constant Sorrow) has short dark hair short beard from Baldwin County,Alabama.Replaced Chris Rupp ( Adams Brother and co founder in 2016) They have collaborated with many singers and legends Don McLean:American Pie Oak Ridge Boys:Elvira Kenny Rodgers:Children Go Where I Send Thee (Please watch the end message) Billy Gilman:One Voice Alabama:Christmas In Dixie Mark Wills:Don’t Laugh At Me ( important message at the end ) Lee Greenwood & US Airforce Band:God Bless The USA Any many many more. They have 3 amazing songwriters in the group Tim,Austin and Chance so they have a very large playlist of covers and original songs End of the Road (Boyz 2 Men cover ) When A Loves A Woman Helplessly Hoping (5 part harmony masterpiece ) Unchained Melody Butts Medley/ Remix Listen To The Music Can’t Outrun You Brothers In Arms Stargazer Trilogy( All Originals written by Austin) Give Me A Sign ( Chapter 1) Stargazer Lilies( Chapter 2) MR ( mister) (Chapter 3) Skull And Bones ( original written by Chance for Ubisoft new video game Skull And Bones) Might As Well Be Me ( Original) Playing With Fire ( Original) Remember My Name (Original) Oh Pretty Woman Life Is A Highway Stand By Me Cruise I Want Crazy Colder Weather Ring Of Fire ( releasing on Monday) Mayday(DON’T WATCH TILL YOU ARE VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE GROUP AND THEIR RANGES ) There's not a song that you pick from their 200+ catalog that is bad I haven't found one yet. They are just funny, down to earth, humble nice guys.They are the best A Cappella group there is Sorry for the long read 🍟😊
You really need to get your start date RIGHT they started in 2000 NOT 2001 last year 2023 was 23 yrs go listen to the video from Chris Rupp doing a video of When Home Fries Started. You think he would know since He Started the group .
@@Cat-fi4ie I think you need to get your facts straight before commenting In January of 2001, 3 friends from High School got together to form a new a cappella group that they hoped would one day change music for all time. The History of Home Free - Episode 1 (ft Adam, Chris and Matt) or maybe this Home Free was originally formed in January 2001 by Chris Rupp, Adam Rupp and Matt Atwood[1] in Mankato, Minnesota, when some of its members were still in their teens.[5] The five founding members were brothers Chris and Adam Rupp, Matt Atwood, Darren Scruggs, and Dan Lemke. They took their name from a boat owned by Atwood's grandfather who helped support the group financially in their early years.[6] The group began as a hobby for the singers, but they gradually grew in experience and popularity. By 2007 they had enough of a following to pursue music full-time. During this period, the Rupp brothers and Atwood formed the core of the group, with Atwood singing lead tenor. Other members of the group came and went. Current member Rob Lundquist, another Minnesotan, joined in 2008.[7]
@@LynnRamsay 🤣🤣 you're WRONG Chris Rupp is the founder of the group 2000. Apparently the information you received is incorrect. If you paid attention into the history of Home Free episode 1. It states that Home Free was CONCEIVED in 2000 and their FIRST talent show was Jan 1st 2001.
ANNNNND here come the Home Fries. Boy are you in for a treat and a lot of new subscribers. Oh, btw I subbed for more Home Free!!! Thanks for reacting to the best a cappella group imo.
Welcome to the world of acapella. This is Home Free, the "country" boys of the Acapella Triumvirate. Enjoy the rabbit hole. The other members of the Triumvirate are Pentatonix, the singers, and VoicePlay the theater kids. Keep on keepin' on, man!
They are so talented. Their catalog has hundreds of songs, many covers as well as originals. Pick your favorite songs and prepare to be amazed. They are just as good live and they have a tour scheduled starting in March. My favorite song of theirs is Take Me Home Country Roads. If they ever use instruments, (rarely,) they will show you.
Home Free is just amazing, they can do everything! I would recommend "Brother", it´s great, it´s funny and you can see their talent. Five extremely talented musicians, and Adam Rupp is the best beat boxer I´ve ever heard. And they are lovely guys!
#HomeFree #ManOfConstantSorrow Seems the fish is nibbling..time to set the hook 🤣... 💥... Hillbilly Bone 💥...End Of The Road 💥...Butts Remix/Medley 💥...Sea Shanty...LIVE ! Professional recording 💥... Listen To The Music The list is long and the Home Fries are hungry 😁...keep us well fed and will be standing in line... 🌿🌿🌿
Just subscribed with hopes for more Home Free. They are the best! They do a huge variety of music and each have a very impressive vocal range. They will make you dance, cry and fall out of your seat laughing. They have great personalities and a fantastic sense of humor. Looking forward to more.
You got it! 5 individuals that as a unit, in spite of the fact that each one is a master musician, are truly more than the sum of the parts. Home Free has nearly 190 official videos, they will have a new Ring of Fire one on YT on Monday. Pick any genre, they probably have at least one song from it - except hard metal (and the opera song is only 2 of the 5). Th harmonies are impressive, the arrangements will occasionally stop you in your tracks, the voices are heavenly. Enjoy this dep and wide rabbit hole you have fallen into. We will enjoy watching you discover them.
Home Free is an amazing group. They’re all a cappella so no instruments. They have an amazing beatboxer who was doing drums, harmonica and other sounds. Chance, back left, was doing the mouth harp sound (like a didgeridoo). Tim, the bass, has a 5 octave range so he can sing super low and then sing high as well. All talented men. Great songs. They sing covers but also write and sing their own songs. Chance just wrote a new sea shanty called Skull and Bones for Ubisoft, the game maker. It’s great. Check it out! Tim goes really low in it. 😄😃😍
Subbed for more HF! This is the first vid/song of theirs I heard as well about 4 years ago. I was hooked and I've since seen them live 3 times. As other Home Fries have already said in the comments, they don't do covers, they do upgrades, while maintaining utmost respect for the original artist. They also have many originals themselves, which are fantastic. What an amazing group of guys! Keep em comin! #HomeFree
Buckle up and sit back, keep your headphones at ready. Your ride will take a few turns to the left and to the right, beware of the hills and drop offs. Enjoy your trip, Oh one more thing, these guys are the best of the best so expect to be blown away. I could give you a list but hey, Just jump in the hole and hold on.
And...another one falls down the rabbit hole. You are so doomed. We’ll save you a chair. You’re about to be buried in Home Fries. Brace yourself. Home Free is the only country a capella group out there, but they can - and do - sing every genre. And they have no lead singer. Every one of these men can take the lead, and they pick the lead for each song by who does it the most justice. During quarantine, they kept all us Home Fries sane by dropping new videos every couple of weeks while they were scattered across the country. God bless ‘em. All the men can beat box, but Adam is in a league of his own. He’s a world-class vocal percussionist and there’re good reasons he’s called a “Freak of Nature” and “the man who swallowed a drum kit.” For more of Adam’s incredible beat boxing, check out Sea Shanty medley (the man makes castanets, for Pete’s sake), his no-monica solo on Working For A Living and Ain’t Going Down Til The Sun Comes Up (that video is on Facebook), Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer (sleigh bells? seriously?) or his drum solos. For more of Tim’s seismic basso profundo, listen to Brothers In Arms, Misty Mountains (his collaboration with Peter Hollens), Folsom Prison Blues, or Ring Of Fire (the Sing Off version). This man’s range is incredible. You won’t want to miss his 5-octave run in 5 seconds in “Do You Hear What I Hear?” For Chance’s smooth baritone/bass, check out Skull & Bones, Down to the Honky Tonk, Brothers In Arms, Cover Me Up, I Can’t Outrun You, and Folsom Prison Blues. (Awesome.. basso profundo and a baritone/bass in the same group.) FYI, Chance is singing (throat singing) the jaw harp sounds - without the jaw harp - in Man Of Constant Sorrow. For Rob’s soulful tenor, check out End of the Road, Blue Ain’t Your Color, or Bless The Broken Road. (Blue-eyed soul is in good hands with The Beard.) One Home Fry has described him as the vocal equivalent of a Swiss Army knife because of his versatility. Just wait until you hear him whistle! For Austin’s soaring tenor, check out Crazy, Moonshine, When A Man Loves a Woman, or Bring Him Home. (But bolt down your chair ‘cause he’ll sing you right out of it.) For their humor, check out Butts Remix, Working For A Living, Life Is A Highway, Between A Rock And A Heartache, Make You Feel My Love, Brother, and Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget (Tim wrote the worst country song he could think of, and it remains one of their most requested.) A word about “Brother” - if you want to hear the lyrics, you’re going to have to listen with your eyes closed, ‘cause otherwise you’ll never get past the humor of the video to actually hear what they’re singing. For their amazing arrangement skills, check out Do You Hear What I Hear. (Adam’s arrangement. Nothing else like it.) For their tight harmonies, check out Helplessly Hoping, How Great Thou Art, Brothers In Arms, or Auld Lang Syne. For their mashups, check out Thinking Out Loud/Let’s Get It On, Fishing in the Dark/Boondocks, Country Fried Pop, or Woman, Amen/Female. The Home Free men are masters of collaborations. They put the spotlight on their collaborator, supporting them with wonderful vocals and amazing harmonies. Check out God Bless the USA with Lee Greenwood, American Pie with Don McLean, Elvira with The Oak Ridge Boys, Children Go Where I Send Thee with the late Kenny Rogers, Don’t Laugh At Me with Mark Wills, Christmas In Dixie with Alabama, Delta Dawn with Brooke Eden, or Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For with Peter Hollens. Get at least five videos under your belt and then listen to Mayday - the official video. After Mayday, you’ll be ready for Tim and Austin doing My Maria or Tim’s mashup of Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay. Then, when you come up for air, check out Rob’s and Austin’s “Two Country Singers Try Singing Opera.” You’ll need smelling salts after that one. Don’t miss their official videos. The Home Free men will often do a straight, gorgeous vocal performance, but they’ll add elements of humor to the video that will leave you chuckling or even laughing out loud. (Folsom Prison Blues, Between A Rock And A Heartache, Make You Feel My Love, Working For A Living, Brother, Life Is A Highway). And God help you when you get hit with the Home Free Curse. They’ll cover a song you absolutely cannot stand and make you like it against your will. I’d been hit by the curse four times before I gave up and quit counting. I’m not the only victim of the Home Free Curse, either. Although their covers are amazing, don’t miss their original compositions. They range from the the poignant (So Long Dixie) to the patriotic (Land Of the Free). These include Dive Bar Saints (one of my favorites), Road Sweet Road, Catch Me If You Can, Give Me A Sign, Lonely Girl’s World, The Stargazer Trilogy, Champagne Taste On A Beer Budget, Love Me Like That, Skull And Bones, and many, many more. Their synergy is phenomenal. Each is an artist in his own right, but man - when they sing together, magic happens. Wicked talent polished by decades of hard work. (Unchained Melody, Castle On The Hill, Seven Bridges Road, Only In America) To paraphrase another Home Fry, “They don’t just own a cover, they upgrade it.” You are doomed, Home Fry. Bring ketchup.
Great summary and suggestions! My only comment would be to wait on Mayday until you're 10-15 songs deep and know each of the guys by name and what they can do. Same goes for Tim's solo work, please wait. You will understand after Mayday and thank us then. 🙂
No harmonica, just an insanely talented beat boxer, Adam Rupp. This group doesn't just do covers, they do upgrades. I think you might enjoy the video called "Adam Rupp drum solo".
That was the first song I heard by them, too. It kinds feels like you are being punked at first, but no, there are no instruments at all. They call themselves a vocal band. I have tickets to see them live in April for the first time and am so excited! I am subscribing in hopes of more Home Free. Try Listen to the Music!
New subscriber. Great reaction, too! I love it when people discover Home Free. They are a freakishly talented group of fellas that excel in all music genres. They can make you laugh sometimes, they can make you cry sometimes but they always impress. Here's a cheat sheet on the group: Adam Rupp, co-founder of HF and the awesome beatboxer. Tim Foust, bass. He has a five-octave range. Rob Lundquist (glasses and beard) Tenor Harmony. Austin Brown, Lead Tenor. Adam Chance, Baritone ( goes by Chance). Chance replaced Chris Rupp (co-founder) who left in 2016. Take Me Home Country Roads is phenomenal but you might also want to check out Dreamer, When A Man Loves A Woman, End Of The Road, One Man Band, American Pie featuring Don McLean, I Swear, Blue Ain't Your Color, Dive Bar Saints, The Driver, Crazy and Folsom Prison Blues. For some funny ones: Butts Medley, All About That Bass, Champagne Taste, Hillbilly Bone and Ray Stevens' Mississippi Squirrel Revival. For some serious ones: How Great Thou Art, Go Rest High On That Mountain. When you are familiar with all the boys and their vocal roles, do Mayday. And last but not least, Brothers In Arms. It is haunting and beautiful. They have recently released several new songs that you will want to check out. Unchained Melody, Listen to the Music, Brother and Stargazer Lilies trilogy: Give Me A Sign, Stargazer Lilies and Mr. ...Their latest releases are Might As Well Be Me, Playing With Fire, Remember My Name, Oh, Pretty Woman, Cruise, Stand By Me, Colder Weather and Life is a Highway. To switch it up..try Two Country Singers try singing Opera. Adam Chance just wrote the theme song to Ubisoft's new Pirate themed video game, Skull and Bones and Home Free performs it. Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole!
The twangy mouth harp sound you hear at the beginning and end (and throughout the song) is their baritone Adam Chance (Chance) the last guy shown in the video. They can all beatbox to a certain extent but Adam Rupp is their epic main beatboxer. If there's any physical instruments used you'll see them. It's very rare that they use them though. Mostly they're used in collaboration with other non-acapella singers. I can only think of 2 or 3 songs where it's just the guys and they use instruments.
The Butts Medley....Helplessly Hoping.... Three of them write songs and Tim Faust has a soly album where he sings all the harmonies..truly SOLO.. I recommend Will You Still Love Me/ Stay
First time reactions always make me laugh at Adam Rupp playing the nomonica. Thats right that is what he calls it. You have just fallen down the Home Free rabbit hole. Next try an original written by Austin Brown called "Playing with fire". The do a lot of covers, but their origionals are wonderful too. keep listening and soon You will be a Home Fry.
Their versions Unchained Melody and How Great Thou Art are beautiful! You should also check out Pentatonix- no instruments and they are incredible as well. I love your reactions! 💜
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole. These boys are the best Acapella group. These boys are so talented and have a multitude of songs and videos. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Austin the high tenor started the song then Rob the tenor and Tim with the low bass voice. Adam the beatboxer and Chance did the mouth harp. Home Free is my favorite group. No you not wrong no instruments. I like your reactions to Home Free. They are great. 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
Welcome to the rabbit hole. If you are asking, "Who are these guys?", a great video to react to is their cover of the 1980's Huey Lewis hit "Workin' For A Livin'". The video introduces all of them by name at the beginning. It's also a totally different type of song and video that shows another side of them both musically and personality-wise. It has an even more amazing "nomonica" solo from Adam Rupp (the beatboxer). Of course, there's all sorts of stuff that other will recommend as well. One sign of a talented group is that almost every commenter will recommend a different song to check out.
Home Free decribes itself as a country acapella band, but they do many other things as well. You cannot pin them down to one genre. There is no lead singer. They either take different verses as they did here or pick the member whose voice best fits the song. So here are the guys and a recommendation that features each of them as the lead: Front row left to right: Rob Lundquist - lead tenor - smooth voice with a lot of soul - End of the Road Austin Brown = high tenor - incredibly strong and flexible voice - When a Man Loves a Woman Tim Foust = Bass = five octave range and "plays" the bass guitar - Ring of Fire (new version being released next week) Back row left to right: Adam Chance (aka Chance) - rich baritone w/ 3 octave range - Cover me Up Adam Rupp - beatboxer extraordinaire - beat box solo, Listen to the Music
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole. It runs very deep. These guys are so extremely talented. Adam the Beat Boxer is insane, He is a championship beat boxer. They each have unique voices that blend so well together. Keep listening to Home Free you will be glad you did. Love your reaction! I subscribed! ♥
The drums, harmonica, and various other sounds come from the beatboxer, Adam Rupp. The mouth organ/jew harp/jaw harp sound is created by Adam Chance, in the back with the orangish colored hat. He uses throat singing techniques and tongue movements to create the 'twangy' sounds. All the guys can beatbox at least a little. Welcome to the Home Free fandom rabbit hole. We call ourselves Home Fries.
Welcome to the family of Home Fries 🍟 the Home Free fans. Unfortunately they just announced that the first man you saw singing Austin Brown tenor 1 will be leaving the group. He wants to spend more time at home and start a family. Home Free tours a lot. But as of right now. Home Free is Austin Brown tenor 1 Rob Lundquist tenor 2 Adam Chance Baritone Tim Foust Bass Adam Rupp Beatboxer
Warning: Home Free is highly addictive. They're all vocal chameleons, 3 of them are song writers so there are lots of originals as well as covers. They sing (and write) in almost every genre and they each have channel(s) of their own. This song was originally published in 1913 and later covered by Bob Dylan & Joan Baez among others.
Welcome to the homefree rabbit whole. If you like this video remember that all the instruments you think you hear are all done by beatboxer. Also this very rarely use instruments. Welcome the first homefree video for most homefries and homefries is worldwide what us homefree fans are called and welcome to Adam's No-Monica If you some good things to watch go check out Adam Rupp's Drum Solo he does at homefree concerts. Fans have taken videos now and over the years at their shows that are on youtube which a homefree concert is a party not a concert and their covers are upgrades.
Fun to watch a reactor discovering something so out of their wheelhouse.⬅ Note that there were two beatboxers here. Adam Rupp ("Adam") is their main beatboxer, and he was doing percussion and the "no-monica". Adam Chance ("Chance") typically sings, but here he was doing the simulated jaw harp throughout. (You heard it somehow as Gregorian Chant, other reactors think it is maybe a digeridoo.)⬅ My other favorite song of theirs is a collaboration they did two years ago on the 50th anniversary of _American Pie,_ with its original artist, Don Mclean.
The initial sound is a beatbox version of a "jaw harp" and when I first heard it I thought diggerridoo. It was Adam Chance making that noise, not the primary beat boxer Adam Rupp who you saw in the white tank top. He plays the NO monica. I think he's done video tutorials on how to do it.
@GOnABeat, new Sub - here for your journey with #HomeFree! This was a great first reaction!! I've been following them since The Sing Off when they won season 4, have seen them in concert twice here in Canada, and can guarantee they will have you smiling, laughing and sometimes crying. They call themselves a Vocal Band, and as you've already seen by your first reaction, they somehow manage to make a cappella sound rich and full of "instruments." Some favourite upgrades to suggest are: I Can't Outrun You - video concept and direction by Chance and pure 5-part harmony Take Me Home Country Roads - a great example of a Home Free upgrade One Man Band - love when the guys share the lead Stand By Me - a classic that truly is a masterclass in arranging, harmonies, layering and dynmaics Castle On the Hill - love the song, the musicality and the video Plus, of course, every other song suggested by my fellow Home Fries - you really can't go wrong! Enjoy and we will be here for it!
Oh yeah, I'm a 65 year old guy who could send you down so many rabbit holes it would melt your headphones. Rock, Country, Vamp Rock, Southern Rock and a little Folk music. I have an ear for good music. I am subscribed and I will offer a few suggestions. But I won't interrupt your Home Free Rabbit hole. 1.Listen to the Music, 2. Sea Shanty Medley, 3. When A Man Loves A Woman, plus many many more. Once I see these 3 I will offer up a new hole for you to think about.
Well you have just opened a can of worms to one of the greatest acapella bands. You're going to find yourself with your mouth open an awful lot reacting to these guys. I saw them live they are amazing 👍🔥🔥
You just listened to the best acapella group out there!! But that’s just my opinion. For a little more country try Hillbilly Bone! And most everyone loves their cover of End of the Road by Boyz to Men. They have hundreds of covers snd original music. Welcome to the rabbit hole. Those who fall in never want to get out. Oh and check out their music video of an original called Skull and Bones. And do their live version of Sea Shantys. They sound fantastic live!!
You are amazing because you say in your facial Expressions Bank me feel like you are feeling well I feel so thanks a lot it’s just so cool I’m 58 I’m a lady just really am I don’t like how you are bringing the song across cause I’ve never had heard it and I put the last month
I always stop and watch someone who has never seen them before. The facial expressions are worth it. 😊😅. So, listen to at least 10 to 15 of their songs, THEN listen to MayDay. Dont just jump to that song.
Great Comments! Welcome to my favorite, most prolific, most diverse, a.cappella band! Home Free has engaged my full attention and admiration for over a decade -- ever since watching them win the Sing Off TV competition in 2013. @lynnramsay8821 has provided all the data you'll need to get a complete overview of who they are and what they do! You can't pick a loser from their huge catalog of wonders, so my advice is to follow the suggestions given by the Home Fries (fans!) in the other comments. Enjoy your journey!
Welcome to the wonderful rabbit hole of Home Free. You'll get lots of love and recommendations from the Home Fries, but here are 2 you might enjoy. Hillbilly Bone ua-cam.com/video/y_7_RTogRBw/v-deo.htmlsi=jLBqyl2P2_p5lHJb Castle on the Hill (live) ua-cam.com/video/MB3vPzYlQ4Q/v-deo.htmlsi=sTPrVFsTIGnwQt5X
I love how you all call yourselves the Home Fries. Here for that 😂
...and the kids are Small Fries
Well... I am a Home Fry, also a patrion supporter.I always watch for new content. Not always a fan of every song they do but appreciate their spin on each project 😏
Their rendition of “Listen to the Music” is epic!
Welcome to Home Free, a once in a generation talent. They have over 250 songs from all genres, and they don't do covers- they do upgrades. If you do more Home Free, the Home Fries will support you. Appreciate HF while you can!
Ok, there cover of Ray Steven's The Mississippi Squirrel Revival was good, but it wasn't an upgrade.
Yes, there's no instrument, and what he was doing the beatboxer was what we call a NoMonica . They consider themselves a country acapella group, but they sing any type of song from country to rap to opera❤😊
"What have we found?" Only the best a cappella group out there. Five supremely talented individuals who blend perfectly. And, you are correct, there are no instruments. They have a very deep and varied catalog. Everything from country to R&B to pop to sacred to opera (from the 2 tenors). Really, you could go anywhere next and not go wrong. But I would recommend their recent cover of Stand By Me or their original Playing With Fire. Enjoy the Home Free party!
Great reaction. You've got one foot in the rabbit hole. Come the rest of the way in.
Home Free is incredible. Everything they do is great. And although they are a Country A-cappela group, they can really sing all genres. They really all have great voices with their own specialties. Even Adam Rupp who started the group with his brother Chris Rupp. Chris left the group in 2016 to go solo but also to start other projects with his sister, among others.
Adam Rupp-Beatboxer but is actually an inhuman freaking good mouth artist.
Tim Foust- Deep bass but also as a tenor and everything in between is possible.
Austin Brown-High tenor with his great runs and high notes.
Rob Lundquist (beard and glasses)-Tenor, with a voice like velvet and so much soul.
Adam Chance (back left, who is called Chance) - Baritone/ Bass, a voice so smooth and sexy. And who here also makes the Jaw harp sound.
There is no permanent lead singer in Home Free. They look at every song whose voice suits it best, the best harmony, no egos, no rivalries, great personalities etc. Besides, they can all beatbox (see their live performance 9to5). ..
This is one of the many covers they do in addition to various originals, and each one is just amazing.
Take the time to discover Home Free because it will be a great tour. For me they are number 1 A-Cappella group
Fun reaction.. I just subscribed for more Home Free. They will amaze you with their talents.
You have just been introduced to the best a cappella group out there. These guys are all so talented. They lean towards country but they can do any genre. They all can take the lead depending on whos voice is best for the song. They are known for their tight harmonies. Tim Foust is one of the best bass singers out there with a 5 octave range & their beatboxer vocal percussionist Adam Rupp can simulate any sound. Drummers have often commented on how realistic his drum sounds are. This song is very old & is done in the bluegrass country style. It was used in the movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" starring George Clooney.
Some of my favorites are "Take Me Home Country Roads", "In The Blood", "Ring Of Fire", "Blue Ain't Your Color", "How Great Thou Art", "Elvira", "Hillbilly Bone", "American Pie", "Brother In Arms", "One Man Band", "Listen To The Music", "Sea Shanty Medley", Skull & Bones" etc.
Adam Rupp is their beat boxer...He is a world champion...you might want to check out ADAM RUPP DRUM SOLO...the one in red plaid shirt!!!you will be amazed!❤
Adam has never competed in any competitions but is widely regarded as an exceptional beatboxer. The realism of his drum sounds is absolutely astounding.
@minnieduncan5327
Home Fry here!
Love #HomeFree
Great Reaction!! Welcome to Home Free rabbit hole.
The group started in 2001 by brothers Chris and Adam Rupp
They won The Sing Off season 4 2013 that's where they became very popular.
They are the only country A Capella ( all vocals no instruments)group but they are honestly do so so much more than just country music they can sing any genre and they do.
There is no Lead singer in the group.They each ( except Adam )sing the song and who’s ever voice or voices sound right for the song gets the lead unless is a bass/ baritone song then that’s Tim or Chance.A lot of time they each have a part in the song.
Fans of Home Free are known as Home Fries and are very loyal to the guys.

They are just funny, down to earth, humble nice guys.They are the best A Cappella group there is
Sorry for the long read 🍟😊
You really need to get your start date RIGHT they started in 2000 NOT 2001 last year 2023 was 23 yrs go listen to the video from Chris Rupp doing a video of When Home Fries Started. You think he would know since He Started the group .
@@Cat-fi4ie I think you need to get your facts straight before commenting In January of 2001, 3 friends from High School got together to form a new a cappella group that they hoped would one day change music for all time.
The History of Home Free - Episode 1 (ft Adam, Chris and Matt)
or maybe this Home Free was originally formed in January 2001 by Chris Rupp, Adam Rupp and Matt Atwood[1] in Mankato, Minnesota, when some of its members were still in their teens.[5] The five founding members were brothers Chris and Adam Rupp, Matt Atwood, Darren Scruggs, and Dan Lemke. They took their name from a boat owned by Atwood's grandfather who helped support the group financially in their early years.[6] The group began as a hobby for the singers, but they gradually grew in experience and popularity. By 2007 they had enough of a following to pursue music full-time. During this period, the Rupp brothers and Atwood formed the core of the group, with Atwood singing lead tenor. Other members of the group came and went. Current member Rob Lundquist, another Minnesotan, joined in 2008.[7]
@@LynnRamsay 🤣🤣 you're WRONG Chris Rupp is the founder of the group 2000. Apparently the information you received is incorrect. If you paid attention into the history of Home Free episode 1. It states that Home Free was CONCEIVED in 2000 and their FIRST talent show was Jan 1st 2001.

@@itzel1735 lol!!!! Yes!!!!
Hahaha. Yes, yes and yes. He's doing that "nomonica" with his vocal chords/mouth. New subscriber and I'll stick around for more HF reactions.
I have subbed for more #HomeFree. If you continue with Home Free reactions, the Home Fries will come!
its become awesome
Welcome to the world of acapella. This is Home Free, the "country" boys of the Acapella Triumvirate. Enjoy the rabbit hole.
The other members of the Triumvirate are Pentatonix, the singers, and VoicePlay the theater kids.
Keep on keepin' on, man!
Was going to say there are three groups to check out, but you said it so much better.
They are so talented. Their catalog has hundreds of songs, many covers as well as originals. Pick your favorite songs and prepare to be amazed. They are just as good live and they have a tour scheduled starting in March. My favorite song of theirs is Take Me Home Country Roads. If they ever use instruments, (rarely,) they will show you.
Home Free is just amazing, they can do everything! I would recommend "Brother", it´s great, it´s funny and you can see their talent. Five extremely talented musicians, and Adam Rupp is the best beat boxer I´ve ever heard. And they are lovely guys!
No no instruments!!! They have many..enjoy going down the rabbit hole❤
#HomeFree #ManOfConstantSorrow
Seems the fish is nibbling..time to set the hook 🤣...
💥... Hillbilly Bone
💥...End Of The Road
💥...Butts Remix/Medley
💥...Sea Shanty...LIVE ! Professional recording
💥... Listen To The Music
The list is long and the Home Fries are hungry 😁...keep us well fed and will be standing in line...
🌿🌿🌿
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole enjoy the ride and us home fries will be with you
Just subscribed with hopes for more Home Free. They are the best! They do a huge variety of music and each have a very impressive vocal range. They will make you dance, cry and fall out of your seat laughing. They have great personalities and a fantastic sense of humor. Looking forward to more.
You got it! 5 individuals that as a unit, in spite of the fact that each one is a master musician, are truly more than the sum of the parts.
Home Free has nearly 190 official videos, they will have a new Ring of Fire one on YT on Monday. Pick any genre, they probably have at least one song from it - except hard metal (and the opera song is only 2 of the 5). Th harmonies are impressive, the arrangements will occasionally stop you in your tracks, the voices are heavenly. Enjoy this dep and wide rabbit hole you have fallen into. We will enjoy watching you discover them.
Subbed for more of HF
Home Free is an amazing group. They’re all a cappella so no instruments. They have an amazing beatboxer who was doing drums, harmonica and other sounds. Chance, back left, was doing the mouth harp sound (like a didgeridoo). Tim, the bass, has a 5 octave range so he can sing super low and then sing high as well. All talented men. Great songs. They sing covers but also write and sing their own songs. Chance just wrote a new sea shanty called Skull and Bones for Ubisoft, the game maker. It’s great. Check it out! Tim goes really low in it. 😄😃😍
Exceptional voices, diverse catalog covering several genres, great guys, fun live performances!
You have just tumbled into the Home Free rabbit hole. It’s deep and wonderful. Welcome!!
Subbed for more HF! This is the first vid/song of theirs I heard as well about 4 years ago. I was hooked and I've since seen them live 3 times.
As other Home Fries have already said in the comments, they don't do covers, they do upgrades, while maintaining utmost respect for the original artist.
They also have many originals themselves, which are fantastic. What an amazing group of guys!
Keep em comin!
#HomeFree
Buckle up and sit back, keep your headphones at ready. Your ride will take a few turns to the left and to the right, beware of the hills and drop offs. Enjoy your trip, Oh one more thing, these guys are the best of the best so expect to be blown away. I could give you a list but hey, Just jump in the hole and hold on.
And...another one falls down the rabbit hole. You are so doomed. We’ll save you a chair.
You’re about to be buried in Home Fries. Brace yourself.
Home Free is the only country a capella group out there, but they can - and do - sing every genre. And they have no lead singer. Every one of these men can take the lead, and they pick the lead for each song by who does it the most justice. During quarantine, they kept all us Home Fries sane by dropping new videos every couple of weeks while they were scattered across the country. God bless ‘em.
All the men can beat box, but Adam is in a league of his own. He’s a world-class vocal percussionist and there’re good reasons he’s called a “Freak of Nature” and “the man who swallowed a drum kit.” For more of Adam’s incredible beat boxing, check out Sea Shanty medley (the man makes castanets, for Pete’s sake), his no-monica solo on Working For A Living and Ain’t Going Down Til The Sun Comes Up (that video is on Facebook), Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer (sleigh bells? seriously?) or his drum solos.
For more of Tim’s seismic basso profundo, listen to Brothers In Arms, Misty Mountains (his collaboration with Peter Hollens), Folsom Prison Blues, or Ring Of Fire (the Sing Off version). This man’s range is incredible. You won’t want to miss his 5-octave run in 5 seconds in “Do You Hear What I Hear?”
For Chance’s smooth baritone/bass, check out Skull & Bones, Down to the Honky Tonk, Brothers In Arms, Cover Me Up, I Can’t Outrun You, and Folsom Prison Blues. (Awesome.. basso profundo and a baritone/bass in the same group.) FYI, Chance is singing (throat singing) the jaw harp sounds - without the jaw harp - in Man Of Constant Sorrow.
For Rob’s soulful tenor, check out End of the Road, Blue Ain’t Your Color, or Bless The Broken Road. (Blue-eyed soul is in good hands with The Beard.) One Home Fry has described him as the vocal equivalent of a Swiss Army knife because of his versatility. Just wait until you hear him whistle!
For Austin’s soaring tenor, check out Crazy, Moonshine, When A Man Loves a Woman, or Bring Him Home. (But bolt down your chair ‘cause he’ll sing you right out of it.)
For their humor, check out Butts Remix, Working For A Living, Life Is A Highway, Between A Rock And A Heartache, Make You Feel My Love, Brother, and Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget (Tim wrote the worst country song he could think of, and it remains one of their most requested.) A word about “Brother” - if you want to hear the lyrics, you’re going to have to listen with your eyes closed, ‘cause otherwise you’ll never get past the humor of the video to actually hear what they’re singing.
For their amazing arrangement skills, check out Do You Hear What I Hear. (Adam’s arrangement. Nothing else like it.)
For their tight harmonies, check out Helplessly Hoping, How Great Thou Art, Brothers In Arms, or Auld Lang Syne.
For their mashups, check out Thinking Out Loud/Let’s Get It On, Fishing in the Dark/Boondocks, Country Fried Pop, or Woman, Amen/Female.
The Home Free men are masters of collaborations. They put the spotlight on their collaborator, supporting them with wonderful vocals and amazing harmonies. Check out God Bless the USA with Lee Greenwood, American Pie with Don McLean, Elvira with The Oak Ridge Boys, Children Go Where I Send Thee with the late Kenny Rogers, Don’t Laugh At Me with Mark Wills, Christmas In Dixie with Alabama, Delta Dawn with Brooke Eden, or Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For with Peter Hollens.
Get at least five videos under your belt and then listen to Mayday - the official video. After Mayday, you’ll be ready for Tim and Austin doing My Maria or Tim’s mashup of Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay.
Then, when you come up for air, check out Rob’s and Austin’s “Two Country Singers Try Singing Opera.” You’ll need smelling salts after that one.
Don’t miss their official videos. The Home Free men will often do a straight, gorgeous vocal performance, but they’ll add elements of humor to the video that will leave you chuckling or even laughing out loud. (Folsom Prison Blues, Between A Rock And A Heartache, Make You Feel My Love, Working For A Living, Brother, Life Is A Highway).
And God help you when you get hit with the Home Free Curse. They’ll cover a song you absolutely cannot stand and make you like it against your will. I’d been hit by the curse four times before I gave up and quit counting. I’m not the only victim of the Home Free Curse, either.
Although their covers are amazing, don’t miss their original compositions. They range from the the poignant (So Long Dixie) to the patriotic (Land Of the Free). These include Dive Bar Saints (one of my favorites), Road Sweet Road, Catch Me If You Can, Give Me A Sign, Lonely Girl’s World, The Stargazer Trilogy, Champagne Taste On A Beer Budget, Love Me Like That, Skull And Bones, and many, many more.
Their synergy is phenomenal. Each is an artist in his own right, but man - when they sing together, magic happens. Wicked talent polished by decades of hard work. (Unchained Melody, Castle On The Hill, Seven Bridges Road, Only In America) To paraphrase another Home Fry, “They don’t just own a cover, they upgrade it.”
You are doomed, Home Fry. Bring ketchup.
Great summary and suggestions! My only comment would be to wait on Mayday until you're 10-15 songs deep and know each of the guys by name and what they can do. Same goes for Tim's solo work, please wait. You will understand after Mayday and thank us then. 🙂
No harmonica, just an insanely talented beat boxer, Adam Rupp. This group doesn't just do covers, they do upgrades. I think you might enjoy the video called "Adam Rupp drum solo".
That was the first song I heard by them, too. It kinds feels like you are being punked at first, but no, there are no instruments at all. They call themselves a vocal band. I have tickets to see them live in April for the first time and am so excited! I am subscribing in hopes of more Home Free. Try Listen to the Music!
New subscriber. Great reaction, too! I love it when people discover Home Free. They are a freakishly talented group of fellas that excel in all music genres. They can make you laugh sometimes, they can make you cry sometimes but they always impress. Here's a cheat sheet on the group: Adam Rupp, co-founder of HF and the awesome beatboxer. Tim Foust, bass. He has a five-octave range. Rob Lundquist (glasses and beard) Tenor Harmony. Austin Brown, Lead Tenor. Adam Chance, Baritone ( goes by Chance). Chance replaced Chris Rupp (co-founder) who left in 2016. Take Me Home Country Roads is phenomenal but you might also want to check out Dreamer, When A Man Loves A Woman, End Of The Road, One Man Band, American Pie featuring Don McLean, I Swear, Blue Ain't Your Color, Dive Bar Saints, The Driver, Crazy and Folsom Prison Blues. For some funny ones: Butts Medley, All About That Bass, Champagne Taste, Hillbilly Bone and Ray Stevens' Mississippi Squirrel Revival. For some serious ones: How Great Thou Art, Go Rest High On That Mountain. When you are familiar with all the boys and their vocal roles, do Mayday. And last but not least, Brothers In Arms. It is haunting and beautiful. They have recently released several new songs that you will want to check out. Unchained Melody, Listen to the Music, Brother and Stargazer Lilies trilogy: Give Me A Sign, Stargazer Lilies and Mr. ...Their latest releases are Might As Well Be Me, Playing With Fire, Remember My Name, Oh, Pretty Woman, Cruise, Stand By Me, Colder Weather and Life is a Highway. To switch it up..try Two Country Singers try singing Opera. Adam Chance just wrote the theme song to Ubisoft's new Pirate themed video game, Skull and Bones and Home Free performs it. Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole!
Love watching you discover my favorite group. So much good music ahead of you with #Homefree.
Loved your reaction! Try "Aint Going Down" if you want to hear more " nomonica". Its really amazing!
No instruments. Just amazing talent.
The twangy mouth harp sound you hear at the beginning and end (and throughout the song) is their baritone Adam Chance (Chance) the last guy shown in the video.
They can all beatbox to a certain extent but Adam Rupp is their epic main beatboxer. If there's any physical instruments used you'll see them. It's very rare that they use them though. Mostly they're used in collaboration with other non-acapella singers. I can only think of 2 or 3 songs where it's just the guys and they use instruments.
It's a Rabbit Hole, friend. Go down it, you will be amazed and most pleasantly surprised. #HomeFries
I highly recommend Listen to the Music. It's a 70s rock song that will totally blow your mind!!!😱
The Butts Medley....Helplessly Hoping....
Three of them write songs and Tim Faust has a soly album where he sings all the harmonies..truly SOLO.. I recommend Will You Still Love Me/ Stay
First time reactions always make me laugh at Adam Rupp playing the nomonica. Thats right that is what he calls it. You have just fallen down the Home Free rabbit hole. Next try an original written by Austin Brown called "Playing with fire". The do a lot of covers, but their origionals are wonderful too. keep listening and soon You will be a Home Fry.
Their versions Unchained Melody and How Great Thou Art are beautiful! You should also check out Pentatonix- no instruments and they are incredible as well. I love your reactions! 💜
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole. These boys are the best Acapella group. These boys are so talented and have a multitude of songs and videos. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole. They are the best Acapella group out there. Check out When A Man Loves A Woman and My Church.
You have just started down this rabbit hole. They are the best out there. Enjoy brother!!!
Austin the high tenor started the song then Rob the tenor and Tim with the low bass voice. Adam the beatboxer and Chance did the mouth harp. Home Free is my favorite group. No you not wrong no instruments. I like your reactions to Home Free. They are great. 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
Welcome to the rabbit hole.
If you are asking, "Who are these guys?", a great video to react to is their cover of the 1980's Huey Lewis hit "Workin' For A Livin'". The video introduces all of them by name at the beginning. It's also a totally different type of song and video that shows another side of them both musically and personality-wise. It has an even more amazing "nomonica" solo from Adam Rupp (the beatboxer).
Of course, there's all sorts of stuff that other will recommend as well. One sign of a talented group is that almost every commenter will recommend a different song to check out.
Home Free decribes itself as a country acapella band, but they do many other things as well. You cannot pin them down to one genre. There is no lead singer. They either take different verses as they did here or pick the member whose voice best fits the song. So here are the guys and a recommendation that features each of them as the lead:
Front row left to right:
Rob Lundquist - lead tenor - smooth voice with a lot of soul - End of the Road
Austin Brown = high tenor - incredibly strong and flexible voice - When a Man Loves a Woman
Tim Foust = Bass = five octave range and "plays" the bass guitar - Ring of Fire (new version being released next week)
Back row left to right:
Adam Chance (aka Chance) - rich baritone w/ 3 octave range - Cover me Up
Adam Rupp - beatboxer extraordinaire - beat box solo, Listen to the Music
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole. It runs very deep. These guys are so extremely talented. Adam the Beat Boxer is insane, He is a championship beat boxer. They each have unique voices that blend so well together. Keep listening to Home Free you will be glad you did. Love your reaction! I subscribed! ♥
The drums, harmonica, and various other sounds come from the beatboxer, Adam Rupp.
The mouth organ/jew harp/jaw harp sound is created by Adam Chance, in the back with the orangish colored hat. He uses throat singing techniques and tongue movements to create the 'twangy' sounds.
All the guys can beatbox at least a little.
Welcome to the Home Free fandom rabbit hole. We call ourselves Home Fries.
They cover all kinds of genres and also have original music. We Home Fries are here for you.
Yes 💯 percent acapella no instruments at all voices only
These gentlemen are the best! We Home Fries love them. React to more of their work and we’ll be here. 😊
Welcome to the family of Home Fries 🍟 the Home Free fans. Unfortunately they just announced that the first man you saw singing Austin Brown tenor 1 will be leaving the group. He wants to spend more time at home and start a family. Home Free tours a lot. But as of right now. Home Free is
Austin Brown tenor 1
Rob Lundquist tenor 2
Adam Chance Baritone
Tim Foust Bass
Adam Rupp Beatboxer
Seasoned Home Fry here. Great reaction! Looking forward to watching you go down the Home Free rabbit hole. ❤
Warning: Home Free is highly addictive. They're all vocal chameleons, 3 of them are song writers so there are lots of originals as well as covers. They sing (and write) in almost every genre and they each have channel(s) of their own. This song was originally published in 1913 and later covered by Bob Dylan & Joan Baez among others.
That beginning sound you hear is Adam Chance doing a Jaw Harp sound…with his mouth. There are No instruments used.
Welcome to the rabbit hole. These guys are amazing and just as good live. Pick anything they do and it's fire 🔥
Love, love love your reaction 🫶🏻✨💯🤗
That harmonica sound is called a Nomonica
Subscribed because I'm sure there is more Home Free on the way!
Welcome to the homefree rabbit whole. If you like this video remember that all the instruments you think you hear are all done by beatboxer. Also this very rarely use instruments. Welcome the first homefree video for most homefries and homefries is worldwide what us homefree fans are called and welcome to Adam's No-Monica
If you some good things to watch go check out Adam Rupp's Drum Solo he does at homefree concerts. Fans have taken videos now and over the years at their shows that are on youtube
which a homefree concert is a party not a concert and their covers are upgrades.
…this is Home Free!
Fun to watch a reactor discovering something so out of their wheelhouse.⬅
Note that there were two beatboxers here. Adam Rupp ("Adam") is their main beatboxer, and he was doing percussion and the "no-monica". Adam Chance ("Chance") typically sings, but here he was doing the simulated jaw harp throughout. (You heard it somehow as Gregorian Chant, other reactors think it is maybe a digeridoo.)⬅
My other favorite song of theirs is a collaboration they did two years ago on the 50th anniversary of _American Pie,_ with its original artist, Don Mclean.
Subbed for more Home Free ... oh my , are you in for a treat ! Join the rest of the Home Fries ... you'll have the time of your life !
New subscriber. The more Home Free reactions, the more Home Fries will subscribe.
The initial sound is a beatbox version of a "jaw harp" and when I first heard it I thought diggerridoo. It was Adam Chance making that noise, not the primary beat boxer Adam Rupp who you saw in the white tank top. He plays the NO monica. I think he's done video tutorials on how to do it.
All of the me.bers of Home Free can beat box.
Check out the video of Adam Rupp's live Drum Solo. The one with him in the red flannel is probably the best.
You should see them do it live.
No instruments! Acapella. Subscribed for more #homefree
Subscribed for #HomeFree 🤟🤠🤟
@GOnABeat, new Sub - here for your journey with #HomeFree! This was a great first reaction!! I've been following them since The Sing Off when they won season 4, have seen them in concert twice here in Canada, and can guarantee they will have you smiling, laughing and sometimes crying. They call themselves a Vocal Band, and as you've already seen by your first reaction, they somehow manage to make a cappella sound rich and full of "instruments." Some favourite upgrades to suggest are:
I Can't Outrun You - video concept and direction by Chance and pure 5-part harmony
Take Me Home Country Roads - a great example of a Home Free upgrade
One Man Band - love when the guys share the lead
Stand By Me - a classic that truly is a masterclass in arranging, harmonies, layering and dynmaics
Castle On the Hill - love the song, the musicality and the video
Plus, of course, every other song suggested by my fellow Home Fries - you really can't go wrong! Enjoy and we will be here for it!
Everything you heard was via the mouth but the main singer of this song(Austen Brown) will be leaving the group to go solo by the end of the year.
Oh yeah, I'm a 65 year old guy who could send you down so many rabbit holes it would melt your headphones. Rock, Country, Vamp Rock, Southern Rock and a little Folk music. I have an ear for good music. I am subscribed and I will offer a few suggestions. But I won't interrupt your Home Free Rabbit hole. 1.Listen to the Music, 2. Sea Shanty Medley, 3. When A Man Loves A Woman, plus many many more. Once I see these 3 I will offer up a new hole for you to think about.
I would recommend watching adam rupps drum solo its the video wheres hes wearing a red flannel shirt
Well you have just opened a can of worms to one of the greatest acapella bands. You're going to find yourself with your mouth open an awful lot reacting to these guys. I saw them live they are amazing 👍🔥🔥
Adam rupp does a very short video describing bow he achieves his “no-monica “ sound
Subbed for more Home Free😊
You just listened to the best acapella group out there!! But that’s just my opinion. For a little more country try Hillbilly Bone! And most everyone loves their cover of End of the Road by Boyz to Men. They have hundreds of covers snd original music. Welcome to the rabbit hole. Those who fall in never want to get out. Oh and check out their music video of an original called Skull and Bones. And do their live version of Sea Shantys. They sound fantastic live!!
You need Ring of Fire featuring Avi... and Helplessly Hoping👍👍
You should watch the live video of a drum solo.
Home Free is the Country version of Pentatonix.
They can all beatbox and verbal tunes
You are amazing because you say in your facial Expressions Bank me feel like you are feeling well I feel so thanks a lot it’s just so cool I’m 58 I’m a lady just really am I don’t like how you are bringing the song across cause I’ve never had heard it and I put the last month
Listen to All About That Bass
Subbed for more HF
Tom Macdonald dropping a new video Friday!!
I always stop and watch someone who has never seen them before. The facial expressions are worth it. 😊😅.
So, listen to at least 10 to 15 of their songs, THEN listen to MayDay. Dont just jump to that song.
🔥🤠🔥
Folsom prison blues should be next
All of the members of Home Free can beat box. Adam Chance ( goes by Chance) is doig the mouth harp.
Great Comments! Welcome to my favorite, most prolific, most diverse, a.cappella band! Home Free has engaged my full attention and admiration for over a decade -- ever since watching them win the Sing Off TV competition in 2013. @lynnramsay8821 has provided all the data you'll need to get a complete overview of who they are and what they do! You can't pick a loser from their huge catalog of wonders, so my advice is to follow the suggestions given by the Home Fries (fans!) in the other comments. Enjoy your journey!
Try Penatonix, another a capella group. “Hallelujah” is as good a place as any o get your first Mitch Slap
If the NoMonica is giving you fits listen to thier version of Ain't Goin Down til the Sun Comes Up
Welcome to the wonderful rabbit hole of Home Free. You'll get lots of love and recommendations from the Home Fries, but here are 2 you might enjoy.
Hillbilly Bone
ua-cam.com/video/y_7_RTogRBw/v-deo.htmlsi=jLBqyl2P2_p5lHJb
Castle on the Hill (live)
ua-cam.com/video/MB3vPzYlQ4Q/v-deo.htmlsi=sTPrVFsTIGnwQt5X
This is called Acapella. It is a variation on Acapella. Only voices allowed, no instruments.
Pls. check a Live Band w/ KATRINA VELARDE and TROY LAURETA "Come Out in the Rain". Another SUPERB Performance! 😊
