The guy you said you never heard before, he was the same singer that sung most of Man Of Constant Sorrow that was up front... His name is Austin Brown, he has his own channel and has some amazing songs that show his talents as high tenor...
Bryan is correct. The high tenor with the long hair is Austin Brown. The beatboxer is Adam Rupp with the bun. You may not hear his voice solo but he can sing tenor to baritone in the background when needed.
Please don't react to Mayday until you know all the group members, and how they fit into this outstanding group. There are surprises in Mayday that would be lost on you if you reacted to them too soon. Thank you. Fun reaction!
As they are lined up here: Adam Chance, goes by “Chance”, baritone/bass Austin Brown, high tenor Tim Foust, super bass man, has a 5 octave range Rob Lundquist, tenor Adam Rupp, beat boxer/vocal percussionist, 2 time world-wide winner, tenor Hope this helps you to know them! You should check out their version of “When a Man Loves a Woman”, it’s fantastic!
Chance can sing tenor as well, and has a 4 octave range. He increased the versatility of this group immensely. Chris is a fantastic singer, but chance is significantly better.
Just to clarify. Austin (the lead for the final verse) is the high tenor. The beatboxer was in the ponytail and did the transition of "It is Well With My Soul" in the middle of the arrangement. For another great praise and worship song from them, react to Peter Hollens' "Amazing Grace" with Home Free. They use Austin to bring home the last verse again because of his power and clarity.
From L to R: Tim Foust, super bass (one of the best in the world) Rob Lundquist, tenor with the beard Austin Brown, high tenor (and usually the lead) Adam Chance, incredibly versatile glue guy Adam Rupp, beatboxer (arguably the best in the world, plus as you saw he can sing too)
@@bucklanders5946 - Austin Brown is a 1st Tenor & has the falsetto! Adam Rupp is a Tenor, but does not have Austin's range he makes up for it with his talent as a 2 time World Champion Beatboxer!!
The high tenor at the end of the song is Austin, he sang most of the lead in Man of Constant Sorrow. It is Well lines were sung by Adam the beatboxer...he is so talented that title seems a major understatement! Great reaction, thanks!
This song was played at my Dad's funeral back in January this year. I've always loved this version (and always will) but I'm in floods of tears listening to it.
Danielle, when they were in Europe on tour they were flying overhead and when they saw these Alps in Austria they said We have to film a video there. You should also react to Do You Hear What I Hear, where instead of Adam Chance you will see Adam's brother Chris Rupp. Adam & Chris started the group in Minnesota but Chris decided to drop out to go solo and that is when Adam Chance joined. 🎶👱♀️👗👠👠💓 And as a reminder, Tim shows off his range during Your Man but the best version is the Crazy Life Tour one.
@@wendischambach6181 Chance started touring with them in March 2016 and went full time May 2016. So a little over 5 years. Austin joined 2013, so 4/5 of the group has been together for 8+ years. Tim joined 2012 but had been touring with them off and on since 2010. And Rob joined in 2008. Beatboxer Adam Rupp is the last remaining founder, starting the group in 2000.
The mountains in the background are called the Churfirsten. They traveled to Switzerland for this Video, when they where in Austria. It's really a beautiful region in the east of Switzerland.
To hear pure harmony with no beatboxing, listen to their cover of Crosby, Stills, and Nash’s Helplessly Hoping. You do an amazing job of reacting to what you hear!
When you have a group of 5 men who can sing in the tenor range and 2 of them are solid basses, the opportunity for different arrangements is endless! Part of the attraction with Home Free is that we never quite know what they're going to do and who will be doing it! The anticipation is glorious! Great reaction! The Home Free rabbit hole is deep and diverse! You'll find something for every mood and genre! Have fun on your adventure! ❤
The guy you thought you’d not heard was the lead singer in man of constant sorrow. That is the fabulous Austin Brown. He changes his voice to fit the song. Loved your reaction and I’m a new sub for you.
@@hellevirenfeldt3608 OK sorry but this cracked me up and I know it was just a mistake but.... you need to drop the "p", it's not "whimp" it's "on a whim". Thanks for making me laugh, I needed it.
@@hellevirenfeldt3608 no worries, even those of us who speak English all the time, make mistakes. Specially when it comes to phrases we don't see written out a lot. :)
Tim is the bass .. Rob (glasses) is the tenor .. Austin (reddish hair and beard) is thr high tenor .. Chance who was all the way on the left is the baritone but also sings bass .. Adam who was all the way on right is the beat boxer and when he sings is in the tenor range , like when he sang the 'It is well with my soul' part
Lived in Belgium as a kid for 10 years (parents were missionaries), was excited to see that this was filmed in Austria. Was excited to show my parents this video and give the big reveal of where this was shot. 10 seconds in...MOM: "Oh Austria"...
hehe it's just sad that HF has tow solid bassists. Chance can't get quite as low as Tim but he has a real bass register. The reason it's sad is that it means another group does not have one of the two! Then again, I'd be sad if they lost one of the two. "it is well" was the vocal percussionist. That last tenor was the hatted lead from Man of Constant Sorrow. Austin is HF's high tenor. Adam (beatboxer) is also a tenor and can hit some amazing notes (actually low and high) using his vocal talents. He isn't as comfortable simply singing as he was trained as a trumpet player not a vocalist. I'd suggest listening/watching Helplessly Hoping for how well they mix.
Danielle, it is refreshing to see joy on another Christian's face and soul! There is nothing that compares to songs and Hymns that glorify God Almighty! To be honest I had never heard of Home Free until today! Also How Great Thou Art and It Is Well are my favorite Hymns! Jesus really encouraged me through your channel! I have been a christian almost 40 years and I never get tired of listening to Hymns from the church! We need more of Jesus and less of the world as Scripture tells us! Thanks again! Christ's peace and joy to you!
I grew up with this song. My grandpa was a minister, my mom, grandma, and 2 aunts sang together, my parents, my brother, and i sang in the church choir, and many Sundays we all gathered at my aunt's home for dinner and singing gospel/hymns while she played her organ. This song usually ended the day for our Sunday get-togethers. Home Free did a BEAUTIFUL version of How Great Thou Art, and i always love hearing Austin (my favorite) and Rob harmonize. Sadly, Austin has left HF, so I'm very grateful for the many videos of HF with Austin.
Chance is technically a bass-baritone. His voice rides the cusp of both ranges and can cover both; just not as low as Tim. Tim is technically a contrabass.
John Deer Green, did I hear right? I heard that Tim had worked with Chance to help expand his lower range. Have you heard that? I understand that Tim, Chance, Avi, and Geoff are all friends and work with each other. I'd love to hear the four of them do something together.
@@GaiaOne, I didn't know that, but wouldn't be surprised. These bands actually encourage and support each other. There is plenty of demand for good music, so there's room for all of them.
This is the song that introduced me to Home Free a few years ago, and I was immediately hooked. This has always been one of my favorite hymns as well. Great reaction Danielle! Enjoy your journey!
Home Free did a cover 'Helplessly Hoping', by Crosby, Stills and Nash, that is a lesson in precision and blending of textures. I think you would really enjoy it.
If you loved to react to that, you will love Home free- Helplessly hoping. Their harmonies will blow you out of the water. In that video, the bass (Tim Foust) comes in later and ties the whole arrangement together. New sub here.
I love this one so much! Can you please listen to Go Rest High On That Mountain by them? It was one of my grandpa's favorite songs. He passed away 4 months ago. We actually had the Home Free version played at his funeral
This was recorded in the Swiss Alps. The Church is a Catholic Church on the grounds of land donated to the church by the Von Trapp Family before Germany occupied Austria. This was filmed in the same area as where Julie Andrews was filmed singing The Sound Of Music.
If you want to go experience a real tear jerker form Home Free, I’d go with “Go Rest High on that Mountain”. You will NOT regret it. I cry every time I play or sing it.
Trivia: The only Grammy Elvis won was for his gospel album that was titled How Great Thou Art. The man who sang the top tenor is Austin, not beatboxer Adam Rupp. It was filmed in the Alps in Austria while they toured in Europe.
the country rebel recorded version of "go rest high on the mountain" is brilliant. and that high voice you refer to is Austin Brown, to hear him at his best, listen to "when a man loves a woman"
Another great song to listen to early in your travels down the Home Free rabbit hole is their cover of "Ring of Fire" by Johnny Cash. They have two versions - one featuring Avi Kaplan (formerly of Pentatonix) and one their live performance when they were on the TV show Sing Off. I kind of prefer the live version as it really is live with minimal help from production and allows you to hear what skills they really have. (Plus you get some reactions from the judges and audience, which is always fun.) But the duelling basses are also a joy. Can't go wrong with either one.
Oh Lordy, you Need to react to….” WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN”….Austin Brown is Unbelievable …he’ll blow your socks off ‼️🥰💥🔥. That one gives me tingles & chills to my toes 🔥💥🥰‼️❤️. You’ll love how they did it even during Covid…..‼️. Tim had been after Austin to do this one…So very he Did ‼️💥‼️
Adam the beat boxer has been with Home Free from the beginning .. Rob joined in 2008 .. Tim was around 2011 .. Austin was 2012 .. and Chance was end of 2016
Their bass Tim Foust is a great lead singer, they say he can sing 5 octaves, I know he can sing into a tenor range as well and then goes super low too.
They blend so well because they don't compete with each other their friends as well as accomplished artists, and the group started 20+ years but Tim(bass) Austin (high tenor) and Chance ( baritone ) have been introduced during the following years! Learn about them Adam the beat box dude sings well, Austin and Rob complement each other well Tim can sing tenor and all the way down in the basement 😀 so can Adam Chance! God blessed us when these men were put together 🙏
The last tenor lead was by Austin Brown, the tenor 1. The beat boxer sang 'It is Well'. He has a lovely bari/tenor, but doesn't really like to do solos.
This was shot in the Austrian Alps. The beatboxer was the one who sang "It is well with my soul". The bass is Tim Foust (and you need to check out his collaboration with Peter Hollens singing "Misty Mountains" from "The Hobbit"). Your "favorite" tenor is Rob Lundquist. The high tenor is Austin Brown (check out Home Free's cover of "When a Man Loves a Woman" where Austin takes the lead and just kills it.) The beat boxer is Adam Rupp. The baritone (who didn't do a solo here) is Adam Chance, whom they call Chance to distinguish him from Adam Rupp (beatboxer). Chance covers the bass when Tim is singing lead. Chance does solos on their covers of "Folsom Prison Blues", "Blue Ain't Your Color", "Sea Shanty Medley" among others. In their latest, Chance has pretty much the entire lead. Really enjoying your reactions.
Actually, the tenor that came in, where you asked if it was the beatboxer, that was Austin, their first tenor. He was the central guy in "Man of constant sorrow". What was magical here was, the guy who lead the "It is well... With my soul..." is Adam Rupp, the beatboxer. You will rarely hear his voice, other than for rythm and effects, and it is SUCH a shame, because as we hear here, it's so clean and pure... In another song many recommended, Helplessly Hoping (what a wonderful performance that is!), he also sings (These two songs have absolutely no percussion, hence no beatboxing).
Great reaction! Subscribed. The tenor at the end of this song, Austin Brown, sang the lead in Man of Constant Sorrow. If you want to hear him tear it up in still another genre, check out his lead in their cover of When a Man Loves a Woman. The bass, Tim, who sang the first verse, covers five octaves beautifully. You can hear some of his higher range and each of them individually in American Pie with Don McLean. If you'd like to hear more harmonies, check out Seven Bridges Road or just about anything they sing, but especially Helplessly Hoping. It's stellar. #subscriptionsquad
Seven Bridges Road is one of their older recordings (with Adam's brother Chris) and is an excellent cover of one of the Eagles best recordings. Danielle Marie, I just heard one (actually several...) of your reviews this evening and subscribed. As a fairly long time musician and acapella singer (~50 years) I really appreciate a music critic/reviewer who can actually sing well. Some others have valid comments as well but that gives your observations just that much more credibility. If you had to pick a group to follow, I can't think of one much better than these guys. Sooo Fine!!! I'll be looking forward to your next review.
These guys mesh together perfectly!!! Rob's smooooooth voice. Love his voice. Austin's angelic voice!! Chances higher notes. Perfect!!!! And who knew Adam rupp could sing like an angel!!!? Would love to hear him sing more. Then there is THE KING OF THE BASS! He can go high on notes and the lowest of notes. These guys are just the best out there!!!!! Phenomenal!!! This should be the song you hear when getting into heaven.
Prior to Home Free's cover of this song, the last time I heard this song, it was brought to tears was my mom's funeral service in 2011. It was her favorite hymn. This version brought me a sense of peace and calm.
Danielle, Your channel has become my favorite vocal reaction channel, partly because I think we're into similar music (and theological persuasion), but also you clearly *love* music and appreciate excellence from a position of understanding...that is also sincerely passionate. Also, you have a fantastic voice and I love that you sing in your explanations. Love your stuff.
Thank you for your reaction. This is one of my favorite songs. This was filmed in the Austrian Alps. They are such wonderful singers and their harmonies are exceptional. Tim is their base, Chance is their baritone, Rob is their tenor, Austen is their high tenor and he has the long curly hair, and Adam is their beat boxer. Tonight he sang and he is also a tenor. and he had the ponytail tonight. I hope you will cover more of their songs.
It has been a dream of mine to sing worship music in an acapella group with other men who love God and want to share His love with the world. While that has not happened yet, I thoroughly enjoy these groups!!
Absolutely love this song by Home Free. This was filmed in the Austrian Alps when they were touring there. First singer was Tim Foust, the bass. He has a 5 octave range. 2nd singer was Rob Lundquist (glasses). He’s a wonderful tenor. 3rd singer was Adam Rupp, the beatboxer. He had the ponytail/bun in back and has a tenor voice although he rarely sings. Last singer was Austin Brown, (reddish hair) the high tenor who has a wonderful voice. Adam Chance (we call him Chance) is the baritone/bass who didn’t have a solo part in this but is a wonderful singer. Home Free was founded by the Rupp brothers in college in 2000. Adam Rupp(beatboxer) is the only original member left. The others joined in 2012 except for Adam Chance who joined in 2016 when Chris Rupp left the group to go solo. You will see Chris in earlier videos usually wearing a cowboy hat or baseball hat. Home Free is known for amazing harmonies. They can also be goofy too but always sound good. Try Helplessly Hoping, One Man Band, In the Blood, Country Roads. Good reaction!
You asked where they filmed this. They were on tour in Europe and when they saw this location in the Austrian Alps they got inspired and knew this was the place for How Great Thou Art. They called their crew and flew them to Austria just to film this. We are lucky and truly blessed that they were. The visuals are incredible and I love the little church on the hill.
1. Austrian Alps....been there, staggering....that little white chapel was inspiring 2. high tenor was Austin Brown....he performs solo too....when a man loves a woman....stc 3. Ron, ist tenor solo is opera trained.....sooooo smooth 4. Adam Rupp is the beatboxer ... singing here and is great
Hey! Love your reaction videos! As someone else stated...yes this was filmed in the Swiss Alps. (Austria) They are so, so good. Just humble, sweet guys who love singing together. Gotta love it! ♥️
Home Free as a group has been together for 20 years. But only one of the members singing here was with the original group. The beat boxer, Adam Rupp, on the far right with the ponytail is the only one from the original group that is still there. He and his brother, Chris Rupp- a baritone, formed the group with three others. Rob Lundquist, the second from the right with the beard, is what I would call a second tenor and is the next oldest member of the group. Tim Foust is in the middle and came in and out of the group once or twice as he filled in for the original bass, then took over a few years before they appeared on The Sing Off. Austin Brown, the long reddish hair first tenor, was found singing on a cruise ship that Home Free did a stint on. They brought him in to replace the original tenor when when that guy left. Adam Chance was the bass with a group called Street Corner Symphony, the group that placed second on the second season of The Sing Off and does the bass when Tim is singing the lead. He is the newest member and took Chris Rupp's place when Chris left the group to go solo. All in all there are 11 past members of this group plus the current 5. Home Free was elated that Adam didn't go to Pentatonix when their original bass, Avi Kaplan, left the group. And I understand they shot this video in the Swill Alps. Did you notice the little church in the foreground?
Tim Foust(the bass) has a full 5 octave range. A0 and up. The big guy, beat boxer were with the group the beginning. The three on the left have been added in the past 5 years. Left to right Adam Chance (newest baritone mid note1 low note) Austin (high tenor new in the past 8 years or so) tim foust (bass a0 maybe f0 low new in past 8 years) rob original member high tenor) adam rupp (original founding member with his brother, beatbox, mis baritone, tenor 1. Great harmonies can be heard in auld layng syne.
Thank you for this HF reaction. The group was started 20 yrs. ago but there is only one founding member left, Adam, the beatboxer. Of the other 4, Rob, the 2nd tenor joined in 2008' the bass, Tim. in 2010; Austin, the high tenor, in 2012 and Chance, the baritone/bass in 2016. so their sound is only about 8 yrs. old. Cheers!
The band was formed in 2000 by Chris & Adam Rupp. Adam is still the beat boxer. Rob joined in 2008, Tim in 2012 & Austin 2013 just before they won the Sing Off. Adam Chance joined when Chris Rupp left in 2016. Chris called Chance their secret weapon and certainly his abilities & range have allowed them to expand their repertoire. & I love his voice also. I can't pick a favourite as every time I hear one in a solo they are at that moment my favourite. If you want to see how well they blend, Helplessly Hoping by Crosby Stills & Nash is awesome, and being a singer you'll probably appreciate it even more than me.😁
You won't overlook the bass in HF....Tim is a beast...often takes lead, and hits you in the guts! The solo you heard was the beatboxer....Austin then took over, he is the High Tenor
Adam Rupp, the guy that did the harmonica and the group's human drum kit,, and the one with a ponytail, yep.. this is few of their videos where you can actually see him sing. Another video is "My Country 'Tis of Thee", and ooooh the harmonies of that one is really great as well
The one you said you didn't think you had heard was Austin Briwn who is the one doing most of the lead in Man...Sorrow. He is their super high tenor.. the beatbox is Adam Rupp who did the "it is well" part.
The blonde haired guy is Adam Rupp and he's the one that does the beat boxing. He's also one of the founding members of Home Free, along with his brother Chris. You've now started down a rabbit hole and you can't stop. Here's a few songs you should check out. Their cover of End of the Road by Boyz to Men. Then Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash. Then the live version of the Josh Turner song Your Man.
You commented on the bass starting the song. It made me think back to my youth. I believe it was George Beverly Shea who made this song so well known and popular. He sang for the Billy Graham Crusade and this was something of his trademark song. My point -- he had a rich, smooth bass voice, so for me hearing a bass start this song is perfectly natural.
Thank you for a great reaction, new viewer and new subscriber. Would love to hear more reactions to Home Free. Adam Rupp is the beatboxer and sang the "It is well" part. Austin Brown is there sky high tenor and sang the last part of the song. They were is Austria for an acapella festival and saw the Amazing scenery and decided to bring over their video crew and shoot this song. So glad they did, the Austrian Alps are Stunning !!!! Would love a reaction to "When A Man Loves a Woman" by Home Free.

second that. Wait before you do Mayday.
This ^^^^^^^^^^^!!!!!
Listen to Folsom prison blues first. It is a must!!!
I agree
Exactly
Another vote for waiting on Mayday. Butts remix will give you a taste of their fun side.
The beatboxer, Adam, was the one singing the It Is Well solo briefly then high fluty sounds when Austin solos at the end.
Helplessly hoping is another one with no beatboxing. It’s perfectly timed.
Also Auld Lang Syne.
If you want to really hear how they mesh, listen to helplessly hoping..... Unreal....
Yes! This^^^^^^
Yes!!
As they are lined up here:
Adam Chance, goes by “Chance”, baritone/bass
Austin Brown, high tenor
Tim Foust, super bass man, has a 5 octave range
Rob Lundquist, tenor
Adam Rupp, beat boxer/vocal percussionist, 2 time world-wide winner, tenor
Hope this helps you to know them!

Adam Chance, incredibly versatile glue guy
Adam Rupp, beatboxer (arguably the best in the world, plus as you saw he can sing too)
In this song, and some others where there's no vocal percussion, Adam Rupp will sing a high falsetto going higher than Austin Brown's highest tenor.

The high background voice doing the "ooos" behind Austin's lead in the last verse is Adam Rupp, the beatboxer. Adam Rupp is the guy with the ponytail.
It is well*
Austin also used to sing in Voices of Liberty with a lot of the Voctave members. 🙂
If I’m not mistaken, the very high notes in the background are also Austin, layered in on top of his own lead part (and in other parts)
@@thegzak no I think it's Adam he did state in interview when he sings his a high tenor like Austin he can sing really high aswell
If Rob is your favorite voice, then you will love "End of the Road". He is amazing in that song and it's one of Home Free's best covers.
Yes beautiful!
also blue ain't your color. love him in that one

True story
I grew up with this song.

Sadly, Austin has left HF, so I'm very grateful for the many videos of HF with Austin.
Whenever possible please definitely checkout Home Free's version of When a Man Loves a Woman and Austin Brown's version of Unchained Melody..
Yessss!
As you travel down the Home Free rabbit hole , the will find so many songs that Tim (bass) is the main singer
No need to worry about Home Free neglecting the bass; they have two. Tim is a basso profundo and Chance is a baritone.
Chance is technically a bass-baritone. His voice rides the cusp of both ranges and can cover both; just not as low as Tim. Tim is technically a contrabass.
John Deer Green, did I hear right? I heard that Tim had worked with Chance to help expand his lower range. Have you heard that? I understand that Tim, Chance, Avi, and Geoff are all friends and work with each other. I'd love to hear the four of them do something together.
@@GaiaOne, I didn't know that, but wouldn't be surprised. These bands actually encourage and support each other. There is plenty of demand for good music, so there's room for all of them.
@@GaiaOne Actually Tim has worked individually with each of the afformentioned basses to help them achieve a much lower range.
An amazing worship song performed by an amazing group. Gives me goosebumps.
This is the song that introduced me to Home Free a few years ago, and I was immediately hooked. This has always been one of my favorite hymns as well. Great reaction Danielle! Enjoy your journey!
Home Free did a cover 'Helplessly Hoping', by Crosby, Stills and Nash, that is a lesson in precision and blending of textures. I think you would really enjoy it.
If you loved to react to that, you will love Home free- Helplessly hoping. Their harmonies will blow you out of the water.
In that video, the bass (Tim Foust) comes in later and ties the whole arrangement together. New sub here.
I love this one so much! Can you please listen to Go Rest High On That Mountain by them? It was one of my grandpa's favorite songs. He passed away 4 months ago. We actually had the Home Free version played at his funeral
Austin (the guy with shoulder length hair that is down) is a tenor of the group. Adam Rupp (the guy with long hair in a ponytail) is the beatboxer.
This was recorded in the Swiss Alps. The Church is a Catholic Church on the grounds of land donated to the church by the Von Trapp Family before Germany occupied Austria. This was filmed in the same area as where Julie Andrews was filmed singing The Sound Of Music.
If you want to go experience a real tear jerker form Home Free, I’d go with “Go Rest High on that Mountain”. You will NOT regret it. I cry every time I play or sing it.
Trivia: The only Grammy Elvis won was for his gospel album that was titled How Great Thou Art. The man who sang the top tenor is Austin, not beatboxer Adam Rupp.
It was filmed in the Alps in Austria while they toured in Europe.
the country rebel recorded version of "go rest high on the mountain" is brilliant. and that high voice you refer to is Austin Brown, to hear him at his best, listen to "when a man loves a woman"
Your smile listening to the song makes my year .
Another great song to listen to early in your travels down the Home Free rabbit hole is their cover of "Ring of Fire" by Johnny Cash. They have two versions - one featuring Avi Kaplan (formerly of Pentatonix) and one their live performance when they were on the TV show Sing Off. I kind of prefer the live version as it really is live with minimal help from production and allows you to hear what skills they really have. (Plus you get some reactions from the judges and audience, which is always fun.) But the duelling basses are also a joy. Can't go wrong with either one.
Oh Lordy, you Need to react to….” WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN”….Austin Brown is Unbelievable …he’ll blow your socks off ‼️🥰💥🔥. That one gives me tingles & chills to my toes 🔥💥🥰‼️❤️. You’ll love how they did it even during Covid…..‼️. Tim had been after Austin to do this one…So very he Did ‼️💥‼️
Adam the beat boxer has been with Home Free from the beginning .. Rob joined in 2008 .. Tim was around 2011 .. Austin was 2012 .. and Chance was end of 2016
This is my favorite version of this hymn.
Their bass Tim Foust is a great lead singer, they say he can sing 5 octaves, I know he can sing into a tenor range as well and then goes super low too.
He can go low enough to blow speakers. The mark of a true bass. :)
5 plus
They blend so well because they don't compete with each other their friends as well as accomplished artists, and the group started 20+ years but Tim(bass) Austin (high tenor) and Chance ( baritone ) have been introduced during the following years! Learn about them Adam the beat box dude sings well, Austin and Rob complement each other well Tim can sing tenor and all the way down in the basement 😀 so can Adam Chance! God blessed us when these men were put together 🙏
The last tenor lead was by Austin Brown, the tenor 1. The beat boxer sang 'It is Well'. He has a lovely bari/tenor, but doesn't really like to do solos.
This was shot in the Austrian Alps. The beatboxer was the one who sang "It is well with my soul". The bass is Tim Foust (and you need to check out his collaboration with Peter Hollens singing "Misty Mountains" from "The Hobbit"). Your "favorite" tenor is Rob Lundquist. The high tenor is Austin Brown (check out Home Free's cover of "When a Man Loves a Woman" where Austin takes the lead and just kills it.) The beat boxer is Adam Rupp. The baritone (who didn't do a solo here) is Adam Chance, whom they call Chance to distinguish him from Adam Rupp (beatboxer). Chance covers the bass when Tim is singing lead. Chance does solos on their covers of "Folsom Prison Blues", "Blue Ain't Your Color", "Sea Shanty Medley" among others. In their latest, Chance has pretty much the entire lead. Really enjoying your reactions.
The one with the pony tail is the beatboxer Adam Rupp (...well with my soul).
The third soloist is Austin the lead tenor.
I'd like to see you react to them singing "Oh Holy Night" in the beautiful church.
Hands down... my favorite Home Free song!!!
Actually, the tenor that came in, where you asked if it was the beatboxer, that was Austin, their first tenor. He was the central guy in "Man of constant sorrow". What was magical here was, the guy who lead the "It is well... With my soul..." is Adam Rupp, the beatboxer. You will rarely hear his voice, other than for rythm and effects, and it is SUCH a shame, because as we hear here, it's so clean and pure... In another song many recommended, Helplessly Hoping (what a wonderful performance that is!), he also sings (These two songs have absolutely no percussion, hence no beatboxing).
Great reaction! Subscribed. The tenor at the end of this song, Austin Brown, sang the lead in Man of Constant Sorrow. If you want to hear him tear it up in still another genre, check out his lead in their cover of When a Man Loves a Woman. The bass, Tim, who sang the first verse, covers five octaves beautifully. You can hear some of his higher range and each of them individually in American Pie with Don McLean. If you'd like to hear more harmonies, check out Seven Bridges Road or just about anything they sing, but especially Helplessly Hoping. It's stellar. #subscriptionsquad
Seven Bridges Road is one of their older recordings (with Adam's brother Chris) and is an excellent cover of one of the Eagles best recordings.
Danielle Marie, I just heard one (actually several...) of your reviews this evening and subscribed. As a fairly long time musician and acapella singer (~50 years) I really appreciate a music critic/reviewer who can actually sing well. Some others have valid comments as well but that gives your observations just that much more credibility. If you had to pick a group to follow, I can't think of one much better than these guys. Sooo Fine!!! I'll be looking forward to your next review.
Oh my God! This is so wonderful. Shoutout to that bass singer. So good!
Home free killed it. The best that song has ever been sung.
Awesome. For whatever reasons, it usually takes reactors quite some time to discover this song.
These guys mesh together perfectly!!! Rob's smooooooth voice. Love his voice. Austin's angelic voice!! Chances higher notes. Perfect!!!! And who knew Adam rupp could sing like an angel!!!? Would love to hear him sing more. Then there is THE KING OF THE BASS! He can go high on notes and the lowest of notes. These guys are just the best out there!!!!! Phenomenal!!! This should be the song you hear when getting into heaven.
Prior to Home Free's cover of this song, the last time I heard this song, it was brought to tears was my mom's funeral service in 2011. It was her favorite hymn. This version brought me a sense of peace and calm.
This was my Mom's favorite worship song. It brings back wonderful memories. Love your reactions Jen
I love watching a home fry be born.
I would recommend you to listen "One Man Band." It highlights each member rather well. #subscriptionsquad
Danielle,
Your channel has become my favorite vocal reaction channel, partly because I think we're into similar music (and theological persuasion), but also you clearly *love* music and appreciate excellence from a position of understanding...that is also sincerely passionate.
Also, you have a fantastic voice and I love that you sing in your explanations.
Love your stuff.
Thank you for your reaction. This is one of my favorite songs. This was filmed in the Austrian Alps. They are such wonderful singers and their harmonies are exceptional. Tim is their base, Chance is their baritone, Rob is their tenor, Austen is their high tenor and he has the long curly hair, and Adam is their beat boxer. Tonight he sang and he is also a tenor. and he had the ponytail tonight. I hope you will cover more of their songs.
Absolutely one of their best! Gets you in your feels!
Coach, Pls react : When a man love a woman by Home Free.
#SubscriptionSquad
Thank you, Danielle, for introducing me to Home Free on your reviews. They are truly exquisite!
Your listening to the best arrangement and best version I have ever heard. It truly a cut above.
The harmonies were awesome. Beautiful the way they arranged the song!! Great reaction!!
I really enjoyed this, it definitely updated the song and made is a fresh. As a worship band member at my church I always enjoy songs reworked.
Just subbed, love Home Free! Their cover of Take Me Home, Country Roads is amazing!
It has been a dream of mine to sing worship music in an acapella group with other men who love God and want to share His love with the world. While that has not happened yet, I thoroughly enjoy these groups!!
Absolutely love this song by Home Free. This was filmed in the Austrian Alps when they were touring there. First singer was Tim Foust, the bass. He has a 5 octave range. 2nd singer was Rob Lundquist (glasses). He’s a wonderful tenor. 3rd singer was Adam Rupp, the beatboxer. He had the ponytail/bun in back and has a tenor voice although he rarely sings. Last singer was Austin Brown, (reddish hair) the high tenor who has a wonderful voice. Adam Chance (we call him Chance) is the baritone/bass who didn’t have a solo part in this but is a wonderful singer. Home Free was founded by the Rupp brothers in college in 2000. Adam Rupp(beatboxer) is the only original member left. The others joined in 2012 except for Adam Chance who joined in 2016 when Chris Rupp left the group to go solo. You will see Chris in earlier videos usually wearing a cowboy hat or baseball hat. Home Free is known for amazing harmonies. They can also be goofy too but always sound good. Try Helplessly Hoping, One Man Band, In the Blood, Country Roads. Good reaction!
They were in the Austrian Alps. So beautiful. That high tenor is Austin Brown. He is classicly trained in opera.
You asked where they filmed this. They were on tour in Europe and when they saw this location in the Austrian Alps they got inspired and knew this was the place for How Great Thou Art. They called their crew and flew them to Austria just to film this. We are lucky and truly blessed that they were. The visuals are incredible and I love the little church on the hill.
1. Austrian Alps....been there, staggering....that little white chapel was inspiring 2. high tenor was Austin Brown....he performs solo too....when a man loves a woman....stc 3. Ron, ist tenor solo is opera trained.....sooooo smooth 4. Adam Rupp is the beatboxer ... singing here and is great
She’s gonna like this!..
I laughed when you said you never heard Austin sing. The one you do not heard often is the one singing it is well, with my soul
Undoubtedly the most touching by Home Free
Hey! Love your reaction videos! As someone else stated...yes this was filmed in the Swiss Alps. (Austria) They are so, so good. Just humble, sweet guys who love singing together. Gotta love it! ♥️
Angelina has a rendition of this as well. If you enjoy a lower range, you will be quite surprised.
Home Free as a group has been together for 20 years. But only one of the members singing here was with the original group. The beat boxer, Adam Rupp, on the far right with the ponytail is the only one from the original group that is still there. He and his brother, Chris Rupp- a baritone, formed the group with three others. Rob Lundquist, the second from the right with the beard, is what I would call a second tenor and is the next oldest member of the group. Tim Foust is in the middle and came in and out of the group once or twice as he filled in for the original bass, then took over a few years before they appeared on The Sing Off. Austin Brown, the long reddish hair first tenor, was found singing on a cruise ship that Home Free did a stint on. They brought him in to replace the original tenor when when that guy left. Adam Chance was the bass with a group called Street Corner Symphony, the group that placed second on the second season of The Sing Off and does the bass when Tim is singing the lead. He is the newest member and took Chris Rupp's place when Chris left the group to go solo. All in all there are 11 past members of this group plus the current 5. Home Free was elated that Adam didn't go to Pentatonix when their original bass, Avi Kaplan, left the group. And I understand they shot this video in the Swill Alps. Did you notice the little church in the foreground?
loved the reaction, these guys are amazing, feel like you would enjoy their cover of Mayday
Thank you for an instructive and informational reaction.
Adam Rupp, the one who sang "It is well" is their beatboxer. The final soloist, Austin Brown, is their high tenor.
Tim Foust(the bass) has a full 5 octave range. A0 and up. The big guy, beat boxer were with the group the beginning. The three on the left have been added in the past 5 years. Left to right Adam Chance (newest baritone mid note1 low note) Austin (high tenor new in the past 8 years or so) tim foust (bass a0 maybe f0 low new in past 8 years) rob original member high tenor) adam rupp (original founding member with his brother, beatbox, mis baritone, tenor 1. Great harmonies can be heard in auld layng syne.
This song, and "As the Deer" are two of my favorite hymns!
Such a beautiful location to.choose and such a beautiful rendition of this beautiful Old hymn.
How great thou art Lord, Alleluiah! Thanks Coach 😁
Chance filling the deep harmonies really fills out the song and reinforces Tim's bass!
I joined my school choir and we actually sang this, i really enjoyed singing it :>
Thank you for this HF reaction. The group was started 20 yrs. ago but there is only one founding member left, Adam, the beatboxer. Of the other 4, Rob, the 2nd tenor joined in 2008' the bass, Tim. in 2010; Austin, the high tenor, in 2012 and Chance, the baritone/bass in 2016. so their sound is only about 8 yrs. old. Cheers!
You are great, thanks for all your reviews!! Greetings from Southern California.
I am thankful and grateful they honored God!
The band was formed in 2000 by Chris & Adam Rupp. Adam is still the beat boxer. Rob joined in 2008, Tim in 2012 & Austin 2013 just before they won the Sing Off. Adam Chance joined when Chris Rupp left in 2016. Chris called Chance their secret weapon and certainly his abilities & range have allowed them to expand their repertoire. & I love his voice also. I can't pick a favourite as every time I hear one in a solo they are at that moment my favourite. If you want to see how well they blend, Helplessly Hoping by Crosby Stills & Nash is awesome, and being a singer you'll probably appreciate it even more than me.😁
This Swedish hymn has never been sung better! They're just incredible!
Please go down the Home Free rabbit hole! :)
You won't overlook the bass in HF....Tim is a beast...often takes lead, and hits you in the guts! The solo you heard was the beatboxer....Austin then took over, he is the High Tenor
Adam Rupp is the one that does all the percussion and he was the one that sang all is well, he was standing next to Rob (glasses)
Adam Rupp, the guy that did the harmonica and the group's human drum kit,, and the one with a ponytail, yep.. this is few of their videos where you can actually see him sing.
Another video is "My Country 'Tis of Thee", and ooooh the harmonies of that one is really great as well
The one you said you didn't think you had heard was Austin Briwn who is the one doing most of the lead in Man...Sorrow. He is their super high tenor.. the beatbox is Adam Rupp who did the "it is well" part.
Don't know if anyone ever answered your question, but Tim said in an interview that they filmed it in The Swiss Alps with a drone.
Austin Brown is first Tenor, Rob with the beard is 2nd Tenor...Bass is Tim Foust, Baritone is Adam Chance (just Chance), Beatboxer is Adam Rupp...
🥰🥰🥰🥰...thanks coach..love yah..be safe always..
#subscriptionsquad
The blonde haired guy is Adam Rupp and he's the one that does the beat boxing. He's also one of the founding members of Home Free, along with his brother Chris. You've now started down a rabbit hole and you can't stop. Here's a few songs you should check out. Their cover of End of the Road by Boyz to Men. Then Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash. Then the live version of the Josh Turner song Your Man.
You commented on the bass starting the song. It made me think back to my youth. I believe it was George Beverly Shea who made this song so well known and popular. He sang for the Billy Graham Crusade and this was something of his trademark song. My point -- he had a rich, smooth bass voice, so for me hearing a bass start this song is perfectly natural.
Yeah! Home Free! This is the best version of this hymn ever.❤️
Thank you thank you for your reactions you have an awesome spirit so glad I found you
Thank you for a great reaction, new viewer and new subscriber. Would love to hear more reactions to Home Free. Adam Rupp is the beatboxer and sang the "It is well" part. Austin Brown is there sky high tenor and sang the last part of the song. They were is Austria for an acapella festival and saw the Amazing scenery and decided to bring over their video crew and shoot this song. So glad they did, the Austrian Alps are Stunning !!!! Would love a reaction to "When A Man Loves a Woman" by Home Free.
