Check out their boys to men cover End of the road, or When a man loves a woman. Home free has a broad and deep library. Also they are some of the nicest guys you will ever come across.
I love the late, great Dr. Ralph Stanley ( R.I.P. ) and his Clinch Mountain Boys.....but this may be just as exciting as the original.......ALL the female reactors melt hearing Tim's basso profundo voice !
Home Frees versatility is legendary. They have done grand art pieces, technically laser precision harmony pieces, silly, lighthearted stuff, romantically sweet songs, important message songs, heart strings tugging things. You name a genre, they can do it. Home Free is like opening a gift box, the deeper you dig into the box, the more wonderful surprises you find. Aside from their insane talent, they are humble, kind, decent guys who love and respect their fans (Home Fries) and that's only one of the reasons the Home Fries are so fiercely loyal to them.
And now their two tenors Austin Brown and Rob Lundquist have done a side project in OPERA! And killed it. We already knew Austin can sing those high notes, but Rob has been holding back on us and has a rich, powerful opera-trained voice. This terrific new video is on Austin Brown’s RUclips channel and has a title like “Two country singers try singing opera.” By the way, Tim Foust is singing BASS -actually basso profundo - not baritone here, though he has a 5 octave range. You don’t hear their baritone Adam Chance much in this song (except the digeridoo sound), but you can hear him up front in some songs, like their delightful Sea Shanty Medley.
Home Free is more diverse than you might think. You're next reaction to Home Free might be their cover of Boyz2Men "End of the Road". Yes they lean "country" but they truly sing everything, and you'll really love them when you get to know how goofy they can be too (Their Butts Remix/Medly is off the chain) Some other suggestions : Brothers in Arms, their masterpiece a cover of a Dire Straits classic, an original song, Dive Bar Saints, written for them by a Grammy nominated friend, Arliss Albritton, also their cover of Country Roads, the John Denver classic like you've never heard it before....and more than 100+ more music videos....there have also been collabs with more famous folks like Kenny Rogers
If she loves that bass, Tim's lead in "Brother's In Arms" will be right in her wheelhouse, although it's a very serious song. Subscribed, I love watching reactors take this ride. Buckle Up! Your going to need it!
Fantastic reaction! Home Free is the best a capella group on the planet. Any of the vocalists can sing lead depending upon the song and they cover any and all genres. Home Free has a vast catalog and you are just starting to glimpse into a vast rabbit hole. I get a chance to see them live in a couple of months and I am really looking forward to it!
The 1st singer is Austin Brown, the high tenor, this was actually one of his lowest songs. The 2nd singer is Rob Lundquist, he is the "lead" tenor, 3rd singer is Tim Foust, a basso profundo (lowest bass) who just happens to have a 5 octave range, plus a falsetto. He actually dropped an octave on the chorus after his bit. The 4th singer is Adam Chance (goes by Chance since there is another Adam in the group), he sings baritone and takes over bass duties when Tim sings lead. He did the mouth harp aka juice harp. And the beatboxer is Adam Rupp, who co-founded the group with his brother who left. Widely known as a "freak of nature". Welcome to the rabbit hole.
@@N9TheNoob Misinformation? Shouting (all caps)? Pretty sure our 'issue' here is being fans of a singer, not nuclear defense. I'd advise calm. Plus, it's an easy mistake to make, since a _basso profundo_ needs to be able to hit at least a G1 in normal chest voice, and Tim can go lower in chest, to an A1, and even lower when using techniques such as subharmonics, vocal fry, etc. So while he isn't a true _basso profundo_ due to his timbre not being that darkly cavernous sound typical of those singers, he's a pretty low bass, with an impressively wide range. I just think I'll reserve my use of shouting and words like 'misinformation' to weightier matters than what vocal classification a gifted singer fits into. But that's me....
Oh no! Your about to fall down a deep, multifaceted rabbit hole. One of my favorites groups. They sing almost every genre. They bring out almost every emotion through thier songs. Hope you do more, thanks for your time and sharing your knowledge with us.
They are the best acapella group out there. So versatile. Try their "How Great Thou Art" to refresh your Gospel acapella memories. "End of the Road" for some R&B, or "When a Man Loves a Woman" for some romance. Tim's Bass shines in "Hillbilly Bone" and "Folsom Prison Blues". You can't go wrong with any of their songs..
You were just introduced to the best A cappella group out there in my opinion they won season 4 of the show the Sing Off love these guys hope you do more they cover all genre’s of music but are known for there country
THERE IT WAS!!.....The "Tim Face". 😊 I am always tickled with the look of someone when they first hear Tim. The instrument was a Jaw Harp, commonly used in the deep south. The lead on this...Austin Brown....also does a good harmonica. Most of the group does at least since beat boxing, but Adam Rupp is a 2-time World Champion, so he doesn't need much help.
Lol the tim face, gets me. I'm pretty good at impersonating, like Christopher Walken is my best, but can with music and whatnot, Tim is definitely the easiest for me outta the group, lol definitely not a beat boxer
The best acapella group in the world! 5 tenors, 2 baritones, 2 bass, Tim Foust is the master along with a 5 octave range, the fill in bass Adam Chance, 2 x world champion beat boxer, Adam Rupp. They all beat box to some extent.
If you like religious acapella, then you need to listen to Home Free',s. How Great Thou Art, O Holy Night, or the spiritual Children Go Where I Send Thee with Kenny Rogers. They also did a new version of American Pie with Don McLean. Listening to them is usually an experience with goosebumps.
I also recommend What Child is This by Chris Rupp feat. Home Free. Chris is a founding member of Home Free and Adam Chance stepped in when Chris left in 2016. This song is one of three videos where all six (former/current) members show up, but the only one where they're all performing.
OMG, I am so jealous you are just starting your Home Free journey, you are going to love it!!! 😍😍😍😍😍Who doesn't love a country boy, especially when they are all so good looking!!!
I am not a country music fan but I love Home Free! They can sing anything and do it really well, if not perfectly. They are good guys and very down to earth and genuinely love interacting with their fans (known as home fries). They are the best, imo.
Hi Rosalie, Let me just welcome you into the Home Free Family and Fan Base, we are known as "Home Fries." You my friend are in for a special treat because Home Free is "The Bomb!!!" 💣 I too am a fan of "A Capella" just like you...But with no disrespect to all of the other wonderful "A Capella" groups out there, IMHO Home Free is (both collectively & individually) the most versatile Vocal Band on the planet!!! Because they perform so many genres and as you will soon discover, their musical catalog is so deep you're going to find it hard to get out of their "rabbit-hole," not that you'll ever want to get out of it...Just sayin'...So hold on to your hat, fasten your seatbelt and enjoy the ride because us "Home Fries" are here for it!!! Mic Drop!!! 🎤
so these guys are really good, they seem to have the vibe of what we used to call a supergroup .. not that they were famous before but because they work hard to bring everything they got to any given song .. great stuff
This group is so amazing and so diverse in their abilities and flat out entertaining. They keep anyone and everyone interested in how they will treat the next release and how they are going to outperform any expectation one could imagine. They simply surprize us each time in the outcome. Go Home Free..........!!!!!! They sing many different genres and are one of the most diverse groups singing these various genres exceptionally well. Humongous rabbit hole as they have well over 100 + covers and many originals on you tube. Their live concerts are awesome.
Welcome to Home Free, the most versatile a cappella group ever! They cover everything you can imagine. Austin Brown, high tenor, is the guy in the middle, trained in musical theater. The guy with the great beard, Rob Lundquist, the smoothest tenor I’ve ever heard (and the best whistler). Beat boxer Adam Rupp. They say he swallowed a drum kit as a child, lol. Personally I think it was a whole orchestra, and he also has a great singing voice. Baritone/bass Adam Chance. (Goes by Chance to avoid confusion). Wait until you hear him lead a song! He will melt you. Tim Foust, the bass man (long hair in this video), is far and away the best bass I’ve ever heard. And he has a 5 octave range. His low notes have literally blown speakers at live concerts. This song is impressive, but I promise you that you haven’t even scratched the surface. The fans call themselves “Home Fries” from a comment made by Ben Folz when Home Free won the Sing-off. I encourage you to add Home Free to your music mix. We “Fries” will boost your subscriptions for sure. Loved your reaction. I’ll be watching for you on your channel.
Yup ...here for Home Free. This was my first song way back at the beginning of the pandemic & the guys certainly kept us involved and entertained over that time. Great reaction 🙂💕
Home Free's abilities definitely span genres. This song is actually a very old folk tune many will recognized from George Clooney's "O Brother Where Art Thou". Another classic folk tune covered in extraordinary fashion by Home Free is John Denver's "Take Me Home Country Roads". Creations which draw on the group's country roots include their cover of Blake Shelton's "Hillbilly Bone", which is a lot of fun, and "Great Day To Be Alive". For something deep "In The Blood", something humorous their "Butts Remix", something up tempo "Can't Stop The Feeling", 70's classics "Love Train", something spiritual "How Great Thou Art"...plus much more.
Loved watching your facial/body reactions as you listened to one of my favorite groups. They also have songs they sing with Kenny Rogers, Don McLean and Lee Greenwood. Everybody Walking This Land and My Church are just two of my other favs! Hope you enjoy more of Home Free! My choices of music are the same as yours, love it!🎶🎶
I agree with Kevin Clements who commented below about HOME FREE's versatility in songs. Yes, they are fundamentally a Country acapella group but they slay pop, blues, gospel, traditional Christmas songs and even have their own originals. JUMP ON THE HOME FREE TRAIN!
Home Free performs everything from country, old time classic rock, pop and sooo much beyond what you can imagine. They have a original pieces as well. This group sounds even better in person.
Another good group is Voiceplay. They are known for doing more "acting" and "costumes" to fit the songs they sing. Very entertaining. They are my favourite acapella group. Some good songs to begin with is "We don't talk about Bruno", "The Oogie Boogie Song" and "The little Mermaid Medley".
Another just awesome reaction I love watching you get into these songs and your breakdowns of the music you hear. you get so connected to what you hear and that is one of my favorite things about your reactions. hope you have nothing less than an awesome day.
I did these a little backwards,going from your last reaction to the first. I love your attitude and that no one will like everything. We are all different even though we are alike. There are some Home Free songs where I prefer the original, but I can appreciate the music and talent. I love Home Free even though I found them less than a year ago. They are amazingly humble,down to earth men. I've been to two concerts and a benefit put on by Tim and Austin. My granddaughter and I were able to meet all of them at the first concert,just sweethearts. At the benefit, we were able to converse more with Austin and his girlfriend,than Tim. But what gracious men who stayed an hour longer than it was scheduled to continue to chit chat. I love how engages with their fans. We talked about things like you would with a friend. At our last concert,I was unable to afford the meet & greet tickets,but we were close for the q and a. As Austin came out,he saw us,waved and said hi Deb. I didn't expect anything like that. My granddaughter is thrilled because her Christmas present is their Christmas concert in Mankato,Minnesota where the group began. Thank you for your honest reviews. That's why I subscribed.
Yep welcome to the world of Homefree seen them twice live they are Amazing, they are a country group but do some old school hip hop r&b and doo woop too. Hope you enjoy the rabbit hole of Homefree I know you will!! I'm from South western Kentucky.
Awesome reaction! PTX and VP are very talented in their own right but Home Free hits me different. Enjoy Home Free's type of music more. Home Free's songs Can't Stop the Feeling and Butts Remix/Medly is two that are different genre. I've yet to find a song I didn't like from them.
You have just been introduced to the best a cappella group out there (sorry not a fan of PTX). These guys are all so talented. They lean towards country but they can do any genre. They all can take the lead depending on whos voice is best for the song. They are known for their tight harmonies. Tim Foust is one of the best bass (not baritone) singers out there & their beatboxer vocal percussionist Adam Rupp can simulate any sound. This song is very old & is done in the bluegrass country style. It was used in the movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" starring George Clooney.
Home Free does almost any "melodic" genre. Country, blues, R&B, gospel, pop, songs from musicals (you need to check out "Try Everything," their cover from Zootopia...). You name it, if it's melodic, they're likely to have a sample. They do it well--they never seem to let the spirit and soul of the song down. This piece is built on what's sometimes called "old-timey" country, with the character shaped before recording was common. The original collected version goes back to a songbook from 1913 and can be assumed to have even older roots. The thing is, Home Free are talented, skilled, conscientious, and FUN. They somehow combine professionalism, mischief, and real musical soul. Over and over again.
"When a Man Loves a Woman," "End of the Road," "Working for a Living," "Sea Shanty Medley," "How Great Thou Art," "Brothers in Arms," "Listen to the Music." "7 Bridges Road," "Zootopia- Try Everything," They do have some verity, but they're based in country." "Country Road," "Hillbilly Bone," "Forever and Ever Amen," "Colder Weather." Good luck in choosing!😀 More Home Free, please. Don't let me down.
Home Free so fun and no only country. More, please. Also I enjoyed your Dimash and Diana reactions. Two more international singers you must see, Sohyang "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and Hua Chenyu "Nunchucks". Sohyang is Korean, Hua Chenyu is Chinese. Add to your world.
"Nunchucks" + Hua Chenyu's healing trilogy, especially "Conversations with Martian Children" MV + live. Best thing I've ever seen on healing. Sohyang also for healing, but different. Both mix cultures, too. She'll love them!
Awesome reaction! They call themselves country a cappella, but they can literally do almost any genre! Want to see a completely different vibe, check out their cover of End of the Road! That's a huge awesome rabbit hole to go down! You'll likely become a "Home-Fry " like the rest of us fans! 😆
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole 🕳. My I suggest When a Man Loves a Woman, Butts Remix/Medley, maybe some Doobie Brothers cover Listen to the Music. They have 140+ songs some originals, Like, Dreamer is a great original. Have fun
The song was actually written by Dick Burnett in 1913... than covered by The Stanley Brothers in 1960 which is the version everyone covers... The Soggy Bottom Boys did it for the Coen Bros flick O Brother, Where Art Thou?....
I was blown away the first time I heard Home Free, too. I had heard of beatboxing, but I never heard anyone do it until Home Free. Adam Rupp's beatboxing is highlighted a bit more in their cover of Percy Sledge's "When a Man Loves a Woman." Also, this song (above) is from the soundtrack of "O Brother, Where Art Thou?"
@@carolyntaylor7 HA! I just looked at the clock and noticed it's 7:15 PM. In military time, aka a 24-hour clock, that's 1915! So I'm living through the early 1900s right now! 😆I noticed that the original title was "Farewell Song" in 1913, so thank you for that bit of musical history!
Home Free is the best as they won the sing off against all others. Home free started 22 years ago and have just gotten better and better. I suggest the next one you do of Home Free is Ring of Fire and Avi Kaplan is in that one also.
Tim is the best bass around! And Adam, the beatboxer has won several world competitions....the best in the world! Keep going down Homefrees rabbit hole you will see they do many different genres
If you were an AVB fan these guys are right up your alley. You'll find out that they are incredibly versatile across music genre's, and their versatility will blow you away.
Oh they do all kinds of genres. Pop, classic pop, country, bluesy...you name it, they can do it. They lean country but love and perform all kinds of music. The bass (not baritone, he's a true bass) has solo work of 50's Doo-Wop. The main singer in this video has a solo video of him singing "Bring Him Home" from Les Mis. "Love Train" "Unchained Melody" "Can't Stop The Feelin" "Listen To The Music" "When A Man Loves A Woman"....the list goes on and on of non country songs they have done.
I think you would enjoy their cover of Brother originally by Need to Breathe. Their voices are fantastic. The group has been together over 20 years. Some members have come and gone but the beat boxer is one of the founding members.
They sing all kinds of music! Covers and they have some of their on songs! Listen to Mayday & you will hear Tim's (the bass) range. You will be amazed! They are very patriotic also!
that's good to know :) I'm excited to check out more. Had no idea they do other stuff too, but I like not knowing much at first. It allows me to have a fresh perspective and for others to then comment with what they know. I'm excited to check out more. :) Stay tuned
I believe that you may have stumbled upon the best a capella group out there in my opinion however I really enjoy PTX and Voice Play and voctave there all amazing groups for sure but Home Free are the masters of harmonies and just a side note Home Free and Voice Play are close friends and have calibrated together on different projects Geoff also arranged the video for Home Free and the oakridge boys singing their classic Elvira.
This song is a bluegrass song. I'm in my mid 60's and I can recall hearing my grandmother play this record when I was 4 years old, and she only listened to bluegrass music. I think this is from either Bill Monroe or The Stanley Brothers. You will be pleasantly surprised with everything Home Free has done! Dive deep into Home Free...I promise, you won't regret it!!!
Home Free does occasionally wander off the Country Reservation, with spectacular results. Numbers like Auld Lang Syne, Helplessly Hoping, and When a Man Loves a Woman will produce the audio equivalent of what one feels in the middle of a Herbal Essences commercial.
Other wonderful a capella groups Pentatonix, Voiceplay and Voctave, plus the bass singer of Voiceplay Goeff Castellucci has his own channel where he posts great covers.
Home Free goes far beyond what we call “country”. Check out their other songs and you will become more confused as to what to call them. Go in order from their “Butts med. to How Great Thou Art, to Brothers in Arms, then back up the emotions to My Church, to One Man Band. If you are in a Christmas mood, listen to Grandma Got Run over by a Rain deer, to Mary Did You Know. They may be called Country , but there’s nothing that can’t do.
Love the reaction, your enthusiasm is contagious LOL ! Home Free does just about any Genre of music - although they lean country. You can find religious, Jazz, pop, boy band, country and original music, etc. that they have covered/created. And it is ALL good and even GREAT ! For some of their best, try their covers of 'Brothers in Arms', 'When a Man Loves a Woman', 'In the Blood', 'How Great Thou Art' and many more !
Rosalie, this is the tip of the iceberg. Multiple genres, originals and covers. Well over 100 videos. Hard to pick a next one for you to listen to because they are all so good.
As a few others have mentioned. Home Free is more country _themed_ than a full on country group. They of course have country music in their repertoire. I recommend their covers of 'Think A Little Less', 'Die A Happy Man' and their original song, 'Why Not.'
I love seeing first reactions to Home Free. I have seen your later reactions and am glad that you are seeing some of their variety. They are all so talented. Happy listening!
I'm a huge Crosby, Stills & Nash fan and HF's version of "Helplessly Hoping" is just incredible, brought tears of joy to my face. HF's version (with Avi Kaplan from PTX) of Johnny Cash's "Ring Of Fire" is also 🔥
Please do more home free!!! Like ring of fire and always do there live versions as well a lot of times they’ll change it for the live version to include more bass notes!!
Welcome to the basket! Home Free fans are called Home Fries, and once you jump in the basket, you will find so many things to react to!!! Highly suggest you listen to many songs and learn who they are BEFORE you react to Mayday....
They have a huge and diverse catalog. They have also have been amazing for their fans, the Home Fries, by keeping us sane during quarantine by releasing a new song/video every 2 weeks. Their live concerts are amazing too with their bass Tim Foust, shaking you in your chair and entertaining with their comedy. Truly their isnt a bad song in their catalog. Pick your favorites and enjoy the ride.
Home Free is the real deal. They’re amazingly talented. They sing all genres of music. For blues try Blue Ain’t Your Color or Folsom Prison Blues. For Christian music try How Great Thou Art, Angels We Have Heard on High. For hip hop type music try End of the Road. For pop try Meant to Be, Mayday. For Country try Country Roads, What We Ain’t Got, Die a Happy Man. Some of my favorites are Helplessly Hoping, Brothers in Arms, I Can’t Outrun You (lots of bass in those last two). They won season 4 of the NBC show the Sing Off. PTX won season 3. Good reaction!😃
I have a genuine question. Why no Hillbilly Bone on the list? Do people not know about it, forget about it, or don't like it? I can't imagine it's the last reason because its not only one of their best songs, it's also one of their most fun, and it makes for an excellent reaction. For whatever reason we get dozens of Sea Shanty reactions which is pretty bad by Home Free standards but only a few reactions to some of their greats.
@@wk1579 Yes, Hillbilly Bone, Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget, Sold, Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer, and Butts Remix for comedy. I'd add Do You Hear What I Hear for Christian music. Heck, throw a dart at the list. They're all good.
@@wk1579 I just forgot about it. And I love the Sea Shanty Medley. They did it in a TikTok style to emulate the other shanties on TikTok. And it was done during Covid so they couldn’t even get together. I wish more people would react to Helplessly Hoping, Country Roads and Brothers in Arms which are my personal favorites. Brother is becoming another favorite for the song and their craziness.
Please check out more of their songs they are the best accopella group on the planet. End of the road cover of boys ii men, When a man loves a woman, ring of fire etc.
You really need to check out the Home Free Butts remix. Even though the video is completely ridiculous, their music is on point as always. And it covers different types of music that shows their range a little better.
Welcome to Home Free! They are the best! Pick a genre, they do it all!
Check out their boys to men cover End of the road, or When a man loves a woman. Home free has a broad and deep library. Also they are some of the nicest guys you will ever come across.
Thank you... you are great
I love the late, great Dr. Ralph Stanley ( R.I.P. ) and his Clinch Mountain Boys.....but this may be just as exciting as the original.......ALL the female reactors melt hearing Tim's basso profundo voice !

I second that!
Dont forget to recommend "Listen To The Music" and "When A Man Loves A Woman" . . . oh, and "Brother"!
3RD!
If she loves that bass, Tim's lead in "Brother's In Arms" will be right in her wheelhouse, although it's a very serious song.
Subscribed, I love watching reactors take this ride. Buckle Up! Your going to need it!
Yup. Fasten your seatbelt and put your seat back and tray tables in the upright and locked position. Gonna be a wild ride.

@@bradcwikla3099 Nope, THE best... :)

TIM IS NOT A BASSO PROFUNDO STOP SPREADING MISINFORMATION
@@N9TheNoob Misinformation? Shouting (all caps)? Pretty sure our 'issue' here is being fans of a singer, not nuclear defense. I'd advise calm.
Plus, it's an easy mistake to make, since a _basso profundo_ needs to be able to hit at least a G1 in normal chest voice, and Tim can go lower in chest, to an A1, and even lower when using techniques such as subharmonics, vocal fry, etc.
So while he isn't a true _basso profundo_ due to his timbre not being that darkly cavernous sound typical of those singers, he's a pretty low bass, with an impressively wide range.

@@willeymiller4760 I said my opinion
@@willeymiller4760 all comes down to personal preference. I personally like Home Free better because I like their arrangement style.
@@marlenekloth4734 oh I know I was just joking with you everyone has thier own likes and dislikes lol

Hi Rosalie, Let me just welcome you into the Home Free Family and Fan Base, we are known as "Home Fries." You my friend are in for a special treat because Home Free is "The Bomb!!!" 💣 I too am a fan of "A Capella" just like you...But with no disrespect to all of the other wonderful "A Capella" groups out there, IMHO Home Free is (both collectively & individually) the most versatile Vocal Band on the planet!!! Because they perform so many genres and as you will soon discover, their musical catalog is so deep you're going to find it hard to get out of their "rabbit-hole," not that you'll ever want to get out of it...Just sayin'...So hold on to your hat, fasten your seatbelt and enjoy the ride because us "Home Fries" are here for it!!! Mic Drop!!! 🎤
so these guys are really good, they seem to have the vibe of what we used to call a supergroup .. not that they were famous before but because they work hard to bring everything they got to any given song .. great stuff
This group is so amazing and so diverse in their abilities and flat out entertaining. They keep anyone and everyone interested in how they will treat the next release and how they are going to outperform any expectation one could imagine. They simply surprize us each time in the outcome. Go Home Free..........!!!!!! They sing many different genres and are one of the most diverse groups singing these various genres exceptionally well. Humongous rabbit hole as they have well over 100 + covers and many originals on you tube. Their live concerts are awesome.
Welcome to Home Free, the most versatile a cappella group ever! They cover everything you can imagine. Austin Brown, high tenor, is the guy in the middle, trained in musical theater. The guy with the great beard, Rob Lundquist, the smoothest tenor I’ve ever heard (and the best whistler). Beat boxer Adam Rupp. They say he swallowed a drum kit as a child, lol. Personally I think it was a whole orchestra, and he also has a great singing voice. Baritone/bass Adam Chance. (Goes by Chance to avoid confusion). Wait until you hear him lead a song! He will melt you. Tim Foust, the bass man (long hair in this video), is far and away the best bass I’ve ever heard. And he has a 5 octave range. His low notes have literally blown speakers at live concerts. This song is impressive, but I promise you that you haven’t even scratched the surface. The fans call themselves “Home Fries” from a comment made by Ben Folz when Home Free won the Sing-off. I encourage you to add Home Free to your music mix. We “Fries” will boost your subscriptions for sure. Loved your reaction. I’ll be watching for you on your channel.
Yup ...here for Home Free. This was my first song way back at the beginning of the pandemic & the guys certainly kept us involved and entertained over that time. Great reaction 🙂💕
Home Free's abilities definitely span genres. This song is actually a very old folk tune many will recognized from George Clooney's "O Brother Where Art Thou". Another classic folk tune covered in extraordinary fashion by Home Free is John Denver's "Take Me Home Country Roads". Creations which draw on the group's country roots include their cover of Blake Shelton's "Hillbilly Bone", which is a lot of fun, and "Great Day To Be Alive". For something deep "In The Blood", something humorous their "Butts Remix", something up tempo "Can't Stop The Feeling", 70's classics "Love Train", something spiritual "How Great Thou Art"...plus much more.
One of my favorites. Perfectly done. I’ve heard a lot of a capella bands, but Home Free is the best.
They are my favorite Accapela group. Liked and subscribed
Loved watching your facial/body reactions as you listened to one of my favorite groups. They also have songs they sing with Kenny Rogers, Don McLean and Lee Greenwood. Everybody Walking This Land and My Church are just two of my other favs! Hope you enjoy more of Home Free! My choices of music are the same as yours, love it!🎶🎶
I agree with Kevin Clements who commented below about HOME FREE's versatility in songs. Yes, they are fundamentally a Country acapella group but they slay pop, blues, gospel, traditional Christmas songs and even have their own originals. JUMP ON THE HOME FREE TRAIN!
Home Free performs everything from country, old time classic rock, pop and sooo much beyond what you can imagine. They have a original pieces as well. This group sounds even better in person.
I love these guys! They dont have a bad song, ever.... they are simply amazing!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️😎😎😎😎😎
Another good group is Voiceplay. They are known for doing more "acting" and "costumes" to fit the songs they sing. Very entertaining. They are my favourite acapella group.
Some good songs to begin with is "We don't talk about Bruno", "The Oogie Boogie Song" and "The little Mermaid Medley".
Home Free is amazing and never disappoints. Enjoy the rabbit hole lol
Another just awesome reaction I love watching you get into these songs and your breakdowns of the music you hear. you get so connected to what you hear and that is one of my favorite things about your reactions. hope you have nothing less than an awesome day.
I did these a little backwards,going from your last reaction to the first. I love your attitude and that no one will like everything. We are all different even though we are alike. There are some Home Free songs where I prefer the original, but I can appreciate the music and talent. I love Home Free even though I found them less than a year ago. They are amazingly humble,down to earth men. I've been to two concerts and a benefit put on by Tim and Austin. My granddaughter and I were able to meet all of them at the first concert,just sweethearts. At the benefit, we were able to converse more with Austin and his girlfriend,than Tim. But what gracious men who stayed an hour longer than it was scheduled to continue to chit chat. I love how engages with their fans. We talked about things like you would with a friend. At our last concert,I was unable to afford the meet & greet tickets,but we were close for the q and a. As Austin came out,he saw us,waved and said hi Deb. I didn't expect anything like that. My granddaughter is thrilled because her Christmas present is their Christmas concert in Mankato,Minnesota where the group began.
Thank you for your honest reviews. That's why I subscribed.
All about that bass, , , feel like watching o' brother now
Yep welcome to the world of Homefree seen them twice live they are Amazing, they are a country group but do some old school hip hop r&b and doo woop too. Hope you enjoy the rabbit hole of Homefree I know you will!! I'm from South western Kentucky.
Awesome reaction! PTX and VP are very talented in their own right but Home Free hits me different. Enjoy Home Free's type of music more. Home Free's songs Can't Stop the Feeling and Butts Remix/Medly is two that are different genre. I've yet to find a song I didn't like from them.
You have just been introduced to the best a cappella group out there (sorry not a fan of PTX). These guys are all so talented. They lean towards country but they can do any genre. They all can take the lead depending on whos voice is best for the song. They are known for their tight harmonies. Tim Foust is one of the best bass (not baritone) singers out there & their beatboxer vocal percussionist Adam Rupp can simulate any sound. This song is very old & is done in the bluegrass country style. It was used in the movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" starring George Clooney.
Home Free is 1000 times better than PTX in my opinion.
💯Correct Home Free is tons better than PTX.
@@gingermarion874 ME TOO!!!!
@Almost Average Heck yah!!
Home Free does almost any "melodic" genre. Country, blues, R&B, gospel, pop, songs from musicals (you need to check out "Try Everything," their cover from Zootopia...). You name it, if it's melodic, they're likely to have a sample. They do it well--they never seem to let the spirit and soul of the song down. This piece is built on what's sometimes called "old-timey" country, with the character shaped before recording was common. The original collected version goes back to a songbook from 1913 and can be assumed to have even older roots. The thing is, Home Free are talented, skilled, conscientious, and FUN. They somehow combine professionalism, mischief, and real musical soul. Over and over again.
Home Free. With this song they've turned me into a man of constant listening.
"When a Man Loves a Woman," "End of the Road," "Working for a Living," "Sea Shanty Medley," "How Great Thou Art," "Brothers in Arms," "Listen to the Music." "7 Bridges Road," "Zootopia- Try Everything," They do have some verity, but they're based in country." "Country Road," "Hillbilly Bone," "Forever and Ever Amen," "Colder Weather."
Good luck in choosing!😀 More Home Free, please. Don't let me down.
Home Free so fun and no only country. More, please. Also I enjoyed your Dimash and Diana reactions. Two more international singers you must see, Sohyang "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and Hua Chenyu "Nunchucks". Sohyang is Korean, Hua Chenyu is Chinese. Add to your world.
"Nunchucks" + Hua Chenyu's healing trilogy, especially "Conversations with Martian Children" MV + live. Best thing I've ever seen on healing. Sohyang also for healing, but different. Both mix cultures, too. She'll love them!
Home Free ONE VOICE was amazing! Look it up! 😉👍😎🤙🥰
Awesome reaction! They call themselves country a cappella, but they can literally do almost any genre! Want to see a completely different vibe, check out their cover of End of the Road! That's a huge awesome rabbit hole to go down! You'll likely become a "Home-Fry " like the rest of us fans! 😆
Tim Foust the bass, is know as a "Bassoo Profundo". He has an absolutely amazing range, from 2nd tenor to amazing bass.
I would highly recommend Home Free's cover of
When will I be Loved
Brother in Arms
And
End of the Road
Also add Elvira preformed with the Oak Ridge Boys
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole 🕳. My I suggest When a Man Loves a Woman, Butts Remix/Medley, maybe some Doobie Brothers cover Listen to the Music. They have 140+ songs some originals, Like, Dreamer is a great original. Have fun
Excellent choice, excellent reaction. Tim Faust for the win.
Gee Linda I couldn't have said it better. Love my home free.
Hey from Florida I love your Vibe! The fact your worldwide's amazing I love culture! Let alone Home Free. You are in for a ride girlfriend!
The song was actually written by Dick Burnett in 1913... than covered by The Stanley Brothers in 1960 which is the version everyone covers... The Soggy Bottom Boys did it for the Coen Bros flick O Brother, Where Art Thou?....
I was blown away the first time I heard Home Free, too. I had heard of beatboxing, but I never heard anyone do it until Home Free. Adam Rupp's beatboxing is highlighted a bit more in their cover of Percy Sledge's "When a Man Loves a Woman." Also, this song (above) is from the soundtrack of "O Brother, Where Art Thou?"
This song was written in the early 1900s!!
@@carolyntaylor7 HA! I just looked at the clock and noticed it's 7:15 PM. In military time, aka a 24-hour clock, that's 1915! So I'm living through the early 1900s right now! 😆I noticed that the original title was "Farewell Song" in 1913, so thank you for that bit of musical history!
Hey Rosalie! Try Home Free's "When a Man Loves a Woman....you will melt.
Home Free does everything and does it all well.
Home Free is the best as they won the sing off against all others. Home free started 22 years ago and have just gotten better and better. I suggest the next one you do of Home Free is Ring of Fire and Avi Kaplan is in that one also.
Helplessly hoping shows off there harmonies
Tim is the best bass around! And Adam, the beatboxer has won several world competitions....the best in the world! Keep going down Homefrees rabbit hole you will see they do many different genres
If you were an AVB fan these guys are right up your alley.
You'll find out that they are incredibly versatile across music genre's, and their versatility will blow you away.
You have chosen wisely there is no better example of acapella than Home Free suggestions in the comments.
Go down this rabbit hole and the Home Fries will follow.
End of the Road is your next step.
Oh they do all kinds of genres. Pop, classic pop, country, bluesy...you name it, they can do it. They lean country but love and perform all kinds of music. The bass (not baritone, he's a true bass) has solo work of 50's Doo-Wop. The main singer in this video has a solo video of him singing "Bring Him Home" from Les Mis. "Love Train" "Unchained Melody" "Can't Stop The Feelin" "Listen To The Music" "When A Man Loves A Woman"....the list goes on and on of non country songs they have done.
This song is fire, loved the review and reaction..
Thank you 🤠
Two good songs are Home Free - "Country Fried Pop Medley" 17 Artists, 15 Songs, 1 Amazing Mashup and "When a Man Loves a Women"
New sub! Home Free is the best!! Can't wait for more. Btw, fans of Home Free are called home fries -------> 🍟 Thanks Rosalie. 💙
oh good to know :) Thank you! :)
Every sound heard is just human voices doing it acapella...these guys are amazing.
I think this is there best song, of many great ones. It's like their magnum opus!
I think you would enjoy their cover of Brother originally by Need to Breathe. Their voices are fantastic. The group has been together over 20 years. Some members have come and gone but the beat boxer is one of the founding members.
They sing all kinds of music! Covers and they have some of their on songs! Listen to Mayday & you will hear Tim's (the bass) range. You will be amazed! They are very patriotic also!
Subbed for HF - keep em coming - you won't be disappointed with their talent and versatility! They don't limit themselves to country and bluegrass
that's good to know :) I'm excited to check out more. Had no idea they do other stuff too, but I like not knowing much at first. It allows me to have a fresh perspective and for others to then comment with what they know. I'm excited to check out more. :) Stay tuned
Check out their cover of Can't Stop the Feeling in which they do an instrumental interlude and try their more recent version of Listen to the Music.
I believe that you may have stumbled upon the best a capella group out there in my opinion however I really enjoy PTX and Voice Play and voctave there all amazing groups for sure but Home Free are the masters of harmonies and just a side note Home Free and Voice Play are close friends and have calibrated together on different projects Geoff also arranged the video for Home Free and the oakridge boys singing their classic Elvira.
As you get into them you will discover Tim Foist has a 5+ octave voice range. Sub basement to the penthouse.
This song is a bluegrass song. I'm in my mid 60's and I can recall hearing my grandmother play this record when I was 4 years old, and she only listened to bluegrass music. I think this is from either Bill Monroe or The Stanley Brothers. You will be pleasantly surprised with everything Home Free has done! Dive deep into Home Free...I promise, you won't regret it!!!
Treat yourself. Listen to when a man loves a woman. Awesome
I used to listen to the Christian group Acapella also I am a homefry and would love to here more homefree
more coming very soon :)
Home Free does occasionally wander off the Country Reservation, with spectacular results. Numbers like Auld Lang Syne, Helplessly Hoping, and When a Man Loves a Woman will produce the audio equivalent of what one feels in the middle of a Herbal Essences commercial.
Other wonderful a capella groups Pentatonix, Voiceplay and Voctave, plus the bass singer of Voiceplay Goeff Castellucci has his own channel where he posts great covers.
yea Rosalie, they are a real good group. I think you will like them.
Home Free goes far beyond what we call “country”. Check out their other songs and you will become more confused as to what to call them. Go in order from their “Butts med. to How Great Thou Art, to Brothers in Arms, then back up the emotions to My Church, to One Man Band.
If you are in a Christmas mood, listen to Grandma Got Run over by a Rain deer, to Mary Did You Know.
They may be called Country , but there’s nothing that can’t do.
Add another order of home fries for some more Home Free! Helplessly Hoping is another EXCELLENT song to review.
Home ❤Free equals awesomeness ❤
The live version of this Tim the bass drops an incredible F1!!
Love the reaction, your enthusiasm is contagious LOL ! Home Free does just about any Genre of music - although they lean country. You can find religious, Jazz, pop, boy band, country and original music, etc. that they have covered/created. And it is ALL good and even GREAT ! For some of their best, try their covers of 'Brothers in Arms', 'When a Man Loves a Woman', 'In the Blood', 'How Great Thou Art' and many more !
Rosalie, this is the tip of the iceberg. Multiple genres, originals and covers. Well over 100 videos. Hard to pick a next one for you to listen to because they are all so good.
As a few others have mentioned. Home Free is more country _themed_ than a full on country group. They of course have country music in their repertoire. I recommend their covers of 'Think A Little Less', 'Die A Happy Man' and their original song, 'Why Not.'
Butts Medley is a must see!
HOME FREE, WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN is a must.
I love seeing first reactions to Home Free. I have seen your later reactions and am glad that you are seeing some of their variety. They are all so talented. Happy listening!
I'm a huge Crosby, Stills & Nash fan and HF's version of "Helplessly Hoping" is just incredible, brought tears of joy to my face. HF's version (with Avi Kaplan from PTX) of Johnny Cash's "Ring Of Fire" is also 🔥
Bless your heart, you ain't heard nothing yet! 😉 They do it all, so buckle up!, and hang on tight!!! We're here for it, so let's go!!! New sub 😁
:D I'm excited to check out more. Thank you :)
Home Free is the group that I listen to most! Keep going, my friend!
Their version of, "When a man loves a woman"(Percy Sledge) will blow you away.
Please do more home free!!! Like ring of fire and always do there live versions as well a lot of times they’ll change it for the live version to include more bass notes!!
Loved your reaction! Looking forward to more Home Free Reactions!
Welcome to the basket! Home Free fans are called Home Fries, and once you jump in the basket, you will find so many things to react to!!! Highly suggest you listen to many songs and learn who they are BEFORE you react to Mayday....
They have a huge and diverse catalog. They have also have been amazing for their fans, the Home Fries, by keeping us sane during quarantine by releasing a new song/video every 2 weeks. Their live concerts are amazing too with their bass Tim Foust, shaking you in your chair and entertaining with their comedy. Truly their isnt a bad song in their catalog. Pick your favorites and enjoy the ride.
Home Free is the real deal. They’re amazingly talented. They sing all genres of music. For blues try Blue Ain’t Your Color or Folsom Prison Blues. For Christian music try How Great Thou Art, Angels We Have Heard on High. For hip hop type music try End of the Road. For pop try Meant to Be, Mayday. For Country try Country Roads, What We Ain’t Got, Die a Happy Man. Some of my favorites are Helplessly Hoping, Brothers in Arms, I Can’t Outrun You (lots of bass in those last two). They won season 4 of the NBC show the Sing Off. PTX won season 3. Good reaction!😃
I have a genuine question. Why no Hillbilly Bone on the list? Do people not know about it, forget about it, or don't like it? I can't imagine it's the last reason because its not only one of their best songs, it's also one of their most fun, and it makes for an excellent reaction. For whatever reason we get dozens of Sea Shanty reactions which is pretty bad by Home Free standards but only a few reactions to some of their greats.
@@wk1579 Yes, Hillbilly Bone, Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget, Sold, Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer, and Butts Remix for comedy. I'd add Do You Hear What I Hear for Christian music. Heck, throw a dart at the list. They're all good.
@@wk1579 I just forgot about it. And I love the Sea Shanty Medley. They did it in a TikTok style to emulate the other shanties on TikTok. And it was done during Covid so they couldn’t even get together. I wish more people would react to Helplessly Hoping, Country Roads and Brothers in Arms which are my personal favorites. Brother is becoming another favorite for the song and their craziness.
Please check out more of their songs they are the best accopella group on the planet. End of the road cover of boys ii men, When a man loves a woman, ring of fire etc.
This is one of my favorite videos. Love these guys so much.❤️
You really need to check out the Home Free Butts remix. Even though the video is completely ridiculous, their music is on point as always. And it covers different types of music that shows their range a little better.
