Apologies, this is my 3rd comment. I just keep thinking of things to add. This time I wanted to alert Pastor James to my favorite cover of "Softly and Tenderly". It is on the YT channel FountainView Academy, and was posted in January of 2022 (I think). The 2 singers have what the good pastor calls a real relationship with our Saviour. At least I think so, but I don't claim to have the discernment that Pastor James has. More so than any pastor that I know of, Pastor James really can look into our souls.
When you asked "who's singing right now" ...his name is Peter Hollens! He is from my home state of Oregon & had Home Free sing with him. I am blessed to have had Peter sing at my wedding in 2006!
Your reaction is top-notch: Your inclusion of the devotion was a definite plus. The great tune of the music was most expertly and beautifully performed.
Tim Foust is a rare rich basso profundo - deepest of basses - he rattles floors and breaks sounds systems with his low notes and yes he has a 5 octave range up to a high tenor and... he is songwriter too. Adam Chance going by Chance, is the baritone but covers bass when Tim takes lead, Rob Lundquist (beard and glasses) is the lead tenor with a warm soulful voice and Austin Brown is the strong crystal clear high tenor. Adam Rupp is their beat boxer extraordinaire otherwise called "freak of nature" or "living drumkit", he's a tenor but he seldom is singing. The man in the middle here is a guest Peter Hollens who recorded quite a few song with Home Free as a whole and with Tim Foust.
Yes, that was the bass. Tim Foust has a 5 octave range and sounds amazing on both ends of it. I'm not much of a country music fan, either, but this group changed my mind. I listen to them all the time since I discovered them back around 2016. Though there are two "Adams," the original Adam to the group (the beatboxer) still goes by Adam and the second Adam that came along around 2015-16 or so, goes by his last name, Chance.
Yes Tim Foust is for real. He has a 5 octave range. His voice can go lower and higher than what you have just heard. The 6 person was Peter Hollens who was the arranger and producer of this version and he invited Home Free to sing with him. You will need to add him to your listening of acapella artist. He regularly collaborates with Tim Foust of Home Free on some beautiful duets : MISTY MOUNTAINS that shows off Peter’s voice and his 120 voICE choral choir and Tim will show you the bottom of his bass range,. Others are: SOUND OF SILENCE, GREENSLEEVES, BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATERS, SUNSHINE ON MY SHOULDERS. Peter and Home Free collaborated on a cover of U2’s STILL HAVEN’T FOUND WHAT I LOOKING FOR (highly recommended). Here are a couple of their non country covers I think you would enjoy. END OF THE ROAD by Boyz2Men and WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN by Percy Sledge. Enjoy your journey listening to Home Free and Peter Hollens. Have a blessed day.
I prefer Home Free to other groups because of their energy. Whether they sing something very Christian or something completely secular, I always feel better, happier and more at peace after listening to them. I could never make the same connection to the other a capella groups. They have a great sense of humour. Thanks for the lovely reation. Regards from Argentina.
Peter Hollens was the sixth voice and joined up with them for this. He’s done a lot of collaboration work with Tim and HF. They are my favorite of the big accapella groups.
Love your reaction, Pastor James! This is actually Peter Hollens video featuring Home Free. They do a lot of collaborations together. Sometimes, it's Home Free featuring Peter Hollens. Peter is the 6th person & has his own channel. Home Free is just the 5 guys & there is no "lead" singer. They give the lead to whomever is the best for each song: Tim Foust - basso profundo with 5+ octave range from high tenor to the depths of "you know where". He's possibly the best on the planet! He breaks speakers...seriously! He's from Nederland, TX. Austin Brown - incredible high tenor. He's from Tifton, GA. He was in Gospel music all his young life & has a degree in musical theater! Rob Lundquist - silky smooth tenor who can also "growl" with the best when doing R & B. He's from Minnesota. Adam Rupp - championship beat boxer/vocal percussionist & whatever vocal instrument he needs to imitate, especially vocal harmonica. He co-founded Home Free in 2000 with his brother, Chris Rupp, who left to pursue a solo career & other endeavors in 2016. Any videos BEFORE 2016 will have Chris in them & he'll either be wearing a hat or cap or his "hairless head"! He's also from Minnesota. Adam Chance (called "Chance" to avoid confusion with 2 Adams) - baritone but also sings bass (when Tim is singing tenor) or tenor. He replaced Chris Rupp when he left & will be in all the videos AFTER 2016.. He's from SE Alabama near Mobile. These guys are not only THE most talented a cappella group, they're kind, humble, generous & respectful of others & they can be serious or as goofy as can be but their vocal talents never suffer! That's why we "Home Fries" love them so much & are so loyal! Hope you'll continue to react to Home Free!
Tim has a 5+ octave range and Chance has a 4+ octave range. Rob, Austin and Adam have ranges too. All of the guys "beatbox" to some extent. Example: in the "Fishing in the Dark / Boondocks" mash up it's actually Austin who does Nomonica (Harmonica without a Harmonica). You've reacted to Dimash and know other artists with range. I also strongly suggest So Hyang. There are so many for her but most start with "Bridge Over Troubled Water". She's an artist who survived cancer that prevented her and her husband from having children. She passed up opportunities for commercial success and sings for God. Her voice soars. You may also wish to react to the Amazing Grace cover by Pentatonix. They are also acapella. I agree with you re: simple video's preferably with nature. God is the most amazing builder out there and seeing the magnitude of his work in conjunction with the gift he's given these performers to connect with a song is a big thing. Music is in the ears that hear, the heart, mind, and soul that feels. Music transcends language. Remember: Love is Choice, Faith is Acceptance, together Love and Faith are Trust which is Respect and finally there is Hope which is Understanding. Choose to Accept others for who they are. Trust they will Respect you the same way and finally Understand that, with God, you are Never alone and there is always Hope. God Bless and Take Care All.
I'd like to make a note on Adam Rupp, He has a beautiful tenor voice. His singing voice is often over looked. Oddly enough, he was never supposed to be the beat boxer, Chris was, but they were joking around and they suggested Adam do it and he has been doing it ever since. ^.^
Austin Brown, the tenor with the last verse, his daddy was a singer in a Southern Gospel Quartet, that toured the South and sang at churches every week, in the Summer when school was out, Austin would tour with them as a teen and learned to sing. They have a lot of secular music, but they have some incredible Christmas time ones that are simply incredible...Oh Holy Night (has former group member in it) Silent Night, Angels We Have Heard on High, Do you hear what I hear....and funny one that came out last year is a cover of a 1967 Stevie Wonder song, What Christmas Means to Me, it'll be a chance to see them being funny (which they are - they never take themselves too seriously), and their serious addition last year, Mary did you know. Now about the group, Adam Chance is just called Chance by the fans to avoid confusion. About Tim, he has a 5-octave voice range...Chance has a 3-octave range and takes over bass when Tim goes to his higher range. I'd like for you to react to a few of their secular/pop songs they have done collabs with legends like Kenny Rogers on a Christmas themed gospel song called Children go where I send thee, and also with the Oak Ridge Boys on Beautiful Star of Bethlehem...warning it's real southern gospel, but they shine the Gospel of Jesus !!!
Great one's Kevin! He just might see a little and feel a little of the Holy Ghost from Austin on Beautiful Star of Bethlehem with Jeffrey East and The Oak Ridge Boy's.
@@louisetemples7011 yes ma'am, I just love Jeffrey and forgot to include him, and I apologize to him if happens to read this thread. I have so much respect for him & his music. I still get a big smile when I posted about "People" should win the Grammy for record of the year, which I still think it was. Also I love that Home Free & Jeffrey made a point that that song & video were to be about diversity, tolerance & inclusiveness - all things Home Free has been picketed for because they stand for those principles we are all God's children, but the Westboro Baptist Church & others have harassed folks & Home Free. I know who is right in this fight of ideas and I stand for the guys whose motto it has become "let's just be good to others". Truly one reason I am so loyal to them. I just wish I had the financial resources to be a patron right now.
@ Kevin Clements You shouldn't apologize at all! You are a wealth of information and we appreciate you a lot! We who enjoy commenting and love giving info to reactor's know that you can't remember all that is in our minds to say at that perfect opportunity. Keep on keeping on! I can't be on Patreon as much as I would love too either! It'll be ok!♥️
@@louisetemples7011 thanks Louise, I knowbi have snapped a couple of times at folks, hut I've been under a tremendous financial strain for the last 2 years since my business collapsed due to Covid and its been a struggle just to keep a roof over my head & food on the table and my electric on and internet on. People have no idea the stress it's been.
These men are certainly God’s choir. He blessed them with the voices of the angels and sent them here to remind us that He is still there and watching over us.
Thank you for showing that it’s a FREE gift of God that anyone can have, if you just believe on Jesus! Praise the Lord for the FREE gift of Jesus, that you are saved, sealed, and sanctified and Heaven bound and Rapture ready, that you cannot lose! Hallelujah ✝️🙏🏻💜
I suggested this one on his 1st Home Free reaction. As well as Austin singing Bring Him Home and Chance's Pancho and Lefty. Just so he could could get a taste of their individual talents and how special it is that they stay committed to Home Free.
These guys are so good there likable harmonies on piont and has the best beatboxer IMO THE ONES YOU HAVE REACTED TO ARE AWESOME BUT TO SEE HIS ABILITY TRY MY CHURCH OR LOVE TRAIN by these guys so glad your giong down this rabbit hole enjoy
The actual five members of HF are; Tim Faust (superbass/Texas), Rob Lundquist (Tenor/teddy bear/beard/Minnesota), Austin Brown (High Tenor/skinny jeans/Georgia), Adam Chance (called Chance/Baritone/Bass/Alabama, and Adam Rupp (one of the original founders/world champion beatboxers/Minnesota). The "added" singer here is a buddy of theirs, well known singer, Peter Hollens.
Home Free also has several Sacred Christmas Songs on RUclips, including "O Holy Night", "Angels We Have Heard on High", "Do You Hear What I Hear", and "Mary Did You Know." Each performance is a masterpiece.
Yes, Bill, you are correct!! Each of the songs/videos you mentioned is a masterpiece❣️ Pastor, please listen to them even though it’s not Christmas. If you don’t react to them, please listen and watch for your own edification - they are pure joy❣️
THANK YOU for sharing the Word of God at the end of your reactions. The world needs to hear this. Our works are but filthy rags before the Lord…BUT by His grace we are saved!
The beauty is in the blessings.... Their talent for music. It shows through their happiness to doing what they love, singing! It is a sin to waste any gift that God has blessed us with, and this group of decent fun loving talented down to earth performers show us why.
God gives us gifts as you know. The most precious cant be touched. They will be felt in the heart and the soul touched in the most amazing ways. Have a blessed day and may we always pay it foward for the betterment of our world and those in it.
So glad I discovered your uplifting channel and glad you discovered Home Free. What you see is what you get. Incredibly talented men that are the real deal good guys. Their simplicity is so powerful. They need only their voices. Their are other great a Capella groups, but only one Home Free. Happily subscribed and anxious to follow your Home Free journey.
They are not all Christian. One, I believe converted to Judiism but they all stand for peace, love, respect and acceptance which is God's message after all. Brothers in Arms and Everybody Walkin This Land are two examples of songs that bring that message across through the music.
Exactly, what is not to love about them. They have had their fair share of haters over the years though. Westboro Baptist Church picketed them for their stand on marriage equality and the bigots didn't like their response to George Floyd's murder with their release of Everybody Walkin This Land. Tim added a message at the end of the video and it received some hate from some so-called fans. It made me love them even more.
Look and Live showed up in my recommendations because I am a Home Fry. Appreciate your reactions and recognition of not only the talent of the group but also the evidence of the personal experience behind their performance. Their catalog is extensive in all genres. Enjoy this rabbit hole!
Home Free has been friends with Peter Hollens for a long time; Peter is primarily a solo artist but collaborates with Home Free or the individual fellas quite often. Peter is the 6th vocalist in this video. (And getting to hear Adam Rupp's (the incomparable beatboxer) sweet tenor singing is a real treat too❣️) Home Free does an amazing job at brilliantly simple--but still entertaining--videos. I highly recommend "My Country 'Tis of Thee" and "Man of Constant Sorrow".
Peter and HF work well together! The vocals are phenomenal! Amen Pastor James ! You’ve summed up how HF sings every song ! They comfort home fries 🍟 💯 % !
Welcome to being a "Home Fry" I watch many of the boy's first reactions. Yours is one of the most emotional understandings as to what the talent that God has given these men. They are good boys that love to sing and use the tools God has given them. Keep following down the Home Free Rabbit hole. Keep following and you will really understand there true talent is. God Bless and keep following.
Home Free is the real deal. I first discovered them during the pandemic and they saved me. They are incredible singers. Peter Hollens is also an a cappella singer and has his own channel and makes tremendous music and has collaborated with Home Free other times and he loves to sing with Tim Foust. Tim Foust is the bass with a 5 octave range so he’s unusual in that he can sing super low and then sing up in the tenor range. Home Free is a country vocal band but sing all genres. I’m not a huge country fan either but these guys are different. Their beatboxer is amazing so you don’t miss the music and they did have one band change - Chris Rupp (not in this video) is the brother and founding members of Home Free. He’s in videos prior to 2016 and usually wears a ball cap or cowboy hat. He left and Adam Chance joined (short dark beard). We call him Chance so as not to confuse him with Adam Rupp. They all take the lead depending on the song. They also write and sing their own songs and have a wonderful sense of humor and don’t mind being goofy. If you love bass, try Brothers in Arms, Helplessly Hoping, I Can’t Outrun You, O Holy Night, Children Go Where I Send Thee. So many good songs. Love your channel and I subscribed!😀
I keep coming back to your reactions, thank you for the wisdom! And home free! I'm sure you've done How Great Thou Art I need to find it in your library. I count my blessings all day everyday and you are one of them thank you so much!
Tim Foust is the bass and he has a five octave range. Petter Hollens is the tenor who joined the group on this song. Home Free is the best vocal group I have heard in 60 years they do such rich harmonies in every song they do.
Other favorites covered by Home Free... "Angels We Have Heard On High" "Do You Hear What I Hear" "Mary Did You Know" "Oh Holy Night" ...and MANY more. Just can't get enough of these guys.
I always say that a song can be sung so well in such beautiful voices, but for me it is only perfect when it reaches not only my ears but also my heart and soul. With Home Free you no longer need other groups. It doesn't matter what song, what genre, Home Free will make something of it. All different voices, but still one. And the collaboration with Peter Hollens is really amazing😉If there should be a 6th member at Home Free, it should be Peter Hollens haha. But I see what you mean about the video. So simple, yet so powerful. I don't need too much show. You can be Home Free in the same clothes as the previous video. And that makes Home Free even more perfect for me
Yes,Tim Foust has a 5+ octave range. I saw them live a couple days ago. They sound exactly the same as they do in the video. My granddaughter and I met them. What humble,down to earth men with good values. They engage their fans and truly love what they are doing. They love their families. They value their fans. It is rare to find these qualities today.
Yes, I am calmed and bolstered by all songs of faith put out by Home Free. Thank you also, for ministering to me. Home Free has a long list of diverse songs of many genres. I am certain they will carve out a little space in your heart with their collective talents. They do not hide their country roots and are proud citizens. Good music, no matter the genre,.... is and always will be,..... Good Music.
Hello Pastor James .. :) this song my mother and I sang before she passed .. it was the only one she could remember through the fog of dementia... no matter who sings it brings me to tears .. ❤️❤️ I miss my mother but she is in a better place
Thankyou Pastor James. So glad to meet you. One of my favorites is a collaboration between Tim Foust and Chris Rupp called "Long Black Train". Please give it a listen. 🙏❤️🙏
Yes Tim thousand ate octave range and uses it amazingly! Chance and Adam do bass too. Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole! I have been a home fry for years and years they're phenomenal live. You must see How Great Thou Art and My Church! You're going to be blown away and become a Home Fry.
You might want to give a listen to Home Free's version of Bridge over Troubled Water. Peter Hollens and Tim Foust are singing. The scenery is gorgeous and the singing is amazing! Tim's voice is incredible in this song.
Great reaction brother I love seeing other people's reaction and facial expressions the first time they hear these guys. People from all walks of life are simply amazed, astonished and bewildered with the talent of these men. Pastor, if you decide to listen to their secular side, you will truly see the talent of theses men. My I recommend Brothers in Arms. It's truly a showing of the bass voice. Also listen to May Day which is a cover of a song originally by Cam. This song is going to make you rethink everything you know about the human voice and the range and vocals of Home Free.
Tim Foust - Bass - 5 octave range (Born in Texas, lives in Tennessee) . Rob Lundquist - Tenor - Home Free Teddy Bear (Lives in Minnesota Adam Rupp - Beat boxer - He swallowed a drum kit and much more - Lives in Minnesota Austin Brown - High tenor - Home Free Heart throb (Born in Georgia, lives in Tennessee) Chance (Adam Chance) - Baritone/Bass - (Born in Florida, moved to Arkansas and lives in California)
I know I am blown away by Home Free myself. My favorite group ever! Please listen to their song, Mayday. You will be blown away by their voices. Also, if you haven't already listen to their song, In The Blood.
Loved your reaction... I found you because you reacted to Home Free.. I follow everything they do.. I agree with what you said about liking the video simple, and Home Free does that with most of their videos.. They use the natural beautiful nature in most of their videos..
There's a LIVE performance of an original called Dreamer. They share the stage with Texas Hill @ the Ryman in Nashville. I feel it's my favorite, because I saw it live LOL.
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole .. You are now officially a Home Fry! They are awesome. One of my favorites is Mary did you know. Although it is a Christmas song it is one I enjoy and it really is a powerful and moving song.
Rofl Tim covers over 5 octaves with his vocal range. If you watch mayday, one of their covers…. You’ll need to pick your jaw up from the floor. As well Adam Chance is an incredible bass and baritone in his own right, they often switch out for bass lines so one or the other can take a lead part. :). And well ‘when a man loves a woman’. I think is Austin browns biggest jaw drop as well. Rob it’s end of the road and Adam rupp, well everything, but most notably…. Look up his drum solo. It’s like he swallowed a drum kit. The other gentleman they are working with in this is Peter Hollens and incredible singer. His wife is as well. He does another cover with home free called ‘I still haven’t found what I’m looking for’ a u2 cover. It’s amazing.
A good song with a message I love is Home Free's cover of John Mayer's song "In the Blood". The past doesn't have to dictate how you live your life. Beautiful! ♥️
The song is one of my favorites. The first song I heard from Home Free was O' Holy Night. This was the second song. That's all I needed, since then I can't get enough of these talented guys. They are masters of harmonies and the collaboration with Peter Hollens is always perfect. I'm sure you would also enjoy Greensleeves by Peter Hollens and Tim Foust. Another great reaction, thanks!
In The Blood cover by them is 🔥 Home Free are my favorite Acappella group, but also like Pentatonix, Voice Play. Their Christmas songs are amazing O Holy Night, Do You Hear What I Hear, etc. Their concerts are affordable to attend.
Pastor James , you`re absolutely right . They are singing from a relationship with God . They`re not just singing the words and notes without conviction . And I realize it`s not the time of year , but if you get a chance and truly want to hear them sing from their hearts in the most beautiful setting , react to Oh Holy Night . God bless and keep you .
Apologies, this is my 3rd comment. I just keep thinking of things to add. This time I wanted to alert Pastor James to my favorite cover of "Softly and Tenderly".

Hey thank you my friends for these words. I will certainly add this one to my reaction playlist.
When you asked "who's singing right now" ...his name is Peter Hollens! He is from my home state of Oregon & had Home Free sing with him. I am blessed to have had Peter sing at my wedding in 2006!

Thank you so much my friend. I have so much more to learn.
Once again, I say. Angels are men, and these men are proof of that.
Tim Foust is a rare rich basso profundo - deepest of basses - he rattles floors and breaks sounds systems with his low notes and yes he has a 5 octave range up to a high tenor and... he is songwriter too. Adam Chance going by Chance, is the baritone but covers bass when Tim takes lead, Rob Lundquist (beard and glasses) is the lead tenor with a warm soulful voice and Austin Brown is the strong crystal clear high tenor. Adam Rupp is their beat boxer extraordinaire otherwise called "freak of nature" or "living drumkit", he's a tenor but he seldom is singing.

Though there are two "Adams," the original Adam to the group (the beatboxer) still goes by Adam and the second Adam that came along around 2015-16 or so, goes by his last name, Chance.
I’m certain Tim Foust will be the sound we hear when Jesus returns. These gentlemen are no doubt vocal trained by the angels.
I'm addicted too. I even got a 5 yr old who lives. "Elvira". Oakridge Boys sings with them. "Some girls do, too."
Yes Tim Foust is for real. He has a 5 octave range. His voice can go lower and higher than what you have just heard. The 6 person was Peter Hollens who was the arranger and producer of this version and he invited Home Free to sing with him. You will need to add him to your listening of acapella artist.

Tim foust has a solo version of will you still love me/stay. You can see how big of a range the lord has blessed him with. he is truly special
I suggested this one on his 1st Home Free reaction. As well as Austin singing Bring Him Home and Chance's Pancho and Lefty. Just so he could could get a taste of their individual talents and how special it is that they stay committed to Home Free.
Angelic music. The Lord has opened the gates to these men and I love them # HOMEFREE. ❤
These guys are so good there likable harmonies on piont and has the best beatboxer IMO THE ONES YOU HAVE REACTED TO ARE AWESOME BUT TO SEE HIS ABILITY TRY MY CHURCH OR LOVE TRAIN by these guys so glad your giong down this rabbit hole enjoy
This version gives me such chills! Love it!
Hello Lori Peace, how are you doing today??
Absolutely Loved this! Your reaction gave me Sooo much serotonin!!! Thanks!!!
We home fry's love our home free and Peter ❣️❣️❣️🍟🔥
Tim Foust causes a lot of listeners to think they lost their minds! So, Pastor James, you are in good company. This is a fun reaction.
The actual five members of HF are; Tim Faust (superbass/Texas), Rob Lundquist (Tenor/teddy bear/beard/Minnesota), Austin Brown (High Tenor/skinny jeans/Georgia), Adam Chance (called Chance/Baritone/Bass/Alabama, and Adam Rupp (one of the original founders/world champion beatboxers/Minnesota). The "added" singer here is a buddy of theirs, well known singer, Peter Hollens.
Home Free also has several Sacred Christmas Songs on RUclips, including "O Holy Night", "Angels We Have Heard on High", "Do You Hear What I Hear", and "Mary Did You Know." Each performance is a masterpiece.
Yes, Bill, you are correct!! Each of the songs/videos you mentioned is a masterpiece❣️ Pastor, please listen to them even though it’s not Christmas. If you don’t react to them, please listen and watch for your own edification - they are pure joy❣️
THANK YOU for sharing the Word of God at the end of your reactions. The world needs to hear this. Our works are but filthy rags before the Lord…BUT by His grace we are saved!
Okay, Angie, I love your spiritual flame.
Hello Angie Winstead, how are you doing today??
Enjoy your preaching
The beauty is in the blessings.... Their talent for music. It shows through their happiness to doing what they love, singing! It is a sin to waste any gift that God has blessed us with, and this group of decent fun loving talented down to earth performers show us why.
Yes that was Tim he has 5 or 6 octave range insane Adam is second base
You might also enjoy Go Rest High on That Mountain.
You’ll have to look for Peter Hollens and his album. Home Free was a guest of his on this album.
Great reaction!! Home Free is amazing!! Tim has definitely been known for blowing speakers for is low bass notes. The entire group is amazing
God gives us gifts as you know. The most precious cant be touched. They will be felt in the heart and the soul touched in the most amazing ways.
Have a blessed day and may we always pay it foward for the betterment of our world and those in it.
Their version of How Great Thou Art is astonishing.
That was the song that got him hooked 😄
So glad I discovered your uplifting channel and glad you discovered Home Free. What you see is what you get. Incredibly talented men that are the real deal good guys. Their simplicity is so powerful. They need only their voices. Their are other great a Capella groups, but only one Home Free. Happily subscribed and anxious to follow your Home Free journey.
Thank you for your reaction. I love the beautiful simplicity of their performance and their perfect harmonies. They are multitalented!
TY for the respects given to these men and their mad skills vocally
They are not all Christian. One, I believe converted to Judiism but they all stand for peace, love, respect and acceptance which is God's message after all. Brothers in Arms and Everybody Walkin This Land are two examples of songs that bring that message across through the music.
Hmm 🤔 I still love. Thanks for the insight.
Exactly, what is not to love about them. They have had their fair share of haters over the years though. Westboro Baptist Church picketed them for their stand on marriage equality and the bigots didn't like their response to George Floyd's murder with their release of Everybody Walkin This Land. Tim added a message at the end of the video and it received some hate from some so-called fans. It made me love them even more.
Look and Live showed up in my recommendations because I am a Home Fry. Appreciate your reactions and recognition of not only the talent of the group but also the evidence of the personal experience behind their performance. Their catalog is extensive in all genres. Enjoy this rabbit hole!
Hello Deborah, how are you doing??
I keep coming back to this reaction of this song from you! I think your"My Church" !!!! May you and yours be blessed! I know I am.
Church ⛪️😀
Home Free has been friends with Peter Hollens for a long time; Peter is primarily a solo artist but collaborates with Home Free or the individual fellas quite often. Peter is the 6th vocalist in this video. (And getting to hear Adam Rupp's (the incomparable beatboxer) sweet tenor singing is a real treat too❣️)
Home Free does an amazing job at brilliantly simple--but still entertaining--videos. I highly recommend "My Country 'Tis of Thee" and "Man of Constant Sorrow".
All i can say is GOD bless us all amen.thank
you and them !.
Peter and HF work well together! The vocals are phenomenal! Amen Pastor James ! You’ve summed up how HF sings every song ! They comfort home fries 🍟 💯 % !
Welcome to being a "Home Fry" I watch many of the boy's first reactions. Yours is one of the most emotional understandings as to what the talent that God has given these men. They are good boys that love to sing and use the tools God has given them. Keep following down the Home Free Rabbit hole. Keep following and you will really understand there true talent is. God Bless and keep following.
Yes, Tim has an amazing range. Love these talented men and you are correct they are very reverent. You would love their How Great Thou Art.
Home Free is the real deal. I first discovered them during the pandemic and they saved me. They are incredible singers. Peter Hollens is also an a cappella singer and has his own channel and makes tremendous music and has collaborated with Home Free other times and he loves to sing with Tim Foust. Tim Foust is the bass with a 5 octave range so he’s unusual in that he can sing super low and then sing up in the tenor range. Home Free is a country vocal band but sing all genres. I’m not a huge country fan either but these guys are different. Their beatboxer is amazing so you don’t miss the music and they did have one band change - Chris Rupp (not in this video) is the brother and founding members of Home Free. He’s in videos prior to 2016 and usually wears a ball cap or cowboy hat. He left and Adam Chance joined (short dark beard). We call him Chance so as not to confuse him with Adam Rupp. They all take the lead depending on the song. They also write and sing their own songs and have a wonderful sense of humor and don’t mind being goofy. If you love bass, try Brothers in Arms, Helplessly Hoping, I Can’t Outrun You, O Holy Night, Children Go Where I Send Thee. So many good songs. Love your channel and I subscribed!😀
I keep coming back to your reactions, thank you for the wisdom! And home free! I'm sure you've done How Great Thou Art I need to find it in your library. I count my blessings all day everyday and you are one of them thank you so much!
Thanks 🙏🏾 Lori
Tim Foust is the bass and he has a five octave range. Petter Hollens is the tenor who joined the group on this song. Home Free is the best vocal group I have heard in 60 years they do such rich harmonies in every song they do.
I believe these fellas are blessed by God. They are all extraordinarily talented. I love "How Great Thou Art", as well.
Yes 🙌🏾 they are
Young man I enjoyed the reaction!!! And you are correct these gentleman or certainly blessed..
God bless you and yours and God bless the USA
Other favorites covered by Home Free...
"Angels We Have Heard On High"
"Do You Hear What I Hear"
"Mary Did You Know"
"Oh Holy Night"
...and MANY more. Just can't get enough of these guys.
Each one of them have a personal relationship with God! And they give him glory for the gifts that they have received! Some people get all the talent!
Amazing reaction video. Thank you. This, in my opinion, is the BEST rendition of this song!
I think so too.
Tim Foust is the bass but has a 5 octave range. I talk to Austin Brown on occasion and they are all very versatile in their parts they can do.
I always say that a song can be sung so well in such beautiful voices, but for me it is only perfect when it reaches not only my ears but also my heart and soul. With Home Free you no longer need other groups. It doesn't matter what song, what genre, Home Free will make something of it. All different voices, but still one. And the collaboration with Peter Hollens is really amazing😉If there should be a 6th member at Home Free, it should be Peter Hollens haha.
But I see what you mean about the video. So simple, yet so powerful. I don't need too much show. You can be Home Free in the same clothes as the previous video. And that makes Home Free even more perfect for me
Hello Jean, how are you doing?
Yes,Tim Foust has a 5+ octave range. I saw them live a couple days ago. They sound exactly the same as they do in the video. My granddaughter and I met them. What humble,down to earth men with good values. They engage their fans and truly love what they are doing. They love their families. They value their fans. It is rare to find these qualities today.
Really!!! That must have been nice
Yes…
It’s real
It’s a gift
God bless
Check out their cover of Go Rest High on the Mountain, the church session. It's a cover of Vince Gill's original. And is heavenly.
Oh, God in Heaven, do I LOVE this song! Puuuuurdy! Really prefer the Church sessions version best.
My favorite is How Great Thou Art. Thay sing it in the most beautiful way i have ever herd
Bring him Home is a awesome by Matt Shaw..it is soo appropriate with the day we are living in today..God Blesd..Love Chris
Yes, I am calmed and bolstered by all songs of faith put out by Home Free.
Thank you also, for ministering to me.
Home Free has a long list of diverse songs of many genres. I am certain they will carve out a little space in your heart with their collective talents. They do not hide their country roots and are proud citizens. Good music, no matter the genre,.... is and always will be,..... Good Music.
You need to listen to them sing go rest high on that Mountain it goes to the soul.
As the others have said..."that was the bass". Peace, Love!!
I agree with everything you said . I have been a fan of Home Free for years. Great reaction
We home fry's love our home free 🍟❣️💯
One of the best renditions of the hundreds I have heard/sung.
Hello Pastor James .. :) this song my mother and I sang before she passed .. it was the only one she could remember through the fog of dementia... no matter who sings it brings me to tears .. ❤️❤️ I miss my mother but she is in a better place
Awe truly. Thanks for sharing. Very nice of you.
This was my very 1st Home Free song I heard over 4 years ago. I have been hooked ever since! These guys are beyond amazing!
Please react to GO REST HIGH ON THAT MOUNTAIN, THE CHURCH SESSIONS, not the official video, it brings me to tears. Love your channel ♥️
Amazing Grace is my favorite song and no one does it better than Home Free. I agree with your reaction.
Pastor a wonderful song I love it is sung by Chris Rupp. And it is called going home..very nice
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL
So happy to find your channel. Also, Home Free is my favorite group - simple - yet POWERFUL!!! They are absolutely THE BEST!!!
Love your reaction! Welcome to the Home Fries! It's such fun. Bottomline, whatever they do, it's well done by pure talent.
These men are talented and reverent.
Oh Holy Night! Next please. They ARE awesome singing anything.
I really believe you're right about these guys. God given talent
you'll love home frees how great thou art
Thankyou Pastor James. So glad to meet you. One of my favorites is a collaboration between Tim Foust and Chris Rupp called "Long Black Train". Please give it a listen. 🙏❤️🙏
Yes Tim thousand ate octave range and uses it amazingly! Chance and Adam do bass too. Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole! I have been a home fry for years and years they're phenomenal live. You must see How Great Thou Art and My Church! You're going to be blown away and become a Home Fry.
You might want to give a listen to Home Free's version of Bridge over Troubled Water. Peter Hollens and Tim Foust are singing. The scenery is gorgeous and the singing is amazing! Tim's voice is incredible in this song.
They killed it. one of the best ever. Home Free brought me here and I will stay with it. Tim with the 5 oct.range.
Great reaction brother
I love seeing other people's reaction and facial expressions the first time they hear these guys. People from all walks of life are simply amazed, astonished and bewildered with the talent of these men. Pastor, if you decide to listen to their secular side, you will truly see the talent of theses men. My I recommend Brothers in Arms. It's truly a showing of the bass voice. Also listen to May Day which is a cover of a song originally by Cam. This song is going to make you rethink everything you know about the human voice and the range and vocals of Home Free.
Okay I’ll check it out too. Thanks

I know I am blown away by Home Free myself. My favorite group ever! Please listen to their song, Mayday. You will be blown away by their voices. Also, if you haven't already listen to their song, In The Blood.
Tim has a 5 octaves range. Every time I hear Tim hit those low notes it gives me chills. It’s all about the bass!
Wonderful reaction young man God bless you and yours and God bless the USA
Loved your reaction... I found you because you reacted to Home Free.. I follow everything they do.. I agree with what you said about liking the video simple, and Home Free does that with most of their videos.. They use the natural beautiful nature in most of their videos..
So glad you are here. They are an amazing of guys.
There's a LIVE performance of an original called Dreamer. They share the stage with Texas Hill @ the Ryman in Nashville. I feel it's my favorite, because I saw it live LOL.
Superb reaction to an American folk classic! Much appreciation for your respectiveful content and no "taking the Lord's name in vain." 😊
Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole .. You are now officially a Home Fry! They are awesome. One of my favorites is Mary did you know. Although it is a Christmas song it is one I enjoy and it really is a powerful and moving song.
These guys are at the top of the tier in their field.
Rofl Tim covers over 5 octaves with his vocal range. If you watch mayday, one of their covers…. You’ll need to pick your jaw up from the floor. As well Adam Chance is an incredible bass and baritone in his own right, they often switch out for bass lines so one or the other can take a lead part. :). And well ‘when a man loves a woman’. I think is Austin browns biggest jaw drop as well. Rob it’s end of the road and Adam rupp, well everything, but most notably…. Look up his drum solo. It’s like he swallowed a drum kit. The other gentleman they are working with in this is Peter Hollens and incredible singer. His wife is as well. He does another cover with home free called ‘I still haven’t found what I’m looking for’ a u2 cover. It’s amazing.
A good song with a message I love is Home Free's cover of John Mayer's song "In the Blood". The past doesn't have to dictate how you live your life. Beautiful! ♥️
The song is one of my favorites. The first song I heard from Home Free was O' Holy Night. This was the second song. That's all I needed, since then I can't get enough of these talented guys. They are masters of harmonies and the collaboration with Peter Hollens is always perfect. I'm sure you would also enjoy Greensleeves by Peter Hollens and Tim Foust. Another great reaction, thanks!
This was a great reaction. I love watching people hearing their amazing abilities for the first time. Sounds like you're a Home Fry in the making.
Another favorite of mine is “Go Rest High on That Mountain”
Thank you for your reaction to this amazing song. Your appreciation of this brought many tears of joy to my eyes! What a blessing! God bless! 😊👏👏👏
Awe, and plus they have so much joy to my heart.
Thank you for doing Home Free! ^i^
In The Blood cover by them is 🔥 Home Free are my favorite Acappella group, but also like Pentatonix, Voice Play. Their Christmas songs are amazing O Holy Night, Do You Hear What I Hear, etc. Their concerts are affordable to attend.
Hello Angela Barazzone, how are you doing??
Pastor James , you`re absolutely right . They are singing from a relationship with God . They`re not just singing the words and notes without conviction . And I realize it`s not the time of year , but if you get a chance and truly want to hear them sing from their hearts in the most beautiful setting , react to Oh Holy Night . God bless and keep you .
Peter Holland has his oun channel with alot of amazing songs. He teams up with different members of Home Free. And the result's are fantastic.
