Poor Adam on their European tour in Sweden the guys actually forgot Adam on stage so he had to spend 5 min. asking the audience for sounds they wanted him to do LOL

[@anna-karinolsson537]

That was fun!!! I was there

[@anniedh600]

Really? How did they forget him on stage? Is there a video on KZbin of that? I’d love to see it.

[@mettesrensen6116]

@@anniedh600 Yes there´s a short on YT and it´s from their Home away from home - the european tour part 2

[@douglasdunn8544]

The part that got me was when he adjusted his mike stand and my first thought was how he was drumming with one hand while he adjusted his mike stand. Then I thought "duh, he doesn't need his hands to drum".

[@miamidolphinsfan]

Adam Rupp has been called, affectionately too, a freak of nature

[@milomurphy9178]

Adam Rupp is beyond talented. He is the quietest of the group but like all of the guys has a great sense of humor. On their KZbin home page they each have links to their favorite Christmas songs. Adam has twenty plus versions of Little Drummer Boy on his list. 🎁🥁

[@SauceyDad]

Haha that’s amazing 😂😂

[@jameystegall564]

The man swallowed a drum kit. The shear talent that these 5 guys have is just so amazing and you will probably not see this level of talent again in our lifetime.

[@traceywilson8204]

when a man loves a woman Austin is awesome in it as are all of them😊

[@calliec7493]

As it gets closer to Christmas, watch the Home Free video of Do You Hear What I Hear. It was arranged by Adam Rupp and is another Home Free masterpiece.

[@celtzen]

Absolutely an amazing arrangement of that song!

[@gettoyourpointagosta8539]

My favorite, no matter the time of year!

[@shilohauraable]

I just listened to it today! It's beautiful. 💖

[@kmwwrench]

Best arrangement of any Christmas song, ever.

[@cheridampier2524]

Adam was a trumpet major in college and uses those techniques to make sounds on inhale and exhale. He taught himself to drum just for beatboxing and he adds to his skills every day. His castinets in Sea Shanty Medley is outrageous and can we talk about his " no-monica " ?! Lol

[@SauceyDad]

Yaaaaa the no-Monica is INSANE to me

[@momD612]

Working for a living!!!!! That's full-on No-Monica bliss. 😊

[@fogdog165]

As a lifelong instrumentalist I should be offended by "instruments are for the weak" but....okay, I can't in good conscience agree with that but one thing's for sure, *these* guys don't need no steenking instruments and that's just fine with me. Yep, here I am, happily unneeded. Thanks for pointing that out and for another righteous reaction.

Love Adam Rupp & his insane talent. He is the best out there in my opinion. He simulates the sounds of a drum perfectly. Many drummers have commented on how good he is. He sounds so realistic. This was a few years ago & hard to believe but he is even better now. Adam is the glue that holds Home Free together. He is their secret weapon which other a cappella groups can't match.

[@carolinpettit7944]

Some call him the heart beat of HF. He is so talented!

[@WarriorforTruth429]

Adam was the one that started home free him and his brother his brother went solo so this is what happens you get a great group of guys with awesome sounds

[@LadyDragonsblood]

Tim WAS a teacher in his early days....so you weren't far off.

[@SauceyDad]

Haha makes sense!!!

[@caroleb.9387]

His drum track in Sea Shanty Medley was awesome! He brought damn CASTANETS! 😉👍😎 Highly recommend this one! Was done during quarantine and lots of fun 😃😁. Great reaction 😎👍❤️

[@InstrucTube]

I have been a drummer for years. I grew up in a house where my Dad was a drummer for 50 years. I've heard the instrument a time or two. This man has a literal drum kit in an alternate dimension that only he can see. You can't convince me otherwise.

[@Angie-yt1ki]

My favorite part of that is when he drops the bass! 🔥🔥🔥Another you should check out is their Workin' for a living cover. His no-monica in that is mindblowing 🤯

[@tassilo5949]

Adam is a walking sound system 😁 world class. You have to watch one of the latest videos. He has gotten better with each passing year - as most say "a freak of nature"!

[@lisasullivan2428]

LoL! Tim was a teacher before Home Free.

[@SauceyDad]

That is TOO funny!!!

[@LadyDragonsblood]

By the way, you should check out Tim's Eats..... where he does food reviews..... good lord I don't know where the man puts all the food he eats...... well, then again, it does take a lot to feed a Dragon...I should know!

[@shilohauraable]

My mouth would be SO DRY from just TRYING any of this stuff! How does he do an entire concert like that? 🤔

[@wbish3]

Now that you've seen an old one you need to watch a new one. I've got his 4 most recent drum solos (first week of Nov) on my channel.

You are my new favorite person to watch!!!! Your reactions to Home Free are spot on!! They are amazing!!!! You will not find any group out there with the talent they possess . Try Hillbilly Bone or Go Rest High On That Mountain. They give 2 different types of songs they sing. You won't be disappointed!!!! LOVE YA!!!!!!

[@jerlynneallison6361]

The most amazing thing to me about Adam Rupp is that he learned to play the drums so he could be a better beat boxer. That is dedication! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@Tark-qs4mu]

Adam starts his day off with a breakfast of drum kits, lunches on synths, then has something more exotic for dinner ( Digeridoo, perhapse? Maybe some mixing equipment? ). I'm also sure he snacks on little things like harmonicas and, sometimes, hand puppet ducks, just for fun. Entirely not human, and I'm entirely not caring. Lol.

[@scottdarden5808]

Adam is the glue. He is what makes the group the best

[@lindanearing4710]

I believe that's true, but if any one of them were missing from the group, it just wouldn't be Home Free. All their unique and wonderful talents and skills combined make magic.

[@kataa.]

It's always so much fun to see reactions to this one 😁 Adam started beatboxing when they formed the group in 2000 and he has not stopped training since. So he has gotten way better since this one...

[@SauceyDad]

Wow....that’s amazing thank you for the info Kata!!!

[@momD612]

@@SauceyDad there are several more videos of his beatboxing solo videos. The Michael Jackson he put in later is amazing!

He is the gold standard, no question about it. Heartbeat of Home Free.

[@louisetemples7011]

AND... his heartbeat thumps are pretty sweet in the video of " BLESS THE BROKEN ROAD " He kills it every single time!

[@carolinpettit7944]

And just think how much better he's gotten in the last 6 years!! Another video that really shows off Adam is 'Workin For A Living'. The harmonica in that one is AMAZING! It's one of their fun ones that everyone does a great job in. I love that you call these 'gifts'. Another great reaction, thank you!

[@pamelamoncur3625]

Tim was a school teacher. He once said he would go into a class of roundly teens and when he spoke they sat down

[@jillchamberlain6478]

Adam rupp taught himself to beatbox. If it makes you feel better (as it does me) he has been working on this since 2000

[@dogtrainerjen]

Last I heard, he prefers being called a beatboxer instead of vocal percussionist because of the myriad of other sounds he has mastered... I really, really want to go see a concert someday!!!

[@MonicaVennell]

This one was from quite a few years ago, he's gotten even better. I enjoyed your reaction. Have a good one.

[@brettsteele7386]

The band calls him The Freak of Nature, also I have heard that he is a multi time world champion beatboxer.

[@justthinkingoutloudwtracie1482]

I listen to every HF song through once just focusing on Adam. He's so perfect for every song that I don't even realize half what he's doing

[@Joyfulellyn]

It's not exactly the same thing but he makes me think of Michael Winslow, from Police Academy movies. It's truly amazing what some people can do, it completely floors me.

[@susanengland3919]

Clearly he's learned how to breathe through his eyeballs, I don't know how else he can do those long runs without taking a breath.

[@lisaseverance6785]

You should check out "Hillbilly Bone" and their "Fishin' in the Dark/Boondocks" mashup. Fishin is an older one with Chris still in the group just to give you a taste of where they were then. Hillbilly Bone is after Chance joined the group. Oh and you must do some concerning their humor - "Butts Medley" is the most requested for humor but check out "Honey I'm Good", "How We Roll" "Champagne Taste" or "Workin' for a Livin'" . For sheer talent....well click on any of them. But for Christmas music, a must is "Do You Hear What I Hear?" arranged by Adam and it is so unique and the intricacies of the arrangement is borderline mind melting! And if you want to check out a live clip...I believe there are live version clips of all the songs you have reacted to except Brothers In Arms. You could do a comparison thing if you would like. Do the studio version then listen to the live. Just an idea.

[@sharonmortimer3843]

Adam is definitely the best beatboxer- vocal percussionist for sure. Always enjoy watching your reaction. His bass is considered a throat bass.

[@wirelessmikedj7784]

Check out the 9 to 5 live video with Beatbox Breakdown now....they all join in the beatboxing. The thing about Adam....he replicates drums to the point that an actual drummer could play along. That is the difference between Vocal Percussion and Beatboxing.

[@nikkibanning176]

Gotta love a man so dedicated to his craft.

[@joeysmith5086]

Remember when Eminem said he had no snare in his headphones? Adam said hold my drumsticks lol.

[@minneyruth]

Check out Working for a living if you want to hear Adam's " No-monica "

[@dot.e1340]

Saucey, you sure know how to put a grin on my face when you're doing Home Free reactions(they are the only ones I've yet watched from you). Not only are your words fun and funny, but your wordlessly gaping mouth says a lot, something we Fries can really relate to. Gotta love it! And gotta love Home Free. Adam Rupp is the solid foundation of the group, in my opinion.

[@Charmed636363]

And that was the earliest drum solo. He's got several more that just shows his vast improvement as the years go on.

[@WearingTheArmor]

If you want to see how they pull of some of that magic beat when things get complicated, check out their "9 to 5 break-down". It'll blow your mind and explain a lot! ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHm8mIpmm5imgac )

[@donnabanks7213]

Adam has a beautiful singing voice as well

[@lindanearing4710]

I watched a Whiskey Therapy video where someone asked him why he never sings lead. He told them that he "isn't vocally trained (like the other 4 band members, who's singing skills are just crazy good) and his voice doesn't have the flexibility to take lead." (his words) He has studied enough to where he can "sing properly to do the harmonies and small solo bits, however." (again, his words) In my opinion, he does sing beautifully when he sings harmony and small solo parts. They all have their special sparkle. Just like when the other 4 beat box, they haven't had the years of dedicated practice that Adam has. They do a very respectable job of basic beat boxing, but no where near Adam's skills.

[@LadyDragonsblood]

I was going to watch more paranormal videos from you.... but you SPRUNG this one in on me! Yes, this is the one to start with.....then watch the others through the course of your reactions, as Adam gets better and better! I can NOT WAIT to see you react to this! Adam is "Our Freak of Nature".
