Yesss, that's Mr. Avi Kaplan. You should check out his recent solo work, it's amazing 🥰🥰🥰
I may have to do that
You might enjoy Avi Kaplan’s songs “Healing” and “It Knows Me”. They both have that southern gospel feel.
thanks for the suggestion.
Yes, Avi was with Pentatonix but now has a great solo career that is definitely worth checking out. He's a terrific songwriter.
Speaking of Avi Kaplan, he left Pentatonix in September 2017 for various reasons, including his mother's serious illness and tour burnout. His separation contract kept him from performing for almost 2 years, and when that expired, he released the first of many original songs, "Change on the Rise". Avi is currently on a 3rd US tour (with European tour coming in September), and since you liked his bass in "Ring of Fire", I'm sure you'll appreciate this video shot by an audience member at his May 18, 2024 concert in Atlanta. He uses the first verse of "Change on the Rise" as an intro/lead-in to one of my favorite songs of his, "Get Down". But he does "Change" at least an octave lower than the original recording, putting his opera basso profundo training to excellent use, rumbling both drinks and the audience's bodies with his clear, rich tone. and that super deep bass distorts the person's phone when he does a vocal for looping the chorus. The phone couldn't handle his voice (and he'd been known to blow speakers when he was with PTX). As you'll see, Avi does use instruments now. ruclips.net/video/dORvn7dJyQU/видео.html
The 2nd singer is Avi Kaplan. He is a solo artist now. He is very good. Need to look him up. He is more folk rock He writes his own songs and doing a tour now.
That's Tim for you. Blows out the speakers in shows😅
Great reaction. You might like their cover of My Church. They bring out the gospel in that one.
Another great one FOLSOM PRISON BLUES
Yep, that’s Tim Foust (of Home Free) singing that last note. When live his voice goes through you and kind of rattles you. He’s got a 5 octave range so not only can he go low he can sing high as well. He’s also a songwriter as are 2 other members of the group. When they were on the Sing Off they were told by the judges to mix it up so they went with a kind of reggae sound. Tim went even lower on the Sing Off and they just redid the song and Tim went pretty low in that one too. Tim collaborates with Peter Hollens (another a cappella singer) and they made an album but you might want to listen but Misty Mountains from the Hobbit is great!! Good one Josh!😍
Thanks for the response. What great info. I added your recommendations to my list and will get it added.
Did you notice when Tim hit the last low note Avi was so impressed he replaced his beanie hat with a cowboy hat 😊
New Home Frysubscriber because of the Home Free reaction.
When I heard Home Free perform this on the Sing Off I knew they would win the show. Thanks for the Home Free reactions
Ill have to check that out.
@@joshmurrayreactions If you check out their Sing Off performance, make sure you get the full videos with stuff before and the judge's comments after their performances.
Yep, that's the guy. Not only did Tim hit that note, he sustained it.
3:24 if that’s the case I would 100% recommend checking out Avi Kaplan here singing “Change on the Rise” it’s about as southern gospel bass-y as you can get haha.
That’s our Tim! Dropping down to the sub harmonics! He has a 5 octave range!
My favorite southern gospel piece by #homefree is their collaboration with Kenny Rogers on Children, Go Where I Send Thee. It's epic.
I second this suggestion
Very nice, Josh. Subbed for more of your fun HF reactions!
If you're new to Home Free you might enjoy watching their performances in the "Sing Off" competition. That was their introduction to the whole country. You can watch them on RUclips, just do a search for Home Free Sing Off. I recommend watching the ones that include the judges comments. I promise you'll enjoy it.
This song is done in a country reggae beat. It showcases the higher & lower ranges of both Tim Foust & Avi Kaplan. That last note of Tim is impressive with how low he goes, but more impressive is how long he sustains the note. On the "Sing Off Show" that Home Free won in 2013 Tim goes even lower on this song "Ring Of Fire" & he impressed the judges so much that they gave them a standing ovation. And Adam Rupp once again was stellar in his vocal percussion. Home Free have just done a remake of this song for the 10 year anniversary.
More Home Free please!
If you'd like to see a different side of them check out All About That Bass, or Butts Remix.
Home Free has upgraded covers and great originals. Keep going! #Home Free
You might enjoy Elvira with the Oak Ridge Boys. Also for bass Brothers in Arms, to see their funny side would be Butts Remix or All About That Bass, for country feels would be Hillbilly Bone or I Can't Outrun you, for Pirates Sea Shanty Medley and Skull and Bones (Feb video). Have fun!!
Home Free fans, called Home Fries, are very devoted fans and quite faithful and will help you with ideas and info for the group!!❤❤
Hope you enjoy and continue!!❤❤🏡🍟
Home Fries! haha I love it. Thank you for the support
Greetings from a danish fry / new sub when a new reactor say that they like them we will come running and the fries [ fan name ] are known for being the most loyal , friendly , accepting , respectful , loving fanbase so as you go down this deep rabbithole we´ll be along for the ride for southern gospel i think you would love their covers of 1. My Church 2. How Great Thou Art 3.Amazing Grace [ ft. Peter Hollens ] much love and respect from Denmark
Hello, new subscriber here! One of my favorites is their cover of Listen to the Music by the Doobie Brothers. They really make you forget that they are A Capella!
1st time here -- Avi Kaplan fan. Great reaction to an incredible version of this song.
Thank you!
#HOMEFREE....so good!
I'm here for your #HomeFree reactions ‼️ loved this one and " Man of constant sorrow " ‼️🤗 New subscriber here 😀
Home Free!! The best of the best!! Subbed for more of the boys!
Home Free is an amazing group of 5 talented musicians. Just love them. Great reaction. Thank you. New sub for more Home Free. All their songs are great !!🎵🔥🎶🦋
I have always thought Avi would make a great Southern Gospel Bass.
He is actually a classically/operatically trained Basso Profundo but does not lean
toward operatic singing.
He was with PTX for 6 years and left in 2017 to become a solo artist and also writes most of his own music.
Avi is solo now and has put out some amazing music
Here for Avi Kaplan ❤
🔥🔥🔥 #HomeFree #AviKaplan
Home Free is my favorite group. Tim's low bass voice and Austin high tenor. The harmonies are great and Avi's bass is good to. At the end Tim's voice went low. 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
If you want Bass you should try Home Free's version of Brothers in arms. In Blue ain't your color the bass is rumbling.
Or Hooked on a feeling by the Bass Gang featuring Tim Foust (who's the bass of Home Free (the one who did that low, sustained note at the end of this one)).
You would like their cover of My Church!
They just re-recorded this with their newer baritone/bass.
Home Free fans are called Home Fries
Home Free is an amazing A Capella group any song you pick will be amazing.

Directly after filming this video Home Free did Champagne Taste... which you see a bit of at the end. Since Avi was still there hanging out with his buddies he makes a quick appearance in that video in the bar scene. Do check it out. It's a lot of fun to watch.
Check out Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget. They filmed it just after filming Ring of Fire. Avi put in a surprise appearance during the filming. Watch Tim’s face when Avi walks past him.
Hi Josh That last note from Tim Foust was a G1 Growl note he has a 5.5 octave range.
I think you might enjoy How Great Thou Are and My Church
For a great gospel song check out Home Free's cover of How Great Thou Art and Amazing Grave with Peter Hollens.
I'm not sure I shared this with you but I try to update all new reviewers/reactors with this lil cheat-sheet i \myself have "borrowed"....
The group started in 2001 by brothers Chris and Adam Rupp They won The Sing Off season 4 2013 that's where they became very popular. They are the only country A Capella ( all vocals no instruments)group but they are honestly do so so much more than just country music they can sing any genre and they do. There is no Lead singer in the group. They each ( except Adam )sing the song and who’s ever voice or voices sound right for the song gets the lead unless is a bass/ baritone song then that’s Tim or Chance. A lot of time they each have a part in the song. Fans of Home Free are known as Home Fries and are very loyal to the guys. Adam Rupp: Beatboxer Extraordinaire ( 41) can make any sound imaginable (A whole drum kit, harmonica (his Nomonica we call it )plane flyovers, trains, castanets, bugs ,birds etc).Co founder from Mankato Minnesota. Rob Lundquist :Lead tenor(beard and glasses) ( 40 )very soulful voice and master whistler from Minneapolis, Minnesota Tim Foust :Bass (had long dark hair now short with grey ) ( 42 ) 5+ octave range can go so low he blows speakers or sky high from Nederland, Texas Austin Brown: High Tenor ( Long wavy hair )( 37 ) voice of an angel from Tifton Georgia. Adam Chance(Aka Chance):Baritone/Bass ( 39 ) deep, rich voice(Does the juice harp sound in Man Of Constant Sorrow) has short dark hair short beard from Baldwin County, Alabama. Replaced Chris Rupp ( Adams Brother and co founder in 2016) They have collaborated with many singers and legends Don McLean: American Pie Oak Ridge Boys: Elvira Kenny Rodgers: Children Go Where I Send Thee (Please watch the end message) Billy Gilman: One Voice Alabama: Christmas In Dixie Mark Wills: Don’t Laugh At Me ( important message at the end ) Lee Greenwood & US Airforce Band: God Bless The USA Any many more. They have 3 amazing songwriters in the group Tim, Austin and Chance So they have a very large playlist of covers and original songs End of the Road (Boyz 2 Men cover ) When A Loves A Woman Helplessly Hoping (5 part harmony masterpiece ) Unchained Melody Butts Medley/ Remix Listen To The Music Can’t Outrun You Brothers In Arms Stargazer Trilogy( All Originals written by Austin) Give Me A Sign ( Chapter 1) Stargazer Lilies( Chapter 2) MR (Chapter 3) Skull And Bones ( original written by Chance for Ubisoft new video game Skull And Bones) Might As Well Be Me ( Original) Playing With Fire ( Original) Remember My Name (Original) Oh Pretty Woman Life Is A Highway Stand By Me Cruise I Want Crazy Christmas In LA ( Newest Release Mayday(DON’T WATCH TILL YOU ARE VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE GROUP AND THEIR RANGES ) There's not a song that you pick from their 200+ catalog that is bad I haven't found one yet. They are just funny, down to earth, humble really nice guys. They are the best A Cappella group there is IMO Sorry for the long read
#HOMEFREE
HF has recorded some songs several times because of things like a change in the group (Chance replacing Chris) or an anniversary (As Seen on tv) so you might consider doing both versions.
A I was in pentatonix
Got it! Thank you!
The Kings of Harmony...no one is better. I can reccomend 4 covers & 3 originals from Home Free.....Cover - I Want Crazy (Hunter Hayes), cover - Colder Weather (Zach Brown Band), Cover Me Up (Jason Isbel) and, Finally Free (Niall Horan cover)...3 originals....So Long Dixie, Catch me if you can & Dive Bar Saints
Awesome thank you for the recommendations!
I see you are on the HomeFree journey. Welcome, you’re about to become a HomeFry! This is a never ending, joyous rabbit hole you’re about to go down. I have a whole HomeFree playlist and honestly their versions of covers are better than the originals in my opinion. Enjoy! 🎼❤️
Another reactor that doesn't run the whole video
