Left to right, the members of the group are: Rob Lundquist (big beard, main tenor and great whistler), Adam Chance (baritone/bass, making the mouth-harp noise at beginning and end of the video), Austin Brown (center, high tenor--I mean HIGH tenor), Adam Rupp (co-founder of the group, tenor, beat-boxer--considered one of the best beat-boxers in the world), and Tim Foust (bass-to-nearly tenor, five octave range!).
The next Home Free song should be their cover of End of the Road by Boyz II Men done at the urging of Shawn Stockman of BTM who was a judge on the competition show they appeared on. Remember no instruments when you listen to that one. They can do any genre.
Many people think this song is from the movie Oh Brother, Where Art Thou, but it is much older than that. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Man of Constant Sorrow" (also known as "I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow") is a traditional American folk song first published by Dick Burnett, a partially blind fiddler from Kentucky. The song was originally titled "Farewell Song" in a songbook by Burnett dated to around 1913. A version recorded by Emry Arthur in 1928 gave the song its current titles. Enjoyed the reaction.
Thank you! It was first "published" in 1913, but it's believed to be much older than that. I saw an interview years ago about a family in which the song had been passed down through many generations.
Welcome to the Rabbit Hole my friend! Where HomeFree gets air time, we show up! HomeFries are many and loyal! Tim wasn't sweating, it was raining on and off as they shot the video and Adam's No-monica is just one of his extensive talents!
Home Free is incredible. Everything they do is great. And although they are a Country A-cappela group, they can really sing all genres. They really all have great voices with their own specialties. Even Adam Rupp who started the group with his brother Chris Rupp. Chris left the group in 2016 to go solo but also to start other projects with his sister, among others. Adam Rupp-Beatboxer but is actually an inhuman freaking good mouth artist. Tim Foust- Deep bass but also as a tenor and everything in between is possible. Austin Brown-High tenor with his great runs and high notes. Rob Lundquist (beard and glasses)-Tenor, with a voice like velvet and so much soul. Adam Chance (back left, who is called Chance) - Baritone/ Bass, a voice so smooth and sexy. And who here also makes the Jaw harp sound. There is no permanent lead singer in Home Free. They look at every song whose voice suits it best, the best harmony, no egos, no rivalries, great personalities etc. Besides, they can all beatbox (see their live performance 9to5). .. This is one of the many covers they do in addition to various originals, and each one is just amazing. Take the time to discover Home Free because it will be a great tour. For me they are number 1 A-Cappella groupI
Might want to check out their cover of 'End of the Road'. And actually, that is Adam Rupp doing the 'nomonica' and beat boxing. Have fun in this rabbit hole.
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole. I hope you take this journey with this amazing vocal band. Home Free leans country, but can, and do, many genres from R and B to classic rock, to doo-wop to gospel and even opera. These men are humble, down to earth men with a wonderful sense of humor who love making music together and love their fans (called Home Fries). The man up front with the beard and hat is Austin Brown and is high tenor. The man in the glasses is Rob Lundquist and is tenor and has an amazing opera voice when he chooses. The deep bass singer is Tim Foust, who has a 5 octave range, the man with the suspenders and doing what we Fries call his no-monica, is Adam Rupp, the co-founder and the amazing beat boxer. The other man in the back with the hat is Adam Chance (goes by Chance), is baritone/bass and does the sound of the jaw harp in this song. They have many covers and many originals as well. I will let the other Home Fries give recomendations. Great reaction and I have subbed! Thank you!
Just subscribed with hopes for more Home Free reactions. They are the best! They do a huge variety of music and each have a very impressive vocal range. Their beatboxer, the bass and those harmonies cant be beat! The have great personalities and can make you dance, cry or fall out of your seat laughing. Thanks for the Home Free reaction. Looking forward to more.
Home Free fans (Home Fries 🍟) will support your channel. We are very appreciative of people spreading the word on our guys. Go down the rabbit hole and you'll see they are much more than just country 😊
You need to check out their cover of End of the Road. No harmoniac is him , his voice they call it the nominica. This song was written in the 30s. It was used in the movie OH Brother Where art thou.
You are gonna get a lot of love for this one! Us fans LOVE when we stumble upon new reactions to their music and I'm sure you've already been told about all ya need to know by now but I do recommend you check out their cover of End of The Road :)
Yes, one of the amazing thing about #homefree is that each band member is incredibly talented and brings something different to the group, while they harmonize majestically and have great group chemistry. It's an uncanny combination. All their music is food for the soul. Check out their cover of Folsom Prison Blues. BTW, they're just as good live.
New sub because of Home Free. Welcome to the "rabbit hole" known as Home Free. Hold on & enjoy the ride. Keep reacting to HF & us " home fries" will swarm.
You have just been introduced to the best a cappella group out there. 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 singers out there with a 5 octave range & their beatboxer vocal percussionist Adam Rupp can simulate any sound. Drummers have often commented on how realistic his drum sounds are. 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. Some of my favorites are "Take Me Home Country Roads", "In The Blood", "Ring Of Fire", "Blue Ain't Your Color", "How Great Thou Art", "Elvira", "Hillbilly Bone", "American Pie", "Brother In Arms", "One Man Band", "Listen To The Music", "Sea Shanty Medley" etc.
All music is created by mouth or body percussion. All the singers can beatbox to some extent, but the main beatboxer in Adam Rupp, the dude who was creating the harmonica sound without a harmonica. He can recreate the sound of drums so well that actual drum players are astounded at his realism.
I went to a Home Free concert in 2022 and it was a lot of fun to see them and hear them sing and talk about their music. They do use loops (Rupp demonstrated it), claps and stomps when helpful but they are all a Capella. So with the loops, Rupp is able to beatbox the rhythm and also make the harmonica sound. In a few videos they may use an instrument but if so, you will see it. 🥰
Generally speaking, Home Free does a capella; but they do have some instruments on a few songs--"Skull and Bones" for example. That is an original song written by Adam Chance (the baritone for Home Free and he sings lead on that song). Chance wrote and they recorded the song for a new video game and the video with scenes from the game is incredible.
Home Free are the absolute best at what they do. Adam Rupp is the beatboxer other beatboxers aspire to be. His "no-monica" is unmatched. You should react to How Great Thou Art and their cover of Boyz2Men End of the road. New subscriber hoping for more Home Free songs. ❤
This song is about 100 years old and it was also in the Movie " Brother where art thou" You have to listen to their Boy to men cover of End of the road. It will blow you away.
ok now that you've started going down that rabbit hole. I know you'll love their version of Boys to Men's End of The Road and their mash up of Thinking Out Loud and Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On. Both great.
I am 43 years old.. and one of the BIGGEST things I learned in life.. and it's 100% true... NEVER judge a book by it's cover!! Great life lesson if you trust in that!
Yoooo!! The face expressions and the “WHY HE SWEATING” & “DREW MCINTYRE” lines had me rolling 😂😂 you keep improving with every video. Keep grinding, bro 🙏🏾
Yes, welcome to Home Free, all acapella, no instruments at all. Masters of all musical genres. They won the 4th season of the Sing Off in 2013. Their covers are upgrades, their medleys are brilliant, their collaborations with the original artists are inspirational, and their original songs are masterpieces. Within this 5 man vocal band you have 5 tenors, 5 beat boxers, and 2 bass-baritones. All of them can sing lead and they choose depending on whose voice best fits the song. The group consists of Adam Rupp (beat boxer), Rob Lundquist (Tenor), Chris Rupp (Baritone, he left the group in 2016), these three are from Minnesota, Adam Chance (Baritone/Bass Who replaced Chris in 2016) from Alabama, Tim Foust (Bass - with a 5 octave range, G0-A5) from Texas, and Austin Brown (High Tenor) from Georgia. They can do just about anything and they continue to grow and improve, yet they remain so humble. When they have featured guest artist, they support and allow their featured artists to shine. Several of them have their own channels and do some solo work. And just for fun Rob and Austin sing Opera. What else can I say? Their catalogue of work is quite large and continues to grow. You are in for an exciting journey and the Home Fries will be there for you all the way.
Got a lot of favorites that homefree have sung, like Elvira feat. The oak ridge boys, champagne taste on a beer budget, their cover of all about that base, their medleys and remixs like the butts remix, so many good ones...I'm a certified home fry
If you react to Home Free, the Home Fries will come to your channel! I agree with suggestions to do “End of the Road” next- Rob(heavy beard and glasses) has the main lead , and he presents us with Gospel Rob. Rob can be Angelic, R&B, Gospel, Pop, and Rap. The next may be “Butts Medley “ which is vocally great, but also shows you their humor. And if you really want to hear Rob cut loose, look up the RUclips video of Home Free at the Hosanna concert 2013 performing their rendition of the Christmas carol “Joy To the World “. It’s a jazzy, funky arrangement, and Rob really digs deep. There’s even a beatbox breakdown.
Glad you liked them. My favorite group. They do covers, original music, opera, about any genre. I think you would love their Boyz to Men cover of End of the Road. For a little 60’s/70’s try Love Train an OJays cover. Their videos are top notch. They can be serious (How Great Thou Art is fantastic), they can be funny (Butts Medley, which is not about women’s butts!). Beautiful harmony in Helplessly Hoping. And songs that have a message like Don’t Laugh at Me, Everybody Walking This Land, In the Blood. They won The Sing Off back in 2013, I think and you can view all of their performances (I would suggest videos that include the judges comments as they are priceless). Yep, you have just fallen into one of the best rabbit holes ever. All nice guys, love their fans, creative, sooo talented. Each of them could have a solo career and be fabulous. I am subscribing today. Please, please give us weekly doses of this group. (Fans call themselves Home Fries and are quite loyal, so I could see them helping to grow your channel.). Best wishes for success with all your endeavors and keep shining for Jesus!!
Home Free is full of amazing talent. This is a very old song…over 100 years old. Lot’s to be depressed about so he was alone and without friends. The beatboxer was doing drums, harmonica and other sounds. They can all sing and all take the lead depending on the song. They weren’t sweating but they were wet…it rained on them (overalls guy was wet too). They sing all genres of music try End of the Road by Boyz II Men. It’s great by them!😍
You made me laugh so hard! Really entertaining. I subscribed. I'm enjoying your thoughts on music that's new to you. Man of Constant Sorrows is a really old southern song that has its roots in Ireland. Hundreds of years old. It might have started as a religious song, as Isaiah in the Bible calls Jesus the "Man of Constant Sorrow" when he's prophesying about his coming birth and crucifixion. It's morphed over the years into a southern song about a man having a tough time in this life, but knowing that he'll one day reunite with his loved ones in heaven. A lot of old Irish music is sad - they're called "laments" - and they'd sing in beautiful melody about hard times or loved ones lost. Our American southerners who lived in the Appalachian mountains and thereabouts were descended from the Irish and the Scots and they brought a lot of that music tradition with them. Out of that we eventually get our modern blues and country music.
You should check out the following videos from Home free Adam Rupp drum solo where he is wearing a red plaid shirt and also The Butts Melody/ remix and A cover to Boys to men song end of the road
😂 This song was written around 1913. It's been around a long time and covered by many people. The human harmonica is Adam Rupp. The first singer is Austin Brown, husky guy in the glasses is Rob Lundquist and the deep voice guy is Tim Foust. Adam Chance (hat & vest) in the back was making the twangy jaw harp sound.
If you want to know these guys names, best way is to react to "Workin' For A Livin'", a cover of a Huey Lewis and the News hit from the 80's. It introduces all of them by name at the beginning. Also, the video is hilarious (it's an "Anchorman" tribute), and Adam has an even more kickass "nomonica" solo.
Harmonica. Used in Blue grass, blues, mountain/folk, country/western music. It's been around forever. It has a beautiful sound. It's small so it's easy to carry on you.🎶
Welcome to the Home Free party. So talented. They have a very deep and varied catalog. Everything from country to rock to R&B to sacred to opera. I recommend Helplessly Hoping or their original Playing with Fire. Enjoy the ride.
Subbed for more Home Free. Oh, honey, you need to listen to their “butts medley.” It’s a lot of fun and they’re just so hilarious!!!! Brilliant arrangement as well.
This song is a remake from the movie O Brother, Where Art Thou? It was a great movie with George Clooney. Excellent soundtrack. Tim Foust is the bass voice. Home Free is an excellent group!
These guys Harmonize like no one …Never off…Always on Point 😋🫶🏼👍🔥❣️… the talent in this group just Amazing ..🤬💗❣️‼️🔥. Welcome to the Home Free Rabbit Hole 🔥❣️‼️👍 LOLOL…They weren’t sweating…it was Raining 🌧️⛈️🌨️🌩️☔️💧🌦️ This song was written in the early 1920’s ….over 100 years ago‼️😅🤣..Adam was making All those instrumental sounds…he’s amazingly talented….one of the Best Beat Boxers /Vocal Percussionist in the country 🔥‼️🔥
I too will be watching the Royal Rumble! After Smackdown tonight, plus I watch the watch along shows lol! I never noticed how much Tim looked like Drew but you are right. These guys never disappoint! How Great Thou Art is soul soothing…..Everybody Walking This Land is an incredible social justice anthem to me. They do covers with original artists like The Oakridge Boys, Lee Greenwood, Kenny Rodgers and Don McLean. Their music helped me through a very dark time and I’m a forever fan!
Welcome tothe homefree rabbit hole. Its deep but so much fun. You will be a homefry in no time looking forward to your next reaction. Check out when a man loves a woman and drum solo
New subscriber. Great reaction, too! I love it when people discover Home Free. They are a freakishly talented group of fellas that excel in all music genres. They can make you laugh sometimes, they can make you cry sometimes but they always impress. Here's a cheat sheet on the group: Adam Rupp, co-founder of HF and the awesome beatboxer. Tim Foust, bass. He has a five-octave range. Rob Lundquist (glasses and beard) Tenor Harmony. Austin Brown, Lead Tenor. Adam Chance, Baritone ( goes by Chance). Chance replaced Chris Rupp (co-founder) who left in 2016. Take Me Home Country Roads is phenomenal but you might also want to check out Dreamer, When A Man Loves A Woman, End Of The Road, One Man Band, American Pie featuring Don McLean, I Swear, Blue Ain't Your Color, Dive Bar Saints, The Driver, Crazy and Folsom Prison Blues. For some funny ones: Butts Medley, All About That Bass, Champagne Taste, Hillbilly Bone and Ray Stevens' Mississippi Squirrel Revival. For some serious ones: How Great Thou Art, Go Rest High On That Mountain. When you are familiar with all the boys and their vocal roles, do Mayday. And last but not least, Brothers In Arms. It is haunting and beautiful. They have recently released several new songs that you will want to check out. Unchained Melody, Listen to the Music, Brother and Stargazer Lilies trilogy: Give Me A Sign, Stargazer Lilies and Mr. ...Their latest releases are Might As Well Be Me, Playing With Fire, Remember My Name, Oh, Pretty Woman, Cruise, Stand By Me, Colder Weather and Life is a Highway. To switch it up..try Two Country Singers try singing Opera. Adam Chance just wrote the theme song to Ubisoft's new Pirate themed video game, Skull and Bones and Home Free performs it. Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole!
Yes it’s all vocals… No instruments! Adam Rupp is doing the “harmonica”, drums, clicks & castanets(Sea Shanty Medly). In live onstage Austin does harmonica duet with Adam. Chance does jews harp at beginning & end! Each band member his multitalented and often covers the part of a different band member! Can’t wait for your next home free reaction! Try. “How Great Thou Art”. Tons of great songs to listen to!!
Check out Home free drum solo. That will get you a lot of views. You have been a pleasure. You remind me of a black friend I have. 30 years later, and it kills me. It was starting to get dark at the end of October. I ask him if he wants to go to a Haunted House, he started talking about I ain't scared of no boogie man. So we get to this old 3 story house. Half way up this long dirt road and he asked me, this is top of the houses. Then he 😊asked me where is the ticket taker? I told him, did you see any other cars? Now comes the reason that I told you that he was black. It's just me and him,😊 and he is the only one with a car key!!!! I like to ever keep up with him.😊
JayT, you've been bitten by the Home Free bug. You'll find yourself looking for more and more from them, and you'll notice that they do pretty much EVERY type of music that exists. And their videos are always fun, too, over and above their voices!
Though published in 1913 by Dick Burnett, who did not compose it, this song is an old American Folk Song. It was already old when published - he just put it to paper - which then enabled him to earn from its use. Prior to that it was learned "by ear" having originated in & around Kentucky, Tennessee and thereabouts.
This song was originally in a movie about convicts being transported by train when a guy sings this. Talking about his girl at home that might leave him before he gets out of prison.
The song is over a hundred years old. It became popular again in the movie Brother Where Art Thou with George Clooney. Home Free is labeled a country group, but they can and do all genres of music. You might be interested in their version of BoyzIIMen's End of the Road. Shawn Stockman of B2M was a judge on the acapella competition show The Sing-Off. Home Free won on season four of the show. The members are: Austin Brown--the lead singer of this song, High tenor. Trained in musical theater. Rob Lundquist- The guy with the glasses and beard. Low and lead tenor. Trained in opera. Tim Foust- The bass. He can sing five octaves, so he can sing tenor, baritone, and bass. Adam Rupp beatboxer. He and his brother Chris who is no longer in the group founded Home Free in 2001. He can also sing tenor but prefers beatboxing. Adam Chance- The guy on the left on the back row. He is called Chance to prevent confusion with Adam Rupp. He can sing four octaves, which are bass, baritone, and tenor. He usually sings baritone unless Tim is singing lead. He is making the mouth harp sound in this video. There is no lead singer. They all sing lead depending on the song. They have a vast catalogue of videos with all types of songs, serious songs, goofy songs, R & B, country, romantic songs, Christmas songs, etc.
Well that was a fun song to watch, never knew about this group. Love your reaction and observations as well! Subscribed after watching my 3rd video of yours.😊
In my opinion, Home Free is the best--period. It's easy to forget they are completely acapella and make all "instrumental" sounds themselves. In this song they are making a distinctly southern (country blues/bluegrass) presentation--it definitely fits the lyrics of the song (about the underground railroad). Chance doing the jaw harp sound really sets the stage for this song's story, which Austin's twang fits phenomenally. Tim's bass line completely grounds the harmonies and Adam's voice percussion simply cannot be beat. This performance highlights a lot of Home Free's strengths although they also handle ANY other genre just as amazingly❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️ Some of my favorites are "Working for a Living", "Good 'Ol Country Harmony", "Land of the Free", "Remember This", "Elvira" (with the Oak Ridge Boys), "Undivided", "Try Everything", "Ain't Goin' Down 'Til the Sun Comes Up" (which is not on YT--it's on their official Facebook page), "Listen to the Music", "Understand", and "Road Sweet Road" 😍! #HomeFree #WorldsBestBeatboxer
This is from a 2000 movie O Brother Where Art Thou starring George Clooney. The film is set in rural Mississippi in 1937, and it follows three escaped convicts searching for hidden treasure while a sheriff relentlessly pursues them. Its story is a modern satire which, while incorporating social features of the American South, is loosely based on Homer's epic Greek poem The Odyssey. He's not sweating, it was raining
Subscribing in hopes of more Home Free reactions. Tim Foust, the bass, wasn't sweating, it started raining during filming. If you look closely you can see the rain and some puddles and Rob's (in the overalls) shirt is wet. These guys are great! There is no harmonica, in fact, we Home Fries call that the nomonica, it's just Adam Rupp. For a contrast, try End of the Road or Listen to the Music. They are spectacular in all that they do. Thanks for reacting to my favorite group!
This song is over a hundred years old. And has been done by many artists. Including Bob Dylan thank you for your review. I like home free. Off to watch more of your videos. Blessings.
This is one of their most popular songs. Austin Brown, is their high tenor, Rob Lundquist is a great tenor, Tim Foust is their bass with 5 octave range, Adam Chance is their bass/baritone, Adam Rupp is their world class beatboxer. CK out Ring of Fire❤️❤️❤️
End of the Road, Butts Medley, When A Man Loves A Woman, Unchained Melody, Hillbilly Bone, Listen to the Music..All covers but they do originals as well that are excellent!
I beleve the train they were talking about was the Underground Railroad. The song was originally about a slave escaping from his master. It was writtten long ago.
The song was originally published in 1913 and later covered by Bob Dylan & Joan Baez among others. Home Free is the best acapella band around. They sing in almost every genre and, since 3 of them are song writers, there are lots of originals as well as covers. I think you'd enjoy the video "Sea Shanty Medley Live" - it'll be a revelation! The beatboxer (Adam Rupp) is incomparable!
due to some copyright issues, when trying to upload the video, some parts were trimmed out.
Copy that. I was wondering if I was going crazy. Great review sir!
Left to right, the members of the group are: Rob Lundquist (big beard, main tenor and great whistler), Adam Chance (baritone/bass, making the mouth-harp noise at beginning and end of the video), Austin Brown (center, high tenor--I mean HIGH tenor), Adam Rupp (co-founder of the group, tenor, beat-boxer--considered one of the best beat-boxers in the world), and Tim Foust (bass-to-nearly tenor, five octave range!).
Love #HomeFree, Great Reaction
The next Home Free song should be their cover of End of the Road by Boyz II Men done at the urging of Shawn Stockman of BTM who was a judge on the competition show they appeared on. Remember no instruments when you listen to that one. They can do any genre.
I think one a man loves a woman is one of their best… and certainly the funniest one is the butt collage and video
Subbed for more of the boys!!! They are the best of the best!!
Many people think this song is from the movie Oh Brother, Where Art Thou, but it is much older than that. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Man of Constant Sorrow" (also known as "I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow") is a traditional American folk song first published by Dick Burnett, a partially blind fiddler from Kentucky.

Welcome to the Rabbit Hole my friend! Where HomeFree gets air time, we show up! HomeFries are many and loyal! Tim wasn't sweating, it was raining on and off as they shot the video and Adam's No-monica is just one of his extensive talents!
This is an old blues song from the early 1900s. Life was hard for the songwriter and people travelled by train back then.
Home Free is incredible. Everything they do is great. And although they are a Country A-cappela group, they can really sing all genres. They really all have great voices with their own specialties. Even Adam Rupp who started the group with his brother Chris Rupp. Chris left the group in 2016 to go solo but also to start other projects with his sister, among others.
Adam Rupp-Beatboxer but is actually an inhuman freaking good mouth artist.
Tim Foust- Deep bass but also as a tenor and everything in between is possible.
Austin Brown-High tenor with his great runs and high notes.
Rob Lundquist (beard and glasses)-Tenor, with a voice like velvet and so much soul.
Adam Chance (back left, who is called Chance) - Baritone/ Bass, a voice so smooth and sexy. And who here also makes the Jaw harp sound.
There is no permanent lead singer in Home Free. They look at every song whose voice suits it best, the best harmony, no egos, no rivalries, great personalities etc. Besides, they can all beatbox (see their live performance 9to5). ..
This is one of the many covers they do in addition to various originals, and each one is just amazing.
Take the time to discover Home Free because it will be a great tour. For me they are number 1 A-Cappella groupI
😂😂 Nice reaction!! You gotta check out their cover of Boys II men End of the road!! Subscribed for #HomeFree
Peace, Love!!

Lol, Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole!
🎉
Yes, one of the amazing thing about #homefree is that each band member is incredibly talented and brings something different to the group, while they harmonize majestically and have great group chemistry. It's an uncanny combination. All their music is food for the soul. Check out their cover of Folsom Prison Blues. BTW, they're just as good live.
He ain't sweating it's raining
Home Free is great. I'm dying to hear them live.
Ooooh, you should react to Queen. Look for Somebody to Love - HD Live - 1981 Montreal
i recorded that reaction yesterday. it will be up soon!
@@JayTDeion Oh good!

You missed the tail end of the video! It has a cool finish.
Also - yep those guys do all their own sounds - including the harmonica!
All music is created by mouth or body percussion. All the singers can beatbox to some extent, but the main beatboxer in Adam Rupp, the dude who was creating the harmonica sound without a harmonica. He can recreate the sound of drums so well that actual drum players are astounded at his realism.
That was a #NoMonica !!!!
I went to a Home Free concert in 2022 and it was a lot of fun to see them and hear them sing and talk about their music.

That is an original song written by Adam Chance (the baritone for Home Free and he sings lead on that song). Chance wrote and they recorded the song for a new video game and the video with scenes from the game is incredible.
Home Free are the absolute best at what they do. Adam Rupp is the beatboxer other beatboxers aspire to be. His "no-monica" is unmatched. You should react to How Great Thou Art and their cover of Boyz2Men End of the road. New subscriber hoping for more Home Free songs. ❤
Oh what a fun reaction, I look forward to your future Home Free reactions!
This is an old song. They are the best at it that I've heard.
This song is about 100 years old and it was also in the Movie " Brother where art thou" You have to listen to their Boy to men cover of End of the road. It will blow you away.
ok now that you've started going down that rabbit hole. I know you'll love their version of Boys to Men's End of The Road and their mash up of Thinking Out Loud and Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On. Both great.
I am 43 years old.. and one of the BIGGEST things I learned in life.. and it's 100% true... NEVER judge a book by it's cover!! Great life lesson if you trust in that!
Very entertaining reaction! I was laughing my a$$ off.
Your impressions were impressive. And your reaction is fun too :-)
Yoooo!! The face expressions and the “WHY HE SWEATING” & “DREW MCINTYRE” lines had me rolling 😂😂 you keep improving with every video. Keep grinding, bro 🙏🏾
😂 Me too. He didn't notice that it was pouring rain and they kept rolling. 🥰
it sure was raining!!! my bad 😭
#HOMEFREE
This will be epic😂😂😂❤❤love these guys. 😂enjoy😂
Tim Foust is the bass for the group. You should hear them sing How Great Thou Art.
Subbed for more #HomeFree! I hope you dive down the rabbit hole. I don't think you'll be disappointed and we'll follow you! Enjoy!
Great Reaction 👍🙏
THE GREATEST A-Capella Group out there!🥰🎶EVERY song is fire! They do a beautiful job respecting the original music ♥️
This is the best Acapella group ever, hope you jump into this rabbit hole and enjoy the ride, because they are amazing
Man of Constant Sorrow, first recorded in 1928, released in film 2000, “OH BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU”.
😆😆 You're funny!! Subbed hoping for more #HomeFree
Yes, welcome to Home Free, all acapella, no instruments at all. Masters of all musical genres. They won the 4th season of the Sing Off in 2013. Their covers are upgrades, their medleys are brilliant, their collaborations with the original artists are inspirational, and their original songs are masterpieces. Within this 5 man vocal band you have 5 tenors, 5 beat boxers, and 2 bass-baritones. All of them can sing lead and they choose depending on whose voice best fits the song. The group consists of Adam Rupp (beat boxer), Rob Lundquist (Tenor), Chris Rupp (Baritone, he left the group in 2016), these three are from Minnesota, Adam Chance (Baritone/Bass Who replaced Chris in 2016) from Alabama, Tim Foust (Bass - with a 5 octave range, G0-A5) from Texas, and Austin Brown (High Tenor) from Georgia. They can do just about anything and they continue to grow and improve, yet they remain so humble. When they have featured guest artist, they support and allow their featured artists to shine. Several of them have their own channels and do some solo work. And just for fun Rob and Austin sing Opera. What else can I say? Their catalogue of work is quite large and continues to grow. You are in for an exciting journey and the Home Fries will be there for you all the way.
You'll be a Home Fry in no time.
Got a lot of favorites that homefree have sung, like Elvira feat. The oak ridge boys, champagne taste on a beer budget, their cover of all about that base, their medleys and remixs like the butts remix, so many good ones...I'm a certified home fry
Great reaction. More home free.
Roflmbo, you be tripping 😂.
If you react to Home Free, the Home Fries will come to your channel! I agree with suggestions to do “End of the Road” next- Rob(heavy beard and glasses) has the main lead , and he presents us with Gospel Rob. Rob can be Angelic, R&B, Gospel, Pop, and Rap. The next may be “Butts Medley “ which is vocally great, but also shows you their humor. And if you really want to hear Rob cut loose, look up the RUclips video of Home Free at the Hosanna concert 2013 performing their rendition of the Christmas carol “Joy To the World “. It’s a jazzy, funky arrangement, and Rob really digs deep. There’s even a beatbox breakdown.
The most awesome five ever❤️💞❤️
Glad you liked them. My favorite group. They do covers, original music, opera, about any genre. I think you would love their Boyz to Men cover of End of the Road. For a little 60’s/70’s try Love Train an OJays cover. Their videos are top notch. They can be serious (How Great Thou Art is fantastic), they can be funny (Butts Medley, which is not about women’s butts!). Beautiful harmony in Helplessly Hoping. And songs that have a message like Don’t Laugh at Me, Everybody Walking This Land, In the Blood. They won The Sing Off back in 2013, I think and you can view all of their performances (I would suggest videos that include the judges comments as they are priceless). Yep, you have just fallen into one of the best rabbit holes ever. All nice guys, love their fans, creative, sooo talented. Each of them could have a solo career and be fabulous. I am subscribing today. Please, please give us weekly doses of this group. (Fans call themselves Home Fries and are quite loyal, so I could see them helping to grow your channel.). Best wishes for success with all your endeavors and keep shining for Jesus!!
Home Free will never miss on a song. They are the best out there
Home Free is full of amazing talent. This is a very old song…over 100 years old. Lot’s to be depressed about so he was alone and without friends. The beatboxer was doing drums, harmonica and other sounds. They can all sing and all take the lead depending on the song. They weren’t sweating but they were wet…it rained on them (overalls guy was wet too). They sing all genres of music try End of the Road by Boyz II Men. It’s great by them!😍
You made me laugh so hard! Really entertaining. I subscribed. I'm enjoying your thoughts on music that's new to you. Man of Constant Sorrows is a really old southern song that has its roots in Ireland. Hundreds of years old. It might have started as a religious song, as Isaiah in the Bible calls Jesus the "Man of Constant Sorrow" when he's prophesying about his coming birth and crucifixion. It's morphed over the years into a southern song about a man having a tough time in this life, but knowing that he'll one day reunite with his loved ones in heaven. A lot of old Irish music is sad - they're called "laments" - and they'd sing in beautiful melody about hard times or loved ones lost. Our American southerners who lived in the Appalachian mountains and thereabouts were descended from the Irish and the Scots and they brought a lot of that music tradition with them. Out of that we eventually get our modern blues and country music.
You should check out the following videos from Home free
Adam Rupp drum solo where he is wearing a red plaid shirt and also
The Butts Melody/ remix and
A cover to Boys to men song end of the road
😂 This song was written around 1913. It's been around a long time and covered by many people.
The human harmonica is Adam Rupp. The first singer is Austin Brown, husky guy in the glasses is Rob Lundquist and the deep voice guy is Tim Foust. Adam Chance (hat & vest) in the back was making the twangy jaw harp sound.
He wasn't sweating. It was raining there while they were making the video. That was rain you were seeing.
The next Home Free song you should check out is Boyz to Men End of the Road! Gospel Rob kills it!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
If you want to know these guys names, best way is to react to "Workin' For A Livin'", a cover of a Huey Lewis and the News hit from the 80's. It introduces all of them by name at the beginning. Also, the video is hilarious (it's an "Anchorman" tribute), and Adam has an even more kickass "nomonica" solo.
Harmonica. Used in Blue grass, blues, mountain/folk, country/western music. It's been around forever. It has a beautiful sound. It's small so it's easy to carry on you.🎶
Welcome to the Home Free party. So talented. They have a very deep and varied catalog. Everything from country to rock to R&B to sacred to opera. I recommend Helplessly Hoping or their original Playing with Fire. Enjoy the ride.
Subbed for more Home Free. Oh, honey, you need to listen to their “butts medley.” It’s a lot of fun and they’re just so hilarious!!!! Brilliant arrangement as well.
This song is a remake from the movie O Brother, Where Art Thou?
It was a great movie with George Clooney. Excellent soundtrack.
Tim Foust is the bass voice. Home Free is an excellent group!
Actually the song dates back to around 1913 and has been recorded many times since then (including used in the movie). 👍
Actually, the song was written over 100 years ago, well before the movie.
These guys Harmonize like no one …Never off…Always on Point 😋🫶🏼👍🔥❣️… the talent in this group just Amazing ..🤬💗❣️‼️🔥. Welcome to the Home Free Rabbit Hole 🔥❣️‼️👍
LOLOL…They weren’t sweating…it was Raining 🌧️⛈️🌨️🌩️☔️💧🌦️
This song was written in the early 1920’s ….over 100 years ago‼️😅🤣..Adam was making All those instrumental sounds…he’s amazingly talented….one of the Best Beat Boxers
/Vocal Percussionist in the country 🔥‼️🔥
check out Home Free's - When a Man Loves a Woman & Listen to the music
I too will be watching the Royal Rumble! After Smackdown tonight, plus I watch the watch along shows lol! I never noticed how much Tim looked like Drew but you are right. These guys never disappoint! How Great Thou Art is soul soothing…..Everybody Walking This Land is an incredible social justice anthem to me. They do covers with original artists like The Oakridge Boys, Lee Greenwood, Kenny Rodgers and Don McLean. Their music helped me through a very dark time and I’m a forever fan!
Welcome tothe homefree rabbit hole. Its deep but so much fun. You will be a homefry in no time looking forward to your next reaction. Check out when a man loves a woman and drum solo
New subscriber. Great reaction, too! I love it when people discover Home Free. They are a freakishly talented group of fellas that excel in all music genres. They can make you laugh sometimes, they can make you cry sometimes but they always impress. Here's a cheat sheet on the group: Adam Rupp, co-founder of HF and the awesome beatboxer. Tim Foust, bass. He has a five-octave range. Rob Lundquist (glasses and beard) Tenor Harmony. Austin Brown, Lead Tenor. Adam Chance, Baritone ( goes by Chance). Chance replaced Chris Rupp (co-founder) who left in 2016. Take Me Home Country Roads is phenomenal but you might also want to check out Dreamer, When A Man Loves A Woman, End Of The Road, One Man Band, American Pie featuring Don McLean, I Swear, Blue Ain't Your Color, Dive Bar Saints, The Driver, Crazy and Folsom Prison Blues. For some funny ones: Butts Medley, All About That Bass, Champagne Taste, Hillbilly Bone and Ray Stevens' Mississippi Squirrel Revival. For some serious ones: How Great Thou Art, Go Rest High On That Mountain. When you are familiar with all the boys and their vocal roles, do Mayday. And last but not least, Brothers In Arms. It is haunting and beautiful. They have recently released several new songs that you will want to check out. Unchained Melody, Listen to the Music, Brother and Stargazer Lilies trilogy: Give Me A Sign, Stargazer Lilies and Mr. ...Their latest releases are Might As Well Be Me, Playing With Fire, Remember My Name, Oh, Pretty Woman, Cruise, Stand By Me, Colder Weather and Life is a Highway. To switch it up..try Two Country Singers try singing Opera. Adam Chance just wrote the theme song to Ubisoft's new Pirate themed video game, Skull and Bones and Home Free performs it. Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole!
Nice reaction!! This was the first HF song I heard. I’ve been listening to them every day since. Keep em coming!! 😊
There isn't a harmonica - Adam Rupp's playing the "nomonica". 🤣
Yes it’s all vocals… No instruments! Adam Rupp is doing the “harmonica”, drums, clicks & castanets(Sea Shanty Medly). In live onstage Austin does harmonica duet with Adam. Chance does jews harp at beginning & end! Each band member his multitalented and often covers the part of a different band member! Can’t wait for your next home free reaction! Try. “How Great Thou Art”. Tons of great songs to listen to!!
This is just the beginning of your life changing experience..have fun going down this rabbit hole..cant wait to see more from you qith home free
Check out Home free drum solo.
That will get you a lot of views.
You have been a pleasure.
You remind me of a black friend I have.
30 years later, and it kills me.
It was starting to get dark at the end of October. I ask him if he wants to go to a Haunted House, he started talking about I ain't scared of no boogie man.
So we get to this old 3 story house. Half way up this long dirt road and he asked me, this is top of the houses.
Then he 😊asked me where is the ticket taker? I told him, did you see any other cars?
Now comes the reason that I told you that he was black.
It's just me and him,😊 and he is the only one with a car key!!!! I like to ever keep up with him.😊
Great reaction to the best a capella band out there!
JayT, you've been bitten by the Home Free bug. You'll find yourself looking for more and more from them, and you'll notice that they do pretty much EVERY type of music that exists. And their videos are always fun, too, over and above their voices!
Though published in 1913 by Dick Burnett, who did not compose it, this song is an old American Folk Song. It was already old when published - he just put it to paper - which then enabled him to earn from its use. Prior to that it was learned "by ear" having originated in & around Kentucky, Tennessee and thereabouts.
This song was originally in a movie about convicts being transported by train when a guy sings this. Talking about his girl at home that might leave him before he gets out of prison.
The song is over a hundred years old. It became popular again in the movie Brother Where Art Thou with George Clooney.
Home Free is labeled a country group, but they can and do all genres of music. You might be interested in their version of BoyzIIMen's End of the Road. Shawn Stockman of B2M was a judge on the acapella competition show The Sing-Off. Home Free won on season four of the show.
The members are:
Austin Brown--the lead singer of this song, High tenor. Trained in musical theater.
Rob Lundquist- The guy with the glasses and beard. Low and lead tenor. Trained in opera.
Tim Foust- The bass. He can sing five octaves, so he can sing tenor, baritone, and bass.
Adam Rupp beatboxer. He and his brother Chris who is no longer in the group founded Home Free in 2001. He can also sing tenor but prefers beatboxing.
Adam Chance- The guy on the left on the back row. He is called Chance to prevent confusion with Adam Rupp. He can sing four octaves, which are bass, baritone, and tenor. He usually sings baritone unless Tim is singing lead. He is making the mouth harp sound in this video.
There is no lead singer. They all sing lead depending on the song. They have a vast catalogue of videos with all types of songs, serious songs, goofy songs, R & B, country, romantic songs, Christmas songs, etc.
Well that was a fun song to watch, never knew about this group. Love your reaction and observations as well! Subscribed after watching my 3rd video of yours.😊
In my opinion, Home Free is the best--period. It's easy to forget they are completely acapella and make all "instrumental" sounds themselves.
In this song they are making a distinctly southern (country blues/bluegrass) presentation--it definitely fits the lyrics of the song (about the underground railroad). Chance doing the jaw harp sound really sets the stage for this song's story, which Austin's twang fits phenomenally. Tim's bass line completely grounds the harmonies and Adam's voice percussion simply cannot be beat. This performance highlights a lot of Home Free's strengths although they also handle ANY other genre just as amazingly❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️
Some of my favorites are "Working for a Living", "Good 'Ol Country Harmony", "Land of the Free", "Remember This", "Elvira" (with the Oak Ridge Boys), "Undivided", "Try Everything", "Ain't Goin' Down 'Til the Sun Comes Up" (which is not on YT--it's on their official Facebook page), "Listen to the Music", "Understand", and "Road Sweet Road" 😍!
#HomeFree #WorldsBestBeatboxer
Rob, Austin and Tim in the front row, Chance and Adam (beatboxer) in back. Best singers out there
I love your reactions and comments to Home Free "Man of Constant Sorrow"❤❤
This is from a 2000 movie O Brother Where Art Thou starring George Clooney. The film is set in rural Mississippi in 1937, and it follows three escaped convicts searching for hidden treasure while a sheriff relentlessly pursues them. Its story is a modern satire which, while incorporating social features of the American South, is loosely based on Homer's epic Greek poem The Odyssey. He's not sweating, it was raining
Subscribing in hopes of more Home Free reactions. Tim Foust, the bass, wasn't sweating, it started raining during filming. If you look closely you can see the rain and some puddles and Rob's (in the overalls) shirt is wet. These guys are great! There is no harmonica, in fact, we Home Fries call that the nomonica, it's just Adam Rupp. For a contrast, try End of the Road or Listen to the Music. They are spectacular in all that they do. Thanks for reacting to my favorite group!
Kentucky!
This song is over a hundred years old. And has been done by many artists. Including Bob Dylan thank you for your review. I like home free. Off to watch more of your videos. Blessings.
They sing in every genre , not to mention an excellent cover of The End of the Road! ❤❤❤subbed!!!!
Beatboxer Adam did all that percussion.
The next link is called. Mack the knife. By. Bobby Darrin
This is one of their most popular songs. Austin Brown, is their high tenor, Rob Lundquist is a great tenor, Tim Foust is their bass with 5 octave range, Adam Chance is their bass/baritone, Adam Rupp is their world class beatboxer. CK out Ring of Fire❤️❤️❤️
End of the Road, Butts Medley, When A Man Loves A Woman, Unchained Melody, Hillbilly Bone, Listen to the Music..All covers but they do originals as well that are excellent!
Adam Rupp is the most amazing beat boxer. This is so talented. You can't go wrong listening to Home Free.
Check out the Boys to Men covers
I beleve the train they were talking about was the Underground Railroad. The song was originally about a slave escaping from his master. It was writtten long ago.
I didn't know that about the song
The song was originally published in 1913 and later covered by Bob Dylan & Joan Baez among others. Home Free is the best acapella band around. They sing in almost every genre and, since 3 of them are song writers, there are lots of originals as well as covers. I think you'd enjoy the video "Sea Shanty Medley Live" - it'll be a revelation! The beatboxer (Adam Rupp) is incomparable!
