TALENT FOR DAYS!!! Unsigned Artist Reacts "Home Free - Ring Of Fire (ft. Avi Kaplan of Pentatonix)"

[@toodlescae]

Between Home Free, Voiceplay and PTX we've got the trifecta of awesome a capella.

[@gailw415]

Homefree, Pentatonix and VoicePlay are the trifecta of acapella. They are the best. Now you have 3 rabbit holes. These guys are all friends and often collaborate with each other

[@agatharoxie4739]

Check out the bass from HF Tim Faust solo Stay/Will you still love me tomorrow....shows awesome range

[@graceparker7003]

If you think Tim's low note reverbs in your ears....you should be in doors to hear him vibrate concrete. Been there 2 times and never ceases to amaze me. When they did this on The Sing Off, the judges called it Country Reggae!! He's fantastic. Love Avi and glad he is on his own with his own music.Don't give a hoot about PTX.... I am a HOME FRY until I die!!!! Totally rocked it!!!!

[@miamidolphinsfan]

same here, Home Free all day....PTX.....not so

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

Thank you! yall are so animated and expressive, love these reactions AND love the Maryland flag!

[@shirleymoffat3338]

Avi Kaplan left Pentatonix in 2017 and is now a successful solo artist with a rabbit hole all of his own. If you like his vocals, start with 'Change on the Rise' then take it from there. You'll not be disappointed!

[@Rosiepooh75]

Avi's voice is warm honey! I love this collab!!

[@tassilo5949]

The guys from Home Free really never disappoint. I always find it fascinating how they interpret the songs without bastardizing them. The vocal range of Avi and Tim is great, especially the last low note of Tim. Not only is it deep, but he can hold it for a very long time. Better than this version is only the performance at Sing Off 2013, where Tim went even deeper.

[@jill9837]

Pentatonix is another great rabbit hole but then so is Avi's solo music, completely different from anything you would expect. Avi's voice along with his masterful songwriting is nothing short of magical. Most people start with Change on the Rise but there are no bad picks.

[@cocohol3513]

I totally second checking out Avi's solo music. Change on the Rise was his first solo song released in 2019 and his latest release is a live version of When I'm a Fool live at Sunset Sound studios off his album Floating on a Dream. I think you guys would enjoy Avi's music!

[@elenahume8295]

AVII IS AMAZING ❤

[@brendagrothier967]

I always tell folks how listened to Home Free without ear buds or headphones to go back and listen again.....what a difference it makes.

[@patriciawoyczik1657]

I love watching reactors enjoy these guys as much as we do! You should check out a live video for this song ....Tim takes that last note all the way to the basement and beyond...you can feel it in your chest and your chair vibrates!

[@dagmar.6954]

This song is done in a country reggae beat. It showcases the higher & lower ranges of both Tim Foust & Avi Kaplan. That last note of Tim is impressive with how low he goes, but more impressive is how long he sustains the note. On the "Sing Off Show" that Home Free won in 2013 Tim goes even lower on this song "Ring Of Fire" & he impressed the judges so much that they gave them a standing ovation. And Adam Rupp once again was stellar in his vocal percussion.

[@shecaso]

You should check out Avi’s solo work. He is absolutely amazing.

[@grannymitch6707]

Avi drops ~at least~ 2 octaves in his solo. What’s particularly impressive is how effortlessly he manipulates the very different vocal chord placement needed for high vs. low notes. His tenor is bright and beautiful, to immediately turn into that deep, sonorous velvety smooth bass - quite impressive. He was way under-utilized in Pentatonix, IMO. His solo work is incredible. You need to do yourselves a favor and listen to Change on the Rise. Song for the Thankful is another of my favorites. Tim Foust’s high range is beautiful - and it’s higher than most usually guess when first hearing him. The low note at the end was all him, with only a little vocal fry, sustained for a ridiculously long time, considering how much air is used to sustain low notes. His low note when they performed this on Sing-Off was even lower, and worth listening to. To really hear Tim’s bass, check out his collaboration with Peter Hollens in Misty Mountain.

[@vickiadkins9844]

That last note from Tim, Ya'll!! Home Free forever!

[@barbarakennedy2667]

I timed Tim's last note at 13 seconds .

[@colleenleavitt1777]

Ohhhh...this is gonna be a fun ride! 😁👍 Can't wait for the next Home Free reaction!!

[@jackiestone3468]

Home Free is the best rabbit hole to go in..their harmonies and Adam Rupp’s beatboxing are just mesmerizing! Love this arrangement! React to more Home Free you will have a lot of followers 😮 Great reactions 🎉 I love Home Free😊

[@ianp1986]

If you want to hear a bass hit the attic, check out their version of Mayday. Apparently bass singers can hit high notes due to how long their vocal cords are, or something like that. Also, their version of Ring of Fire that they did in the tv show they won is amazing too

[@ElizbethGould]

Love me some home free❤❤❤

[@anitawright7169]

They are so very awesome! They can do anything! They do not have a bad song! Love your reactions!

[@1aleckman1]

Hey guys! Love your reactions. You have just embarked on the rabbit hole known as Home Free. When you start down this journey you'll find that there isn't any genre that these guys don't take on. Although they are known as a country group they can do so much other stuff that it's just crazy. I've said it a lot, these guys could sing the warning label on a bottle of cyanide and make it sound appealing. Lol!

[@JoanN63]

Ring of Fire in a more modern, somewhat reggea-like version, but still respecting the original. 4years ago this was the first video I saw/heard from Home Free. I got there because I was listening to Pentatonix at the time and Avi was my favorite. Immediately there was something that drew me to Home Free. From then on I followed them and after I think 2 videos I was a real Home Fry. I hardly follow PTX anymore. Avi still does, because Avi Kaplan and Home Free let me feel music and not just hear it. Their great harmonies, the unbelievably good beatboxing/vocal percussion and of course that incredible deep bass that makes the ground vibrate and your speakers explode.

[@ZeroGamerNL]

Genuinely think you guys will like home free. They do a lot of country and they do it very well

[@barrywood7322]

You Have to listen to Tim sing Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay, it will blow your minds.

[@vickiadkins9844]

Have yall listen to their " Brothers In Arms"?? It's amazing

[@denise_landry]

You guys have quickly moved up the list of reactors to watch! Y'all are so entertaining - thank you Spencer and Daniel. Can't wait for more Home Free. 🍟

[@dianeritthaler7792]

Love these guys

[@valeriedavis4943]

This is new to me and it's great well done lads

[@heatherhuard]

Avi's solo music is a must! Change on the Rise is his most popular, Floating on a Dream is his latest album (AMAZING). Avi's music leans folk / americana with a touch of country rock soul and the blues. He only has 3 covers House of the Rising Sun, Lean on Me, and OutKasts Hey Ya, everything else is an original. He has a duet with Peter Hollens Black is the Color of my True Loves Hair in which his range (especially his beautiful lower register ) is on full display. Subscribing in hopes of seeing Avi reactions.

[@teresacartwright5406]

You can't run out of content. I don't know how many videos Pentatonix, Voice Play, et. alii have, but Home Free has around 150+. Moreover 3 of them have their own channels. Not to mention there is a series called "From the Vault" (behind the scenes filming of their videos) & another called "Home Away From Home". Two of them have started a side project "Sweet & Low Music Co.". Finally, the bass has duets with Peter Hollens (on Hollens channel) and Chris Rupp (on Rupp's channel). Fall down the rabbit hole - it's a really great ride. Love your reactions!

[@teresacartwright5406]

P.S. - There's a live video called "Tim Foust's Vibrations" - he literally shakes the venue. In two other live videos he blows out the speakers.

[@stephanieosadchuk5689]

To see their fun side, check out All About That Base (and there are plenty of others). To see Tim’s amazing range, check out his version (acapella, of course) of Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow. Their cover of Elvira is fantastic. Rob is brilliant in their cover of Boyz II Men’s End of the Road.

[@dalepettiner5036]

If you like Tim going low, give a shot to "Misty Mountains" with Peter Hollens & Tim.

[@stanrock2225]

Killed it

[@lindadoswell9396]

Love this stream!! like all these "Home Free" streams!!

[@autaum6536]

Maryland...howdy.....

[@IAVAIN]

I find this kinda acapella works really well with irish/scottish folk songs, i want "The Parting Glass [Official Face Vocal Band Rendition]" played at my funeral, the bass singers are equally as booming

[@babyfry4775]

Home Free did this on the NBC show the Sing Off and believe it or not, Tim went even lower than he does here at the end. Home Free did change it up to a reggae beat to make it different. Avi has a pretty voice. Tim helped Avi and Geoff (of Voiceplay) to go lower. Yeah Tim sings at least 5 octaves. He’s amazing. Adam, the beatboxer is amazing too. Well, they all are amazing and yes Home Free has as deep a rabbit hole as Pentatonix I would say. You would probably love Folsom Prison Blues, another Johnny Cash song the boys did during Covid. Enjoy!!!

[@sherryarflin726]

Home Free are at the very top of the tier in a cappella groups. Hands down !!!

[@Hadewijch_]

I love this version of Ring of Fire. Their voices are amazing. If you want to change it up to symphonic metal for a music reaction, you might want to check out Nightwish ft. Henk Poort. They've done a brilliant Phantom of the Opera. I saw them last November in Amsterdam, and it was very impressive.

[@kmwwrench]

Yup. So good.

[@1aleckman1]

I don't know about Avi, but Tim has a six octave range. And he knows how to use it.

[@jillchamberlain6478]

You can find The Sing-Off version of this with just Home Free (no Avi), and the reactions from the judges, on KZbin

[@jerrijackson824]

Don’t EVER listen to our boys WITHOUT headphones again! Lesson learned! Lol

[@pamelagoodman7559]

Country reggae!

[@dawnmanzetti1633]

My favorite a capella group 🎶❤️👏

[@kristipenwell8611]

If you liked this, you HAVE to check out Home Frees version on "The Sing off"..Tim will blow your mind!!

[@LaurieRein]

Don’t miss out on Adam Rupp, the Beatboxer. Those drums are him!

[@georgemegaw2925]

Check out a Home Free original .. “Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget” by Tim Foust. I’m pretty sure the video was recorded the same day as this. You’ll see why.

[@douglasthompson296]

Fun fact: here in 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 a ring of fire is usually what you get after a hotttt curry meal 😱 Cheers

[@beadwright]

Try one of their fun ones. Perhaps Working For A Living. Its awesome.

[@ciggy2693]

If you want a good laugh from Home Free, all you need to know is two words. Butts Remix!

[@minneyruth]

🔥🤠🔥

[@gpdragon1404]

When you start PTX, most start with Hallelujah, or Sound of Silence, but really, you can't go wrong with either group. I'd suggest Rather Be by PTX. Kirstie takes the lead in that one. You'll know what I mean when you get there.

[@debbiehall9091]

This is amazing. Johnny Cash would be very proud. CK out Hillbilly Bone ❤️

[@cashmeretran5004]

Adam rupp is the best beatboxer 😇🥰

[@timglennon6814]

Hey guys you have to check out REN’s new tune, Bittersweet Symphony.

[@junction6_m27VNC]

Is it just me or does the guy with the beard and glasses look more and more like Phil Jupitus every time I see him lol

[@kaptainawesome8921]

You need to check out voice play. Another acapella group you can get sucked into Voiceplay, home free and pentatonix are known as the big 3 a cappella groups

[@jherron8559]

Have a hoot with Hillbilly Bone from these guys

[@stevefilan2382]

Spencer got to say there is a old irish comedian called Brendan Grace and you look so much like him, haha you probably find him funny.

[@geniej9093]

Watching you instead of Super Bowl 2023. Except the National Anthem sung by Chris Stapelton.

[@rhyanwalker94]

Please react to the fury vs wilder 3 fight so you know the final ending. PLEASE!!!

[@miamidolphinsfan]

Home Free kills it again. Guys why not react to their newer stuff???? Is it just because these have more views? That's not going to get you more views, because like me many of us have heard reactions to many of the most viewed Home Free songs so many times, I often don't even click on them anymore.....trust me, newer songs will get you more views

[@markkaine6892]

Cloud you do Ren - Hi Ren love your reactions❤

[@markdryden]

Could you please review This is england 90.The sniff banging scene is funny as fuck.

[@annebiebrich9155]

Homefree is the BEST acapella group of all !

[@dougmcg5414]

Ken dodd

[@melanie00005]

I just subscribed please react Pentatonix they are amazing. :)

[@200yente]

The version Home Free performed on the Sing Off is actually better than this one. Shawn Stockman of Boyz II Men was one of the judges and he described Austin's voice as "smooth as brother, bro." Now y'all have made me hungry for Texas Roadhouse rolls!

[@nancyholter5646]

It's too bad you didn't enjoy it!!😉

[@melodiemalone2317]

Please react to voiceplay too it s an another a capella group. I recommand you voiceplay Metallica Nothing else matters please

[@scottdarden3091]

While Pentatonix are fellow Texans and I love Kristen, Scott and Mitch. They don't have Adam Rupp and the personality Home Free does! And note Pentatonix no longer has Avi, who has to tip his hat to Tim on the last note 🎵

[@christinebuckingham2480]

I love Avi, but the sing off version of this is way better. You think that last note was low? Listen to the sing off version.

[@danielhead8123]

Ptx isn't the same without avi

[@annebiebrich9155]

Not a Pentatonix fan, no offense intended!

[@eyeinthesky1233]

MR CASH ENOUGH SAID 😎
