The History of Home Free EP 7 ft Austin and Tim 

I Can Not Thank You Enough! I know you hear a lot of lip service about how good you are or other things that I'm sure after a long day can sound like empty flattery or crazy fry over dramatic platitudes. I just hope you know that some of us Crazy fries really mean it you have changed people for the better. It's not just the quality of your music, it's the quality of the people. These have been Fun and inspirational even an "old fart" like me feels like it's not too late to chase a dream. You give Hope to your audiences That matters a lot ! Thank you is so underwhelming a thing to say. I hope you can have a sit down with Chance someday I'd love to hear that story. You Sir are a Genius at choosing the right people at the right time for Home Free and honestly every project you've done since Great Casting ! You have serious skills Chris ! Love and Hugs !!!

I am so glad to be sharing this smidgeon of time and space on this earth with You, Home Free, and Cypress Fyre, etc. I am the beneficiary of your talents, great music, and some fun along the way. Much gratitude from this new Home Fry and Fyre Fly who is now counting the bacons. Cheers!

I love Home Free and love these Home Free history videos! I’m relatively new to Home Free (about 3 years) and don’t know if I’ll ever get to a live show, but no one could be a bigger fan than me! I listen to your music for at least a few hours every single day! Thanks for being such a special part of my life!

Thank you for making these 7 episodes - many of us won't be around to see 40 years of Home Free - please consider doing a livestream at 25 years - maybe have a party and bring everyone (all of the members over time) together and record the party - just watching you all hanging out together and sharing memories would be awesome for us fanatical fries. Great job!

I really enjoyed the whole series, but I have to say I enjoyed this one a teensy bit more because I didn’t discover Home Free until y’all were on the Sing Off. After that first episode I was surfing RU-vid and the web to see what I could find out. Knowing that a couple of you (not you, Chris) didn’t want to be a Country A Capella group at first, makes me appreciate y’all even more. I was only familiar with Country music artists through the decades unless they crossed over to the Pop charts. Thank you, Chris for creating and filming this series, and mostly for starting Home Free. I only was able to see 2 shows while you were with the group, but I’m still a fan, and also a fan of yours, since I’ve followed you since you left the group. I’d love to see you possible do a collaboration at least once more in honor of the 20th year. That would be sweet!

The Butts Medley is a song almost every Home Free reactor has seen. Angels We Have Heard on High is one of my favorite Christmas songs from you guys. I have really enjoyed this series! I'm so glad that you still get together with the guys for work and for play. 🙂Will @HomeFree take over the series and catch up the rest of the history since your departure?

Thank you for sticking with it all those years ago. I’m so glad I found you guys. I have 8 years of Amazing Memories and hope for many, many more. ❤❤❤❤❤

Homefree is my favorite Accapella group. Thank you Chris for forming this AMAZING GROUP.

No way I will be able to catch it in 40 yrs, but I love the thought of that happening even without me!

Thank you, Chris! This has been a wonderful series. We all really appreciate the time and effort you and the rest of the guys have put in to make Home Free amazing.

I call you guys "My Home Free Boys", as many women do that may or may not be old enough to actually be your moms. We are SOOO thrilled with all your personal as well as professional successes!

Y’all can’t ever stop. You’ve no idea the many times listening to you boys has saved my life.

Thank you guys for making these videos and allowing us fans to see your lives and growth of home free. If you have time I would love to see a video talking about your collaborations with other famous people. I think that would be super interesting to hear your impressions of those you've worked with like Kenny Rogers, Oak ridge boys, ECT. Thank you so so much for what you do. We love you.

Now I have to binge episode 1-6❤

Dawn Ours said everything I was feeling so I'm just gonna say Thank you for this and HF ❤️

Such a fantastic series. Thanks so very much for this Chris. It's clear that road to Home Free success is built on the love you all have for each other first and foremost, your love for music and then your determination drove it home. ❤️🥰❤️

Thanks Chris for doing this whole series of Home Free's history. I loved everything about it & will watch it many times again. Enjoyed all the stories, humor & humility from everyone. So glad you never gave up & that all you guys found each other.

Chris, this was inspired. I am so glad you are getting to do "Whatever the hell you want" that is the dream of most of us I believe. We are just fortunate that what you guys want to do gives us so much enjoyment! Thank you. These BTS stories and commentaries on collaborations and songs make for great videos too. Keep em coming fellas.

I just read The Meet Rack shut down due to COVID 😢 Love this series - thanks for the perseverance, the music, the laughter & the stories.

Chris you have the most beautiful voice I have ever heard I listen to you everyday you have a beautiful smile to keep singing forever please I will listen to you forever

This series has been so much fun and even more interesting to learn all about Home Free and its illustrious history! Thank you to all the guys who participated in the series and thank you for sharing your trials, successes, and hilarious stories! Most of all, thank you for never giving up! Home Free has made my life all the better, just because, simply put, you guys totally rock!!

Like so many others, I just want to say a huge thank you Chris for lettings us in on the wonderful, crazy memories of Home Free. I have never been a fan of country music but, as I've gotten older (maybe not wiser!) I have come to appriciate the craft, sounds and stories of country music. Home Free was my introduction and now I'm filling the house with HomeFree tunes every day! This series was so wonderful at showing how much perserverance, damn hard work mixed with the love of what you're doing, the love and support of friends and particularly laughter will pay off. Unfortunately today a lot of young people wants things now, they aren't willing to put the hard work and enthusiasm into reaching their goals. You have done amazingly and are a genuinely beautful soul. Music has always been important to me, especially the last decade. I lost my entire left leg almost 6 years ago and I thought my life had ended. All the things I loved to do, I can't anymore . But I put on my tunes and my soul lifts. Now my goals have changed. Instead of running or riding a bike, I'm going to learn indoor rock climbing and am learning AUSLAN (Australian Sign Language) to become an interpreter. The message you give is profound and everyone should watch your series as it shows, if you love something and are willing to do the hard yards, you can be amazing! So again, thank you for this, and for sharing your wonderful gift with the world. Peace and Love from Australia

Thank you guys got doing this. I started listening to you guys through the pandemic and helped get me through so much with a smile. Hope to get to see you live one day. Love to share laughs with yall.

Thanks for putting together this series, I've learned so much about Home Free, not just the group but about you guys as individuals. The amount of work everyone put in to make Home Free a success is amazing, and very much appreciated! One thing that I keep hearing in some people's reaction videos, is that they would love to just hang out with the guys in HF, and I absolutely agree. You all seem like nice, down to earth, relatable people, and to me that just adds another level of awesomeness. I look forward to the "no holds barred" episode 🤣🤣🤣

No stop signs, just detours to the goal. You can't get there because of xyz, no problem, choose route abc, just keep moving! I love it!

Tim you are hilareous. Love love love your sense of humor.

It's fun and intersting to hear about yours different memories from your shows, places etc. 😂😂😂❤❤❤

So glad all of you persevered 'cause the world needs A capella music! You may not know it but you guys are blessed and in turn we are blessed! Thank you❣️

I've enjoyed every single one of these episodes! Thank you guys for sharing your incredible talent, your "brotherhood" & your goofiness with us! THOSE are the reasons you're unique & set you apart from & above all the other groups! Please never forget WHO blessed you with your beautiful voices! God bless you ALL & keep you safe!🙏 💖, 🤗& 🥰from SE Tennessee!😊

Ah.. another wonderful way to start the day❣🍵and💝💞from all of you!

Thank you Chris! This series has been wonderful!

I loved, loved, loved watching you go down memory lane in this series, guys! It was fun to hear about the great (and the few not so great) times you had on the road, Home Free's origins, and to be able to laugh along with you. Thank you for putting this on You Tube, Chris. See you in 20 years! 🙂👍

I really enjoy hearing these history stories and how far you all have come. So glad you came into my life! 😊

Thanks Chris for putting this together. These episodes have been so much fun! 🖤

Love these

Oh no I’m going to a show in Kearney Nebraska this December. I hope we have some good stories from that night. I can not wait.

I have so enjoyed this series. All of you guys are so much fun. And you have such wonderful memories of your times together. Thanks for sharing some of them with us.

I live in AZ, so I looked up “the Meet Rack” and it Google pulled up a restaurant/bar in Tucson, that closed during the pandemic. If you were planning on visiting it when you come to Tucson for the show in February, you can’t, because it’s closed.

Chris these episodes have been great! I totally agree with your talent and your arranging is brilliant. I am so glad you never quit. I do have a question lol. Is there a reason you are drinking from a creamer? 😂 Please continue these episodes. Love the stories and I really love your reactions to the videos. You do have the touch for picking the right people, then and now! P. S. how about our 2nd guilty pleasures. Or B cut guilty pleasures and you join them for it? Just a thought 🤔

I really enjoy these episodes & hearing all about the history of Home Free! Thanks for sharing these moments with us Chris! 💕

Thank you, Chris, for this series! It scratches that Home Free history itch!

You guys are so fun together. 💓 I'm a really big fan from Brazil 🇧🇷, and i always think about how amazing seeing you performing by person would be, but maybe one day. It's incredible how i was paying attention to this conversation like i was sitting right next to you (being part of it) 😂 hahahahs Love you guys! Keep going

How can one say thank you enough for doing this and sharing those memories of those times words are inadequate to the task. Too bad this series is ending.

I love you guys! Thanks for staying with it, so I could enjoy your efforts.

I always wondered who arranges the songs. Bravo for whoever does it. Your arrangements are the best.

Thanks so much for doing this! I have thoroughly enjoyed every episode. I saw the alert for this one while I was at work and had to put every bit of self-control to the test to not watch until I got home!

Chris is like the energizer bunny, keeps going!

I loved watching all of these videos about the amazing Home Free. I'm so looking forward to your next one. You all rock!

Thank you for the healing and joy your music has brought my soul. As a new Home Fry last year, some favorite crew moments from watching older BTS videos, was realizing why I recognized voices of the crew. You had introduced me to them in your Infant Holy, Infant Lowly, video (The Hound + the Fox). 😁. There are videos I have sobbed from laughing like my favorite improv Colder Weather Memory Lapse. 🤣

Thank you Chris. Enjoyed all the stories.

I have truly enjoyed all 7 episodes they were all so much fun and informative love everything about Home Free keep up the good work fellows ❤

Yes please keep going and don't stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much Chris. Amazing all the tough, fun and crazy things you guys all did together. Hearing all of the story's brings a smile. I have gone back to watch over again. Now I have a 7th one. Appreciate you doing this. Thanks.

I loved this! I would love to hear Chris tell the history from the beginning and hear the different stages thru the years! I get to see you in 4 days!!

I have really enjoyed this History series! Thank you!

Thanks for sharing your memories and experiences. It's been great fun to follow along.

Thanks Chris, this was fun to see

Thank you! I prepared for my first Home Free in person show recently by binge watching this series. I hope to hear the story behind my favorite comedy video ever Full of Cheer sometime. 😂 Tim giving Adam dog food and Colder Weather memory lapse are my favorite improv moments of all time! 😂😂😂

Inspirational people doing inspirational things. Thanks for the history lesson. It was just as cool as I expected it to be.

Obrigada Chris, por essa série fantástica!! E obrigada por ser um dos responsáveis e idealizadores de um grupo de acapella tão maravilhoso como o Home Free!! Excelente trabalho, cara!! Adoraria ver o Chance nessa roda de conversa também!! Amo vocês!! 👏👏❤❤

Thank you for sharing this incredible history and journey with us. I have always liked walks down memory lane like that. It's so fun to see where you all started and to where you have come to now. Love you all.

I enjoy listening to your history plus your grour

I loved watching you at Starlight Theater in Kansas City!!!

Barnacles :D :D :D !!! and Angle Fish :D!

It's fun to hear the stories and know you all get along. Could you all do an arrangement of When the Mists Have Rolled Away? Haunting like the mists over a river in the morning growing into a powerful declaration as the mists are rolled away.

Another great episode Chris. Can you continue these interviews? It is great learning of the group history. What have you got planned in your future? Christmas music? Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for put this together 👏🏻🇧🇷

Ah bummed the series ended. Enjoyed seeing my first HF concert back in December and would like to thank Tim for making this former bass sound like a soprano. I think one of my favorite HF stories was Tim telling about a certain group of "misguided idiots" who picketed a concert. ".... but I'd kiss a dude to piss them off." It'd be awesome if you could somehow get all the former HF members to do a song together with the current ones.

Just keep going (Tim on a Ventilator, Austin goes bald and puts on a wig, Rob's beard is straight white and when they do Christmas albums the kids all call him Santa, Adam is taken one night by the Area 51 folks to talk to aliens and they say he's too weird for them, Chance creates a Home Free game and becomes a trillionaire).

Just wondering about Adam Chance in Home Free history segments? I don't think he was in any of the segments.

I have saved footage of your last Home Free concert (non-patreon) because it’s great music, hilarious banter & there’s that one emotional part. Maybe a video on what you are working on or with that we don’t see on RU-vid ?🎉 #SunsOutGunsOut #FollowYourDreams

I have to ask, do you have points you want to cover or do you just go and see what happens? You hit a Home Free run.

Tshirt suggestion … Homefree - Stop signs are for wimps… keep on trucking !

Any chance (no pun intended) you'll have an episode talking with Adam Chance?

I can say i love HF....your music I call healing harmony and you UpCovers....covers that are better than Original

I found the Big Time RV show ... season 3, episdode 5 ... available on Discovery+ and a few others. Watching it now! And ... did your really buy that RV? Did you get a discount for being on the show? Just curious!

been thinking why wait 20 years.. how about series off people Home Free has done songs with ;)

Chris, Are you really going to say EP 7 final episode? WTH!!! You didn't even talk about you leaving the band and Adam Chance taking your place!!! You gotta do one more with Adam Chance!!!! Then "See you in 20 years".... PLEASE!!!!!!!

I want to hear the Tim and Rob stories....... Just saying. Too many teases.

Thank you Chris for sharing the back stories of Home Free.
