Home Free Sea Shanty Live

Shout out to the guys in Home Free. They never disappoint.

Wish they’d do full versions of these songs, especially Santiana.

[@kiaracln28]

I know! Since I've heard Santiana, I've been trying to find the full song, but in this version, I haven't been able. I found another version, but it's not as fun to listen to.

[@SBQDawn]

well You can see Chance do Full Wellerman with the Hound and Fox will that help? *chuckle I love it maybe you will?

[@Why-rw6mo]

@@kiaracln28 There's a full version of it on Spotify by The Longest Johns but you could probably be able to find it on KZbin.

They are so great. I'm married to a sailor in the USCG. But I'm also a musician and a pianist, and what really gets me with this post is that they're so in tune live. Nobody is this in tune live. I've done this. It's so hard to do. Dang. Thank you, Tim Foust, Adam Chance, Rob Lundquist, Adam Rupp, and Austin Brown. You guys really have it going on.

[@billsturm9225]

Thank you for the kind words. I too was in the USCG. If you get a chance to see them live, I highly recommend it as recordings dont do them justice.

[@davidmorton8170]

I agree, their intonation is so spot on. I know when laying down studio tracks they can add additional tracks to fill out the sound, but then you hear them in person and find out, they don't NEED to.

[@Mandolorian1001]

It really isnt hard to hold tune live.

I am sorry to hear that and will be praying for you. Yes, they are incredible, especially live (not to make you feel bad). Videos don't do them justice.

What was Adam playing up there on the top of the steps?! (if you could even tell!) I am NOT one of those fans who thinks these creative souls should never add instruments to their music!!! I love it when Ptx adds them, especially Kevin's cello, Beyonce!! I was just curious!!

[@billsturm9225]

he didnt have an instrument per se but he did have a loop machine. He did a lot of sampling (which I know Kevin does as well) then he plays it back. Face it, the vocal percussionists have to put out a lot of sounds at the same time. The only wat to do it is with a loop machine or pre recorded track.

Yeah, i think the Home Free group has a tough time with choreo and adding more "spice" to the performance. They're focused on singing and hearing eachother to harmonize and whatnot. It's also fatiguing to sing for so long, so I don't blame them
