Not quite. Just one person. The baseline, the jaw harp you here at the beginning and at the end is done by a separate person. You see him at the end of the video.
The first singer is Austin Brown with the voice of an angel. Second fella with beard and glasses is Rob Lundquist....he also has a beautiful voice. The very last guy you see is Adam Chance...aka Chance . The bass singer is Tim Foust and he can go to the basement and beyond....just fooling around in this song. Lastly is Adam Rupp..known as the Freak of nature. He's a beat boxer, drum kit, and dj. All together you get five guys who enjoy what they do and are like brothers to each other. They can sing anything from pop, R&B, gospel, to country. They love to have fun and a lot of their videos show that, but when the song calls for a serious theme they do that too. They've done videos with a lot of country groups....including Kenny Rogers and Alabama. You'll love them if you give them a chance. They have a huge following. Great reaction and Thanks. Gonna subscribe...so will be checking back in.
A traditional American folk song first published in 1913, first recorded in 1927. Bob Dylan recorded this song back in 1961 for his debut album. Joan Baez had recorded it a year earlier. Rod Stewart recorded it later. It came back into circulation after it's use in 2000's "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" film.
Do you know, I watched the movie years ago and remember loving the soundtrack, but for whatever reason, never investigated. I'm so very glad to have found them now!
I've discovered so many fascinating things on RU-vid during this pandemic, reactors such as yourself for example . And the music has been amazing. I discovered Pentatonix a while ago now and that discovery led me to Home Free. I haven't been listening to them for that long but they blow me away every song. I'm sure more experienced 'Home Fries' as their fans are called, though now I can probably call me one too, will fill in a lot of missing blanks for you, but a few of their songs I can't seem to get enough of, this one, Mayday, Hillbilly Bones, Ring of Fire Nd another song they are a huge part of though another accapella singer did most of the arranging for, but the cover of Still Haven't Cound What I'm Looking for by U2. This song in particular makes me all weepy in a good reason I can't really explain. I highly recommend any of these songs Home Free sing. Dive into their musical world and you will be awed, I promise.
Wow. I’ll have to look him up. The tenor range and all the voices upward from there always get all the attention and accolades. And I have been impressed from time to time, too. But I love singers that can hit all the notes in the basement. And there is just nothing sexier than a good looking man with a clear, full, double-bass voice.
@@Rippypoo Tim is incredible...there are fan videos on youtube from concerts where he's blown out speakers...search bar just type in Tim Foust vocal range
I often go down the rabbit hole watching and listening to them only to emerge hous later only because I've drained the battery and its 2:30 am and I have to get up in 4 hours or so.
HOLY SHIT BATMAN!!! This is entirely new to me and I am blown away dude. Fuck. I really, REALLY don't do country music (I'm not American, it just leaves me stone cold most of the time, it's not a common genre over here, at all) but hot diggity damn, these boys are fire! A-fricking-mazing, the human voice being used in so many ways and produced to utter perfection. Thanks to the folks who recommended and thanks to you, Jay, for bringing them to my attention. Seriously, it is rare I find a new artist who truly blows me away with ability and pure musicality and this brought it home. Damn fine work. Wow!
I’m a Brit and followed them for years they don’t only do country they can sing the phone book during lockdown they released a song every couple of weeks I recommend to check them out.
They call themselves "Country A Capella," but they are so much more than that. I know a lot of people, that say they're not big on country music, but love Home Free. Enjoy the ride.
Never heard this song untl I started watching The Voice. A 15 yr. old kid named. Sawyer Fredricks sang it for his audition. As soon as I heard him, I said he's gonna win this show and he did. He also plays the guitar. Please Please Please listen to his version. He went back too the farm and still lives the simple life. He writes his own music. Made an album. So talented. Look him up.
I've been dying for you to get to these guys!!! I know you really like Boyz II Men so you'll have to check out Home Free covering End of the Road! First guy was Austin Brown, tenor Second guy/ beard and glasses was Rob Lundquist, tenor Adam Rupp is the beatboxer (2 time world champ, I believe) Tim Foust is the bass Adam Chance is the baritone that made those twangy sounds you heard (jaw harp)
Welcome to Home Free fandom!! They are absolutely amazing!! The lead tenor with the straw hat is Austin Brown (high tenor). Rob Lundquist (full beard guy with glasses) is 2nd tenor. Adam Rupp, is the beatboxer (and sound effects guy) is remaining co-founder of the group. Tim Foust is the bass, and Adam “Chance” (goes by “Chance” so there’re no confusion with Adam Rupp) is the guy in the back and at the end doing the jaw harp sound. He is a bass/baritone. I saw how surprised you were and how much you liked them and appreciate their talent and you noticed how cohesive they are as a group! If you want to react to more, you’ll probably see a jump in your subs since the “Home Fries” (fan base nickname) will find you and jump on board here. Check out “End of the Road” cover, and maybe an original song of theirs called “Dive Bar Saints”.
There are NO instruments except their voices! Truly GREAT!! BTW, welcome to the rabbit hole. You will have to listen to ALL their stuff now. And it's ALL this good!
Bro surprised you took this long to find Home Free, but now that you are here welcome to the Home Fries, you are just getting started and I am excited to watch this journey, it is ALL AMAZING, spiritual, country, R&B enjoy the ride.
@@miamidolphinsfan sorry, he was the original bass for Pentatonix, he is also featured in Ring of Fire with Home Free also check out him and Tim with Peter Hollins in Misty Mountains, Avi copland has gone out on his own and has several songs on youtube.
It's a good sign when you don't want it to end. Home Free is phenomenal, very talented and versatile. I hope you will listen to a few of their songs before you do Mayday so you will enjoy the impact.
They aren’t all about bluegrass (although they do that beautifully) but they are pretty amazing on everything they do. I haven’t found a song I don’t like yet.
Welcome to the basket. Home Free's fans are called Home Fries. They have over 100 videos if covers and originals. Enjoy them, but hold off watching the song Mayday until you know them better!! And Tim Foust, the bass, you ain't heard nothing yet.... keep doing what you're doing, it is great to see you react!!!
Welcome to the universe of Home Free. Your subs are going to take a significant jump with all the Home Fries that come on board. Please check out End of the Road or Everybody Walking this Land. Great reaction - Thanks!!!
YAY! I love Home Free. You gotta see more. Since it's Christmas time, I highly recommend Do you hear what I hear. Adam Rupp, the beatboxer, did the arrangement on it and it is fantastic.
Home Free's latest Christmas album out last week . Check out Warmest Winter, Cold Hard Cash (for Christmas) and Christmas in LA. All written by group members. From an earlier album O Holy night is really worth the listen. Here for your HF journey.
I was waiting for you get to Home free! Brilliant!please do more ?! Try end of the road ( boys to men cover ) or the butts remix for a laugh!,there newest one ,fulsome prison blues or everyone walking this land
"Fishing In The Dark/Boondocks" is an older song, but it's GOOD. *EDIT:* Patrol Gaming (another RU-vidr) said the same thing. In fact, his words were: "Now the only thing I found wrong with that song... Um, it only went on for three minutes and 41 seconds. That's shite. That should go for at least ten minutes."
Too short, indeed! So many more amazing Home Free covers and originals to do. They can all sing, including the beatboxer, but he prefers to keep the rhythm and has won multiple world beatboxing championships; they call him their Freak of Nature.
Speaking about the bass, check out their cover of “all about the bass” - it’s wonderful and hilarious! I love “Elvira” (a collaboration with the original artists, the Oak Ridge Boys), and “Can’t Stop the Feeling.”
No help, it is all them. High tenor. Austin Brown Tenor Rob Lindquest beard Baritone Adam Chance Bass. Tim Foust 6 octive range has broken 2 sound systems to date Adam Rupp. Beatbox genius ,2 time world champion.
Pentatonix and Home Free are very friendly. Pentatonix started in 2011 and Home free in 2000. They both won their respective years in the singoff. Both very amazing but totally different groups. Tim The bass Foust has a crazy range and loves to show it. Adam the freak of nature Rupp aka the beatboxer is just that a freak of nature. Austin the angel voice Brown aka the tenor has a beautiful well rounded voice. Rob the beard guy Lundquist is a beautiful soul with an equally matched voice. Chris the boss man Rupp aka the cowboy hat guy founded home free with his brother Adam before leaving for his solo career. Adam chance aka chance the bass/baritone can do it all and fits in perfectly. Some recommendations.... Covers. ... Man of constant sorrow End of the road Everybody walking this land Your man Butts remix Do you hear what I hear? The Gambler How great thou art? Folsom prison blues ****Mayday but wait until you know them and their voices**** Originals.... What we need is love. Warmest winter Catch me if you can With other singers/groups.... W/Kenny Rogers Children, go where I send thee W/Oakridge boys Elvira W/Avi Kaplan Ring of Fire W/Alabama Christmas in Dixie Enjoy the wormhole to become a Home Fry aka Home Free fans
You will find that many of the Pentatonix fans (Pentaholics) are also Home Free fans (Home Fries). I found Home Free after I found Pentatonix and I think of Home Free as the Pentatonix of country, gospel and rock. They also write their own stuff. The bass is Tim Foust and he is a force of nature. Avi Kaplan, the bass from Pentatonix, did a collab with Home Free - they did Ring of Fire. :o) It was intriguing to listen to the differences between the two stunning basses.
Home Free is a phenomenal a cappella group. They come from country roots but create covers and originals from many genres. For something from their country roots check out "Hillbilly Bone" and "My Church". For something up tempo "Can't Stop The Feeling". For a laugh their "Butts Remix". A fun classic their cover of The O'Jays "Love Train". For Christmas "Do You Hear What I Hear" and "O' Holy Night". They also had a great holiday collaboration with the late Kenny Rogers "Children, Go Where I Send Thee". And don't miss their rendition of "How Great Thou Art", stunning harmonies amid a spectacular backdrop. Anyone with a soul will be moved. Thanks for your reactions!
Welcome to HOME FREE HOME FREE is a county A Capella band that does more than country. Tim Foust, the bass, Adam Rupp, the beatboxer, Adam Chance (Chance) is the baritone/bass, Rob Lundquist, tenor and Austin Browm high tenor make up the voices of angels. PLEASE listen to more.. If I know my Home Free family well, they have already given you suggestions of music. LOL Thanks for the reaction
Tim Foust is widely considered one of finest basses in the world today. He has a 5+ octave range! And by the way. HOME FREE won the talent show on NBC-“The Sing-Off” the year AFTER Pentatonix!! And they play 240+ shows a year.
This song (with full instrumental accompaniment) was featured in the movie, O Brother, Where Art Thou? You should watch it. It’s pretty funny. It’s supposed to take place in the 1930s And throughout it they feature “ok’ timey music” based on gospel and blue grass.
Need to checkout their newest video a cover of the Johnny Cash song "Folsom Prison Blues" and then "In The Blood" a John Mayer cover. You can spend hours watching their videos on You Tube and not see the same one twice.
Home Free and Pentatonix together have reinvented and revolutionized a capella music. Pentatonix is the only a capella group to ever win a Grammy, and they have done it three times. They both won back-to-back seasons of the NBC series 'The Sing Off' and afterwards became friends. While PTX mainly occupies the pop lane and HF the country side, they are both extremely versatile and traverse several genres. Avi, the former bass for PTX, joined them for a version of the Johnny Cash classic 'Ring of Fire' in which he and Tim have a kind of bass battle that is mind-blowing. If you want to see how HF does in other genres there are two must-sees. Their cover of 'End of the Road' by Boyz 2 Men and their rendition of Cam's 'Mayday' which shows off Tim's incredible range.
If you’ve seen the movie “ Oh Brother Where Art Though?” then you heard it there first. It’s the Soggy Bottom Boys. But this version you reacted to is really good.
This was the first video I ever saw of Home Free and I was instantly in love with them. I was like "Who are these guys and why have I never heard of them?" That was 2 years ago. I now have all their cd's and have seen them in live concert. They are amazing and just keep getting better! They have a lot of video's on RU-vid. Enjoy!
The guy with the beard is Rob Lundquist, low tenor. The cute ginger is Austin Brown, high tenor. Adam Chance is the baritone, who was doing the juice harp sound that was running in the background. Adam Rupp is the master beatboxer playing harmonica without a harmonica. And Tim Foust is the bass with a 5+ octave range. As you do more of their songs, you will find out how versatile their voices are. Enjoy the ride!
Thank you , thank you, thank you for reacting to this song- I’ve watched this video so many times that I finally had to stop, and you gave me a good excuse to watch one more time! More Home Free and Pentatonix, please!
Everything they sing is touched with magic! Great reaction, love watching your face. Their version of Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For featuring Peter Hollens, is utterly gorgeous, somehow a 350 strong virtual choir is included! It's a beautiful U2 song and am sure you'd love it. Stay safe and blessings 😏🎅
Love these guys so much! Probably have heard this song a thousand times. Both from the movie and from Home Free. Truly amazing talent. Love your reaction Jay! All of their songs are great.
my band, i'm going to my 5th show next March, they are incredible, i go to every show when they're nearby....Austin, Chance, Tim, Rob, Adam, Adam is the beatboxer, and Tim is the lowest bass ever
The buzzy sound at the very beginning and in the background - the jaw harp - was made by Adam Chance (he goes by Chance to be differentiated from Adam Rupp, the beatboxer.) He was in the back left corner in the dark vest. Baritone who goes bass when Tim, the basso profoundo, sings. Tim has a 5 octave range. Austin, lead in this song, is a counter tenor, Rob with the dark hair and beard, is tenor. They won season 4 of The Sing Off. This is a rabbit hole you are going to love!
J, thanks buddy for finally getting to these awesome guys. If your planning on doing some Xmas reactions PLEASE cover their releases of Do you hear what I hear and O Holy Night. You will be blown away, literally. Thanks again
I forget if I have that film, but I know I have the soundtrack. Great film. Excellent soundtrack. I used to play it at my workstation across from my coworker (Indian-American), but we would rarely get to the last track. My coworker would start laughing, then he would get me laughing. Then we’d both be laughing so hard that neither of us could concentrate on our work. So I’d have to plug my headphones in and play the rest just for me. Sometimes I would sing along with the little girls singing “In The Highways (I’ll be working somewhere for my Lord)”. Then I’d look across the aisle, and he would be bent over, half falling off his chair. Man, that was a fun time. BE SAFE. Peace…
Welcome to a home Free! They’re my current favorite group. I especially like Ring of Fire, End of the Road and Can’t Stop the Feeling. All are great. Enjoy!!
Awwww----- bless your heart. You are no a Home Fry. These guys are amazing. Watch everything you can find. You will never be disappointed and most of their stuff is hilarious!!!
Welcome to the world of Home Free !!! The do covers & also originals, with a country slant, but they are not "country only". Look for their cover of Boyz2Men "End of the road", also their cover of John Mayers "In the blood" and two of their originals "Catch me if you can" & "Dive Bar Saints".
For those that think Adam Rupp can't play a harmonica without actually having a harmonica, check RU-vid for some video of his beat-box solo that he does at every Home Free concert. The man is beyond incredible! Also, Tim's unbelievable bass voice is all him! Each and every one of these guys are incredibly gifted, and an absolute joy to listen to, especially in concert! They're so genuine, and so funny! Enjoy this rabbit hole, my friend - you have struck pure gold! Definitely check out How Great Thou Art! For a fun Christmas song, enjoy Full of Cheer, an original song written by everybody's favorite bass, Tim Foust. Lots to hear from this amazing group of guys!!
To answer your question, yes, you will hear each of their individual voices in other songs. The beatboxer (Adam Rupp) does not have many singing solos, but he does backing vocals in songs where they do not need a beat. This is probably their most roots country feeling song, but they do everything from gospel to pop to rock including some rap and R&B...
Home Free's music makes me happy! You smiled throughout this whole video. Great reaction to a great rendition of this cover! Tim (the bass) can sing high too! And he has been known to blow out a few speakers. You can catch that on one of the From the Vault videos!
