Not only are they superior in multiple genres, but they have more fun than just about any group I've ever watched.
got another one for ya in this case.....Peter Hollens (I think he was an opera singer at one time) and Tim Foust (the bass guy with the stare) did Misty Moutains. That will blow your mind.
Thank yoouf or the recomendations! Ill add them to the list :)
@@JimGames he stares deep into your eyes in that one too.
I was just going to make the same suggestion. 👍
This is a must!
@@JimGames On the song Misty Mountains, Tim will bore into your soul, I hope you listen to it.
Welcome to Home Free rabbit hole Adam Rupp the beat boxer is known as the freak of nature , in concert lead singer Austin Brown and Adam do a duet of harmonicas love these guys, they just did a video with Don Mclean American Pie. They also have sung with Alabama, Kenny Rogers, Oak Ridge Boys and Lee Greenwood. They also have many originals to check out Dive Bar Saints, Snow Globe (may be considered Christmas but my favorite) Dreamer just to name a few
Rabbit hole is right. Just watched my first video yesterday and I think I've watched them all by now.
@@vicki8042 I binged watched them all too when I first stumbled onto them! Aren’t they great!?!?
The jaw or Jews harp is done by Chance,
Their Beat Boxer is = Adam Rupp (called A Freak of Nature)
High Tenor = Austin Brown, classically trained
Tenor=Rob Lundquist, The Beard
Baritone/Bass=Adam, but goes by Chance, cool dude
Bass=Tim Foust, 5+ range , Unreal !!!!! Can go to tenor from a growl !!!
First off, Adam Rupp drum solo. AMAZING! Other songs, oh man there are so many. They just did one with Don Mclean, "American Pie", awesome. Then there's "The Gambler", "Folsom Prison Blues", "The Butts Remix", "Ring of Fire" with Avi from PTX, "Elvira", "All about that Bass", "My Church", "End of the Road"...the list is never ending!
I love when HomeFree goes R&B. I can recommend: End of the Road. Blue ain't your color is also a good one, a little bit Temptations style.
The sound is a mouth harp or Jew Harp, and Adam Chance is the one doing it. Yes, Really, that is Adam Rupp doing the harmonica impersonation....if you want a great Beat Box/Bass extravaganza, even though the season it past, check out "Do you hear what I hear", also Adam has a beatbox solo you can hear...9 minutes of just him..also Pentatonix and Home Free don't record what they can't perform live, with the exception of "American Pie" where the beat boxing is insane....and they say he almost passed out 3 times while trying to do it live. Also check out "Folsom Prison Blues" and "The Ring of Fire"....all amazing. Tim Foust, the bass, has a 5 octave range and has the "dragon breath" lows. If you want to see their funny side, check out "The Butts Remix" or "All about that bass". You can't go wrong with anything Pentatonix or Home Free.
You got it all right but one thing it's Tim Foust. not Faust
@@miamidolphinsfan Thank you, damn early morning fingers...I corrected it.
@@wirelessmikedj7784 ok cool....I see folks use that though all the time, and I'm like "show the man enough respect to get his name right
It a jaw harp, not a jew harp also.
@@marlahudgins7038 actually I believe it is another name for the same instrument, also called a mouth harp and several other name.
There is some post production going on in this cover when not done live. They layer Adam Rupp's vocal percussion tracks so he can keep the drum part going and still throw in the vocal harmonica. (When live, he uses a looper.) Speaking of looper, live, they also loop Adam Chance's jaw harp (didgeridoo) and even the doo doots that sounds like tree frogs. On the music video, they use seperate tracks. I would have to go back and check whether Tim Foust, bass... the man whose eyes you fell into, is doing all the bass tracks on this one. Sometimes Tim will do all the bass, sometimes Adam "Chance" will, sometimes they take turns with Chance covering bass while Tim solos... it depends on the song.
The post production, unless another HomeFry corrects me, is the crackle (also used it My Church.) There is also some reverb on Austin Brown's last solo part.
Love Home Free!
I recommend you also react to Adam Rupp's "Drum Solo". If you need more intimate eye contact with Tim Foust and want your soul shaken and stirred, check out Peter Holens and Tim Foust covering Misty Mountains.
They have some reverb on Adams drums as well. I don't really see adding that stuff here as any different than when you're recording a band. If production thinks the drums need to be wet, they do it, same here.
@@buddystewart2020 agreed. So many Home Fries want to deny that there is post production. Post production has its place. It's okay. Last night I was watching a reaction to a heavy metal band and the fan who requested it kept denying that there was autotune and a harmony filter being used on the voices. The reactor is in the industry and trying to be as nice about it as possible, but you could hear how produced the sound was. Don't get me wrong. The song was awesome. The sound was awesome. It's just what it is.
@@rachelhurst3224 well the post production is there but auto tune is used very rarely with most acapella groups if you watch the live recorded stuff they sound almost identical to the pre recorded videos i could be wrong
Please don't misunderstand me. I didn't say HF used autotune. I have never noticed it on any of the a cappella bands. The autotune I was referring to was o a heavy metal band.
Thanks Rachel, great inputs to understand better this rich & clever & talented piece..indivudual songs & "noises" & accents & images it's all blending so well
Jim new sub here, and your next should be their latest....they collabed with 75 year old Don McLean to cover his iconic son (Bye Bye Miss) American Pie, released just last Wednesday....it's mind-blowing !!! The beatboxing is next level and they do the 8:30 long version...pay attention to the way it's filmed and the set....it's truly their best ever
Just subbed too! I recommend American Pie, also!
@@cjsjr249 awesome Miss Leandra !!
For a fun surprise, try their Ring Of Fire with a special guest. They clearly have a sense of fun too, so try songs like Moonshine and Butts Remix.
Great reaction! Homefree is the real deal! So much talent in this group. The first guy to sing his name is Austin . Second guy to sing guy with beard and glasses name is Rob. The bass singer who goes into the basement with his vocals, his name is Tim Foust ( he has a 5 octave range singing voice). To check out his low bass his collab with Peter Hollens "Misty Mountains". His high range example, Homefrees cover of Cams "Mayday". The beatboxer of the group name Adam Rupp is a freak of nature. The other guy doing the digereedo and singing baritone name Adam Chance. There are so many great songs to choose from. Welcome to your Homefree journey! Enjoy! Stay safe and healthy and have a blessed day!
Thank you for the info Carla!
@@JimGames you are welcome! I hope it helps.
I just listened to Tim’s rendition of “I just can’t stop falling in love with you”. I think it shows Tim’s range a bit better.
@@jeffsmith266 it does show his range and it is a beautiful rendition. I love it! It is the only other rendition I listen to besides Elvis' rendition. Tim is a beast! But all of them are amazing talents!!! Thank you for replying.😊
I loved your reaction and subscribed in hopes of other Home Free reactions very soon! Just one thing: you will get suggestions to react to Mayday by Home Free - please, please wait until you have reacted to at least 8 - 10 other videos and have an idea in which range each member of the group usually sings!
Thank you! I love theese kind of tips. Ill be sure to follow your advice. Experincing great artists with large groups of fans is so much fun. I have been told Home Free has 100+ Songs avalibe to react to. I plan on doing as many as I can but Ill save "Mayday" until I have a better understanding of the group. :)
@@JimGames Thank you! Yes Home Free st the moment has 124 music videos on their channel + quite a lot of Behind the Scenes stuff. And then there are side projects on other channels, too!
Home free is so versatile, talent in spades and lots of humor. And they are very down to earth.
Welcome to the Rabbit Hole that is Home Free. Once you get started, you won't want to stop. Yes, they do covers, but they also have many, many originals, too. I think the people have already given you some really good choices, so I'll wait to give you my picks, for now. Loved your reaction so much, that I just subscribed.
Thank you so much for the kind words and subscribing Cindy!
Welcome to Home Free! They are INSANELY talented. Each one of them brings their own special thing to the group. Together they are just amazing. Enjoy the journey of learning about them!
The boys are so serious in this one lol to see a lighter side of them check out ‘Butts Remix’, ‘Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget’ and ‘All About That Bass’. They also do an amazing cover of ‘Ring of Fire’ which features Avi Kaplan from Pentatonix 😁
Just subscribed. I love home free. They pick songs that tell a story. They are considered a country a cappella group. They song other genre's as well. Their latest collaboration was with The Don McLean... writer and singer of the iconic song American Pie. This year it's the 50th anniversary of that song. They released it on Feb 3rd which was the 62nd year the plane carrying Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper and Richie Valens crashed a few minutes of taking off, killing everyone on board. Most people think of it as The Day the Music Died. It's an 8+ minute song, but so worth watching. The a cappella groups know each other very well and on occasion collaborate with members of the other groups. Home Free has a Hugh library of songs to listen too. They're a fun loving group and it shows up in slot of their songs, but when it comes to being serious they've got that in spades. Looking forward to your journey through the accapella world.
Thank You for subscribing and all the information. I dont mind a long song at all! Im really looking forward to hearing more and sharing my reactions.
Oh boy there’s so much to tell you. I just discovered Home Free during the pandemic and they are amazing. Adam Rupp the beatboxer, is a trumpet player and is amazing. There’s a live video of him called Adam Rupp’s drum solo you can watch. Drums with this mouth. Chase does the mouth harp or jaw harp (not didgeridoo). He will use a looper when they sing this live as he says it hurts his voice to do it too long. Home Free won the NBC show the Sing Off in 2013 the year after Pentatonix won. They’re friends with lots of those ‘a cappella’ groups. Tim Foust, the bass, has a 5 octave range so he can sing tenor as well as bass. He has collaborated with Peter Hollens (another super talented singer) on Misty Mountains (from the Hobbit) where he goes so low at the end that the camera shakes. He’s blown speakers as well. They can all do some beatboxing too. Try Helplessly Hoping, End of the Road, Seven Bridges Road, Country Roads, I Can’t Outrun You to hear more incredible harmonies.
New sub! Love Home Free! You cannot go wrong with anything they do. One of my favorites is one of their earlier ones - Avicci’s WAKE ME UP.
Yes! One of my favorites also.
Thank you for subscribing :) Ill be sure to add "Wake me up" up to the list.
Thank You!! I kind of tired of everyone requesting this and "Ring of Fire"!! Some of their early stuff, like "Wake me up" and "Story of my life" are just as good, in my opinion.
They are on the top of the world. Best out there. Home Free can sing anything. Can't wait for more.
And believe it or not
...they sound WAY better in a live performance 💚👣😊
Agreed!
That sound everyone mistakes as the didgeridoo is actually the jaw harp. The jaw harp is used in songs from the Appalachian Mountains. And Tim's voice tends to be a panty dropper, just watch some of the female reactions.
Your gonna be blown away with their Ring of Fire cover
Yo Jim - you got another subscriber - let you in on a little secret - the more you listen and react to Home Free - you'll not only become a fanatic (they are called Home Fries) but you'll gain a ton of fanatical Home Fries subscribing to your channel...like me.
These guys are the real deal but they certainly know how to have fun making fantastic music - they can cover any genre of music and usually when they cover a song, they completely own it...no brag just fact. Their blend is certainly some of the best I've ever heard...not to down any other a Capella groups but there's just something about their harmonies....just so natural and the beat boxer is a freakin' genius....
I, like you was amazed the first time I heard them and I was hooked...that's all I can say.
Looking forward to more Home Free Reaction my new friend!!
RichieC (Atlanta)
Hey Richie! This preformance was incredible. I honestlycant wait to hear more. Thanks for the sub my friend!
Very nice reaction. Thank you. Not a didgerido imitation, but, rather, an a capella mouth harp sound which was more commonly referred to as a Jews harp in the deep South in the old days. I'm with you about the harmonica sounds. Wow. I can listen to Adam play the fake harmonica all day long. Thank you for sharing your reaction with us.
More! More! Great reaction!
Thank you! Will do!
My other Home Free favorite right now is "Folsom Prison Blues"
Thank you very much for a great reaction. Home Free really are such a great group, five individually talented guys, who together make something even more special. And yet, they have a lot of fun doing it as well. If you want more dangerous lows from Tim Foust, try their version of Folsom Prison Blues, if you want some great Americana, they've just released American Pie, with Don McLean, and if you want to laugh at their silliness, and get an idea of who these guys are try their quarantine video for Sunday Best.
Great reaction and thanks for doing it. This is just the beginning. Multi-talented, multi-octaves, multi-genres. Covers and originals. So many reactions to do with well over 100 videos. Can’t Stop the Feeling, Helplessly Hoping, Do You Hear What I Hear, God Bless the USA (with Lee Greenwood), and their latest American Pie (with Don McLean) to name a handful. Also Adam’s (beatboxer/2-time Champion) solos will amaze you along with Tim’s bass (Misty Mountain collaboration with Peter Hollens is insane). Welcome to HF and strap in!
I really liked you're style reacting. I'm a home free guy. I want to see you do more and pick these sounds apart. The beat boxer is a force. None better. All four vocalist are at the top of their game. And you will see they switch vocal parts their abilities to do this are astonishing. Thanks for giving them an ear.
Thank you! I cant wait to react to more home Free.
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole, its awesome down here! The long haired Bass is Tim Foust, has octave range. I sub'd, just to see more of your reactions.
Thanks for the sub!
Home Free. With this song they've turned me into a man of constant listening.
Clear and straight reaction. Loved that.
Glad you saw this one.. We have seen them do this in a live performance and it is even more mind blowing.. Austin (the high tenor who sings first) joins the beatboxer (Adam Rupp) and harmonizes with his "own" mouth sounding harmonica.. .. amazing. If you ever get the chance.. see them! SO so many good songs the do. Tim Foust (the super bass whose eyes captured you) was on a live interview yesterday with another reactioner and one of the first comments that was made was WOW your voice is really low.. Tims reaction: Did you think I used a voice changer?? LOL soo funny.. and yes he has an incredible range Tim also sings the lead on Snowglobe.. (yes.. hes the chameleon in the leather jacket singing super high) Watch Rob (the bearded one in the glasses) sing lead in a very soulful cover of End Of The Road.. the list is endless. Thanks!
The base is Tim Faust he has 5 octaves, when you get a chance checkout a video Misty Mountain. It's another acapella artist Peter Hollens featuring Tim Faust it's amazing.
It’s written Foust😉
Welcome to Home Free Fandom! Anything by them is wonderful but my favorite is Helplessly hoping ( Crosby Stills Nash cover) five part harmony is insane!
Oh and if Tim's bass impressed try Peter Hollens-Tim Foust Misty Mountains
Want to hear something insane harmonies, Seven Bridges Road and Helpless Hoping are two to react to
These guys are awesome. 100% A Capella. They are the best. Check out their cover of the O'Jays, Love Train, or Hillbilly Bone.
I had to sub since it seems like you'll be doing more Home Free. Definitely try their "Folsom Prison Blues", "Butts Medley", "Blue Ain't Your Color", "Do You Hear What I Hear" and "American Pie".
Hello, Jim! I just stumbled upon your channel via my Home page. I have been a fan of these guys since their first appearance on the Sing Off in 2013. There were on the season after Pentatonix. This is one of their best! They have performed this live with a looper so they can sing while the background vocals can be played simultaneously. Adam, the beatboxer, manages the looper while performing! The live version is just as good, or better! I didn’t read all of the comments (there were over 100), but the sound at the beginning is a jaw harp, not the digeradoo. I have already subscribed since it is obvious that you really enjoyed this and you said you would definitely check out more Home Free! I would like to suggest one or two. They’re not all filled with these sound effects, but they’re still really good! Check out their Ed Sheeran’s cover of “Castle On the Hill”, and Johnny Cash’s cover of “Folsom Prison Blues”!
Welcome to the Home Free world, where their loyal supporters are called Home Fries. While basically Country. They take on all genres, and they are doing more and more originals. They just released a music video featuring Don McLean singing “American Pie”. My personal favorites: “In The Blood”, “Everybody Walking The Line”, “Ring of Fire”, “How Great Thou Art” (filmed in the Austrian Alps), and so many more that my old brain can’t name right now.
Enjoy the journey.
You need to try there Butts remix!!
Jim, please do American Pie with the original singer and Home Free. It awesome 🎶🎶🎶💕💕
Love Home Free. They can do anything and make it not just good but GREAT. Their fans are called Home fries and they have a lot of fans. Thank you for reacting to them.
Great review, man. I really enjoyed it and subscribed to hear more. These guys have been around since 2001 or so. They’ve had a number of member changes over the years. They got really famous after winning The Sing Off in 2013. I’m looking forward to more Home Free. Note that they have several songs without beatboxing so they have a full five part harmony.
Oh, yeah, Tim's "Deliverance" stare is pretty soul grabbing. Great reaction to this fabulous group. Going to go poke around now and see what else you've watched from them. If you haven't already, definitely check out their cover of the Doobie Brothers' Listen to the Music. Fabulous harmonies and out of this world vocal percussion.
The more I lesson to home free to more I love them. A bunch of great guys. Do more home free ,please.
This is the only group of the acapella bands that I've seen live. I can assure you, it's voices. They have 3 voices that go low enough in this group that it shakes the entire theater or venue: Tim Foust (bass), Adam "Chance" Chance (baritone in the back left), and Adam "Adam" Rupp (beatboxer).
Adam is their beatboxer and his talent is crazy. While I love Layne (VoicePlay) and Kevin (Pentatonix), Adam's my favorite and sounds the closest to a drum kit to me (he has solo videos on RUclips that you can check out; they are the solos he does in live performance at their concerts). While Adam is the official beatboxer of the group, Rob (beard with overalls in the front) has been known to hold down the beatboxing on the rare occasions that Adam sings. I've even seen a video where all of them beatbox and kind of have a mini-contest almost, which Adam clearly wins. But they can all do a little of it, enough to be respectable. Their cover with the Oak Ridge Boys of "Elvira" also showcases some bass and some drums.
If you are not a country fan per se, check out their cover of Boyz II Men's "End of the Road" for some R&B or "Country Fried Pop Medley" for some pop. They also do an awesome remix of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" (featuring Avi Kaplan from Pentatonix) that has a reggae dance hall feel.
Austin (the lead in this) has the lead role in a number of their arrangements is featured in their newest, "When a Man Loves a Woman." He also did a solo of "Unchained Melody." He's done a version with Home Free of "Bring Him Home" from 'Les Miserables.'
Their beatboxer does an amazing drum solo (Adam Rupp) Love all their music.
These guys put on a Fabulous concert !! I have seen this song performed live and it is Amazing, just hard to believe but they do it and do it well !!! Start on your Home Free journey and the Home Fries will be along for the ride with you. They have a huge catalogue of songs, something for everyone !! Thanks for the great reaction.
Here's another little mind-blowing tidbit: the beatboxing harmonica (honestly all done by his lonesome) was a trumpet performance major in college. So he has other talents that only occasionally show up in Home Free performances... AND he can sing - VERY well. Adam Rupp was one of the two brothers who founded the group many years ago.
The first time I heard this,I too was blown away. There is so much going on! They are so talented,individually and together. I have listened to many since and they are always excellent. I love the oak tree arch as their backdrop; I hear it is a historical place in Alabama. Austin Brown,who sings the most in this song,is from Georgia.
Welcome to the HOME FREE rabbit hole! Enjoy the ride! ♥️♥️♥️
Chance is doing the mouth harp sound! Last man shown before the end read his lips. Adam is beatboxer. Look at his drum solo! MAYDAY you won't believe what Tim does!
Beyond that Adam has a natural talent, to imitate sounds, he also work really hard to maintaine, and develope that talent.
You don't become a two time beatbox champion, if you sit on your butt.
Adam is a world class beatboxer, and one in a million.
Adam Rupp is GOAT beatboxer and has won some local sweepstakes in Midwest. He never had time to compete internationally.
They do have incredible voices. Even Adam (the beatboxer) is a great singer - although you seldom hear him sing. They have so much content out there. Their cover of "Can't Stop the Feeling" gives you a good picture of what they can all do. Tim, the bass, has a 5-octave range & does a great job in the higher range as well. One of their older videos that is ton of fun is "The Butts Remix". It will make you laugh but also show you how creative they are. Their two newest videos are a remake of "American Pie" (which features Don McLean), and a cover of "When A Man Loves A Woman". The second one just dropped today. To be honest, I don't think you'll find a bad song by Home Free. I certainly haven't. (Oh, another one that tends to amaze people is their cover of Boyz II Men's "End of the Road".) Enjoyed your reaction. Glad you decided to check out Home Free.
So many Home Free songs.. Ring of Fire, Mayday, American Pie, Walking this land is a must. So many!!
Yaaay! You found Home Free! Another amazing rabbit-hole to fall down - and they ARE amazing.
The beatboxer is Adam Rupp - he's won awards for his beatboxing. If you thought he was great on this, you should hear him in their cover of Folsom Prison Blues - along with Tim Foust, the bass guy, who hits notes you'll feel in your guts. And they have a brilliant sense of humour, which is well showcased in their 'Butts Medley/Remix,' and covers like 'All About That Bass.'
(You also need to see their cover of 'MayDay' - but NOT YET! To get the maximum experience of that one, you have to listen to a few of their others first, to get a good feel for what they can all do in the group. Don't question it, just go with it - it'll be worth it, I promise... 😉)
Home Free is in my opinion the best acapella group, they're mostly doing country, but goes into other genres too. I would check out Folsom Prison Blues, cover by Johnny Cash next for both sound effects and awesome vocals
I love watching the reactors experiencing Home Free early on. I say early on because all of us Home Fries (devoted Home Free fans) know the first time will not be the last. Watching your wonderment is like experiencing it ourselves all over again. Some people call it the Home Free rabbit hole. It's more like a black hole to me because once you cross that event horizon, there's no going back.
I love them. From the beginning your hooked..then you stuck on that harmonica only to be floored by Tim. Just amazing. And then that scratch!
You want Tim at his most intense? Listen to him in Misty Mountain, You'll be shaking in your shoes.
You haven't heard nothing yet boy are you in for a big treat with this group. That have a variety of stuff from country to pop, gospel and Christmas. Cover songs and originals.
(I'm gonna make 2 comments, one to explain Home Free a little and the other ones are for the reaction request)...
Home Free is definitely one of my all-time favorite bands. Us Home Free fans are called, Home Fries. You'll have to watch them when they were on The Sing Off, to find out why. The members names are Austin Brown from Georgia (he was the lead on this song), Rob Lindquist from Minnesota (the one in the big beard), Adam Chance from Alabama, we call him Chance though, because they have 2 Adams in the Band (he's the one in the black vest). Tim Foust from Texas (the bass singer with the 👁️👁️) and Adam Rupp from Minnesota (the beat boxer). Adam Rupp and his brother Chris Rupp started this band in 2000.... You'll see Chris in other videos. In 2013 they competed and won the 4th season of the Sing Off. They won a recording contract with Sony Music. In 2016 Chris Rupp decided to leave Home Free to go solo (that's why we have Chance now). Before the member joined the band Austin was a singer on the Royal Caribbean cruise ship, Rob was a bartender, Tim Foust was a teacher and Chance was in a band called Street Corner Symphony.
So many reactors resisted acapella requests. Like you, they were blown away by the vocals, the bass and the beatboxing. It was nice watching your reaction to something new.

There is a live version of this at one of their concerts. Just amazing.
Haha. Brother, you’ve hit on THE a cappella groups of ALL a cappella groups!! Enjoy the journey you’re about to embark upon! Can’t wait to see more of your HF reactions. You are clearly Home Fry bound. Lol
They are they best! Please play more Home Free. You won’t regret it. 😊
This is a rabbit hole you are going to love. I love every song they’ve covered, but their original tracks are amazing. Seriously, there are no bad videos by Home Free.
I love your reactions to these A Cappella groups. I read in a comment that they, Home Free, do use some studio tricks. These guys won the Sing-off in 2012. I have been a fan, but I do know PTX does not us studio tricks.
This is such a fun song from them! Gotta love some Home Free. All 3 of the acapella groups you have reacted to bring their own things to the music they do and are all so fun in different ways! It's amazing and if you want another side of Tim (the bass who is staring into your soul) check out their cover of Mayday. You have fun yourself quite the rabbit hole to fall down with these three, there is so much to unpack and uncover. I'm new to the channel, but totally along for the ride.
They do an amazing cover of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire". It features Avi Caplan former Pentatonix bass. Between him and Tim Foust (Home Free bass that stared into your soul🤭😂) the best bass collaboration...along with amazing vocals from the whole group..I loved your reaction ..you already got me as a sub when you reacted to Angelina Jordan "I put a Spell on You" and now you've discovered my second obsession yay!
Ill add it to the list! Thank you for the sub :)
The song was in O Brother Where Art Thou. Yes the sound is a jaw harp make by the guy rear left. They are in Alabama & if you notice it is raining.
This song was written in 1913. By Dick Burnett. He was a blind fiddle player. From here in Kentucky.
To continue on your acapella journey, check out the Bass Gang. To be fair, they have a couple of songs with minor instrumentation but 99% is acapella. While they all have bass voices (duh) they all have incredible ranges. Most of their songs are done on green screen because they live in different countries (one in Egypt (Marwan), one in the Czech Republic (Tomi P) , two from the US (one on the East Coast (Bobby Bass), one on the West (Peter Barber). Three of them met for the first time a few months ago in the Czech Republic but Marwan could not get his visa approved in time.
Loved your reaction to Home Free!
You'll be a Home Fry in no time, if you aren't already! Home Free won the Sing Off the year after PTX, though they have been around much longer. Started by Adam Rupp and Chris Rupp (replaced now by Adam Chance) in Minnesota (where I also live) and evolved into the current group. Can't tell from this video, but they are a ton of fun!
There have been many great recommendations already, and I would also check out Country Fried Pop Medley, Blue Ain't Your Color, End of the Road and definitely Mayday (my abs fav one, but like some have mentioned keep this one until you have a few more under your belt and understand their "typical" roles). They also put out some awesome "Quarantine edition" videos: Quarantine, Sunday Best,, Moonshine, Meet in the Middle and Down to the Honkytonk are a few.
Oh, and there are a few different Adam Rupp Drum solo videos from over the years out there that will blow your mind! He has always been amazing, but it's cool to see him evolve.
Beatboxer is Adam Rupp, he does a live drum solo and other sounds...Bass is Tim Foust, he's from Port Arthur, Tx., (this was filmed on the La. border thus the rain and swap feel) although you think Tims look menacing is one of the more fun ones. If you want fun, they have a Butts Remix it's a combo of Country, Rock, and little Rap. Their version of Ring of Fire (Johnny Cash) style was created for a Acapella sing off, which they won, it usually the next song other reactors do... 1st Tenor - Austin Brown, 2nd Tenor w/glasses is Rob Lundquist, Beatboxer and third Tenor is Adam Rupp, Jaw Harp and Baritone is Adam Chance, and of course the Bass is Tim Foust.
Welcome to this rabbit hole! Some of my favorites of theirs are (in no particular order): Everybody Walkin This Land, In the Blood, My Church, Hillbilly Bone, Butts Remix, Mayday, Helplessly Hoping. . . You can't go wrong with any of their stuff.
As you said, you definitely need to react to more Home Free. Really enjoyed you sharing your introduction to them, you caught a lot of the details in their work in this song.
They do 2 versions of God Bless the USA, but the best one was released last 4th of July, featuring Lee Greenwood and the Air Force Band...ahmazing! And they also have a making the video of it also....pure talent, absolutely worth diving into...
You need to do the tribute they did to buy buy American pie with Don McLean as we celebrate the 50 year anniversary of the song! I think you will be knocked clear over!
Home Free does this song justice. They are Awesome
Check out Adam Rupp's (beatboxer but can also sing tenor also he is a 2X world champion beatboxer & only learned how to do it in college when his brother Chris started this group. Chris has since left & Chance took his place.) drum solo video. Tim Faust is the bass. Adam Chance (goes by Chance as to not cinfuse the 2 Adams in the group) is a baritone & Tim is working with Chance to open his vocal range too. Rob Lundquist (guy with beard & glasses) is the tenor & Austin Brown is lead tenor that can go into superior tenor.
Another vid you should check is Ring of Fire with guest Avi Kaplan from Pentatonix. Tim at the end of the song hits a G0. One of the lowest notes to ever be sung. Tim is also teaching Geoff from Voiceplay how to drop in & maintain the lower octaves without going "gravelly."
Check out Hillbilly Bone too.
You should watch Home Free, Ring of Fire. Avi from Pentatonix is in it.
Start your Home Free Journey by watching the "Sing Off" performances first!!!! (with judges comments) You'll get lots of request for this and "Ring of Fire", but they have so many great songs, both covers and originals. Their entire Album "Dive Bar Saints" is phenomenal. It has 10 original songs on it.
Let me be the 583rd person to welcome you down the Home Free rabbit hole! Nothing they do will disappoint you. They started out in my state of Minnesota, and they are simply (along with Pentatonix) the best acapella group I have EVER heard. Adam Rupp, the beatboxer/percussion machine/one-man band, is simply not human; I encourage you to check out his live drum solo, which will blow your mind, replace it, then blow it again. Your comment on Tim Foust (the bass) looking into your soul with a menacing glare is spot on; I encourage you to check out his duet with Peter Hollens, "Misty Mountains," where you will see that his low register comes directly from the mines of Moria. As for other Home Free songs to check out, I recommend...well, all of them. :) But specific suggestions are "How Great Thou Art" (chillingly and visually beautiful), "All About That Bass" (shows their goofy side), and probably my favorite Home Free song, "Do You Hear What I Hear?" It was filmed in front of our Winter Carnival Ice Castle here in Minnesota, and it shows off Tim's insane low range and Adam's inhuman percussion and song arrangement. From a new subscriber....ENJOY!!
Since you seem so taken wit the effects on this I'd recommend an earlier incarnation of Home Free doing Ring of Fire. It usually gets pushed because of the note Tim drops, literally, at the end, but most seem to miss Adams beautifully tuned splash cymbals. I've heard beat boxers, I've heard fake harmonicas, but I've never heard a complete drum kit coming out of one guys mouth. Amazing,
Agreed! Ring of Fire is Adam doing fireworks with his mouth all through the song! He is the GOAT!
You have been Home Fried! Welcome to your new obsession. I fell down their rabbit hole about 2 weeks ago and haven't come up for air yet. These guys are just amazing. I just subscribed to you as well. Nicely done and I'm looking forward to more!
Listen to their live performances and you can see how talented they are. Adam the beatboxer does a drum solo live and blows the audience away. The bass Tim blows a speaker at one point. Their cover of Ring of Fire is amazing!
I forgot to recommend...”AMERICAN PIE”..with DON MCLEAN!!! It’s the 50th anniversary of the song.....which he wrote & sang!!! At 75...Don Till has it !!!!! It’s pretty AWESOME ‼️
New subscriber here hoping for more Home Free. Some great recommendations made by other Home Fries. Moonshine is one of my favorites. Hillbilly bone is another great one. Have never heard a song that I didn't enjoy.
Well apparently they have over a 100 songs on RUclips Im going to try and react to every one of them. Thank you for subscribing!
Dan Tyminski of the group Union Station did George Clooney's singing voice in the movie. You might like to react to his version as well...
Great reaction, welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole 😁
Not sure if you want to record a reaction, but as has been mentioned, have a look on RUclips at this song performed live. Great explanation of the loop station (required for the concurrent parts), plus some great 'harmonica harmony'.
Recommended the live 'release party' version of 'Castle on the Hill'.
👍 from Australia 🇦🇺 😊
Adam Rupp is the beatboxer. There are videos of him doing drum solos, without drums.
And, Tim's bass has been known to blow out speakers.
Adam Rupp has won at least a couple of world beat-boxing competitions, and is a human drum kit and sound effects machine. They recently did a remake of "God Bless the USA" with Lee Greenwood, and he did a "jet flyover" at the end. Most recently they redid American Pie with Don McLean for its 50 anniversary, and he beatboxes for almost all of the 8-plus minutes without a break.
Sorry but Adam has never competed internationally. He has won local sweepstakes in Midwest. He has a champion belt, but that was a gift from a fan.
To me he is the greatest beatboxer ever!
Loved your reaction and yes they will continue to blow your mind with all that they can and do do with every song.
Check out Tim Faust / Misty Mountain. Hold on tight.
Forgot to add Peter Hollens with Tim above, Sorry.
You need to check out Home Free featuring Don McLean doing "American Pie." It was just released within the last few days. It is amazing!!
HA! Welcome to Home Free man! Another badass a capella group. So, next logical react is to Home Free doing "Ring of Fire" It features Avi from Pentatonix, and make sure you fasten your seat belt for this one. Tim Foust (bass) is amazing! They also do a killer version of "End of the Road" by Boyz 2 Men!
Try the new American Pie cover with Don McLean. Also Misty Mountains with Petter Hollens and Tim Foust.
