He’s awesome, and I’d love to hear you two singing something together…possibly what you recommended for him to sing/want to hear him sing? That’d be epic…just saying.
Oh Elizabeth, I so hope you see this! I just found a kids choir doing acapella that are as good as Home Free. They even have a beat boxer that is really really good! You have got to do a review on this. It would be awesome to see Home Free do a feat with these kids. They literally have them from ages 6 on up to 18. Incredible talent! Here is a link to one of their songs, with the beat boxer in it ruclips.net/video/zYeuZrqL6kc/видео.html
Its trully so much fun to know little bit more about your life experience... Since i, myself learn from what i hear in songs - i learn just from sound i hear... But you are true treasure of voices... I really like to listnen "Home Free" with you and to try to be great as you guys!....
Thank you so much for doing this interview. So much fun & wonderful way of learning more about you. Def want to get a copy of your cd. Please let us know when it will be available LOVE YOU❤️😊
You know I hate him, great voice, good looks, well spoken, he ruins it for the rest of us morons who muddle through sounding like the morons we are, looking like the plain guys we are, and stumbling over our own words to get a cup of coffee at 7/11. Shessh. Lol
If you haven't checked out the bass gang, bobby (bass) waters, and/or peter barber you will probably enjoy some of their songs. They are young bass singers so I would say not quite as polished yet as the old guard but just as low and some of them have an impressive range as well. My personal favorite is peter and bobby covering Avi's "The Summit" ruclips.net/video/UYjCHhXvZlU/видео.html Some of the guys do depend fairly heavily on sub-harmonics.
i believe chris rupp said in an interview w qofyreacts that he was going to make an ep where he did a song with each of them and then one with all of them or something and then the pandemic happened and the only song that came to fruition of the ones planned was long black train. hopefully he gets that ball rolling again soon because i think it would be an incredible project
Good looking bunch of stallions our Homefree. I always feel good after listening to them.The talent they have is mindblowing. Adam really is the rhythm and beat that glue them together. I love your reactions Jamel so thankyou 💗
Picture this: Tim Foust hosting (and tasting, of course!) a food show; Geoff Castellucci doing the cooking, and some fun duets in the middle!! Can't get the idea off my mind!! 🤣🔥💗 I love your Tea Time interviews! Please check out VoicePlay's "Wicked Medley", Geoff's "Go Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" and Home Free's "Go Tell It On The Mountain"! All fantastic! 🤯💯🔥💖
I still need an interpreter some times when he gets excited. Oh wait, Austin is always excited. Love him. Also love that he is the little brother that big brother Tim has to rein in.
@@Outtahereasap Yes, there are some differences between his speech and singing, but we still hear a lot of hard Rs when he sings. And it's always fun to listen to.
@@ellicooper2323 I'm Asian. English is not my first language. It's interesting for me to listen to the way he speaks and spot the deep south diction. I'm not a big country fan, but I appreciate the twang these guys carry in their songs. Home Free just sounds so good.
Yeah. Good music is contagious. Even if we aren’t familiar with it. I have been exposed to some unique styles and performers over the past couple of years. Really enjoy the variety!
I could listen to Tim talk all day long! He has like the best narration voice. Tim Foust and Elizabeth Zharoff doing Ave Maria would be amazing! I hope that actually happens! Please let that happen?
Late to the party but yeah I agree. Would love to hear that Ave Maria with Tim. Or even having Elizabeth collab on a Home Free song. She'd have to turn off her opera and get her twang on a bit but a few lessons from Austin and she'd be good to go!
I thoroughly enjoyed that - Tim Foust is a natural storyteller and happy to share his life. His answers were rich with information. But that didn't happen on its own; Elizabeth did a wonderful job of leading the conversation and directing the questions in a natural flow. Well done. Side bar; that's one good looking man :)
This must have been one of the best interviews I've seen so far! I'm so glad you actually gave Tim the time to elaborate more. I remember watching an interview with him few months ago on a different channel where the interviewer kept interrupting his stories :/ I really enjoyed this, it made me smile a lot :) Thank you so much for this!
I am a 63 year old woman, and I have absolutely been an ELVIS fan my entire life until TIM FOUST popped into my world!!! I love HOMEFREE, but TIM must be upfront! HE IS UNBELIEVABLE talented with so much CHARISMA. And, he is not bad on the eyes either. He is definitely one good looking man! I have enjoyed your interview, Elizabeth. I will continue to search them out. Both you and TIM are very good speakers and oh so interesting. Thanks for doing this segment!
I had no intention to watch all of this... I mean I love Elizabeth, and I love Home Free... and damn this was fun. Longest interview I've listened to in a long time. Home Free is so right for this time. So thanks Ms. Zharoff. Great interview. Oh, and Elizabeth, you are so like a giggling little school girl... which is great! You are a big fan obviously, as I am of them and you. So, it was great watching you as you asked questions. I finally finished it... wow, that was long and fun.
What a fantastic interview! I’ve liked Tim Foust since I first heard Home Free, and this interview made him seem more amazing. I had no idea of his background prior to Home Free, and he is such a great conversationalist. I’m a bass, too, but I don’t have his ability to talk at length without a script. Nor could I ever sing like he does so naturally. Now I’m 77, and I no longer have the breath to sing.
I was today years old when I realized how badly I need a collaboration between Tim and Elizabeth on "Bach/Gounod - Ave Maria". Not only that but I think the world would be a better place if that union of voices existed in it.
So excited for this! Hope you react to Tim’s original Full of Cheer and my favorite cover of all time, Do You Hear What I Hear arranged by Adam Rupp, and Chris Rupp featuring Home Free: What Child is This! 😁. Speaking of falsetto, Tim’s original song Snow Globe is a favorite love song. 😁
This was a great interview!!! Down to earth guy and just so humble yet so hungry for all the work he has done. Amazing story and information of the acapella world. Another good one for the books ma'am!
I already watched it twice. So glad Tim had two hours to talk about his journey. He shared so much, and all this made me appreciate him more. Thank you Elizabeth for this interview!
That was such a great interview. Love Home Free & especially Tim. Enjoyed listening to his deep voice. I learned a lot of interesting background history that I never knew. Thank you for the great questions & allowing Tim to elaborate without interrupting him.
That was so good! Almost 2 hours of listening to Tim voice, I will be riding the wave all day :o) Thank you Elizabeth and Tim for a great Q&A session!!!!
Wonderful interview! Loved Tim's stories and you giving him the time to elaborate. Yes, it's a long interview, but SO worth the time invested in watching it. Will definitely start following Tim. 💕☕
This was my favorite interview. Tim Foust has a smooth, booming voice just in conversation. His personality is incredibly engaging. Just feels like you're listening to someone you've known for years. Great stuff.
EZ - I so thoroughly enjoyed your "Chat" with Tim - His life/musical background just made me admire him all the more... just to be connected with a guy like Peter Hollens tells you a lot about his life's experience and character. He's such a humble person and yet his talent and just plain ol' good nature make him a very special person to all who know him and work with him. I just saw them (Home Free) in concert this past Friday in Atlanta with Texas Hill and they literally rocked the joint!!! It's one thing to appreciate their talent in the recording booth especially with a producer/engineer like Darren Rust, but the "Live" performances make it even better - I don't look for vocal perfection as much as vocal energy - Touring will test your vocal cords to the max so you have to rely on performance to "help" you out when the voice is strained from all the touring - 250+ concerts a year can take a toll on the 'ol voice box... They just dropped their version of "Mary did you know?" and it is the best arrangement I have ever heard and is simply astounding...Just wait and see... I appreciate what you do and am excited for you and hubby - Myself, as a father of 5 and GF of 15 (geesh!!!) I'm blessed beyond words... Thank you for who you are and for what you do that allows us to see music in a very special way!! Have a Merry Christmas! RichieC (Atlanta) ps - I like tea as well... 😉
This was a great interview by someone who understands and genuinely supports all types of good music. I love how you were so wonderfully patient and allowed a really in depth conversation. Cheers to you and of course to Tim great interview. Thank you
Elizabeth, one of the things I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE about you is how much you enjoy and adore wonderful things, as if you're not this incredibly accomplished voice and coach. I LOVE people who never lose the quality of being a fan of awesome things! I enjoy your enjoyment alongside what you are enjoying in your videos. Keep being your adorable self!
What a great interview! You're a really good interviewer, very relaxed. Learned some things I didn't know about Tim's career. I didn't know the details of his writing gig in California. I also loved hearing more about Darren Rust. I have massive respect for that guy. He's a huge part of the magic of Home Free.
I accidentally stumbled onto your reaction video of Man of Constant Sorrow (Home Free). Believe it or not, I was watching adventure motorcycle videos. I have always been a sucker for great harmony, and I heard all those great Home Free vocals and I was hooked. Your analysis was so interesting, almost scientific (l'm a Lead Test Engineer just finishing 2 new nuclear power plants). I want to thank you for introducing me to Home Free, I've been devouring their music these past few days. Their cover of Helplessly Hoping (CSN) literally brought tears to my eyes as I felt my soul swelling with joy at the pure clear harmony. Thank you for the introduction. Typically I'm a Blackberry Smoke Fan, southern rock or guitar shredders (Clapton, Jonny Lang, Kenny Wayne Shepard, Bonamassa, Tedeschi Trucks). I'm now subscribed to see what new music I get exposed to. I appreciate what you do, exposing new / different artists to new audiences. I listen to your thoughts and hear things that I heard in the song, but was too immersed in the totality of the song to truly appreciate the nuanced subtlety of. Again, thank you.
Your teatime interviews are just from another world, I really really enjoy those. Thanx for the effort to get the time of those musicians and them to really chat with you.
Again I have watched a whole long interview on this channel, and the time flies! Elizabeth is a well informed and attentive interviewer, and it's fascinating to hear the details of Tim's career trajectory. Fun! Keep doing these interviews, please!
Love that he shouted out acapella gospel and Southern Gospel. He's absolutely right, there are some stellar voices in both those arenas and they're definitely undiscovered treasures.
I got to this point and paused the interview. I was like, Wait - he knows that group? He grew up with acapella gospel? I went to Google and checked, and sure enough, he was raised in the Church of Christ, a niche sect of evangelical Christianity which has a strong emphasis on not using instruments in worship. This makes SO much sense and it is really cool that we have a similar musical background. (I credit my COC upbringing for my deep love of vocal harmony and acapella music in general) Now I want to hear Home Free cover 728B (iykyk)
@@sarahereach there's no acapella like CoC acapella. I used to attend a singing every year where we would close with the Hallelujah Chorus and Awake Awake.
Yup, the Singing has always been my favorite part of worship and the thing that remains close to my heart even as my feelings on other parts of our doctrine have gotten more complicated. I was part of singing workshops and camps growing up that taught me the basic fundamentals of solfege and sight singing that helped me when I joined choir in High School. (I still need shape notes to sight read well 😅) Tims earlier story about being able to pitch match before he could talk is also super relatable given the context of Church singing. My Mom also sang constantly to me and by the time I started talking, I knew the words to every song in that old blue songbook.
I finally got to watch this. It was wonderful. Great questions and loved listen to Tim's long answers. Very good story telling skills. I'm looking forward to Tim's new album. I just know it's going to be fantastic!
I saw Home Free on that first Christmas tour in Dickinson ND, you were great! And you made a comment about getting your van stuck during the show. Also saw you on the Allied Concert tour earlier in the year. So happy that you are still producing music as a group years later, really enjoy your work.
Oh excellent. Elizabeth's doing great with the interviews. We need PTX, Home Free, Voice Play, and Voctave to do a Game of Thrones medley/concert. :) It would be really cool to Tim, Geoff, and another base like Avi or Matt doing chords down low.
I got to see Home Free live for the 1st time in October & saw them again last week. When Tim hits the low note & you can feel your seat vibrate or feel the floor vibrate, that is so amazing!! RE the content released during the quarantine - I have to send a big THANK YOU to all the members of Home Free & their tech crew. Knowing that a new video was going to drop every other Friday almost like clockwork was wonderful. It gave me something to look forward to at a time when there wasn't much else to look forward to.
Can I just say, after seeing this interview again, Tim is just hilarious, and engaging, and quite seriously gorgeous and damn... I'm trying to being calm and collected but ...... seriously his voice sends a shiver that ends up in place we probably should not discuss. Lord have mercy.
Another great vlog. Love Tim Foust, solo, duos, and with Home Free!! I was born In Lubbock. While it is in Texas, it does get more cold weather than the rest of Texas.
I'm a Tennessee Southern Boy of 70 years and love to be the cook in the family (so does my wife althought she's a better cook than me). I'm with you Tim on the cornbread dressing. Never was a fan of 'stuffing', but I learned cornbread dressing from my mother and she from her mother. It's also probably one of my favorite things in the world to eat. My greatest luck is that before my bother passed away, she put all of her favorite recipes in a 3 ring binder for my wife and it's one of our greatest possesions. Love both of you.
What a absolutely wonderful interview!! Learned so much about Home Free and Tim. You did a wonderful job interviewing, totally enjoyed this. Thank you 💖😊
Wow...his voice just resonates with you doesn't it? He could read anythign and make it sound profound. Great interview. He's so cool about explaining what he does. (And still I will say every time...HOW..does he do THAT??) He makes i thard to pull away even just to pause it for a few minutes. Never get tired of that voice.
Concerning your interview with Tim Foust. I grew up on the Texas coast, too, and when he made the comment about being 20 yrs old when he first saw snow it reminded me of a poem I wrote a couple of years ago.
First Snow
First Snow came to me In my twenty-first year. East Texas heat had held it at bay. In Nashville, In a rented room, I saw First Snow. Frosty feathers falling Softly, silencing sound. A world of quiet magic Seeming to wait… Calling to me to walk To feel cold caresses To venture out In the wonder of First Snow. I enjoy watching how much you enjoy your program. I was a musician and performer for 20 yrs.
Very cool. My two favorite bands are Home Free and Nightwish, which seems kind of strange because they are at opposite ends of the Musical spectrum. So I was leaning towards you interviewing Floor, but here comes Tim. I'm in. haha. Nicely done Elizabeth. I'll be waiting patiently. haha. Naw....Impatiently for sure. Yep, that was worth the wait. Thank you Elizabeth.
My favorite has been Nightwish since I first heard them in 2004, and I jumped on the Home Free bandwagon back in 2012, about 6 months before they hit the Sing Off. So any interview with Floor or Tim is always great to tickle the eardrums with 😁
I just listened to this again. I enjoyed it just as much this time. Tim is such an interesting person and I appreciate him so much sharing so much with us!
I can't believe I just watched almost a 2 hour interview. I am used to 15 - 30 min. videos. But, this was so interesting and I really enjoyed hearing about Tim's journey to Home Free and this stardom Home Free has attained. This group has guys that are all talented, endearing, sincere, caring and most of all, a lot fun. Thank you so much, Elizabeth for bringing Tim on your channel. I have loved bass singers since I first heard JD Sumner & The Stamp Quartet (with Richard Sterban of the Oakridge Boys) at a Hymn Sing in Hershey, PA in the early 1970's. When I first heard Home Free on the Sing Off; I was hooked and have been ever since.
I guess you could say Kirk struck a Foustian bargain to get Tim on the channel. Also, if Tim is the bass for Home Free, would that make him Home Bass? Anyway, Tim is an ultra-talented and prolific artist and a super funny dude so this interview should be delightful.
@@markmclendon8621 I grew up on a farm, so I'm all about the corn. Honestly, whenever I do comments, sometimes I have a point that I try to make, but usually I'm just trying to get a chuckle out of people.
Wow wow wow! I have loved both of you (Tim and Elizabeth) for as long as I have discovered you. You are wonderful. To see you both in (almost) real time....sweet. Love you both and Home Free! Heaven! Elizabeth - congratulations. You will be a supermom!
I'm still in contact with my grade school music teacher, John Jensen. I left grade school in 1969, so that's a long time ago. I never went forward with my music studies but Mr. Jensen cemented my love of all music. That love of music is what keeps me alive. Thanks for sharing this post!!
Wonderful interview. My favorite of the ones I have heard. Even though I have tried to catch most things HF/Tim/Austin related there were still some things I hadn't heard before. I do VERY much appreciate your allowing Tim to completely answer a question and listening enough to the answer to make the next question pertinent. I know Elizabeth has struggled to continue to do reactions of the acapella songs because of their relatively short length compared to metal, etc with instrumental sections to lengthen them. Some reactors have dealt with this by doing double, somewhat related, song reactions or doing the song multiple times with different focus for each time through. I would strongly suggest "Brother's in Arms" (HF) and "My Maria" (Tim, Austin & friends) as ones that I believe you would enjoy and would have interesting elements to highlight. They even give an opportunity to show complete contrasts of Tim's voice.
Was able to catch Home Free in Milwaukee in October. INSANELY amazing show. You guys are such great entertainers individually and together. Thank you Elizabeth for doing this interview with Mr Foust.
I've learned so much by listening to this entire podcast!! I'm glad I took the time to get to know Tim better. In all honesty, he's just a real down to earth guy that I admire. Thanks so much!!! ❤❤❤
Elizabeth, you are so sweet, happy and gitty talking with Tim. I love the joy you have for music and talented people. I am amazed at Tim’s vocal range and it is wonderful to see the person behind that voice. What a treat!❤️❤️❤️❤️
It's really amazing to see her interview someone she's reacted to. Especially a music giant like Mr. Foust. When I saw the thumbnail of this video my jaw hit the floor. You've gotta love the ladies reaction when they first experience ... "Yoooooou'll remember meeeee"
We just released merchandise! Check out the full line-up here: thecharismaticmerch.com
Tim’s song that he wrote is “Full of Cheer”. Home Free did it and it's funny. You should listen to it when you get a chance
He’s awesome, and I’d love to hear you two singing something together…possibly what you recommended for him to sing/want to hear him sing? That’d be epic…just saying.
wen Tim and Elizabeth classical accapella collab? 2022, right? Right? I mean, he's the one that brought it up. You know you gotta do it!
Oh Elizabeth, I so hope you see this! I just found a kids choir doing acapella that are as good as Home Free. They even have a beat boxer that is really really good! You have got to do a review on this. It would be awesome to see Home Free do a feat with these kids. They literally have them from ages 6 on up to 18. Incredible talent! Here is a link to one of their songs, with the beat boxer in it ruclips.net/video/zYeuZrqL6kc/видео.html
I have to know what larper group that sword is from?
Thanks so much for having me!
Such a fun interview!
Thank you for being such a great person, singer and motivation for low notes.
Its trully so much
Its trully so much fun to know little bit more about your life experience... Since i, myself learn from what i hear in songs - i learn just from sound i hear... But you are true treasure of voices... I really like to listnen "Home Free" with you and to try to be great as you guys!....
The fact that you mooned your entire cast just raises the level of respect I have for you.
Thank you so much for doing this interview. So much fun & wonderful way of learning more about you. Def want to get a copy of your cd. Please let us know when it will be available LOVE YOU❤️😊
Even when he is TALKING he sounds like...pure vocal power.
because he is a true bassist.
@@qniln404 no hes not, trust me
i got the same bassy deep vocal "power". am loud, but never mean to be. it's okay. until it needs to be.
@@nodoubt46able ok, let´s all trust "hogg", guys.
@@nodoubt46able clarify
OMG his speaking voice is as awesome as his singing voice
Tim has a great voice.
I could listen to Tim
and Sam Elliott all day.
You know I hate him, great voice, good looks, well spoken, he ruins it for the rest of us morons who muddle through sounding like the morons we are, looking like the plain guys we are, and stumbling over our own words to get a cup of coffee at 7/11. Shessh. Lol
If Tim, Geoff and Avi ever sang together...well I can't even imagine how great it would be. That would be like my biggest dream come true.
Make sure it's in a seismically inactive region or there could be consequences.
@@ljfinger Or it would become seismically active which might be more awkward... Maybe need to do it on the moon or something.
If you haven't checked out the bass gang, bobby (bass) waters, and/or peter barber you will probably enjoy some of their songs. They are young bass singers so I would say not quite as polished yet as the old guard but just as low and some of them have an impressive range as well. My personal favorite is peter and bobby covering Avi's "The Summit" ruclips.net/video/UYjCHhXvZlU/видео.html Some of the guys do depend fairly heavily on sub-harmonics.
If those 3 got together it would scare me. They might trigger an earthquake with their voices. Besides that….it would be awesome.
i believe chris rupp said in an interview w qofyreacts that he was going to make an ep where he did a song with each of them and then one with all of them or something and then the pandemic happened and the only song that came to fruition of the ones planned was long black train. hopefully he gets that ball rolling again soon because i think it would be an incredible project
He is so down to earth! Humble and gracious. Always enjoyed him/his voice/music before this interview, now I'm a total fan!
Dude has one of those voices that just cuts through everything. As a teacher, I’m totally jealous!
Good looking bunch of stallions our Homefree. I always feel good after listening to them.The talent they have is mindblowing. Adam really is the rhythm and beat that glue them together. I love your reactions Jamel so thankyou 💗

two of my favorite of all time singers, but you need Avi as a guest cook.
👍
@@ellicooper2323 Avi is the one who tastes the food.
I cracked up when Tim said for months he had to translate what Austin said to the other members because they had problems understanding him. lol
Austin’s diction and Southern inflection is so different than his singing voice.
I still need an interpreter some times when he gets excited. Oh wait, Austin is always excited. Love him. Also love that he is the little brother that big brother Tim has to rein in.

Hello Lynn..
The worst thing about this interview is that it had to end at some point. I could listen to a 10 hour special of this and not get bored.
This must have been one of the best interviews I've seen so far! I'm so glad you actually gave Tim the time to elaborate more. I remember watching an interview with him few months ago on a different channel where the interviewer kept interrupting his stories :/
I really enjoyed this, it made me smile a lot :) Thank you so much for this!

Do You Hear What I hear is so amazing! Even by Home Free's lofty standards. Would love to see E react to that.
Do You Hear What I Hear is one of my favourites

What a genuine guy! That was very cool to listen to. I love these interviews, you get to know them at a different level.
I loved this, but it is too short!! More Tim, please.
Edite to clarify: if this had been 4 hours long, I'd make the same comment 😁
Elizabeth, one of the things I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE about you is how much you enjoy and adore wonderful things, as if you're not this incredibly accomplished voice and coach. I LOVE people who never lose the quality of being a fan of awesome things!
I enjoy your enjoyment alongside what you are enjoying in your videos.
Keep being your adorable self!
What a great interview! You're a really good interviewer, very relaxed. Learned some things I didn't know about Tim's career. I didn't know the details of his writing gig in California. I also loved hearing more about Darren Rust. I have massive respect for that guy. He's a huge part of the magic of Home Free.
I accidentally stumbled onto your reaction video of Man of Constant Sorrow (Home Free).
Believe it or not, I was watching adventure motorcycle videos.
I have always been a sucker for great harmony, and I heard all those great Home Free vocals and I was hooked.
Your analysis was so interesting, almost scientific (l'm a Lead Test Engineer just finishing 2 new nuclear power plants).
I want to thank you for introducing me to Home Free, I've been devouring their music these past few days.
Their cover of Helplessly Hoping (CSN) literally brought tears to my eyes as I felt my soul swelling with joy at the pure clear harmony.
Thank you for the introduction.
Typically I'm a Blackberry Smoke Fan, southern rock or guitar shredders (Clapton, Jonny Lang, Kenny Wayne Shepard, Bonamassa, Tedeschi Trucks).
I'm now subscribed to see what new music I get exposed to.
I appreciate what you do, exposing new / different artists to new audiences.
I listen to your thoughts and hear things that I heard in the song, but was too immersed in the totality of the song to truly appreciate the nuanced subtlety of.
Again, thank you.
Tim is the reason I started singing. Love this interview
Tim has the most attractive speaking voice that ive ever heard.
Your teatime interviews are just from another world, I really really enjoy those. Thanx for the effort to get the time of those musicians and them to really chat with you.
Again I have watched a whole long interview on this channel, and the time flies! Elizabeth is a well informed and attentive interviewer, and it's fascinating to hear the details of Tim's career trajectory. Fun! Keep doing these interviews, please!
Love that he shouted out acapella gospel and Southern Gospel. He's absolutely right, there are some stellar voices in both those arenas and they're definitely undiscovered treasures.
I got to this point and paused the interview. I was like, Wait - he knows that group? He grew up with acapella gospel? I went to Google and checked, and sure enough, he was raised in the Church of Christ, a niche sect of evangelical Christianity which has a strong emphasis on not using instruments in worship. This makes SO much sense and it is really cool that we have a similar musical background. (I credit my COC upbringing for my deep love of vocal harmony and acapella music in general) Now I want to hear Home Free cover 728B (iykyk)
@@sarahereach there's no acapella like CoC acapella. I used to attend a singing every year where we would close with the Hallelujah Chorus and Awake Awake.
Yup, the Singing has always been my favorite part of worship and the thing that remains close to my heart even as my feelings on other parts of our doctrine have gotten more complicated. I was part of singing workshops and camps growing up that taught me the basic fundamentals of solfege and sight singing that helped me when I joined choir in High School. (I still need shape notes to sight read well 😅) Tims earlier story about being able to pitch match before he could talk is also super relatable given the context of Church singing. My Mom also sang constantly to me and by the time I started talking, I knew the words to every song in that old blue songbook.
I think that Tim has the most wonderful smile. Just love it.
Can’t stop looking at that dazzling smile.
This will be a fun interview, can't wait to watch.
Ok, Tim's bass is awesome, no question about it, but Miss Elizabeth is just Wow! Wow! Wow! ... Two absolutely brilliant hours!
Both thumps up! Danke!
Elizabeth's soft, understated voice, Tim's big booming bass, complete opposites! So cute.
I finally got to watch this. It was wonderful. Great questions and loved listen to Tim's long answers. Very good story telling skills.
I'm looking forward to Tim's new album. I just know it's going to be fantastic!
This was amazing. You do such a great job with these Elizabeth!!! I’m a huge fan of you both ❤️
Not gonna lie. Never heard of Home Free but after checking them out I am pretty impressed and definitely a new fan.
I saw Home Free on that first Christmas tour in Dickinson ND, you were great! And you made a comment about getting your van stuck during the show. Also saw you on the Allied Concert tour earlier in the year. So happy that you are still producing music as a group years later, really enjoy your work.
Great catch! Tim is one of my favorite singers! This interview was incredible and made my whole year!
Oh excellent. Elizabeth's doing great with the interviews. We need PTX, Home Free, Voice Play, and Voctave to do a Game of Thrones medley/concert. :) It would be really cool to Tim, Geoff, and another base like Avi or Matt doing chords down low.
bass, not base
So psyched for Ave Maria featuring Tim Foust and Elizabeth Zharoff, holy cow
Hello Amy..
Probably my favorite interview you’ve done to date!! This was so much fun!
I got to see Home Free live for the 1st time in October & saw them again last week. When Tim hits the low note & you can feel your seat vibrate or feel the floor vibrate, that is so amazing!! RE the content released during the quarantine - I have to send a big THANK YOU to all the members of Home Free & their tech crew. Knowing that a new video was going to drop every other Friday almost like clockwork was wonderful. It gave me something to look forward to at a time when there wasn't much else to look forward to.
Hello Ann..
Can I just say, after seeing this interview again, Tim is just hilarious, and engaging, and quite seriously gorgeous and damn... I'm trying to being calm and collected but ...... seriously his voice sends a shiver that ends up in place we probably should not discuss. Lord have mercy.
Loved the Interview 😀😊
Thank you so much for this Interview 😊🔥😀
I was planning to see Home Free in Ottawa but was thwarted by the pandemic. I can do late spring! Woohoo! This totally made my day!
Holy Wow! Is speaking voice is lovely and deliciously warm.
Yes, Tim's voice reminds me of Eddie Vedder's speaking voice. Soothing and deep. Although, Tim's range is much greater than Ed's.
Another great vlog. Love Tim Foust, solo, duos, and with Home Free!! I was born In Lubbock. While it is in Texas, it does get more cold weather than the rest of Texas.
Had to watch it again! Thank you!
What a lovely interview and such a great chemistry they have. 😊
I'm a Tennessee Southern Boy of 70 years and love to be the cook in the family (so does my wife althought she's a better cook than me). I'm with you Tim on the cornbread dressing. Never was a fan of 'stuffing', but I learned cornbread dressing from my mother and she from her mother. It's also probably one of my favorite things in the world to eat. My greatest luck is that before my bother passed away, she put all of her favorite recipes in a 3 ring binder for my wife and it's one of our greatest possesions. Love both of you.
An absolutely amazing interview. Well done Elizabeth!
i could listen to Tim just talk about anything for hours... oh wait!
What a absolutely wonderful interview!! Learned so much about Home Free and Tim. You did a wonderful job interviewing, totally enjoyed this. Thank you 💖😊
I’ll have to warn the neighbours. Bass and smiles travel a long way. Happy start of the weekend.
Such a fantastic interview!!! Thank you both for this treat!!!
Wow...his voice just resonates with you doesn't it? He could read anythign and make it sound profound. Great interview. He's so cool about explaining what he does. (And still I will say every time...HOW..does he do THAT??) He makes i thard to pull away even just to pause it for a few minutes. Never get tired of that voice.
What a pleasant discovery! I was born in San Antonio but spent the majority of my first decade of my life in Nederland Texas!
Concerning your interview with Tim Foust. I grew up on the Texas coast, too, and when he made the comment about being 20 yrs old when he first saw snow it reminded me of a poem I wrote a couple of years ago.
First Snow
First Snow came to me
In my twenty-first year.
East Texas heat had held it at bay.
In Nashville,
In a rented room,
I saw First Snow.
Frosty feathers falling
Softly, silencing sound.
A world of quiet magic
Seeming to wait…
Calling to me to walk
To feel cold caresses
To venture out
In the wonder of
First Snow.
I enjoy watching how much you enjoy your program. I was a musician and performer for 20 yrs.
Just WOW!!!!!! Thoroughly enjoyed this interview. You both were absolutely great. Thank you so very much.
Great interview❣️ loved spending time with Both of you. Learned so much.
Love Peter also. cappella is my absolute favorite 😍
Very cool. My two favorite bands are Home Free and Nightwish, which seems kind of strange because they are at opposite ends of the Musical spectrum.
So I was leaning towards you interviewing Floor, but here comes Tim. I'm in. haha.
Nicely done Elizabeth. I'll be waiting patiently. haha. Naw....Impatiently for sure.
Yep, that was worth the wait. Thank you Elizabeth.
Gary, my two farovite bands are also Nightwish and Home Free, in my case my two loved bands in the world.
My favorite has been Nightwish since I first heard them in 2004, and I jumped on the Home Free bandwagon back in 2012, about 6 months before they hit the Sing Off. So any interview with Floor or Tim is always great to tickle the eardrums with 😁
I just listened to this again. I enjoyed it just as much this time. Tim is such an interesting person and I appreciate him so much sharing so much with us!
I can't believe I just watched almost a 2 hour interview. I am used to 15 - 30 min. videos. But, this was so interesting and I really enjoyed hearing about Tim's journey to Home Free and this stardom Home Free has attained. This group has guys that are all talented, endearing, sincere, caring and most of all, a lot fun. Thank you so much, Elizabeth for bringing Tim on your channel. I have loved bass singers since I first heard JD Sumner & The Stamp Quartet (with Richard Sterban of the Oakridge Boys) at a Hymn Sing in Hershey, PA in the early 1970's. When I first heard Home Free on the Sing Off; I was hooked and have been ever since.
I guess you could say Kirk struck a Foustian bargain to get Tim on the channel. Also, if Tim is the bass for Home Free, would that make him Home Bass? Anyway, Tim is an ultra-talented and prolific artist and a super funny dude so this interview should be delightful.
Haha 😄 good one 'home bass'
speak corny much ?
@@markmclendon8621 It's my native tongue. I'm trying to learn how to speak normal. Give me time.
@@oglschmitt corn is not necessarily a bad thing
@@markmclendon8621 I grew up on a farm, so I'm all about the corn. Honestly, whenever I do comments, sometimes I have a point that I try to make, but usually I'm just trying to get a chuckle out of people.
Great interview Elizabeth and thank you for having it.
Can’t wait for this tomorrow a double feature have a wonderful Thursday Elizabeth and Kirk!
Loved this interview, i learned a lot about Tim's musical journey. Thank you so much!
Hello Aj..
He can just talk about what ever he wants - I wanna listen
Wow wow wow! I have loved both of you (Tim and Elizabeth) for as long as I have discovered you. You are wonderful.
To see you both in (almost) real time....sweet. Love you both and Home Free! Heaven!
Elizabeth - congratulations. You will be a supermom!
I'm still in contact with my grade school music teacher, John Jensen. I left grade school in 1969, so that's a long time ago. I never went forward with my music studies but Mr. Jensen cemented my love of all music. That love of music is what keeps me alive. Thanks for sharing this post!!
His voice is making my headphones vibrate !!!
Well thank you for setting up the talk and I love it Elizabeth it is really really cool
Wonderful interview. My favorite of the ones I have heard. Even though I have tried to catch most things HF/Tim/Austin related there were still some things I hadn't heard before. I do VERY much appreciate your allowing Tim to completely answer a question and listening enough to the answer to make the next question pertinent.
I know Elizabeth has struggled to continue to do reactions of the acapella songs because of their relatively short length compared to metal, etc with instrumental sections to lengthen them. Some reactors have dealt with this by doing double, somewhat related, song reactions or doing the song multiple times with different focus for each time through.
I would strongly suggest "Brother's in Arms" (HF) and "My Maria" (Tim, Austin & friends) as ones that I believe you would enjoy and would have interesting elements to highlight. They even give an opportunity to show complete contrasts of Tim's voice.
Oooh hearing Elizabeth perform Ave Maria!? That would be phenomenal.
Was able to catch Home Free in Milwaukee in October. INSANELY amazing show. You guys are such great entertainers individually and together. Thank you Elizabeth for doing this interview with Mr Foust.
Esto es lo mejor!!! Estoy tan emocionada por verlo me encanta Tim ❤
With tears... Thank you from those of us who love Tim, who love Home Free... and, those of us who LOVE YOU.
Absolutely fascinating interview. What an interesting guy!
I've learned so much by listening to this entire podcast!! I'm glad I took the time to get to know Tim better. In all honesty, he's just a real down to earth guy that I admire. Thanks so much!!! ❤❤❤
That voice is smooth as silk!! Love to hear this man sing solo or with the Home Free group.
What a great interview, Elizabeth! I learned a few things I didn’t know about Tim, Home Free, and other things!
Elizabeth, you are so sweet, happy and gitty talking with Tim. I love the joy you have for music and talented people. I am amazed at Tim’s vocal range and it is wonderful to see the person behind that voice. What a treat!❤️❤️❤️❤️
It's really amazing to see her interview someone she's reacted to. Especially a music giant like Mr. Foust. When I saw the thumbnail of this video my jaw hit the floor. You've gotta love the ladies reaction when they first experience ... "Yoooooou'll remember meeeee"
this is amazing! I did not know a lot of the things that he talked about here. also love that Tim is casually repping rob's podcast.
OMG !!!!! Did I just understood that a collab between Elizabeth and Tim would be possible ?!?!? That is soooo exciting !
This has been all the things I would have loved to have asked Tim. One of the best interviews I've ever seen.
