[@VideoVaultOfficial]

best line I've heard this year

[@ronaldsinagra8825]

Chance is a bass/baritone. He usually sings bass when Tim is leading.

[@Grevlain]

Yup. He can go VERY low. Note - as far as I can tell, they don't layer themselves with multiple tracks .This is so they can always reproduce the same sound live. Pentatonix is the same way, they work with what voices they have, no track layering. Home Free is amazing - almost all of them could become an INSTANT Country superstar if they went solo.

[@chrisparti]

Yes totally agree, the other bass notes are from Adam Chance... He's an amazing bass singer in his own right.

[@rustygarnett4393]

You talked about the ranges Chance and Tim can cover; their cover of Mayday is the best representation of their ranges (imo). kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJ_Sh2idg6lsnZI

[@ronaldsinagra8825]

@@Grevlain Kevin doubles as the bass for PTX. Great range.

[@grimgrinningghosthost8600]

@@ronaldsinagra8825 Kevin is actually a tenor typically, they often show off his falsetto specifically. Scott is a Baritone with a surprising low register. If you listen to their cover of sound of silence it’s shown there. Or go back and listen and watch their cover of hallelujah. When Avi takes the lead, Scott takes over the Bass line :)

[@bradriley2614]

In the beginning during tims lead that’s actually chance singing that low bass. I’d recommend watching home frees “I can’t outrun you” to hear a lot of chance it’s basically all him on lead with everyone else in the background it really shows off his amazing country voice and the depth that he has in his voice and the background vocals and harmonies are just amazing. Really underrated song by home free you’d love it.

[@ooinoxioo]

Chance pulls out some crazy Bass in Mayday and everybody walking this world too. Wicked voice, such a great addition to the group when he joined. Tim and Chance is a dangerous combo for any speaker setup haha

[@elijahahlers1219]

Yeah! If you want more of Chance's lead, another good song is "Yours".

[@roberthudson1959]

Chance has a ridiculously low voice, it just isn't quite as deep as Tim's.

[@bradriley2614]

@@roberthudson1959 yes he just doesn’t have as much resonance as Tim that low

[@barbarakennedy2667]

Chance was the Bass when he was in Street Corner Symphony.

[@matthewireland1125]

Talk about too short...

[@Leviathan81X]

Home Free's new song "Snow Globe" really let's Tim show off his upper range, as does "Mayday". The man's got a 5 octave range which, quite frankly, isn't fair.

[@marysartor4278]

Yes, Snow Globe or Green Sleeves with Peter Hollens.

[@daleharden1749]

[@daethwing188]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2rMaKSDrJ2pj8U

[@TylerMcDiarmid]

It most definitely is not fair

[@lampherem48446]

The higher pristine ooo's when Chance was singing is actually Adam Rupp, he actually has a huge range as he sang that in his falsetto voice !

[@josephchiasson4760]

When Tim solos, Adam Chance sings bass. Their cover of the song Mayday shows off Tim’s upper range, and he was able to do it because Chance learned from Tim how to fill in his lower register and be able to hit some incredible bass notes. I think this is the first video they did that starred Tim’s upper range, but he is much more flexible now because of it. Chance is a baritone naturally, but Tim has helped him since he joined the group to be able to be flexible in his lower range as well (from what I’ve gathered from reading comments from others over the years)

[@wendischambach6181]

I just learned that when Adam Rupp does vocals, he does so in the tenor range. The initial 3 harmonies at the beginning (I think after watching a live performance) are Tim, then Rob and Adam Rupp. Then Chance jumps in but Austin doesn't appear until the second part/"chorus." In concert, I'm told that they often do this as an encore at their Christmas tour and they do it off mic to a pin-drop-silent theater. There is a reactor, Dennis, on King Family Reacts that interjected a clip of his personal cell phone video from a concert into the beginning of his review of this; it is difficult to do and was impressive to do at the end of a 90 minute set. Chance's voice has a smoky quality to it, like a whiskey dipped cigar. And the "chorus" is Austin; Adam Rupp rarely solos on vocals. I've been told there is at least one of their songs that you can hear him clearly but I don't remember which one it is. Sorry. Love your reactions. I always learn things from you and appreciate your breakdown plus your enjoyment of all things music-al is entertaining to watch. Happy New Year to you and yours!

[@tarjaikola]

Adam Chance sang bass in his previous group, Street Corner Symphony, so he already had a full bass sound before joining Home Free. His highs have been very impessive as well. The first tenor singing I heard of Tim was in Do You Hear What I Hear (which is a fab take and brilliant arrangement).

[@josephchiasson4760]

@@tarjaikola I am not trying to discredit Chance, but from the comments I have seen over the years, he did receive some help and advice from Tim, allowing him to go sing fuller and lower. It could be too just with time, experience and practice, but that's what I've heard. He has an incredible vocal range, and has been an amazing addition to the group since Chris left. And yes, Do You Hear What I Hear is probably the first time Tim sings in his higher register for some time, but this was when Chris was still with the group, about the only song that he did sing in his higher register (significantly) while Chris was with them, and he still carried the baseline through the majority of the song, including his amazing growl notes. No one "took over" the bass to the level that he does in DYHWIH. However, in Mayday, Chance plays a significant role of bass that allowed Tim to sing much of the song in his higher register.

[@josephchiasson4760]

@@hex3639 but Tim did help him since he joined the group... that’s not the main reason he’s a good singer, but it is still true. Again, I am beyond impressed with Chance as a singer, and I think he was the perfect addition to the group!

[@DennisKovacich]

@@wendischambach6181, I think the only two where I’ve heard Adam Rupp’s voice are “How Great Thou Art” and “Quarantine,” which is a parody of Billy Joel’s “Honesty.” Both are pretty brief.

[@MysticalMuse]

I've seen them live twice, and they sound just like they do on any of their videos! Just as clear, just as full, and omg Adam Rupp truly is a god. He doesn't layer tracks to get all of his beatboxing sounds in, he really is that good that he can do it in one go.

[@kellycain6382]

I saw them in person! They do not layer

[@Urgelt]

"Noooo! Don't be done!" My sentiments exactly. These guys are pretty darned wonderful. And I enjoyed your remarks, too, Elizabeth. Happy New Year!

[@Tensooni]

[@cchapa7470]

"I've been spoiled by Metal." Yes, dear. Yes you have. We all have.

[@TheCharismaticVoice]

Thank you, Urgelt! I really loved this rendition.

[@warrenburroughs3025]

I thought that Adam Chance's voice was like velvet. He'd be a fantastic crooner.

[@frankwrege5043]

For crooning check out the Home Free cover of Blue Ain't Your Color.

[@wing_nut6273]

The really 'pristine" parts that you were hearing there at the last was in all likelihood Adam Rupp. He can hit angelic high notes. They are generally too light to be used very much as a lead but they are truly beautiful as an accent or in harmonies. They are all truly blessed with talent that just flows together.

[@williamdouglas8084]

Chance is singing bass on most of this. Check out "Mayday" to here Chance's range.

[@nightspicer]

or snow globe

[@richardgrace4500]

Just because chance can sing base doesn’t mean he does it in every song that there is bass... it’s easy to go back and layer a song so Tim could easily sing both tenor and bass in a song while leaving chance to sing baritone especially since chance can’t even get near Tims level of bass

[@sparky0750]

If you would like to see Adam Chance carry the bass line and Tim sing in a higher register I think it's time for you to check out their Mayday cover

[@austinsuthers3791]

I believe they do this for "It's A Great Day To Be Alive" as well? And maybe fore another song, too but I can't think of it.

[@cindyknudson2715]

[@paulbarber4196]

Finally!!! I absolutely love this cover. As a bass singer myself, the warm tone throughout is so comforting. The blend of the harmonies is splendid and I just can't help but listen over and over again.

[@thaiseathaydesantos]

The bassy bass could be Chance, he used to sing as a bass in his last group, super versatile. For more on that, watch Mayday, from Home Free.

[@Mieknara]

Liking it before I even see it. I'm certain you'll enjoy it. This cover was overlooked by many reactors. If one really enjoys this performance, check out Home Free's "How Great Thou Art". It is truly inspiring.

Before this premieres I just want to say how much I appreciate your reaction uploads. I feel like they do such great service in showing musicians how fantastic their craft is. Thank you so very much! Also, I feel that you are quite the fan of Floor Jansen. I hope you can find the time to give her a listen in a song from a few years back with one of my absolute favorite bands, Evergrey. The song is "In Orbit" by Evergrey, and it is one of two songs she has done with this band. Evergrey is expecting a new album out this year and I'm so excited. I hope they get the attention they deserve. Thank you again Mrs. Zharoff! 🙏🙏

[@TheCharismaticVoice]

I am a Floor Jansen fan, and have not heard of Evergrey. I'll give it a look!

[@sonnyg4792]

Adam Rupp is a tenor, the bass in Tim’s solo is either Tim on another track or Chance who can also sing bass

[@frankconley6321]

It's Chance on the bass line.

[@Jaems_Scott]

That's right. Rupp says that when he's singing vocal [not percussion] that his range is a Tenor, between Rob and Austin.

[@randallshuck2976]

To hear a good example of Tim and Adam switching off on the base line you need to listen to their Cam cover "Mayday".

[@johnforsyth7987]

As someone who is of Scottish heritage. I am really looking forward to this reaction.

[@tomtatum2662]

Something that needs to be mentioned is the tremendous amount of work that went into this group coordinating their very-together sound!

[@scott2836]

My favorite cover of Auld Lang Syne. An unadorned yet absolutely beautiful 5-part harmony with lots of little moving and resolving dissonance and harmonies. Everything is tight and connected. Adam Rupp’s voice is a treat - we don’t get it often. And Adam Chance on that last line - ; it was as smooth as honey and butter spread on toast, and those little runs were perfection. Happy New Year everyone, and thank you Elizabeth for all that you do.

[@johnforsyth7987]

I would love to hear your reaction to Home Free's cover of Folsom Prison Blues. They are actually in prison dress for this song. Tim really shows his range in this rendition. Johnny Cash actually put on a concert in Folsom Prison in California back in the day.

[@clarenceantill3168]

Chance does the bass when Tim is singing. I saw them perform this live and it was done all stripped down. Reminded me of the old Barber Shop style.

[@andreaislandgirl720]

There are some live versions recorded by audience members of the group doing this song off mic. It's really quite lovely, and the entire audience goes silent so as not to spoil it. Really wonderful, and yes, that is Chance singing bass when Tim is taking lead.

[@meeting_meghan]

You are correct, that is their producer Darren Rust, who is actually a member of his own acapella group called the Blenders. When Adam Rupp is actually singing harmony (he doesn't like singing solo) and not beatboxing, such as with this song and Angels We Have Heard On High his voice is actually in the tenor range between Austin and Rob. I think you'd love listening to their cover of How Great Thou Art (and Adam Rupp does have a slight solo in that song).

Also react to home free do you hear what I hear

Chance has great parts in both Folsom Prison Blues and in "Cover Me Up." That one brings a lot of people to tears with the personal touch at the end! Thanks for this reaction!

You should react to home free’s cover of mayday

[@StooPidasso]

To hear Chance as a bass, Mayday is the song for you.

Dear Elizabeth , Adam Chance was a bass in the previous acapella group ; he often cover bass parts and his range , F#1 to A6 , is pretty amazing ( there is a video about it ) . Rob did sing lead , you can recognize his timbre :)

Yeah!

Chance layered the lower bass in. Adam Rupp is more of a tenor.

I love the dreamy look she gets when the music just takes over. Which is the essence of music. It takes you out of your mind.

Elizabeth, once again a superb and deeply insightful reaction...Intuitively I sensed v. early with Home Free there was a well(s) of deep talent and artistry, but could never articulate the "why" I am v thankful for the wonderful way you teach and share your deep music knowledge along with your forthright enthusiastic appreciation of the performances and I LOVE the way you generously take care to credit the persons "behind the performers" as well....and I can't tell you how much I appreciate those little "Nooooooo! Don't be done!!!" moments you inject that make your reaction so personal and just FUN... thank you, and a most HAPPY NEW YEAR to you too for this inspired selection.
