First Reaction to Home Free - Something To Talk About

[@dagmar.6954]

They did a great cover of one of my favorite Bonnie Raitt songs. Bastien's voice was perfect for the lead. Everyone sounded awesome in the background vocals, Rob with his bluesy sound, Tim's bass & Adam's vocal percussion. Looking forward to more of the new songs with the newest member.

One of my favorite Bonnie Raitt songs gets the HF treatment. This is a perfect song to introduce Bastien to the audience. Perfect for his voice and his personality. Love it. An extraneous comment - you really should use headphones when you listen to a cappella. So much that you can really only hear that way.

Home Free doesn't really have a lead singer. The person they feel sounds best with a part of a song does it. They often switch off during a song also. Like in their original " Understand " or their cover of " One Man Band. I love that about them.

Not a replacement but similar pitch. Austin was a high tenor and I imagine Bastien (pronounced Bass-teen) has a similar sound. Rob (glasses) is the tenor so a little lower. Chance is the baritone/bass and Tim is the bass (but does have a 5 octave range so he can also sing in the tenor range. Adam Rupp is the beatboxer. When Tim sings high Chance will cover bass for him. A really versatile group. Bastien has a nice voice. I think he’ll fit in fine. Good one Mike!

Couldn't agree more, he's a great addition so far 👍

Another great video by #HomeFree! Love this Bonnie Raitt cover, given new life by the boys. Bastien was a fantastic lead, the BGVs and percussion amazing as always, and any time we get to hear Gospel Rob is a treat. Keep going down the Home Free rabbit hole there is much to discover and you will see that they never disappoint!

Bastien is a fine fit... Rob bringing it... Tim and the rumble...Adam more fabulousness... Chance yummy...

[@PaulaThompson-x9w]

Fantastic! Just like I knew it would be! I'm excited to see more of the energy and smiles Bastien brings to the group. They made a great choice for this addition to the group. I hope people realize he wasn't picked to replicate Austin . No one could do that. He was picked for the great things he can add. You can see how comfortable they seem together. Thanks for the Home Free reactions!

[@MikeBass4456]

He certainly adds a lot to the group, excited to hear what's coming 😁

The beat goes on ... #HOMEFREE

Bastien is a high tenor like Austin but has a style and energy very different. I like the jazzy bluesy sound to this song. Bastien chose this Bonnie Raitt cover to use for his introduction to the Home Fries. Can't wait for what comes next.

[@MikeBass4456]

So it is a cover, thanks for the info 👍

[@beverlybrantley5659]

Thank you. Great reaction. #HOMEFREE

I am looking so forward to the new era Home Free. Adam Bastien ( Bass like the fish - Teen ) is a wonderful addition to the Home Free family. Home does ask Patrons to star in videos and send pictures or videos to feature in their videos every once in a while they really care for their fans

PLEASE use earbuds or headphones to maximize your HOME FREE experience. You won't believe how much detail you're missing!

[@patriciavernon9795]

Agree 1000% on the headphones! Don’t want to miss any of those sweet harmonies!

[@nightthornkvala94132]

First, a big YAY! to Abe and his sweet dance moves. Actually Bastien has been a member of the Home Free family almost since the earliest days in 2000-2001. He was part of Home Free between the time Matt Atwood retired to start a family and Austin joined around 2012 or so and was a member of the Home Free B-team that covered their tour dates while they were on the Sing-Off. When Chris Rupp left in 2016 he started a group called 7th Ave with his sister Tristin and Adam Bastien. The 4th member alternated between a young lady named Kelley Jakle and Bastien's (future?) husband Jerome Bell. Adam and Jerome competed on The Voice together as either OneUp or OneUpDuo. I've seen their videos under both names.

[@MikeBass4456]

Wow, thanks for the info. I've learned a lot there 👍

[@dianeritthaler7792]

Liked and subscribed. Homefree knows what their doing when they chose Adam #3❤

[@MikeBass4456]

Thanks, so when Tim and Rob leave and get replaced by people called Adam, they could just change their name to The Adams Family 😂

[@justkaron]

​@MikeBass4456 ....don't EVEN joke about one of those guys leaving! 😮I 😁

[@justkaron]

​@MikeBass4456 wash your mouth out with soap. Don't EVEN go there. 😅

[@MikeBass4456]

@justkaron mouth fully washed out, thanks 😃

[@antrazitaj5209]

Bastien is a high tenor, his voice just sounds more poppy compared to Austins country twang

[@MikeBass4456]

Perfect description, thanks

[@patriciavernon9795]

Bastien sounds poppy with a bit of funk! I like it! 😀
