Tim Foust the Boss of Bass: I Kept Leaving Music But Music Kept Bringing Me Back!

[@neichuliesanchu5885]

Tim just casually speaking in 1st octave is ❤...

[@nanadeborah8717]

Tim is absolutely correct. A Home Free concert is another level indeed. You get to see his comedic side. And the energy with all the other Fries is over the top amazing. It gets to be an addictive experience. Love Home Free!

[@Graniepanies]

Tim says the same “script” at every HF concert. He needs to let all the members of the Band take turns hosing the concert. It is NOT the TF band. Or is it?!? 🤮

[@nanadeborah8717]

@Graniepanies If you go to the same concert multiple times,yes it is the same. Tim is the one who does the talking. The rest of the members are comfortable with it. It wasn't a Home Free thing until Tim joined. For a tour,the script remains the same. Are you going to complain that they sing the same songs at every tour concert?

[@Dandk88]

Tim is one of the greatest people ever. Glad you were able to interview him. Good to hear ya Tim!

[@patbrewer4205]

Thank You Tim for representing the people of Texas and the Friendship I feel that is part of Texas 😊😊😊

[@FrankDaddy-g1q]

Awesome to hear Tim's stories, he is definitively an interesting story. Tara, pro tip for you, when you interview people, could you please remind them to please not cover their mouths with the microphones? You do great with the microphone below your mouth, but Tim had the mouth, mike, camera all in line, meaning that all those of us with hearing impairments, can't read lips on him. It might feel like a small thing, but a lot of people actually use the face/mouth to understand, and not just the words themselves.

[@dianeritthaler7792]

So thankful you didn't quit Tim. You are such an AMAZING performer and person. Love your sense of humor and Talent and personality ❤ Thankful for you and Homefree

[@GailL-g7m]

This was one of the best interviews I've heard with Tim-- such a relaxed, friendly talk that brought out interesting details. Thanks for doing this. Tim's encouragement of aspiring musicians is sure to make a difference in some young lives.

[@MommaBird52]

God bless your momma and your teachers! To us Fries, you are a national treasure!

[@dagmar.6954]

That was an awesome interview! I found Home Free during the pandemic & I fell in love with their sound & sense of humor. Tim Foust is my favorite bass singer. I love that he can also sing tenor with his 5 octave range. His doo-wop cd is great. I bought it along with his solo album before joining Home Free. Hope to see them live one of these days.

[@lisabork9279]

We are all extremely happy that you are still singing acapella! You are amazing!!

[@dorikeppley8421]

Tara you’re a wonderful interviewer! You also left Tim speak freely, great video!

[@ThOneVoice]

Tim Foust is an inspiration, great interview

[@jasonbg72]

Huge fan, one of the best vocal musicians out there. Your approach to bass from crazy complicated basslines that set tempo and tone to supporting notes that lift up the tenors and round out songs with needed warmth and fullness is in my opinion unmatched and always serves the song and music. I know that many focus on your lowest notes and they are impressive but I want you to know there are people out there that appreciate all you do and aren't just focused on the flashy moments. You are one of the few that brings all of that to a Capela so thank you Tim.

[@margfried8796]

Exactly, I totally agree.

[@SarahAden-zb3np]

Thank u Tara for having Tim of Home Free. Tim is my favorite bass and singer.❤❤❤❤❤❤😅

[@brendasorenson6186]

Excellent interview. You know it's good when an hour feels way too short!

[@janeelfgren]

Tim are an awsome singer. Can listen to him sing for hours.💖💖💖

[@Merbak8]

This is one of the best interviewsI have seen of Tim. We’ve been following the group since their first tour when 5hey came to our small town. The second time we saw them was at the Lincoln County Fair in Merrill, Wi. This was a couple of years before the sing off. We were going to visit a family member in the hospital, hubby saw the group was going to be at the fair. Since it was on our way, we stopped for the show. There were only about 25 people who were there to watch the show. Between sets we sat with the guys on rocks, next to their worn out van, just talking about life. We always thought they were amazing. We’ve been tomany concerts since. Cant tell you how many times we listened to them and watched the videos during covid. It felt like we were connecting with old friends during that strange time. Hubby and I also love the sea shandies. When my youngest was a baby, he would sing whatcan we do with the drunken sailor every morning to occupy her til i got home fromwork so I could feed her. So much of our lives and memories arewith music. The artist then also becomes a part of us as they are part of that memory, and will live on in our spirit.

[@bessiecomer8221]

Love Home Free, love Tim! Thank you!

[@babyfry4775]

Great interview. Thank you so much Tara and Tim. So much fun to hear all about his music career, the ups and downs. He has such a great voice and I loved hearing all about his beginning and how he ended up with Home Free. Being outvoted has worked in your favor Tim!!! Love his voice!

[@michaelchristensen2407]

Great interview! Ive been following Home Free since 2019. Tim talked about his originals, and my absolute favorite is "I've Seen", a MUST listen!

[@straightarrow372]

Wow! When I saw this was over an hour, I thought it would be deadly -- but it really held my attention. Amazing story.

[@danielmadsen3407]

Thank you for having our bass guy, Tim!

[@glennspreeman1634]

excellent interviewer, good job Tara. Of course, Tim is a great guy to interview!! What a combo!

[@StevenEverett7]

Great interview Tara! Tim Foust is THE MAN!!!

[@debbiehall9091]

What a great interview. I learned so much more about you. Just makes me love you even more.❤❤❤

[@abbyzee2531]

Thank you, for this interview. Tim is such a talented & interesting man.

[@geniej9093]

Excellent deep dive into Tim's journey.

[@bethcoussou]

This was a great interview video! I heads a couple of stories I never heard from Tim. I’ve been a fan of Home Free since their first appearance on the Sing Off. I’m so glad I was already a fan of the show from the show’s first season. I may never have discovered them early on. Love being a Home Fry! Tim’s albums are incredibly fantastic!

[@bernieregnier4500]

Super interesting and a deep dive about Tim Foust, thank you Tara!!!!! ❣

[@jeffreyjacobs390]

TIM HAS A FULL THREE OCTAVE VOCAL TALENT WITH INCREDIBLE LOW END - he is essentially a Piano notes reproducer .... a maverick out of Texas ...... heard his singing while listening to HOME FREE A Capella group ..... been about ten years and three personnel changes AND STILL His lead and low note singing is an awesome time for listening. His channel on You Tube and that of Austin Brown ( former band mate in H.F. - recently departed for solo work) has several of his work and in confluence with others ..... just a great voice and funny person !!! God bless, Good sir, Tim Foust !! GBjj

[@rosebud3510]

That’s how I found Home Free through Austin Brown.

[@nightthornkvala94132]

What a wonderful interview. Great insight to Tim and his life and career. And I like your inverview/conversation style, Miss Tara.l

[@mandysmith1756]

Great interview, always interesting to hear from Tim.

[@Mimmitroll]

More bits to learn about Amazing Tim!! I can't ever get enough of the harmonizing he does in any constellation. Totally amazing talent and giving so freely of it. Thank you Tara for bringing him on and giving us new bits and pieces about our favorite guy!

[@JEleanorDennison]

I can attest that Home Free a whole other of level of experience live. It’s why I’ve seen them 96 times.

[@edsartistry]

WOW, Church of Christ !! OMG, my wife's uncle was the head Pastor of the Napa, CA congregation back in the early 80's, so her whole family were parishioners there for many years. Tara, thank you so much for doing this interview with Tim. I loved it. You are my favorite music reactor and Home Free is one of my top two most favorite music groups. Just love listening to Tim's beautiful deep voice. This was amazing !!

[@dancurran8977]

Thanks for the fun interview!

[@MommaBird52]

What a great interview! We love Tim!

[@jadawa85]

I love the acknowledgment at about 25:00 that it be difficult for a parent to know when to encourage persistence or just say “this isn’t working.”

[@matthewkaiser310]

Great interview, thank you for sharing!

[@lisaseverance6785]

Lesson learned from this interview....if Tim says no, do the opposite! 😅 Seriously though, amazing interview. So much experience in his life. Thank you.

[@abbyzee2531]

Great interview, I knew most of this but learned a few things!❤

[@sueetden]

Realy great interview. Fir newbies like me, we had learned many things about Tim I could easely imagine the faces of his scholarship's friends when he arrived in College with this bass voice! Hihihi! Thanks for the share. It was very good !

[@Diane-d3p]

I’m looking forward to seeing HOME FREE on Dec. 20th! Yes, I am definitely a Home Fry! ♥️

[@cherylhumphrey2251]

I've seen Home Free in concert twice now and I'm so happy they will be at the Strawberry Festival again this year! I'm so glad Tim didn't quit every time he got out voted. He is amazing.

[@ScottJThornton]

Great interview, Tara! if you're looking for another piece that shows off Tim's upper range, Austin Brown has a video on his channel of them singing "My Maria" live in Austin's backyard during lockdown times. They are joined by Tim's old friend and Blue Jupiter bandmate Chris Chatham on guitar, along with Austin's pianist Sebastien Douyon ("Bring Him Home"), and Tim's brother-in-law Chris Marion on acoustic bass guitar. It's really fun!

[@itzel1735]

Honestly, this is one of Tim’s best performances. Everyone on this piece are good.

[@Julandran]

That was so fun. It's hilarious that Tim has been repeatedly shoved and dragged into success against his own wishes. He's a very lucky guy with very wise friends.

[@itzel1735]

First Faouzia, now Foust. My favs!

[@lauraweimer4959]

This is so interesting,so glad Tim walked this road ,he deserves where he is .❤

[@GinkgoRi]

Caught an interview with Tim that was done a year ago, last night. Today, the holy algo sent me this one as well. What a gratifying experience it was to see this episode of your pod as my first - especially as a life-long fan of a cappella. Thanks for creating such entertaining, valuable, engaging content!

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Thank u! So glad you enjoyed it! They really are fun for me to do and I always hope to deliver them in that way 🫶🏼

[@vickiadkins9844]

I gre up in the Church of Christ too!! I love A capella too. Home Free is the best! So his Tim!

[@terryrice6282]

Wonderful interview.

[@ericachang4752]

A great interview. Thanks for sharing.

[@WoefulMinion]

I had a friend in college who sang on a cruise ship. Since the cruise ship was offering variety, she only had to sing once and could enjoy the rest of the cruise. She had been singing at Six Flags and her boyfriend at the time was flying from Dallas to Houston each week to sing at Astroworld (when you could fly for around $30).

[@lauraweimer4959]

Love the Shanty story!,these guys are so talented!

[@cowboy1165]

"Dive down the rabbit hole." Tim, you're taking our lines. (Home Fries.) Come on Tara, you need to set up some Home Free "reaction weekends." You still have about 200 and some too do. lol Thanks for the interview y'all and Happy Thanksgiving.

[@kmwwrench]

Such an interesting journey for him. So glad he isn't still substitute teaching.

[@lisaseverance6785]

Can you imagine getting Tim's dry humor coming at you as a kid? 😮

[@nanadeborah8717]

There's a video on KZbin with Tim and Chatham,who he met when he was in Blue Jupiter. He was still substitute teaching math up here. Chatham told me they lived in Inver Grove Heights then. But they sing Lady Gaga's Edge of Glory. Tim does lead. I didn't recognize Chatham until he sang in the chorus. I lived in Inver Grove Heights at the time,but my kids don't remember a long haired deep voiced sub. Tim says at the end,this for my little brats. I'll pin it for you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpexZJmFpdihb5osi=yhvtFmgHnlryMNR-

[@lisaseverance6785]

@nanadeborah8717 that video is on one of my KZbin playlists. Just love the sound. Never knew it was when he was in Minnesota though.

[@kmwwrench]

@@nanadeborah8717 I used to live in Inver Grove, too. That's weird.

[@nanadeborah8717]

@kmwwrench I know,right? It must be our fate to be Home Free fans 😂

[@ronjenkins2502]

Very cool insight. My support system was completely different. My dad wouldn’t even give me a ride to practice for the vocal ensemble. Now I write and sing but I’m almost 60. I have realized some of the dream. I’ve released 8 singles. How much better could it have been with the proper support?

Ladies and , maybe gentlemen, if you ever have the chance to talk with Tim Foust know you are going to flirt! Tara flirted;she may have been unaware of it, but she was FLIRTING! I love Tim! ♥️

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Sorry to burst your bubble. It is possible to truly appreciate someone’s voice and story without making it anything more than that.

[@cocinadesign]

Time for your reaction video to " Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget"

[@ScottJThornton]

There are two versions - the original one from many years ago and the one they just did for their Crazy-er Life album this year. While they're both good, I think the original wins (partially due to the surprise cameo appearance). It would be interesting to see if Tara catches it!

Dear ones, dear Tara and Tim, it's 4.28 AM over here in Nederland. You call my country; The Netherlands, we call it Nederland in our language. And then you go and take a town in Southern Texas and name it after my country. My dear goodness, we are truly lost without Our Good Lord, for sure!!! 😅🎉 But seriously: "Tara, you remind me of my sister a lot, same eyes, same power. I said it before; This is what you do so well. Tim..... your voice reminds me of a little, great man. He was known to most of us as Prince Rogers Nelson. You know.... my Grandfather here in Holland, had the same thing..... talked like a boy scout until one day his low voice just kicked in. Our Good God surely works in mysterious ways. Thank you both for your faith in Jesus Christ Emmanuel. Blessings to you and your kin. Good tidings are upon us indeed. Amen. 🙏😇❤️

[@denisemares1177]

Great interview Tim. Your voice is something else, you can sing very, very, very low. I enjoy you with Home Free. You, Austin, and Rob looked like you guys would have so much fun. Unfortunately since Austin left and you have a new member, I cannot listen to Home Free.😢😢
