Reacting to Home Free | Mary Did You Know |🎄CHRISTMAS REACTION 🎄 WOW!! AMAZING 

Chris Rupp has his own RU-vid channel. He left the group on 2016 to do other projects. He recently did a video featuring Rob with his new band which includes his sister. He does a lot of solo projects but has featured singers including Tim Foust. Rob is in Rockin Robin and Tim is in Long Black Train. His replacement is Adam Chance who was also on the SingOff season 2 in another band, Street Corner Symphony. He goes by "Chance" as to not confuse him with Adam Rupp.

A beautiful cover by Home Free. But Home Free has never done a bad cover that I've ever seen.

These guys are truly brothers with different Mothers they come from the north and the deep south of the U.S. but they blend together so well it blows my mind.

Samantha Lisa, yes this may be your 1st "newer" video you've watched. Chris left Home Free in May 2016 to pursue a solo career....Chris has come back several times and worked with the group. they've even made a couple of videos together, and Tim Foust the bass has made a superb cover of "Angels among us" with Chris. Chance, who just did bass cover in this video, replaced Chris & no other changes have happened. Check out their latest "What Christmas means to me"....frankly, just my opinion, but Home Free is better with Chance than Chris...it allows Tim to use his upper range now, and be confident in the bass being done by Chance is a very capable bass....

Lisa - I love your channel and your enthusiasm for the "Boys" - now that you've opened the door to their new videos - I KNOW you'll really enjoy "Snowglobe" as well as "Wintersong", "Cold Hard Cash" (for Christmas - really fun!!) and last but not least "Warmest Winter" which is a very sweet and tender song that Austin wrote about his grandmother / grab your hankies for this one.... Adam Chance joined 2016 (we call him Chance so not to be confused with "Adam" Rupp) Chance has a beautiful; rich, baritone voice and can switch to bass when Tim sings high.. They are simply amazing. I will continue to happily go with you on this wonderful journey called "Home Free". God bless you and your wonderful family at this most wonderful time of the year! RichieC (Atlanta GA - USA)

Interestingly you have seen Chance before. The very first Home Free video you saw was Constant Sorrow. That was of the group in its current configuration. Chance did the didgeridoo sounds in that. In neither of these songs, however, have you had a chance (no pun intended) to hear Chance’s voice highlighted. He has added a fourth very strong solo star worthy voice to the group. I recommend listening to something he takes lead in like Some Girls Do or Cover Me Up. He’ll be a whole new discovery!

Great reaction Samantha. They have so many songs this good, both new and old. Their library of music is so huge many fabulous songs get overlooked. Some sleepers that usually blow people away are Take Me Home Country Roads, Helplessly Hoping, and What We Ain’t Got. Home Free becomes a beautiful journey.

A great cover that features Adam Chance is Cover me Up. He has an excellent vocal range from Bass to Tenor, although not quite what Tim's is(he covers 5 octaves). Still his inclusion in the group has really allowed flexability in the other members. Another Chance video is Born in the U.S.A. where he shows some of his range(also his guitar playing).

WOW what a great arrangement of that song. They all did good. Adams beatboxing was great, to! Thanks for your reaction! I love Home Free😊

Adam Chance, the newest member, sings the bass part here. If you listen closely to Brothers in Arms, he and Tim sing some of the bass lines together.

Adam Chance does a lot of instrument sounds to compliment Adam Rupp's Beatboxing. Check out Can't Stop the Feeling for an instrumental interlude in the middle. Chance was the bass for his previous vocal group. He can go all the way from bass to tenor. You see a little of his high tenor in Can't Stop the Feeling.

I loved your reaction the new guy you see is Chance he is also a bass /baritone and in this song he's carrying the bass.

Merry Christmas Samantha, to you and you're family. Keep up the great reactions. ❤️👍

Everything you said Sam I agree with. This is soooo good. So beautiful, so creative. Those harmonies are incredible. The beatboxing by Adam and the bass by Chance is tremendous. Ok, Chris Rupp was co founder of Home Free and the baritone. He usually wore a ball cap or cowboy hat. He left the group in 2016 to go solo. He was replaced by Adam Chance. We call him Chance to not confuse him with the beatboxer. Chance is a baritone/bass and can fill in for Tim when Tim sings high. Chance is a wonderful singer and I would recommend some songs with him in lead….Yours and I Can’t Outrun You…they’re fabulous. (Btw, that’s the only change in the group til last year when Tim cut his long hair and let his gray streak show). Great reaction Sam. Have a wonderful Christmas! This song is now one of my favorites!!

Chris Rupp retired from the group in 2016, and was replaced by Adam Chance (Chance). You will remember Chance as the one doing the didgeridoo sound in Man of Constant Sorrow.

I understand your dilemna. Chris left the group in 2016 to pursue his own solo career. He has m5ade some guest appearances on HOMEFREE and some of them have collaborated with him on songs. Tim and Chris did a lovely rendition of "ANGELS AMONG US". During quarantine Tim cut his hair and stopped covering the gray, but tbese are the only 2 changes they have made. I personally love the new sound, which is very minor. I recommend that you start NOW, with their newest songs and work your way backward! They have really grown as a band! Tim has co-written or written several original songs. And don't forget he has a 5 octave range that allows him to go from that deep bass that we all love to tenor, sometimes high tenor! Adam, the beat boxer is coming up with new ideas constantly! Austin and Robb are still their glorious selves. Adam Chance, who took the place of Chris, is really good. I do understand how you feel about Chris. I felt the same way! But Chance, as he is called, has a beautiful voice and range. I think he adds to the group. TRY GOING BACKWARDS...FROM NEW SONGS TO THE OLDER ONES. THEY WILL BLOW YOUR SOCKS OFF!!!

You would really enjoy their version of "How Great Thou Art." It will bring you to tears.

Yes, you did see Chance before. He was in Grandma got ran over by a reindeer, another was Man of constant sorrow. He was the one doing the Jew harp in the start and end.

Don't be afraid to listen to their music out of order. I've also heard other reactioners say someone told them they had to start at the beginning and move forward. I don't see what difference that makes. They have so many (something like 150 in their catalog) that it would take a long, damn time to catch up. Skip around and just know when you see Chris it is an older one, when you see Chance or see Tim with the new haircut, it's a newer one. If you loved how powerful this one was, check out "Brother's in Arms" next (also a newer one).

Do Brothers In Arms. It’s splendid

Yes, Chris left a few yrs back. Chance came in and worked with the group and they had filmed a Christmas Party, with the Families. Chris was there and gave control of the note tune wheel, were they get the starting key to sing, to Chance. Telling him he was in. You do realize that Chance, has the same range as Tim.

Knew you'd love it.😁 Merry Christmas to you and yours. 🌲🌹

Chris and Adam (the beatboxer) are brothers and started the group, but Chris left the group in 2016 and Chance has been singing with them since then, so if you see Chris it's a video before done before 2016. This one is a newer dropped video so you see Chance in it. (he does have a nice beautifully smooth voice) Chris still sings though, has formed other groups, and has a solo career now.

Chris Rupp the founder of the group left in 2016 to work more on his solo career. He has his own RU-vid channel. The new member is Adam Chance who sings baritone but he can do bass too. He goes by Chance so there is no confusion. They have really worked so hard the last couple of years during quarantine. This is a phenomenal group and they sang this song beautifully. Great reaction from you.

Home Free can sing Christmas songs that are beautiful and lovely and moving...Mary Did You Know, Do You Hear What I Hear, What Child is This (under Chris Rupp's name). And then they will turn around and come up with Christmas song that will have you falling out of you chair from laughter. They do Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer caroling in ridiculous costumes knocking on the doors of their manager, other singers they've worked with, and Rob's actual grandma. (There's also an onstage version of this that should also be checked out.) Their song Full of Cheer is the sequel to Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget and they're both written by Tim Foust. Wonderful! And a whole lot of fun. And let's not forget Cold Hard Cash and What Christmas Means to Me, with its following short called Home Free Cooking with Adam.

As comments below have pointed out, Chris left the group to pursue solo projects. However, he has returned to acapella with a group called 7th Avenue, so he can sing with his sister Tristen. Before Chance joined Home Free, he was the Bass for a group called Street Corner Symphony.

Wonderful reaction! I am enjoying your Home Free journey! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family..🤗♥️

Chris left the group in 2016 and was replaced by Adam Chance who goes by Chance not to confuse people. Chris left on good terms. He wanted to pursue a solo career

Merry Christmas! Love this reaction and can't wait for more! ❤️

Samantha, I think this is the best version of this song that I have heard to date.

Adam Chance gives them greater flexibility. He is a solid base, which lets Tim do more leads. He is a good baritone and soloist too. I think you will like him.

The only one who's missing is Chris Rupp. Chris chose Adam Chance (rear left, light t-shirt, just called "Chance" to avoid confusion of 2 Adams) as his replacement before he left for a solo career but he still does stuff with the guys. They've all aged 5+ years since Chris left or cut their hair!😊 Any video done after 2016 has Chance in it! Merry Christmas, Samantha, to you, your family & all the Home Fries!

Great reaction, Sam! Thanks!

If you go to Chris Rupp's RU-vid channel, he has a series of videos where he, Adam Rupp, and Matt Atwood go through the history of the group from the beginning to when he left to go out on his own. You might find it interesting.

Thought it was amazing also!!! Hope you had a very Merry Christmas and hope it was all ya ever dreamed of. Happy New Year as well. --- Home Free, it just doesn't get any better! Be Safe

You should watch a few of their quarenteen videos from 2019 starting with the song Quarenteen....

The last guy is Adam Chance

❤🤗🎄

it's not the first video you have seen with Chance, he was also in Man of Constant Sorrow.

Great reaction Miss Samantha yeah this is a new video so Chris left the band,he was actually the brother of Adam the best box guy. Those two started the group. Don't forget to react to the song How Great Thou Are sweetie Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄

Chris Rupp left to go solo in May 2016. No drama, no falling out, he just wanted to do other things. I hear he's the one who brought of Adam Chance to step in. Chris did join with the group (the only time he's sung with Chance?) later that same year for What Child is This. Beautiful rendition. But I expected nothing else.

Check out Snow Globe and What Christmas means to me

Great reaction, if you want to see a good one with Adam I recommend Folsom Prison Blues

And THAT's in mono. Go listen to it in stereo. Trust me. From a streaming service or CD.

Here's where they announce Chris' departure: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Hw1rjQln5O0.html also, here is Tim's very emotional farewell speech dedicated to Chris (have tissues ready): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LC7KFfOKScI.html

Please do Do You Hear What I Hear for tomorrow. It would be perfect and you will be blown away

Please listen to How Great Thou Art by Home Free! Exceptional singing! Thank you!

Do a comparison of home free to pentatonics Mary did you know

Yes you did review another video of Home Free without Chris -- Man of Constant Sorrow.

Please react to Brothers in Arms. You will be amazed.

No drama. Chris left to pursue a solo career. I believe it was his recommendation to give Chance a call. Chance was in a group that performed in the 2nd season of The Sing Off. Street Corner Symphony. Check them out, you can find them on RU-vid.

Pentatonix has a version too

Chris left the group for a solo career.

Hey, Sam. Great reactipn. Have you listened to the cover done by Mark Lowery wirh Voctave? If not, I think you will love it too. 😎

👏👍🔥🔥💖💖💖🔥🌹🌹

As much of a Home Free fan I am I almost hate to say that Voctave's cover of this song featuring Mark Lowry (who wrote this song) is much better.

Try to react Gigi de lana have yourself a merry little Christmas

Chris left in 2016 to pursue a sollo career and Chance replaced him

Adam Chance replaced Chris. Chance is doing bass on this one.

Go kiss your kids!!!!😇
