    The high tenor is Austin Brown! He has a serious background in classical & musical theater and worked hard to lose his southern Georgia accent, but didn’t have to worry about that since he joined Home Free. He worked a short while at Disney World singing in the “Voices of Liberty” too. You should check out them singing “Bring Him Home” from Les Miserables, Austin sings the lead. They used to do it after Adam’s beat box solo to give him a break. Here’s a link of a live performance. ruclips.net/video/FAarrEj4or8/видео.html

    The "ONE" that got me started ......... And never a regret --- no disappointments ever! And it was Tim's lead that started it all ....... The start was awesome --- but the end of that lead is what caught my ear!!!! THAT was the point of discovery .... and the proverbial "no return"!

    I find Austin's voice so melodious. It's great to be a high tenor but his voice is so smooth with naturally sweet, sweet timber. Heard him last week giving a shout out to someone on his Facebook and then went from dialogue straight into song and I almost lost my mind. So yeah, Austin's voice is like butter in the sun. He shows his great range in "Bring Him Home" from Les Miserables - Home Free Live video.

    Rob Lundquist (Second Tenor - Bearded guy with glasses)
    Adam Rupp (Beatboxist/Second Tenor/First Baritone)
    Chris Rupp (First & Second Baritone - Guy in the Cowboy Hat)
    ____________________________________________________________________________
    Yes, you are right. Chris Rupp left the group to follow a solo career
    which includes quite a bit of Christian Music. He, along with Adam
    his brother, formed the group in college.
    He was still with Home Free when they chose a singer to take his
    place for when he would leave. In fact; Chris was the guy who picked
    Adam Chance as his replacement.

      @@ajisegundo2268 = No, I mean Beatboxist. An (ist) is a master of their trade. An (er) is simply one who does.
      I believe Adam Rupp is more than simply a person mimicking noise. He innovates sound through Vocal Percussion. Much better than a typical Beatboxer.

    • @Jaems_Scott
      @Jaems_Scott 4 года назад +1

      @Granypanies = Tenor 1 --- High Tenor is a description that the group uses. It's not an actual term.
      In Music scale, they use numbers to represent seat placement, and letters to represent cord.
      As a Tenor in a Vocal Band, Austin fluctuates between different Tenor Cords, but sings exclusively in Tenor.
      So, where as he may be a High Tenor (singing in notes Higher than Rob, in Tenor 2), it would more accurate to say Austin sings 1rst Seat, which is Tenor 1.

    This is the second song that I heard them sing. How Great Thou Art was the first. O Holy Night my favorite Christmas song. used to play this on piano and that's what the arpeggios reminded me of., and singing this in choirs also helped. Thanks for your reaction. I didn't think that I could remember names either. But the more you watch their videos, the easier the names will come to you.

  • @sallymaria
    @sallymaria 4 года назад +13

    Great to see you reacting to more Christmas Home Free. They've got some more choir-style arrangements, and some really fun songs, some they've officially recorded and some they've only done live in their Christmas shows, I hope you get the chance to react to them in the future.
    This was Tim Foust's arrangement - apparently it was one of the first things he arranged for acapella when he was still in High School, though this is a more sophisticated version. He and Austin Brown, the high tenor, really get to show off in this one - but one of the wonderful things about Home Free is that you have a group of singers who are all so individually talented, but who are also happy to share the lead. Who knows what the future will hold, but Austin has certainly said in the past that he wants to stay with the group because he enjoys harmony singing so much.

    I love Christmas music and Home Free so much so getting them both is wonderful, thank you!! This is a beautiful arrangement although I do agree I wish they'd done the actual second verse. You have actually seen Chris in videos before including Ring of Fire, Mom, Elvira and Children Go Where I send Thee with Kenny Rogers. The switch over of Chris to Chance was 2016. You can see a switch from April to June of 2016 with their music videos, and then everything after June is all Chance. Please continue doing Home Free for Christmas sunday!! Enjoy!

He left on good terms with everyone, In fact Chance was in one of the last videos Chris was in (House Party). Chris has a solo career now and has had Tim singing with him and the whole group has done some backup for him. Rob is the guy with the beard.

    Austin was singing as the main solosist on a cruise ship when they discovered him. They needed someone within that year and he wanted to be with them and it all worked out for all of us!!! We are so blessed! Yes, agree that you MUST listen to Austin sing Bring Him Home from Les Miserables. It shows off his voice that is so classically trained. What I love about Austin so much is that he can sing down and dirty like Man of Constant Sorrows, then all out country twang and then switch over to something like this. They are wonderful together and thankful he wanted to be part of a group not on his own!!! Take care, be safe.
