They've played the Opry about 20 times (as Austin said) and yet they have not gotten nominated to join as members of the Opry. Why not?" When will a cappella be accepted?
There was a question about Waylon Jennings I believe, and it was explained that there are strict annual performing requirements in order to be inducted.(26 shows per year).
They aren’t part of the Nashville corporate machine. They won’t be nominated for anything nor will they get radio airplay, except maybe a few truly independent stations. Sadly, that’s how it is now.
Same here! I cried too. It's gonna be a sad day for everyone when he plays his last show. I really hope they live stream it for everyone who isnt gonna be there. Its not gonna be same without him.
@mikahlabridges6473 ... here's a thought. If he doesn't value the privilege of being a member of the group, then it's possibly better for everyone involved if he moves on to his greener pastures. I hope he will land on his feet and take off like a rocket. Home Free will be fine. Better than fine as they always are. Austin is getting exactly what he wants.
@justkaron Of course, but it doesn't take away from what was expressed. It's still sad for the of us who are particularly fans of Austin's voice in Home Free, but we also support him and fully understand that it's the best for everyone at this point. And of course it won't be the same without him, it would be ignorant to think it will be. There's of course also a fear that the new sound that comes with the change of a member as distinct as Austin, or any of the other guys, will not appeal to some of us. It's natural and normal.
Change happens 🤷♀️😘….. Home Free will always be Home Free because they are incredibly talented …. Nashville hasn’t quite caught up with their sound but no doubt they will !!! Austin will be fine and chime in on many occasions ! Hats and hearts to all of you 🎩❤🎩❤🎩❤🎩❤🎩❤ And to the interviewer as well 👒❤
Hi, it’s only me Louise from across the oceans in England ~ another video including Home Free what a lovely surprise on a Monday. I absolutely love these guys ~ there vocal range and abilities are absolutely totally and utterly amazing - Adams now got short hair again,however he has his hair done he always looks amazing ~ Xxx Xxx
Thanks for this interview, so good seeing them, so proud of them all, look at Adam sporting the short hair, ( thanks for donating), excited to hear of a new album this year, and of course we will all miss Austin, but i wish him the very best at home with his lovely wife. I love home free
Awesome video. I agree about Adam donating his hair. That is so great! I am a little sad about Austin leaving. I am happy for him though. I only became of Home Free less than a year ago, and love playing stuff when Chris was in it too, so I am looking forward to listening to Home Free's new member when he/she starts.
Love these guys! Hate to see Austin leave, but I believe Home Free has so much talent that it will survive I'm sure of it. In fact, a good candidate to add to the group is Peter Hollens. Can't wait to see what's in store for my favorite a cappella band.
Thank you for sharing. Always good to see and hear the boys. Adam cut his hair, so nice of him to donate it. Thought maybe Austin would do the same. Bittersweet for me about Austin. Just hope they find another diamond in the rough! 😃🤩
This interview was always going to be rather tense I fèel. The best of both worlds for the group and fans would have been,2 months on the road followed by 2 months at home.then every one would have been happy.So sad that this decision has been made.
0:30 well I happen to have a playlist of times Home Free has been on the Opry over the years right here w this link! I think its between 15 or 20 times. I think there is 1 or 2 that dont exist anywhere (but the opry archive 🤞) The playlist: ru-vid.com/group/PLTi5A2LbHt4TSCjHo6CENcAVCaSb1XBa0&si=-rNFWtmqTtz2SWF7
Noticed how Chance looked down and away the entire time Austin was commenting about his leaving HF. I am not sure he was convinced that this was a good decision for Home Free's future, or he was being just melancholy about Austin leaving. Either way, HF is professional enough to find a great replacement for Austin, as Chance was replacing Chris.
In Chance new video which he said his favorite people are in I never once saw Austin or Amberley. All the other Homefree people and wives except Adam's but she is never in any videos.
@@loriehurne482 Ericha does appear occasionally. I don't see her enough to totally recognize her like I do Jenika and Olena but I'm sure that's Ericha sitting next to Adam at the bar at the end of their Friends in Low Places video.
@@nightthornkvala94132 Ericha does Appear in some of homefree earlier videos I can think of 3 she is in and a couple of home away home. But it doesn't seem odd to not see her in a video.
Re Chance ... in all the videos he quickly glances st the camera and looks away. He doesnt play the camera like Tim and Austin hes not an "out there" person
You can tell Tim and Austin are the extroverts. All of them will occasionally say something but Rob tends to be more quiet in interviews and you can tell that Chance and Adam are not the talkers of the group.
