You just stumbled on the best of the best. Home Free makes you forget there are no instruments. They are so different. Once you become a Home Fry (Home Free Fan) you never go back. Hope it piqued your interest to check out more, they 150 plus videos and not a bad song in the bunch. Thank you for the awesome reaction!
They really got us hooked with this song, never knew what to expect till we watched and listened to it and it was ammmmmzing 💯👌👍🏽 we’ll be checking out more of their songs.👍🏽
They also do some really great funny videos, while being magnificent. All about that bass, butts remix, country fried pop Medley, champagne taste on a beer budget. Mind blowing harmony & exquisite talent, How great thou art, blue ain't your color, do you hear what I hear, o holy night. When they do covers, it's really best to be familiar with the original, just to see how they are KNOWN for putting the famous "Home Free Spin" on everything they do. New sub after seeing this, looking for more Home Free. Ring of Fire, Johnny Cash cover, but the sing off version is best. 🥰
This song is very very old. It is known to have been 1st written down in 1913, but is believed to be perhaps 30 years older. I was 1st known to be recorded in 1928. WELCOME to the world of Home Free !! I'm prejudiced, but to me the best acapella band of all-time
Wow… they really did amazing with this song, so glad it was recommended and we loved everything about this song. Will be checking out more from them .👍🏽👌💯
@@EbonyIvoryReact check out the song they dropped a few hours ago....it's just awesome. A cover of Rascal Flatts "Bless the broken road" a lot of folks use this in their weddings. Home Free takes it to next level
@@EbonyIvoryReact Check out their version of O HOLY NIGHT!!! It is perfection, no instruments, and they are better that CELINE and BARBRA's version's by far. It was done in 2014!
I actually liked the original version from the movie "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" By Dan Tyminski, but in the movie it was sang by the fictional "Soggy Bottom Boys", led by George Clooney. It is actually a really good movie by the Coen brothers, based loosely on Homer's "The Oddessy".
These guys are something different, they have a beatboxer that makes the drum sounds, people call him a freak of nature or a human drum kit. They do about every genre, Covers and also their originals but add that country flair to it and take country songs and add an upbeat to them. I don't care much for country music, but I love home Free. Check out their Cover of "End Of The Road" or "Folsom Prison Blues" also check out their original "Dreamer". Thanks for reacting! I am a new sub.
If you liked the “harmonica”, you might want to check out a song they just released last week “workin for a livin”. He does a harmonica solo in that which shows how much he’s improved that ‘instrument’ since this video. That one also is an example of their comedic side. You get to see their goofy personalities shine.
The best acapella group out today. Every sound you hear is made with their mouths. This was a cover, and they have over 120+ covers and original songs on video, so you have a lot of songs to choose from. I suggest How Great Thou Art or Ring Of Fire. Enjoy!
Yep, this is a really good cover of an epic song. Home Free can do ANY musical genre and do it well. I keep hoping they'll do something classical. I think they'd slay Mozart!
Thank you for reacting to Home Free! May I suggest " ADAM RUPP LIVE SOLO" Beatboxer/Vocal Percussionist " END OF THE ROAD" " HILLBILLY BONE" " BLUE AIN'T YOUR COLOR" " WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN" " TAKE ME HOME COUNTRY ROADS" Be prepared for a large uptick in your subs because once the Home Fries ( true fans of Home Free! We are a huge loyal family) see you reacting they are going to be swarming here! Excited to see your journey down the deep rabbit hole of Home Free! They are phenomenally talented and wonderful gentlemen with beautiful hearts! God bless y'all! ❤️😀🍑🍟
You have just found the Acapella group that is much more than an acapella grouo. They do all genre's. You will NEVER miss not having any "real" instruments.
Welcome to Home Free. We fans call ourselves Home Fries. There are so many songs to explore with this group. To get a feel for what beatboxer Adam Rupp can do, listen to his drum solo.
It has been rumored that Adam Rupp (the beatboxer) eats drum kits for breakfast. His bandmates have been known to affectionately refer to him as "Freak of Nature". And Tim Foust (the bass) has been known to blow speakers during their live concerts with his low notes. They do have some amazing harmonies. They're all very, very talented & blend together so well.
They all have got amazing talents, raw gifts , I really appreciate what they do, it’s amazing. Love this song, can’t wait to check out more of their songs…. 👍🏽👌
The sound in the beginning is a jaw harp and was actually made by Adam Chance, not Adam Rupp, who is the beatboxer extraordinaire, the Man who swallowed the drum kit ❤️ subbed for more Home Free...
Adam has apparently swallowed everything that ever made a percussive sound, including castanets and the racking mechanism of a shotgun. The sounds that come out of his mouth is something I will never wrap my head around.
"I don't like a capella". My thoughts--"Just wait until you hear good a capella". Home Free is fabulous and I can recommend anything of theirs. There are several other really great a capella artists you might want to check out. Voice Play is great, Pentatonix is wonderful, Voctave is beyond compare (11 members and the chords and harmonies are out of this world), and Peter Hollens is wonderful as well (does solo work and duets with others; but don't let that stop you; Peter is the master of overdubbing and he does a lot of harmonizing with himself). You should really check out Peter Hollens with Tim Foust (the bass singer you heard here) doing a cover of "Misty Mountains" from "the Hobbit". It's incredible. It's just the two of them but it sounds like a full choir because of the overlaying of Tim's and Peter's voice.
Wow… completely mind blowing, that wasn’t expected , but we are wowed, can’t wait to explore and enjoy this amazing band.. thanks for the suggestions we’ll love to check them out.. thanks for sharing all these with us..🙏💯👍🏽
@@wtimmins Actually Geoff is the bass for VoicePlay, not Home Free, but I can how it is easy to mix up Geoff and Tim. Also check out Geoff's version Country Roads Take Me Home.
Oh man, you guys are in for a treat! The home free rabbit hole is deep and wonderful. Welcome to the home frys. Oh, and no watching "Mayday" until you cover four or five more songs from them.
This song was also in the Movie with George Clooney - Oh Brother where art thou.........I would consider this Blue Grass. But Home Free has done so much more that country. I am a Home Fry......
I am very eclectic with music. I can usually find something exceptional in any genre to enjoy, but I have to say that the new a cappella is not you grandparents Barber Shop variety. There are 3 groups who have refined this genre past the old school. 1) Home Free ~ cross any genre but with a different take on Country, R&B, Pop, Gospel, Rock, and yes even Christmas music. 2) Pentatonix ~ Pop, Evo, Christmas Music unique versions of popular music. 3) Voice Play ~ Disney music (complete with costume and theatrical presentation), Pop, Unique Genres like Viking Sea Shanty adaptations, and Themes from movies. All 3 of these groups have unique styles and takes on main stream music. The harmonies are all on point and as a whole surprising. You never know what surprises are in store, even if they all at some time may cover the same song, it's like 3 amazing presentations that are completely satisfying listening that stand successfully on their own. Ivory, prepare to discover a whole new a cappella that will definitely surprise and hopefully delight you. For Christmas, I would suggest Home Free's "Do You Hear What I Hear", Pentatonix"s "Mary Did You Know" and Voice Play's "Mission: Jingle Bells"
All we can say is that the experience was mind blowing 🤯 this is going to to be an amazing experience, can wait to go deeper in lot the rabbit hole.. we’ll be checking out the other bands suggested too. Thanks for sharing this with us. 🙏💯👍🏽
Welcome to the rabbit hole. Get comfy, this will take a while. Don't expect to size them up after a few tunes though, they cove a W I D E range of styles, all perfectly. Excellent reaction btw, I'll look for more.
One of the best things about Home Free is that their versatlity. They can do any genre of music (and do it well). The can do very serious stuff (like "How Great Thou Art" and "Auld Lange Syne") and then then can do silly stuff (like "Never Gonna Give You Up" and the "Sea Shanty Medley"). It ALL sounds good!
Wow… have gotten that from a few people, We trust they are gonna be amazing.. can’t wait to listen and watch… thanks for the suggestions and subscribing. 🙏👍🏽
It's an old (early 1900's) folk song. Most famous for being featured in the movie 'Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?'. Home Free identifies as country, but they sing every genre and style, and do it brilliantly. From Hillbilly Bone (pure country), to End of the Road (Boys to Men classic R&B), to Working for a Living (Huey Lewis 80's rock)... they do it all!
Never seen that movie, we’ll have to check it out too.. it’s nice that the band do different genres which makes it more interesting to check their songs out. Thanks 🙏 👌
@@EbonyIvoryReact If you check their Butts Remix (or Butts Medley) and their Country Fried Pop Medley you'll hear bits of music from several genres: rap, pop, rock, etc. Great stuff and lots of fun. Oh yeah, there's the Guilty Pleasures and All About That Bass (originally by Megan Trainor; she liked their take on it). Enjoy!
These guys are the best. Everyone has incredible talent. The performance is so great. Their voices are absolutely unique. You absolutely have to listen to more of HF. The Ring Of Fire, Sea Shanty Medley and In The Blood are very nice songs. Good reaction!
It’s so hard to recommend a specific song from Home Free to react to next, because they are all so good! But please do react to them some more. Folsom Prison Blues is a cover they did during quarantine (each guy recorded separately from their homes) and it’s one of my favs.
You are right, we’ve got lots of sup and we really don’t know which to start from , but we do hope to check out maybe all the songs they have 😀 as time goes on, thanks for the suggestions, we’ll be checking it out too. 👍🏽🙏
I just subbed because I absolutely LOVE watching someone new to Home Free!! That was a great reaction. They have changed the minds of many who arent normally fans of a capella. I promise you that they are unlike any other a capella group out there. They are primarily country but do several genres of music and they're all great! Their versatility, talent, and ranges are unmatched.Every single member is multi-talented. And to top it off, these guys are truly good people, untainted by fame, who appreciate their fans and care about people..all people. And the kicker is that they have the best sense of humor and show it alot! Cant wait to see you react to more of them. 💗
That’s amazing… we never expected to get so hooked, it was really an amazing experience listening to that song, they delivered it so good. That’s what we call raw talent.. glad we found them, we’ll definitely be checking out more songs from them as people have already suggested some already.. thanks for subscribing 🙏👍🏽
Loved the reactions!! Welcome to the wonderland of Home Free. They cover a wide range of genres to perfection, making each song their own while staying true to the original. They also have their own original songs. Have yet to hear a less than perfect song by them. Thanks again for the great reactions! Hope you'll join all of us "Home Fries" here in the Home Free Rabbit Hole. You won't be disappointed.
Thanks so much, this song is really amazing, we enjoyed every bit of it. Will definitely be checking out more of the bands songs .we are ready to dive into this rabbit hole. 👍🏽👍🏽
I started falling in love with a Capella groups about 3 years ago, and never looked back.....just the skill alone, in creating instruments like in a band, with just their voices, sets these groups apart from all the rest, and their skills are beyond mention! Another thing I also appreciate as well, is they are able to cross genres with ease, as in the case, where Home Free is generally Country, they can also do soul, rock pop, opera, and everything in-between. I would love you to check out their version of Johnny Cash’s, Folsom Prison Blues, just so you can see their versatility 😊
Hi from the north. I recommend: Helplessly hoping and End of the road. 2 of my favorites, of many favorites I hasten to add. They are so versatile musicians and not just technical perfect. It feels good.
Versatility in music is one thing I love in a band, can’t wait to explore and enjoy this band… thanks for the suggestions we’ll be checking them out. 💯👍🏽🙏
Im a long time Home Fry (Home Free Fan) and you are just touching the surface of this group. It is amazing what these guys can do. I have seen tons of first reactions to this group and this song is the main one that first introduces people to this group. Love to see ur reaction to their cover of when a man loves a woman or end of the road by boys to men. Please keep going down this road/ rabbit hole.
Yep that odd sound was meant to sound like a jaw harp - a tiny brass harp with a copper/brass twanging spring that you put up to your mouth and hum through while plucking the twanger. Chance (Adam Chance), the baritone in the dark vest did that sound using harmonic overtone singing (aka Tibetan throat singing).
Amazing… these guys are so good in what they do.. that’s what we call raw talent… the song is musically rich . Can’t wait to check out more songs from them.💯👍🏽
I just subbed just because of Home Free.....i'm a home fry for sure. They are my favorite a cappella band, but Voiceplay and Pentatonix are great as well. Welcome to the world of 5 of the nicest, most talented, fun-loving guys. Any song you choose is a winner. I recommend Country Fried Pop Medley, it's great !!
They are incredibly talented and you will be amazed as you explore their other work! I would suggest that you try their "Ring of fire" and "Fulsome prison blues".
Home Free is the winner of Season 4 of NBC's The Sing-Off which is a competition for A Capella vocal bands, so musical instruments are NOT allowed. Although Home Free represented themselves as "country" a Capella, their albums include various genre, i.e. R&B, anthems, gospel, pop and so on. Thanks for reacting and appreciating HF. Pls check out their other songs.
Wow… such an amazing band really, wondered how we never got to hear about them, but glad we are finally here and enjoying it, we’ll be checking out more of their songs. Thanks for watching our channel.🙏
He didn't smile as he said "Let's see. I'm not a fan of a capella." - I thought: well that just might change. You picked out some of the amazing qualities of this band. I predict that you will become the type of fans known as "Home Frys". Try their awesome "How Great Thou Art" and their hilarious cover of "Workin' for a Living". As another mentioned, try their cover of "Ring of Fire" with Avi Kaplan from Pentatonix. And then try "Amazing Grace" and "Hallelujah" by Pentatonix plus their amazing "Bohemian Rhapsody". You won't believe the number of Home Frys and Pentaholics who will migrate to your channel to see you discover these bands. [Subscribed]
Yea, really funny 😄 Ebony loves a Capella but Ivory didn’t, but he was definitely was blown away 😁… he’s gonna be watching and listening to more.. thanks for the suggestions we will definitely be checking those out too, though we have seen Hallelujah by Pentathonix only needs to be edited and posted… so ready to explore their rabbit hole….💯👍🏽🙏
'Man of Constant Sorrow' is a blue grass song written by Dick Burnett of Kentucky & first published around 1913. It's been covered many times, but most people now know it from the movie 'O Brother, where art thou'. Home Free's cover is my personal favorite - by a wide margin.
I found these guys last year. This was the first song I ever heard from them & I was instantly hooked & became a homefry. The talent of these 5 men is insane. Together they are a perfect fit & complement each other so well. There bass singer Tim Foust is the best in the business & Adam Rupp their beatboxer extraordinaire can make any sounds & is in a class by himself. Enjoy the journey into their talent, skill & humor.
THIS GROUP IS PHENOMENOL!!! EVERY SOUND THAT YOU HEAR COMES FROM THE MOUTH! TIM FAUST, THE BASS, HAS A 5 OCTAVE RANGE. ADAM RUP, THE BEAT BOXER, IS A 2 TIME WORLD CHAMPION!!! THOUGH COUNTRY IS THEIR MAIN TYPE OF MUSIC, THEY COVER ALL GENRES OF MUSIC. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF ADAM CHANCE, THEY HAVE ALL BEEN TOGETHER FOR 15 TO 20 YEARS. ADAM CHANCE TOOK CHRISS RUPPS PLACE WHEN HE LEFT ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO. THEY ARE MEMBERS OF THE GRAND OLE OPRY. AND WERE THE WINNER OF THE T.V. SHOW,"THE SING OFF" AROUND 2001! THEY HAVE AN EXTENSIVE CATALOGUE OF OVER 160 SONGS. SOME OF THEIR DONGS ARE COVERS, AND SOME ARE ORIGINALS. TIM AND AUSTIN, THE HIGH TENOR, HAVE WRITTEN SEVERAL GREAT SONGS! THIS IS A DEEP RABBIT HOLE THAT YOU NEED TO DELVE INTO YOURSELVES, BUT BELIEVE ME, IT WILL TAKE AWHILE. THEY DO NOT HAVE A LEADER, OR MAIN LEAD SINGER. THEY ALL SING LEAD ACCORDING TO WHAT THE SONG CALLS FOR. "BYE. BYE, AMERICAN PIE" WITH DON MCLEAN , THE ORIGINAL SINGER OF THE SONG IS A GOOD SONG FOR YOU TO PLAY NEXT. THEY HAVE SANG WITH KENNY ROGERS, JEWEL, THE OAK RIDGE BOYS, DON MCLEAN, AND SO MANY OTHERS. YOU JUST HAVE TO EXPLORE THEIR MATERIAL.I ABSOLUTE LOVE THEM. EACH ONE BRINGS A VERY SPECIAL QUALITY TO THE GROUP AND THEY ALWAYS SEEM TO HAVE SO MUCH FUN TOGETHER! THEY DO CONCERTS AND HAVE TOURED ALL AROUND THE WORLD. THE FOLLOWERS ARE CALLED "HOMEFRIES". AND, WE ARE EXTREMELY LOYAL TO THEM. I BELIEVE YHAT IS ENOUGH TO GET YOU A STARTED. START GOING DOWN THAT RSBBIT HOLE!!! GOOD LUCK!
Just amazing… they left me speechless, all we look forward to do is, explore these amazing singers, enjoy them and dive more into this rabbit hole… thanks for sharing all these with us , much appreciated.🙏🙏👍🏽
"Man of Constant Sorrow" is a classis C/W song that dates back to the 1920s. Home Free is an a cappela group that specializes in C/W songs, but have proven themselves adept at a multitude of genres. Adam Rupp, the beatboxer, has won international competitions in his craft. All members have degrees in music, and all take turns singing lead. Tim Foust, the bass, has a 5-octave range, having been originally trained as a tenor - he's obviously maintained his upper registers. I encourage you to listen to their other videos, and would like seeing your reactions to them. The group is worth following.
Thanks for the bits of information you shared here with us, this song really is amazing, will be checking out Adam Rupp’s solo at some point too.. more reactions to their songs coming. Thanks again.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
One of the best reactions to this I’ve seen, no constant pauses n they retained they’re thoughts until the end!! New sub here n keep up the great work!!
I'm glad you liked it! This song is bluegrass music. Similar to country, but not the same. I love the original song and love what they do with it. Super talented guys. Enjoy!
The Vocal Percussionist is Adam Rupp, cofounder of the group. There are videos of him doing a "DRum Solo" that he does during the concerts. The most reacted to is about 6 years old and he is wearing red flannel...he has only gotten better. Their latest, Working for a living, he has a major Harmonica solo. Also, the live version of 9 to 5, there is a beatboxing breakdown where they all beat box. The sound you are talking about is a jaw harp...and Adam Chance (pictured at the end) is the one making it. The reason I like Adam and his percussion is because he is true to regular drums...and doesn't overdo it with gimicky stuff...
Thanks for sharing this bits of information with us, this band is definitely amazing…👍🏽👌we will be checking out more songs from them , we’ve got lots of suggestions already, so ready to explore and enjoy this band. 👍🏽
Modern a Cappella is a lot different than most expect. Be prepared, it's a very deep rabbit hole you have come to. Great reaction and thank you for letting the song/video play before commenting!
They really are a talented group, you have no idea yet lol Another great song and video of theirs is End of the Road, this one will blow your mind! Great reaction, you are in for a real surprise with these guys.
I spent the entire evening last night watching Home Free videos (and a few "first reactions", as well)...will spend a good part of my day today doing the same. So far, "A Man Of Constant Sorrow" is my favorite, but I'm sure that could change. I'm a fan for life now! I didn't even know about "first reaction" videos until last night and I wish for all the world, I had videoed my own first reaction...I was literally blown away!
Wow interesting story and experience, almost the same as ours, it was recommended and we reacted to it , watching them for the very first time and we were blown away 🤯… not seen any other yet but will be checking out some that have been recommended… ( first reaction videos are really interesting)😄 thanks for watching and sharing your experience with us.🙏💯👍🏽
Welcome to home free!! They have many many more incredible songs to hear!! Listen to “How Great Thou Art””; “Bless the Broken Road”; “Helplessly Hoping”; “End of the Road”; & “When a Man Loves a Woman”!! Love your surprised Reaction!!
These guys are amazing. You have four fantastic vocalists and the best beatboxer in the world. They sing both covers and original music and although a country acapella group perform music from many different genres. Ivory, I know you loved the beatboxing, but if you want to hear their amazing harmonies listen to their version of Helplessly Holing where all five of them sing. To give you a taste of their versatility I recommend When a Man Loves a Woman, End of the Road, Crazy, How Great Thou Art and, just for fun, Never Gonna Give You Up, the Butts Remix and Workin for a Livin. Enjoy and welcome to the rabbit hole.
That’s sound interesting, listening to them all sing.🤔 can’t wait to check it out, thanks for the suggestion, and we are glad to be here to explore and enjoy this amazing band.✌️👍🏽👌
Home Free is in a league of their own and their style of acapella is so different than other vocal groups because of their multifaceted talent & the wide variety of genres they cover!!! Just check out their cover of Boyz II Men's song "End Of The Road."
That beginning sound was of a Jews Harp, which was done by Chance, who was the last person you see on the video as it ended. Even the beat boxer can just plain sing also. They can all make sounds of instruments. Awesome group.
You might get buried in requests for more Home Free songs. They have a large and loyal fan base and a deep selection of songs. Some are covers, some are original, all are good. A more contemporary covers they did were "End of the Road" and "When a man loves a woman". A more theatrical group of a capella singers is Voiceplay. Check out their mashup of "Moana" featuring Rachel Potter. A more conservative a cappella group is Pentatonix. They do an excellent job on "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Hallelujah". They are all exceptional. I'm a new sub
Wow… it’s crazy, we’ve got lots imof suggestions here… we’ll be checking out the other bands too, and thanks for suggesting and subscribing much appreciated.🙏💯👍🏽
This was a cover, the song came from the 1900's and has been sung by many but this is the best. HF sings many kinds of music but often with a country twist. Known for their harmonies and wide voice ranges. Recommended songs , Ring of Fire, Helplessly Hoping, Misty Mountain, Buttes Medley, Sea Shanties, etc.
This song is amazing, haven’t heard from others who sang it, but this band wowed us completely.. thanks for suggesting these songs, we’ll be checking them out as soon as we can.
My husband's objection to a cappella music is that it typically sounds "empty" to him. Home Free does an amazing job of sounding like a band, vs a group of guys singing together. I think you would also enjoy Voiceplay for the same reason. They sound musically rich and full. I would suggest their cover of Carry On My Wayward Son.
A Capella really makes one appreciate music in its raw nature, where you can hear everything in it… and I must say, Home Free has got that raw talent… amazing band and truly rich. Thanks for the suggestion we’ll be checking them out too.✌️👍🏽
This song is quite old…was written in 1927. It was also done in the George Clooney movie…”oh, Brother Where Art Thou” ? It was sung in the movie by The Soggy Bottom Boys. Their harmonies are beyond tight. The first instrument sound was not done by the beat boxer, but by the baritone singer of the group, it’s called a Jaw Harp. The Home Free rabbit hole is a fun trip…..jump in & enjoy the ride, it’s Great down here 🙃🥰
These guy are raw talent, their song is musically rich and enjoy every bit of this song, we can’t wait to check out more from them, we plan on enjoying this ride into the rabbit hole… 🥰👍🏽💯
Home Free's Beatboxer Adam Rupp does a live Drum Solo!!! You'll also Love "Pentatonix" and "Voiceplay"!!! These 3 acapella groups are Top of The Line!!! Y'all Won't be disappointed!!!
Yea, lots of people have suggested to listen to Voiceplay too, we just started our journey into Pentatonix’s world too, with our first reaction posted few days ago… Voiceplay will be coming soon and more from Homefree and Adam Rupp. Thanks for the suggestions.👍🏽🙏💯
Welcome to Home Free. We are called "Home Fries", the fans of Home Free. Home Free has an extensive RUclips catalog that showcase them doing different genre's and styles. Enjoy the ride.
Oh it's real my friend!!! This song is from the movie "O Brother Where Art Thou? Starring George Clooney and its on the movie's soundtrack performed by The Soggy Bottom Boys...Home Free covered it, put their own flair & twist to it, in order to give it their own unique style!!!
I really love Home Free, and first saw them on the show The Sing Off... and I really recommend watching the episode where they perform Ring of Fire. The official version that they did featuring Avi Kaplan is great, but there is something about watching the first performance of it is even better. They are really such a fun group to watch and I always love to recommend their Butts Medley if you want to laugh while you listen. I add my support to the comments that you shouldn't watch Mayday (It is fantastic too) until you have seen more of their work to see how they 'normally' perform, and then Mayday shows you the range that they all have.
Wow.. we look forward to seeing May Day, we really are waiting to be wowed…. Plus we will likely check out their first performance of Ring of fire, so much to check out with this amazing band… thanks for sharing this with us..✌️👍🏽
THe song is over a hundred years old, it was written 1913 and is a Bluegrass song. The Soggy Bottom Boys did a version of it for the movie, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, starring George Clooney. These guys are a great band, and have tons of videos on you tube, some covers, some hyms, some original and some just fun. Check out Butts Remix. Oh Yeah welcome to club new Home Fries.
Interesting to know, we really love this version, even though we have not heard the others… we’ll definitely be checking out more songs from this amazing band…🙏👍🏽
They also tour the UK and the rest of Europe. Catch a live performance. You will see a show like no other. I believe they also have parts of their tours on video.
I love your reaction, and I love Home Free ! To hear some of their most amazing work, I recommend: "When a Man Loves a Woman", "Helplessly Hoping", "End of the Road" and "American Pie". Other favorites include 'Ring of Fire" and "Folsom Prison Blues".
Recovered this song. It's from brother Where art thou the movie. If you want to hear some more modern music, or classic rock acapella, you absolutely have to listen to Pentatonix. There's one free Grammys now.
If you want to see another incredible talent search for Geoff Castellucci Far over the misty mountain cold!! This song will give you chills and hit you right in the heart. His voice is so deep and he also sings all parts. At first I thought this was four different guys singing but then realized it’s the same guy just in different costumes. He is absolutely incredible and when I first heard the song I can actually say it affected me in a way that not many songs can do. I’m not a big fan of these types of singing either but home free is incredible and now I found Geoff Castellucci who sings with voice play but just this one song from him solo is incredible!!!
If you haven't seen it yet check out Home Free Adam Rupp's drum solo. And another song that has his harmonica is Working for a Living, their cover of the 1982 Huey Lewis and the News hit using the movie Anchorman as a template. Another good copy from a movie is This is How We Roll, aping The Big Lebowski.
You just stumbled on the best of the best. Home Free makes you forget there are no instruments. They are so different. Once you become a Home Fry (Home Free Fan) you never go back. Hope it piqued your interest to check out more, they 150 plus videos and not a bad song in the bunch. Thank you for the awesome reaction!
They really got us hooked with this song, never knew what to expect till we watched and listened to it and it was ammmmmzing 💯👌👍🏽 we’ll be checking out more of their songs.👍🏽
Listen to How Great Thou Art!! It is so beautiful!
@ Karen Straple we’ll check that out . Thanks 🙏
Check out their drum solo to see just how good Adam is with his beat boxing.
They also do some really great funny videos, while being magnificent.
All about that bass, butts remix, country fried pop Medley, champagne taste on a beer budget.
Mind blowing harmony & exquisite talent,
How great thou art, blue ain't your color, do you hear what I hear, o holy night.
When they do covers, it's really best to be familiar with the original, just to see how they are KNOWN for putting the famous "Home Free Spin" on everything they do.
New sub after seeing this, looking for more Home Free.
Ring of Fire, Johnny Cash cover, but the sing off version is best. 🥰
This song is very very old. It is known to have been 1st written down in 1913, but is believed to be perhaps 30 years older. I was 1st known to be recorded in 1928. WELCOME to the world of Home Free !! I'm prejudiced, but to me the best acapella band of all-time
Wow… they really did amazing with this song, so glad it was recommended and we loved everything about this song. Will be checking out more from them .👍🏽👌💯
@@EbonyIvoryReact you'll also soon be Home Fries (we fans call ourselves that) too. It doesn't take much 😉👊
I guess so, Ebony is already a fan…👊🏽💯 Ivory is gonna join soon😁
@@EbonyIvoryReact check out the song they dropped a few hours ago....it's just awesome. A cover of Rascal Flatts "Bless the broken road" a lot of folks use this in their weddings. Home Free takes it to next level
@ Kevin Clements …. Oh that’s awesome, we’ll definitely be checking it out too, nice one. Thanks for the information, much appreciated.🙏👍🏽
Ivory: "I'm not a fan of acapella"
4 minutes later
Ivory: "I loved it!"
Never say never 😀I guess. Amazing song there.👌
Ikr!!! 🤣
Ya just can't NOT like or be impressed by these guys. I've seen them twice LIVE & their shows are INCREDIBLE!! 🥰
@@EbonyIvoryReact Check out their version of O HOLY NIGHT!!! It is perfection, no instruments, and they are better that CELINE and BARBRA's version's by far. It was done in 2014!
I actually liked the original version from the movie "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" By Dan Tyminski, but in the movie it was sang by the fictional "Soggy Bottom Boys", led by George Clooney. It is actually a really good movie by the Coen brothers, based loosely on Homer's "The Oddessy".

They do about every genre, Covers and also their originals but add that country flair to it and take country songs and add an upbeat to them.

I am a new sub.
Wow… they are definitely amazing, really appreciate what they are doing…. Never got tired of listening to this song.👌👍🏽💯
@@EbonyIvoryReact Roscoe Holcomb 1961 and Later.... Soggy Bottom Boys....best versions
Five unlike really
I enjoyed their "American Pie" video with Don McLean.
If you liked the “harmonica”, you might want to check out a song they just released last week “workin for a livin”. He does a harmonica solo in that which shows how much he’s improved that ‘instrument’ since this video.
That one also is an example of their comedic side. You get to see their goofy personalities shine.
It’s nice to know they do all genres, can’t wait to check more out.. thanks for the suggestion.👌👍🏽💯
Adam creates vocal castanets in the Sea Shanty Medley, too. There's nothing out of bounds for these guys!
Great suggestion 👌
The best acapella group out today. Every sound you hear is made with their mouths. This was a cover, and they have over 120+ covers and original songs on video, so you have a lot of songs to choose from. I suggest How Great Thou Art or Ring Of Fire. Enjoy!
Wow… that’s so amazing, thanks for the suggestion, we’ll be checking it out and more don their songs…👌💯👍🏽
I think "Pentatonix" but I think they mesh well
@@bbylockdemdoors9107 I accidentally left out the word 'country', the best 'country' acapella group.
If you want another Home Free video to react to...try their cover of Boyz2men, "End of the road" it's pretty amazing for some country guys 😉😉👍
Yep, this is a really good cover of an epic song. Home Free can do ANY musical genre and do it well. I keep hoping they'll do something classical. I think they'd slay Mozart!
Sure… we will be glad to check it out and more as soon as we can . Thanks for the suggestion.🙏👌👍🏽
Thank you for reacting to Home Free! May I suggest
" ADAM RUPP LIVE SOLO" Beatboxer/Vocal Percussionist
" END OF THE ROAD"
" HILLBILLY BONE"
" BLUE AIN'T YOUR COLOR"
" WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN"
" TAKE ME HOME COUNTRY ROADS"
Be prepared for a large uptick in your subs because once the Home Fries ( true fans of Home Free! We are a huge loyal family) see you reacting they are going to be swarming here! Excited to see your journey down the deep rabbit hole of Home Free! They are phenomenally talented and wonderful gentlemen with beautiful hearts! God bless y'all! ❤️😀🍑🍟
Wow… it’s gonna be awesome checking out these songs you have suggested here… we’ll definitely be checking them out. Thanks for the recommendation.💯👍🏽
Second "End of the Road", "Blue Ain't Your Color" and "When a Man Loves a Woman" and Adam Rupp's drum solo.
Diggierido (instrument) from Australia
Nice one👍🏽👍🏽
You have just found the Acapella group that is much more than an acapella grouo. They do all genre's. You will NEVER miss not having any "real" instruments.
Wow… love and appreciate what they do, amazing and unique.👌💯👍🏽
Welcome to Home Free. We fans call ourselves Home Fries. There are so many songs to explore with this group. To get a feel for what beatboxer Adam Rupp can do, listen to his drum solo.
Oooh that’s gonna be awesome… will be checking out Adam Rupp’s drum solo.. and also songs from the band…👍🏽👌
It has been rumored that Adam Rupp (the beatboxer) eats drum kits for breakfast. His bandmates have been known to affectionately refer to him as "Freak of Nature". And Tim Foust (the bass) has been known to blow speakers during their live concerts with his low notes. They do have some amazing harmonies. They're all very, very talented & blend together so well.
They all have got amazing talents, raw gifts , I really appreciate what they do, it’s amazing. Love this song, can’t wait to check out more of their songs…. 👍🏽👌
The sound in the beginning is a jaw harp and was actually made by Adam Chance, not Adam Rupp, who is the beatboxer extraordinaire, the Man who swallowed the drum kit ❤️ subbed for more Home Free...
Ebony and Ivory may enjoy listening to Adam Rupp's drum solo. That man is just unbelievable.
Amazing, the song is sooo cool..💯👍🏽👌 thanks for subscribing, we’ll definitely be checking out more songs from this band 💯
@Jan Hankins, amazing we will definitely be checking him out as soon as we can.👌👍🏽
Adam has apparently swallowed everything that ever made a percussive sound, including castanets and the racking mechanism of a shotgun. The sounds that come out of his mouth is something I will never wrap my head around.
Note: the jaw harp is also called the Jew's harp. That's the name I've heard all my life.
"I don't like a capella". My thoughts--"Just wait until you hear good a capella". Home Free is fabulous and I can recommend anything of theirs. There are several other really great a capella artists you might want to check out. Voice Play is great, Pentatonix is wonderful, Voctave is beyond compare (11 members and the chords and harmonies are out of this world), and Peter Hollens is wonderful as well (does solo work and duets with others; but don't let that stop you; Peter is the master of overdubbing and he does a lot of harmonizing with himself). You should really check out Peter Hollens with Tim Foust (the bass singer you heard here) doing a cover of "Misty Mountains" from "the Hobbit". It's incredible. It's just the two of them but it sounds like a full choir because of the overlaying of Tim's and Peter's voice.
Wow… completely mind blowing, that wasn’t expected , but we are wowed, can’t wait to explore and enjoy this amazing band.. thanks for the suggestions we’ll love to check them out.. thanks for sharing all these with us..🙏💯👍🏽
Great suggestions! Another great one is Geoff Castellucci (the bass singer in this video) singing 16 Tons. Just... wow.
@@wtimmins Actually Geoff is the bass for VoicePlay, not Home Free, but I can how it is easy to mix up Geoff and Tim. Also check out Geoff's version Country Roads Take Me Home.
@@danuttall Ah poop. My bad! They are both awesome.
Oh man, you guys are in for a treat! The home free rabbit hole is deep and wonderful. Welcome to the home frys. Oh, and no watching "Mayday" until you cover four or five more songs from them.
Thanks, and noted too… thanks, we’ll keep this in mind. 😁👍🏽👍🏽
@@EbonyIvoryReact This may be the only time you hear a fan group beg you NOT to listen to a song by their favorite artist! :-)
This song was also in the Movie with George Clooney - Oh Brother where art thou.........I would consider this Blue Grass. But Home Free has done so much more that country. I am a Home Fry......
They really amaze us, they did great with this song,,, love everything about the song.👌💯👍🏽
the sound at beginning and end is by Chance back left and is a jews harp
Sounded really awesome… the whole song actually was amazing.👌👍🏽
I am very eclectic with music. I can usually find something exceptional in any genre to enjoy, but I have to say that the new a cappella is not you grandparents Barber Shop variety. There are 3 groups who have refined this genre past the old school. 1) Home Free ~ cross any genre but with a different take on Country, R&B, Pop, Gospel, Rock, and yes even Christmas music. 2) Pentatonix ~ Pop, Evo, Christmas Music unique versions of popular music. 3) Voice Play ~ Disney music (complete with costume and theatrical presentation), Pop, Unique Genres like Viking Sea Shanty adaptations, and Themes from movies. All 3 of these groups have unique styles and takes on main stream music. The harmonies are all on point and as a whole surprising. You never know what surprises are in store, even if they all at some time may cover the same song, it's like 3 amazing presentations that are completely satisfying listening that stand successfully on their own. Ivory, prepare to discover a whole new a cappella that will definitely surprise and hopefully delight you. For Christmas, I would suggest Home Free's "Do You Hear What I Hear", Pentatonix"s "Mary Did You Know" and Voice Play's "Mission: Jingle Bells"
And to see VoicePlay and Home Free together watch Zombies vs Hillbillies - Survivor.
All we can say is that the experience was mind blowing 🤯 this is going to to be an amazing experience, can wait to go deeper in lot the rabbit hole.. we’ll be checking out the other bands suggested too. Thanks for sharing this with us. 🙏💯👍🏽
Welcome to the rabbit hole. Get comfy, this will take a while. Don't expect to size them up after a few tunes though, they cove a W I D E range of styles, all perfectly. Excellent reaction btw, I'll look for more.
Wow… we look forward to be wowed with their amazing songs… thanks 💯👌👍🏽
@@EbonyIvoryReact Y'velkm
One of the best things about Home Free is that their versatlity. They can do any genre of music (and do it well). The can do very serious stuff (like "How Great Thou Art" and "Auld Lange Syne") and then then can do silly stuff (like "Never Gonna Give You Up" and the "Sea Shanty Medley"). It ALL sounds good!
Loved the reaction, you need to watch home free - end of the road and home free - when a man loves a woman. Both are awesome. Subscribed.
Wow… have gotten that from a few people, We trust they are gonna be amazing.. can’t wait to listen and watch… thanks for the suggestions and subscribing. 🙏👍🏽
It's an old (early 1900's) folk song. Most famous for being featured in the movie 'Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?'. Home Free identifies as country, but they sing every genre and style, and do it brilliantly. From Hillbilly Bone (pure country), to End of the Road (Boys to Men classic R&B), to Working for a Living (Huey Lewis 80's rock)... they do it all!
Never seen that movie, we’ll have to check it out too.. it’s nice that the band do different genres which makes it more interesting to check their songs out. Thanks 🙏 👌
@@EbonyIvoryReact If you check their Butts Remix (or Butts Medley) and their Country Fried Pop Medley you'll hear bits of music from several genres: rap, pop, rock, etc. Great stuff and lots of fun. Oh yeah, there's the Guilty Pleasures and All About That Bass (originally by Megan Trainor; she liked their take on it). Enjoy!
They have a a lot good songs and a huge following 👍🏻👍🏻
Yea, I checked them out, really amazing, we’ll be reacting to more songs from them.👍🏽👍🏽
These guys are the best. Everyone has incredible talent. The performance is so great. Their voices are absolutely unique. You absolutely have to listen to more of HF. The Ring Of Fire, Sea Shanty Medley and In The Blood are very nice songs. Good reaction!
Love, love the song, they really did a great job with that song, i definitely will be checking out the suggestions , thanks. 👍🏽👌💯
I love watching reactions to this song. It's become my guilty pleasure in the evenings after putting my son to bed. Thanks for the reaction!
Amazing how they got us so hooked completely mind blowing.🤯💯👍🏽
We "home fries" are glad you reacted to this song. But they do many different types of music. Keep listening! New subscriber.
Awesome, awesome song and band really, we’ll be checking out more songs from them. Thanks for subscribing 💯👌
Home Free will take you to places that you have never imagined. They are worth exploring.
Homefree gave me goosebumps listening and watching them perform… absolutely amazing band.👍🏽👍🏽
Welcome to Home Free.
Every song they do is clear,perfect harmony.
These guys can't be beat in my opion
They are really amazing, glad we found them, can’t wait to see more from them . 👍🏽
It’s so hard to recommend a specific song from Home Free to react to next, because they are all so good! But please do react to them some more. Folsom Prison Blues is a cover they did during quarantine (each guy recorded separately from their homes) and it’s one of my favs.
You are right, we’ve got lots of sup and we really don’t know which to start from , but we do hope to check out maybe all the songs they have 😀 as time goes on, thanks for the suggestions, we’ll be checking it out too. 👍🏽🙏
I just subbed because I absolutely LOVE watching someone new to Home Free!! That was a great reaction. They have changed the minds of many who arent normally fans of a capella. I promise you that they are unlike any other a capella group out there. They are primarily country but do several genres of music and they're all great! Their versatility, talent, and ranges are unmatched.Every single member is multi-talented. And to top it off, these guys are truly good people, untainted by fame, who appreciate their fans and care about people..all people. And the kicker is that they have the best sense of humor and show it alot! Cant wait to see you react to more of them. 💗
That’s amazing… we never expected to get so hooked, it was really an amazing experience listening to that song, they delivered it so good. That’s what we call raw talent.. glad we found them, we’ll definitely be checking out more songs from them as people have already suggested some already.. thanks for subscribing 🙏👍🏽
Loved the reactions!! Welcome to the wonderland of Home Free. They cover a wide range of genres to perfection, making each song their own while staying true to the original. They also have their own original songs. Have yet to hear a less than perfect song by them. Thanks again for the great reactions! Hope you'll join all of us "Home Fries" here in the Home Free Rabbit Hole. You won't be disappointed.
Thanks so much, this song is really amazing, we enjoyed every bit of it. Will definitely be checking out more of the bands songs .we are ready to dive into this rabbit hole. 👍🏽👍🏽
Fell in love with these guys 3 years ago! They do all genres and they are entertainers on top of their magical music!
They are really talented singers.
I just discovered home free and I love theri performance so naturally and awesome.
That’s right .. amazing band 👍🏽💯
Thanks for the video- I love Home Free, each one of the guys is amazingly talented. Try their cover of Folsom Prison Blues please.❤️❤️
Amazing band for sure,thanks for the suggestion, we’ll check the song out .👍🏽
I started falling in love with a Capella groups about 3 years ago, and never looked back.....just the skill alone, in creating instruments like in a band, with just their voices, sets these groups apart from all the rest, and their skills are beyond mention! Another thing I also appreciate as well, is they are able to cross genres with ease, as in the case, where Home Free is generally Country, they can also do soul, rock pop, opera, and everything in-between. I would love you to check out their version of Johnny Cash’s, Folsom Prison Blues, just so you can see their versatility 😊
Home Free is a group of guys with many talents. All sounds are vocal. You should see them in concert. Will blow your mind!!!!! Watch mare please ✅
Amazing… live experience is gonna be mind blowing 🤯 , we’ll be checking out more songs from them.👍🏽👍🏽
Hi from the north. I recommend: Helplessly hoping and End of the road. 2 of my favorites, of many favorites I hasten to add. They are so versatile musicians and not just technical perfect. It feels good.
Versatility in music is one thing I love in a band, can’t wait to explore and enjoy this band… thanks for the suggestions we’ll be checking them out. 💯👍🏽🙏
I never was a fan of acapella but since finding HOME FREE i am now à HOME FRIE all there songs and videos are great
Good to know, this band is definitely amazing…👍🏽👍🏽
Home Free is a wonderful group. Enjoy the ride.
Thank you , we are ready to enjoy this ride.👍🏽👍🏽
They are at the top of their game.
We can see that. Amazing band.💯👍🏽
Im a long time Home Fry (Home Free Fan) and you are just touching the surface of this group. It is amazing what these guys can do. I have seen tons of first reactions to this group and this song is the main one that first introduces people to this group. Love to see ur reaction to their cover of when a man loves a woman or end of the road by boys to men. Please keep going down this road/ rabbit hole.
Amazing, we were wowed, can’t wait to check out more from them. Thanks for the suggestions, we’ll check them out as soon as we can.🙏👍🏽
Yep that odd sound was meant to sound like a jaw harp - a tiny brass harp with a copper/brass twanging spring that you put up to your mouth and hum through while plucking the twanger. Chance (Adam Chance), the baritone in the dark vest did that sound using harmonic overtone singing (aka Tibetan throat singing).
Amazing… these guys are so good in what they do.. that’s what we call raw talent… the song is musically rich . Can’t wait to check out more songs from them.💯👍🏽
Gotta just appreciate PURE TALENT.
Soo true .👌👍🏽
#homefree 👍🏼
I just subbed just because of Home Free.....i'm a home fry for sure. They are my favorite a cappella band, but Voiceplay and Pentatonix are great as well. Welcome to the world of 5 of the nicest, most talented, fun-loving guys. Any song you choose is a winner. I recommend Country Fried Pop Medley, it's great !!
Thanks a lot, we are glad to be here, to enjoy and explore this amazing bands… can’t wait to listen and watch moreeeee👍🏽👌
Don't you just LOVE IT when you get those GOOSEBUMPS on top of GOOSEBUMPS! 💛😂🤘
You can say that again… absolutely amazing 💯👌👍🏽😎
The song is very old but most recently got fame in the movie “Oh, Brother where art thou”. Every song Home Free covers is amazing!
The band is really good at what they do. 👍🏽💯
They are incredibly talented and you will be amazed as you explore their other work! I would suggest that you try their "Ring of fire" and "Fulsome prison blues".
Wow.. we are really excited to be checking out all these amazing songs, will definitely see how they go. Thanks for the suggestions 👍🏽👌
Home Free is the winner of Season 4 of NBC's The Sing-Off which is a competition for A Capella vocal bands, so musical instruments are NOT allowed. Although Home Free represented themselves as "country" a Capella, their albums include various genre, i.e. R&B, anthems, gospel, pop and so on. Thanks for reacting and appreciating HF. Pls check out their other songs.
Wow… such an amazing band really, wondered how we never got to hear about them, but glad we are finally here and enjoying it, we’ll be checking out more of their songs. Thanks for watching our channel.🙏
He didn't smile as he said "Let's see. I'm not a fan of a capella." - I thought: well that just might change. You picked out some of the amazing qualities of this band. I predict that you will become the type of fans known as "Home Frys". Try their awesome "How Great Thou Art" and their hilarious cover of "Workin' for a Living". As another mentioned, try their cover of "Ring of Fire" with Avi Kaplan from Pentatonix. And then try "Amazing Grace" and "Hallelujah" by Pentatonix plus their amazing "Bohemian Rhapsody". You won't believe the number of Home Frys and Pentaholics who will migrate to your channel to see you discover these bands. [Subscribed]
Yea, really funny 😄 Ebony loves a Capella but Ivory didn’t, but he was definitely was blown away 😁… he’s gonna be watching and listening to more.. thanks for the suggestions we will definitely be checking those out too, though we have seen Hallelujah by Pentathonix only needs to be edited and posted… so ready to explore their rabbit hole….💯👍🏽🙏
@@EbonyIvoryReact Terrific ! Cheers to you both. I look forward to more !
@David Post … thanks man… 😄 more definitely coming.💯👌
Love, love Home Free - the only all-vocal country group!! Please react to more Home Free!!💗
We’ll definitely do that. Great guys and talent .💯👌👍🏽
Amazing…. Really appreciate nice music. 👌👍🏽💯
That’s so right .👍🏽👍🏽💯
'Man of Constant Sorrow' is a blue grass song written by Dick Burnett of Kentucky & first published around 1913. It's been covered many times, but most people now know it from the movie 'O Brother, where art thou'. Home Free's cover is my personal favorite - by a wide margin.
This band must be pretty amazing, from this song we’ve listened to, we can’t wait to check them out more.👍🏽
I found these guys last year. This was the first song I ever heard from them & I was instantly hooked & became a homefry. The talent of these 5 men is insane. Together they are a perfect fit & complement each other so well. There bass singer Tim Foust is the best in the business & Adam Rupp their beatboxer extraordinaire can make any sounds & is in a class by himself. Enjoy the journey into their talent, skill & humor.
We find this band absolutely amazing… wow. They’ve got raw talent, one of a kind. 👍🏽 we will dey be checking out more of their songs…👌👍🏽
THIS GROUP IS PHENOMENOL!!! EVERY SOUND THAT YOU HEAR COMES FROM THE MOUTH! TIM FAUST, THE BASS, HAS A 5 OCTAVE RANGE. ADAM RUP, THE BEAT BOXER, IS A 2 TIME WORLD CHAMPION!!! THOUGH COUNTRY IS THEIR MAIN TYPE OF MUSIC, THEY COVER ALL GENRES OF MUSIC. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF ADAM CHANCE, THEY HAVE ALL BEEN TOGETHER FOR 15 TO 20 YEARS. ADAM CHANCE TOOK CHRISS RUPPS PLACE WHEN HE LEFT ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO. THEY ARE MEMBERS OF THE GRAND OLE OPRY. AND WERE THE WINNER OF THE T.V. SHOW,"THE SING OFF" AROUND 2001! THEY HAVE AN EXTENSIVE CATALOGUE OF OVER 160 SONGS. SOME OF THEIR DONGS ARE COVERS, AND SOME ARE ORIGINALS. TIM AND AUSTIN, THE HIGH TENOR, HAVE WRITTEN SEVERAL GREAT SONGS! THIS IS A DEEP RABBIT HOLE THAT YOU NEED TO DELVE INTO YOURSELVES, BUT BELIEVE ME, IT WILL TAKE AWHILE. THEY DO NOT HAVE A LEADER, OR MAIN LEAD SINGER. THEY ALL SING LEAD ACCORDING TO WHAT THE SONG CALLS FOR. "BYE. BYE, AMERICAN PIE" WITH DON MCLEAN , THE ORIGINAL SINGER OF THE SONG IS A GOOD SONG FOR YOU TO PLAY NEXT. THEY HAVE SANG WITH KENNY ROGERS, JEWEL, THE OAK RIDGE BOYS, DON MCLEAN, AND SO MANY OTHERS. YOU JUST HAVE TO EXPLORE THEIR MATERIAL.I ABSOLUTE LOVE THEM. EACH ONE BRINGS A VERY SPECIAL QUALITY TO THE GROUP AND THEY ALWAYS SEEM TO HAVE SO MUCH FUN TOGETHER! THEY DO CONCERTS AND HAVE TOURED ALL AROUND THE WORLD. THE FOLLOWERS ARE CALLED "HOMEFRIES". AND, WE ARE EXTREMELY LOYAL TO THEM. I BELIEVE YHAT IS ENOUGH TO GET YOU A STARTED. START GOING DOWN THAT RSBBIT HOLE!!! GOOD LUCK!
Just amazing… they left me speechless, all we look forward to do is, explore these amazing singers, enjoy them and dive more into this rabbit hole… thanks for sharing all these with us , much appreciated.🙏🙏👍🏽
AWESOME HARMONY...I fell in LOVE my 1st song...🔥💯❤
Just like we did..😀✌️🥰
Just subbed.. love Home Free! Their cover of End of the Road is amazing!
Amazing, we will be checking it out really soon. Thanks for the suggestion.🙏👍🏽
"Man of Constant Sorrow" is a classis C/W song that dates back to the 1920s. Home Free is an a cappela group that specializes in C/W songs, but have proven themselves adept at a multitude of genres. Adam Rupp, the beatboxer, has won international competitions in his craft. All members have degrees in music, and all take turns singing lead. Tim Foust, the bass, has a 5-octave range, having been originally trained as a tenor - he's obviously maintained his upper registers. I encourage you to listen to their other videos, and would like seeing your reactions to them. The group is worth following.
Thanks for the bits of information you shared here with us, this song really is amazing, will be checking out Adam Rupp’s solo at some point too.. more reactions to their songs coming. Thanks again.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
One of the best reactions to this I’ve seen, no constant pauses n they retained they’re thoughts until the end!! New sub here n keep up the great work!!
Thanks for subscribing and the kind words… 🙏👍🏽
I'm glad you liked it! This song is bluegrass music. Similar to country, but not the same. I love the original song and love what they do with it. Super talented guys. Enjoy!
Amazing guys, highly talented.. love the song absolutely.👌
The Vocal Percussionist is Adam Rupp, cofounder of the group. There are videos of him doing a "DRum Solo" that he does during the concerts. The most reacted to is about 6 years old and he is wearing red flannel...he has only gotten better. Their latest, Working for a living, he has a major Harmonica solo. Also, the live version of 9 to 5, there is a beatboxing breakdown where they all beat box. The sound you are talking about is a jaw harp...and Adam Chance (pictured at the end) is the one making it. The reason I like Adam and his percussion is because he is true to regular drums...and doesn't overdo it with gimicky stuff...
Thanks for sharing this bits of information with us, this band is definitely amazing…👍🏽👌we will be checking out more songs from them , we’ve got lots of suggestions already, so ready to explore and enjoy this band. 👍🏽
Man of Constant Sorrow was first published in 1913. It's first recording was in 1928 and has been recorded many times over the years.
It’s an amazing song I must say .👍🏽👍🏽
Great reaction! Please do more Home Free!
Thanks, we definitely will be checking more form then . 👍🏽👍🏽
Modern a Cappella is a lot different than most expect. Be prepared, it's a very deep rabbit hole you have come to. Great reaction and thank you for letting the song/video play before commenting!
This song was just amazing, and the band is something else, great singers, can’t wait to explore and enjoy more songs from them.👍🏽
They really are a talented group, you have no idea yet lol Another great song and video of theirs is End of the Road, this one will blow your mind! Great reaction, you are in for a real surprise with these guys.
This was indeed mind blowing, we never expected it… in all , amazing band, thanks for the suggestions we’ll check it out as soon as we can.👍🏽👍🏽
Welcome to them Home Fries (fans of Home Free)
May I suggest you watched their complete Sing Off series. 5 great performance
We really love this song and we’re definitely opened to listening and reacting to more songs from this amazing band. Thanks for the suggestions.🙏👍🏽
I spent the entire evening last night watching Home Free videos (and a few "first reactions", as well)...will spend a good part of my day today doing the same. So far, "A Man Of Constant Sorrow" is my favorite, but I'm sure that could change. I'm a fan for life now!
I didn't even know about "first reaction" videos until last night and I wish for all the world, I had videoed my own first reaction...I was literally blown away!
Wow interesting story and experience, almost the same as ours, it was recommended and we reacted to it , watching them for the very first time and we were blown away 🤯… not seen any other yet but will be checking out some that have been recommended… ( first reaction videos are really interesting)😄 thanks for watching and sharing your experience with us.🙏💯👍🏽
This song was first written down in 1913 and is much older than that... Home Free does both covers and originals.
Its really an Amazing song.. love every bit of it.💯👍🏽👌
Welcome to home free!! They have many many more incredible songs to hear!! Listen to “How Great Thou Art””; “Bless the Broken Road”; “Helplessly Hoping”; “End of the Road”; & “When a Man Loves a Woman”!! Love your surprised Reaction!!
Thanks for the suggestions… we will definitely be checking them out one after the other… 🙏👍🏽
These guys are amazing. You have four fantastic vocalists and the best beatboxer in the world. They sing both covers and original music and although a country acapella group perform music from many different genres. Ivory, I know you loved the beatboxing, but if you want to hear their amazing harmonies listen to their version of Helplessly Holing where all five of them sing. To give you a taste of their versatility I recommend When a Man Loves a Woman, End of the Road, Crazy, How Great Thou Art and, just for fun, Never Gonna Give You Up, the Butts Remix and Workin for a Livin. Enjoy and welcome to the rabbit hole.
That’s sound interesting, listening to them all sing.🤔 can’t wait to check it out, thanks for the suggestion, and we are glad to be here to explore and enjoy this amazing band.✌️👍🏽👌
Home Free is the best!! ❤❤
They are really great at what they do.👍🏽👍🏽👌💯
Home Free is in a league of their own and their style of acapella is so different than other vocal groups because of their multifaceted talent & the wide variety of genres they cover!!! Just check out their cover of Boyz II Men's song "End Of The Road."
This band we find them amazing, easy to get hooked on… thanks for the suggestions we can’t wait to check them out more. 👍🏽💯
That beginning sound was of a Jews Harp, which was done by Chance, who was the last person you see on the video as it ended. Even the beat boxer can just plain sing also. They can all make sounds of instruments. Awesome group.
From this one song we heard, we just know this band is amazing. So ready to enjoy and dive into this rabbit hole. 👍🏽👍🏽
Great reaction. Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Home Free....
Thanks for much, it’s so nice to be here really, plan on exploring moreeeeee from the band👌👍🏽
You might get buried in requests for more Home Free songs. They have a large and loyal fan base and a deep selection of songs. Some are covers, some are original, all are good. A more contemporary covers they did were "End of the Road" and "When a man loves a woman". A more theatrical group of a capella singers is Voiceplay. Check out their mashup of "Moana" featuring Rachel Potter. A more conservative a cappella group is Pentatonix. They do an excellent job on "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Hallelujah". They are all exceptional. I'm a new sub
Wow… it’s crazy, we’ve got lots imof suggestions here… we’ll be checking out the other bands too, and thanks for suggesting and subscribing much appreciated.🙏💯👍🏽
This was a cover, the song came from the 1900's and has been sung by many but this is the best. HF sings many kinds of music but often with a country twist. Known for their harmonies and wide voice ranges. Recommended songs , Ring of Fire, Helplessly Hoping, Misty Mountain, Buttes Medley, Sea Shanties, etc.
This song is amazing, haven’t heard from others who sang it, but this band wowed us completely.. thanks for suggesting these songs, we’ll be checking them out as soon as we can.
My husband's objection to a cappella music is that it typically sounds "empty" to him. Home Free does an amazing job of sounding like a band, vs a group of guys singing together.
I think you would also enjoy Voiceplay for the same reason. They sound musically rich and full. I would suggest their cover of Carry On My Wayward Son.
A Capella really makes one appreciate music in its raw nature, where you can hear everything in it… and I must say, Home Free has got that raw talent… amazing band and truly rich. Thanks for the suggestion we’ll be checking them out too.✌️👍🏽
The best acapella group ever! Welcome! 😁
Thank you., nice to have found them.👍🏽👍🏽
Adam Rupp is the Beat Boxer of the group, andhe has a video here on RUclips showing his Drum Solo talents. Great reactions by both of you.
Thanks for the compliment, we’ll be checking out Adam Rupp’s solo at some point to enjoy his beatboxing more. 👍🏽👍🏽
This song is quite old…was written in 1927. It was also done in the George Clooney movie…”oh, Brother Where Art Thou” ? It was sung in the movie by The Soggy Bottom Boys.
Their harmonies are beyond tight. The first instrument sound was not done by the beat boxer, but by the baritone singer of the group, it’s called a Jaw Harp.
The Home Free rabbit hole is a fun trip…..jump in & enjoy the ride, it’s Great down here 🙃🥰
These guy are raw talent, their song is musically rich and enjoy every bit of this song, we can’t wait to check out more from them, we plan on enjoying this ride into the rabbit hole… 🥰👍🏽💯
@@EbonyIvoryReact …. Welcome to some great fun enjoying them as we do ‼️🙃💥🙃
They are the best and fun
And an amazing band too.👍🏽
Home Free's Beatboxer Adam Rupp does a live Drum Solo!!! You'll also Love "Pentatonix" and "Voiceplay"!!! These 3 acapella groups are Top of The Line!!! Y'all Won't be disappointed!!!
Yea, lots of people have suggested to listen to Voiceplay too, we just started our journey into Pentatonix’s world too, with our first reaction posted few days ago… Voiceplay will be coming soon and more from Homefree and Adam Rupp. Thanks for the suggestions.👍🏽🙏💯
Welcome to Home Free. We are called "Home Fries", the fans of Home Free. Home Free has an extensive RUclips catalog that showcase them doing different genre's and styles. Enjoy the ride.
Soo ready to enjoy this ride… thanks for your comment.👍🏽🙏
Oh it's real my friend!!! This song is from the movie "O Brother Where Art Thou? Starring George Clooney and its on the movie's soundtrack performed by The Soggy Bottom Boys...Home Free covered it, put their own flair & twist to it, in order to give it their own unique style!!!
I love that they are versatile and unique… will check out the movie as well as other of their songs…
I really love Home Free, and first saw them on the show The Sing Off... and I really recommend watching the episode where they perform Ring of Fire. The official version that they did featuring Avi Kaplan is great, but there is something about watching the first performance of it is even better. They are really such a fun group to watch and I always love to recommend their Butts Medley if you want to laugh while you listen. I add my support to the comments that you shouldn't watch Mayday (It is fantastic too) until you have seen more of their work to see how they 'normally' perform, and then Mayday shows you the range that they all have.
Wow.. we look forward to seeing May Day, we really are waiting to be wowed…. Plus we will likely check out their first performance of Ring of fire, so much to check out with this amazing band… thanks for sharing this with us..✌️👍🏽
And down the Home Free rabbit hole you go! Enjoy!
Completely ready to dive into this rabbit hole…💯👍🏽👍🏽
It’s real. Listen to some of their other songs, they cover everything. These guys are are the shi- wa - tay!
Yea, we have gotten a few suggestions we’ll checking out as soon as we can.👍🏽
Adam Rupp is called the human Drum kit. He has won the beatbox championship two years in a row.
He is just amazing.👌👍🏽
THe song is over a hundred years old, it was written 1913 and is a Bluegrass song. The Soggy Bottom Boys did a version of it for the movie, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, starring George Clooney. These guys are a great band, and have tons of videos on you tube, some covers, some hyms, some original and some just fun. Check out Butts Remix. Oh Yeah welcome to club new Home Fries.
Interesting to know, we really love this version, even though we have not heard the others… we’ll definitely be checking out more songs from this amazing band…🙏👍🏽
I hope you plan to listen to more performances by this amazing group of singers!
Most definitely.. we look forward to listening, watching and reacting to their songs… amazing band 👌💯
They also tour the UK and the rest of Europe. Catch a live performance. You will see a show like no other. I believe they also have parts of their tours on video.
Would be such an amazing experience to see them live perform.. hopefully someday .👍🏽👍🏽
I love your reaction, and I love Home Free ! To hear some of their most amazing work, I recommend: "When a Man Loves a Woman", "Helplessly Hoping", "End of the Road" and "American Pie". Other favorites include 'Ring of Fire" and "Folsom Prison Blues".
Thanks so much, we’ll be choir these suggestions… can’t wait to listen and watch this amazing band.💯👍🏽
Ivory, western movie instrument is called a “juice harp”
Recovered this song. It's from brother Where art thou the movie. If you want to hear some more modern music, or classic rock acapella, you absolutely have to listen to Pentatonix. There's one free Grammys now.
Wow, that’s gonna be awesome… we heard about them, and have reacted to one of their songs only needs to be edited and posted… it was wowww👍🏽
Home Free covers songs but they have their own remix and songs. PLEASE react to more of their music you will not be disappointed I promise!
Thanks Carolyn … we really like this song, we’ve got lots of suggestions, we’ll definitely be reacting to more of their songs..👌💯👍🏽
Totally real, real gold :-)
Loved your reaction and your playlists
Thanks for the kind words and subscribing, be sure more reactions will be coming soon .🙏🙏👍🏽
If you want to see another incredible talent search for Geoff Castellucci Far over the misty mountain cold!! This song will give you chills and hit you right in the heart. His voice is so deep and he also sings all parts. At first I thought this was four different guys singing but then realized it’s the same guy just in different costumes. He is absolutely incredible and when I first heard the song I can actually say it affected me in a way that not many songs can do. I’m not a big fan of these types of singing either but home free is incredible and now I found Geoff Castellucci who sings with voice play but just this one song from him solo is incredible!!!
Alright, that’s gonna be awesome… can’t wait to check that out, thanks for the the suggestion and taking your time to share this with us.
The song is taking from: O¨Brother were art Thou. The movie have a lot of great songs. The scene U see - is inspired by the movie and clothes.
Oh really, need to watch the movie as well, sounds interesting… 💯👍🏽
This song was originally from 1913 was brought back to the for front by the movie Oh Brother where art thou.
Amazing… the song is amazing.👌💯
This is a cover by Home Free of a song written in 1913 in an “Old Timey” style. You should check out more of Home Free. You will be glad you did
We are glad to be here, ready to explore more of their songs… thanks 🙏👍🏽
If you haven't seen it yet check out Home Free Adam Rupp's drum solo. And another song that has his harmonica is Working for a Living, their cover of the 1982 Huey Lewis and the News hit using the movie Anchorman as a template. Another good copy from a movie is This is How We Roll, aping The Big Lebowski.
