Home Free started in Minnesota. Two of the members are from Minnesota, one lives in California but was raised in Alabama, one from Texas, and one from Georgia. They didn't start out as a country group but found it different from what everyone else was doing and started before, but were accepted on the Sing-Off show as a country group and they won that season (Season 4). They are more than country though, they do Pop songs, did an R&B, Old classic rock songs, Top rock, gospel, and country songs too, They have collaborated with some big stars also. I'm not much of a country fan, but I like what these guys do and are a big fan. Love them!

[@3912James]

Their foundation is country...but what I love about them is that you can't pigeonhole this group as they can do hip hop, r&b, pop, reggae, etc., just like you said.

[@jeronougues]

If I'm not mistaken this video was filmed near the Swiss Alps (the ones in the background) in Austria back in 2016. If you're really interested you can check their "From The Vault" behind the scenes video that shows how they filmed this. Great reaction you guys! You gained yourselves one more subscriber :)

[@SBQDawn]

Austrian Alps while on their EU Tour right before Lockdown started.

[@ryanhale4723]

They did a version of "Same Auld Lang Syne" where the harmonies are much like this one --- totally unbelievable. Perfection.

[@drieuxkoeppel8152]

It was “Auld Lang Syne”. Not “Same Auld Lang Syne”. “Auld Lang Syne” is a poem written by Robert Burns~~Scottish poet. It was adapted into a song with the same name!

[@louisetemples7011]

This was filmed in the Alps of Austria when they were doing their European tour!

[@ambrossialynn4041]

Technically, yes, they're country, they've said it themselves, but they do enjoy putting their style to other music :p... filmed in Austria. They were doing an A Cappella "thing" and saw this view. They called the crew in (who were NOT in Austria) asking if they'd come, they found the perfect place to shoot for this song lol... dedicated and very right!

[@staceysmith8173]

I know I would drop everything and go. They wait for the perfect place when they do some of their songs. Instead of just filming somewhere

[@terrichristenson432]

This is one of the very few times you will hear Adam Rupp (their beatboxer and founder) sing.. He is the only one without vocal training and does not feel comfortable singing. His contribution is the glue that holds everything together, he is absolutely superb. Adam was a trumpet performance major in college and can play many instruments. Yes, they all take turns with the lead, they are all superior vocalists.

[@mrschurch1979]

[quote from Sweet Talk Publicity News article] Approaching the impressive 100 million views mark on KZbin, Home Free continues the momentum with their awe-inspiring video for “How Great Thou Art.” Filmed in the Swiss Alps while overseas for a headline show at the European Country Festival, the video was directed by Fifgen Films’ Reilly Zamer, McKenzie Zamber and Jimmy Bates.

[@rogerwest603]

You are correct, there are 4 Lead Singers and Adam Rupp the Beatboxer! BOTH You and Sarah must React to "American Pie" Featuring Don McLean. Everyone gets a Lead!

[@joanwharff6483]

Their voices take you to Church!!! The Austrian Alps are just too beautiful !!! What a setting ☦️🙏☦️‼️ The harmonies are just too awesome ‼️

[@cheridampier2524]

This is so beautiful and I am always amazed when the beatboxer Adam sings that beautiful tenor All is well. I will suggest Helplessly Hoping for more 5 part perfection

[@m.harrison2151]

You should check out Home Free doing “Amazing Grace” with Peter Hollens! Fabulous! Sarah will love it!! Austin is known as the “Home Free Heart Throb”, according to Tim, and the “sky high power tenor”!!!

[@bingobillable]

This one of the few where Adam Rupp retires his internal drum set and used his tenor voice to bring us 5 part harmony. This was filmed in the Austrian Alps, and there is a making of video that is worth watching in KZbin. If I remember correctly, it names the town this is near. They filmed it during their European tour.

[@mjackson780]

I loved the double bass drop at the end? Perfection.

[@johndeeregreen4592]

That was Tim doing bass at F1 and Chance singing an octave higher at F2 -- very low for someone who normally does baritone. Technically, yes, both are bass notes... Tim is just a subwoofer.

[@markbryan3395]

@@johndeeregreen4592 subwoofer!! 🗣️🔊)))))))))))))))))))))

[@ZaneNicholson]

Tim recorded a version of Can't Help Falling in love many years ago. It is a beautiful version. I highly suggest checking it out. I also suggest checking out home Free live. Not any song in particular, but almost every song of theirs live is awesome

[@randallshuck2976]

Another of theirs you would like is their cover of "In the Blood". A very campy/country cover is "Hillbilly Bone".

[@vickielewallen3799]

In my long life i've heard this song so many times, but have never heard it more beautifully done. It's AMAZING. Thx for this.

[@carty43]

Maybe the most magical moment ever for them was when an outdoor show was called off due to storms, but they and a bunch of the fans rode it out on a pavilion. They decided the "Home Fries" deserved a little something and they performed this without any mikes or enhancement of any kind, and thank Goodness someone filmed it. Major goose bumps: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaC5d4OspZ2JnpY

[@staceysmith8173]

I saw this and it was wonderful

[@MonicaVennell]

Thank you so much for posting this. If this doesn't display their raw talent I don't know what would. I'm in awe. Such a nice thing to do for the fans as well.

[@areese240z]

Country Road Take Me Home another beautiful cover

[@jackmandu]

As others have said this was filmed in the Austrian Alps, near Innsbruck, specifically Kremater Alm, Grinzens. They used a drone for most of the footage.

[@tinanichols203]

Yes, Adam Rupp sings. He has a beautiful voice.

[@rogerwest603]

Tom you really need to Listen to the Talks after the Video is over because you would have heard things that you are asking us about!😁

[@miamidolphinsfan]

I agree, but it looks like he's just not gonna do it

[@hacksaw5918]

Came on to make the same comment!

[@chrisabel1833]

Adam Rupp is the primary beat boxer. Adam Chance "Chance" replaced Adam's brother Chris as the group's baritone when Adam decided to pursue other musical interests. Chance sang bass for Street Corner Symphony. He takes the bass part when Tim sings lead.

[@kristindunstan172]

Home Free really is incredible! When they competed on Season 4 of The Sing-Off, they were billed as the first country a capella band. They do quite a bit of country, but even their non-country songs have a bit of a country vibe to them. Adam and Rob are from Minnesota; Chance is from Alabama; Tim is from Texas; and Austin is from Georgia.

[@tinanichols203]

This is my favorite hymn. The location in th Austrian Alps is the perfect illustration of the of the meaning of this song. Food for the soul

[@lmcbride3355]

May I tease you to try home frees version of when a man loves a woman? Old Percy sledge classic. Incredible take on this! Bring wife for this reaction!

[@louisetemples7011]

Thank you for giving them a chance! They are my favorite group of all! Would you please react to "Adam Rupp Live Solo" He is a multiple times World Champion Beatboxer and Vocal Percussionist. For a total 180 please try" The Butts Remix", "Your Man" Live version, " Cruise" Live from The Sing Off! " Crazy" Live from The Sing Off'!", "Misty Mountains" with Peter Hollens ft Tim Foust!, "In the Blood" John Mayer cover, " Mayday", "I Want Crazy", " Thinking Out Loud/ Let's Get It On" Ed Sheeran/Marvin Gaye cover, "Hillbilly Bone" Live in concert, "My Church" Not a church hymn, don't let the title make you hesitate!, " I Can't Help Falling In Love With You" Tim Foust ( audio- stripped down and he's playing piano! So talented and SMOOTH! IT is FIRE!🔥🔥🔥🍟As you can tell I am way deep in the rabbit hole! Can't help myself! Once you get started you don't want to stop! Sorry/not sorry! Hey Sarah! Welcome to the Home Free family! From a Home Fry 🍟If you consider yourself a fan you are a Home Fry! Are you ready? Thank you!😀

[@tinanichols203]

We should all listen to this more often to get this wonderful appreciation and awe our world.

[@alanrobisonPD1960]

This was definitely filled in the United States, no doubt. They have places in California that that scenery euros match not to mention South Dakota etc. love your channel. Home Free is mind boggling great. Keep the faith guess, greetings from Southern California.

[@johnwillis4706]

Fun fact, In this song Adam Rupp, the beat boxer, is the one singing the very high Alto parts. This was films in the Alps in Austria 🇦🇹.

[@mistermoneyinthebanktylers3111]

Tim Foust has released solo work before he joined Home Free.

[@Spazzmatazzz]

The beatboxer Adam Rupp has a beautiful voice and is also the founder of Home Free.

[@Opa_Andre]

Location where "How Great Thou Art" was filmed I checked the clip Home Free - From The Vault - Episode 8 ("How Great Thou Art") regarding possible information of the filming location. Right at the beginning (0:36) the members are asking their filming guide where they are and are told that they are in "Kematen in Tirol" (in the Tyrolean Alps) which is close to Innsbruck - the capital of the state of Tyrol. So probably they stayed there at a hotel. At 1:01 in that clip you can find an wodden memorial plate from the skiing club "Axams" regarding an avalanche disaster which occured in 1963 and where they are in deep sorrow because one of their ski instructors died. Further research showed that the skiing club "Axams" cottage is the "Adolf-Pichler-Hütte" near the internationally well known "Axamer Lizum" skiing area. From there, they then walked probably around hundred meters / yards uphill, where the filming took place. You can find the exact location here at the website of the cottage. However its in German / Austria, but the coordinates are stated on the page. adolf-pichler-huette.at/lage/ There are even some screenshots on their homepage "Startseite" as well as a youtube link containing an advertisement of the cottage. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXaxeJSGbc2ipaM

[@teresacartwright5406]

Austin Brown (the high tenor) traveled with his father's gospel quartet (and occasionally sang with them) from the time he was young. He tried hard all through college (on a full music scholarship) to nullify his Georgia accent - when he joined Home Free they told him to stop trying.

[@beverlyburch4467]

I saw Home Free in concert in Dallas last December, and they performed this. You could have heard a pin drop at the end. Several folks were in tears, including me. They performed this absolutely beautifully live.

[@sherryarflin726]

Home Free, top tier all the way!!

[@chrismorin1318]

This is one of the few times where Adam is not beatboxing. He was the singer who did the "It is well with my soul" segment. I've watched this video so many times and I get goosebumps every single time. Another 5 part harmony song is Helplessly Hoping by Crosby Stills and Nash. That one is haunting in it's deceptive simplicity. Blue Ain't Your Color gives a bit of Motown flavor. All About That Bass takes a pop song and switches it up. The Sea Shanty Medley is fun and shows why Adam is called the Freak of Nature. A few great collaborations are Children Go Where I Send Thee with Kenny Rogers, Elvira with the Oak Ridge Boys, American Pie with Don McClean, and God Bless the USA with Lee Greenwood and the Airforce Band! This list could go on and on. I have songs I like better than others, but none that I've come close to disliking. Great reaction from both of you. Thank you!

[@KathrynSlama]

I thought the setting is in Switzerland. The US has many beautiful scenic places like Montana’s Glacier National Park, The Grand Tetons in Wyoming, the Sawtooth Mountains in ID, and the Cascade Mountains in WA. You can’t just drive through to appreciate them.

[@rogerwest603]

Tom AND Sarah you must also React to "When A Man Loves A Women"! It's spectacular!

[@teresacartwright5406]

I watched an interview with Tim Fault (with "The Charismatic Voice") - he said he tells other bass singers to sing tenor and - if possible - falsetto. That exploring their high range will help with their bass singing. If you get a chance watch the video of the interview - it's really interesting! This was filmed in the Austrian Alps.

[@macvena]

Their use of counterpoint in their arrangements is very intricate and elaborate, but very tasteful. It makes their renditions so much, much more. Kudos.

[@momD612]

They definitely are a country acapella group. Check out "Thank God I'm a Country Boy". OR "God Blessed Texas". OR "Blue Ain't your color". OR "Elvira"....etc they are amazing.

[@stanrock2225]

This is fire. They are at the top of their game. Their version of Amazing Grace will blow your minds

[@diannemcintyre2773]

It was filmed in the Swiss alps while they did a European tour.

[@vickiadkins9844]

A masterpiece from Home Free!

[@joycemarieosborn]

They ARE country! You can hear it even if it’s not a country song! When you are a Home Fry you will understand better! 🥳🥳🤣🤣

[@justineanglemyer3980]

Loved the reaction! The harmonies were beautiful! Would love to see you react to Home Free and The Oakridge Boys performing Elvira together!

[@danalynch8889]

They stated when they can't decide who leads they all sing the song and they choose who sounds the best for the song.

[@CarlaDelk]

Great reaction! The harmonies in this is out of this world. The talent is outstanding! You should check out their version of "Helplessy Hopeing". Thank you for this reaction.

[@krunoobad7190]

Austrian Alps...just 2 hour drive from my home...beautiful mountains and country

[@jackiestone3468]

Swiss Alps. Beautiful version of this song! Great reaction😊

[@cathymcbride7132]

My favorite..chills every time. I suggest..Mayday

[@DGraham9721]

Home Free consider themselves as a country accapella group and they are the only country accapella group. They do a lot of country songs, but they also take non-country songs and do their own twist on them to give the song the Home Free kind of vibe

[@momD612]

These guys are simply heavely to my ears! I'm so glad y'all are doing these and love it! 💘

[@annforkin8368]

This was filmed in Switzerland when they were on tour!

[@jeffpendleton3969]

you would've had to put me on leash to keep me from going to church on Sunday if i knew these guys were playing

[@nestea8385]

They are the first & only Country a capella group. And in my opinion, the BEST.

[@Prozak63]

I agree with you. I'm more into a state of mind being older to their song "My Church".

[@lisabeebe1863]

Approaching the impressive 100 million views mark on KZbin, Home Free continues the momentum with their awe-inspiring video for “How Great Thou Art.” Filmed in the Swiss Alps while overseas for a headline show at the European Country Festival.

[@sharonmortimer3843]

I didn't know if you noticed that the beatboxer Adam Rupp ponytail sang in this. I love the shock that you had for the song. The two Adam's where on both ends of group. Adam Chance (dark hair) goes by Chance. Tim does have an album out there from when he was doing his solo stuff. Thanks for your reaction.

[@scbane]

Sara, Sarah, looks like one of those angels that put up with us savage guys. Good content, folks, sunscribed and liked.

[@ruthwelton9467]

Home Free recorded this song in Austria

[@riccileighisreal6889]

I keep watching the see Maria Von Trap come swirling thru the hills. (Sound of Music)

[@drieuxkoeppel8152]

This was filmed in the AUSTRIAN ALPS, where they were participating in a music festival. The video was filmed with DRONES!

[@charleneclaassen]

This was the second HF video I watched after stumbling onto their solo cover of God Bless The USA. Still beautiful

[@intermenater]

He gets it. She is fighting the feeling. Notice how her eyes flutter. That's one of the signs of a person being dishonest. Yes, I studied. I have a degree.

[@MonicaVennell]

This is the best version that I have heard. Tim and Adam Chance sound like a church organ when they combine their low notes, the others each have their own moments that are superb, so nice to hear Adam Rupp (beatboxer) singing as well.

[@SharonMcglothlin]

We have these beautiful mountains in Southwest Virginia.

[@jerjoro]

Yes, this is filmed in the Alps. However, you guys need to come out west. I can show you 3 or 4 places in Idaho alone that look exactly like this (Teton, White Clouds,ect)!

[@babyfry4775]

This is so beautiful. It’s the best version of this song I’ve heard. This was filmed in the Austrian Alps when they were touring there although I live in Colorado and it could have been filmed here or in Wyoming, Calif., Montana or Alaska. I half expected Julie Andrews to come out singing “the hills are alive”. Hahaha. Great reaction. Home Free can really sing most anything. Yes, they sing country but they also sing R & B, pop, gospel. If you really like bass listen to the bass Tim Foust sing Misty Mountains (from the Hobbit) with Peter Hollens. He’s another amazing ‘a cappella’ singer and it’s just the two of them....amazing! Great reaction! I subscribed,

[@momD612]

Home Free "Amazing Grace" and "Country Roads". Adam Chance sings some solo. BEAUTIFUL.

[@patriciawoyczik1657]

This is perfection at its finest! Thanks for the reaction! You are right...any one of the 4 guys can take lead....depending on the song! No..you will never find a bad video....they don't have one!

[@helgatornkvizt5412]

There is a behind the scenes video from the filming of this one. It's a really pretty location. May I suggest you react to Woman, amen/female. It's awesome and you get to hear Adam Chance a bit more by himself.

[@davidharrison6695]

We can see the Holy Spirit touching you through this song.

[@Missangie827]

the foot(feet?) tracks in the grass should be a give away as to whether it's a green screen or green grass-lol

[@belindastoltzfus7029]

luv yur reactions yo home free. pls react to them singing amazing grace featuring Peter Hollens. brings tears to my eyes everytime.

[@sandyblack2687]

Perfection!!!!!❤

[@annforkin8368]

He did Angels Among Us! Tim is awesome!

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

Great reaction yall.

[@mistermoneyinthebanktylers3111]

The location is actually in Austria (Swiss Alps).

[@jillchamberlain6478]

You may want to listen to “Brother in Arms”, and look at the video. It is even more powerful than “How Great They Art”

[@janethoffman4197]

Beautiful, I get chills every time!

[@charleneclaassen]

I totally love their video's of DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR, ANGELS WE HAVE HEARD ON HIGH AND O' HOLY NIGHT.

[@reneschaflein7910]

Trophy earned for the worst possilbe moments to stop :D

[@hazelcampbell2779]

Great reaction guys

[@hellefur6631]

Your georgeous wife nailed it, because they all are extremly talented singers in their own right. Together they make magic. To those a lead for a song, they will have a tryout, and then decide who sings the lead, or who sings witch part. Austin wrote "Cold hard cash", and wanted Rob to sing it, but the rest chose him to sing, and that was the perfect choice. Edit: Tim has a solo album "The best that I could do". His cover of "Can't help falling in love" is amazing, wery much worth listning too.

[@staceysmith8173]

Tum is coming out with another album. He's just not sure when it will be released. He's hoping for this year

[@lindafuller4542]

It was filmed in the Swiss Alps

[@PrinceJediMaster]

They shot this in the Alps.

[@charnydegger3267]

I'm sure opera is out there fir you too, but if you want to hear Robs talent, listen to Nessum Dirma with Austin. Rob is classically trained, Austin is theatre's trained. They recorded separately but when Austin heard Robs recording,, Austin prerecorded his parr.

[@loririchards8121]

It was filmed is the Swiss Alps! Try David Phelps with the Gaithers "Let Freedom Ring" and by himself "We Shall Behold Him". HE IS known as the best tenor in the world.

[@marcsteiner9189]

they are in the austian alps ... so a nice location there

[@1aleckman1]

It was filmed in the Swiss Alps while overseas for a headline show at the European Country Festival,

[@tomaskennedy]

Incredible version of that song, and the video is perfection.

[@glennspreeman1634]

suppose the mountains nodded in appreciation and approval?

[@SquawFox]

To hear Adam Chance (aka Chance) take lead Home Frees cover of Ed Sheeran's "Castle On The Hill" and their original "Dive Bar Saints" are 2 great ones or one of their newer one's would be "Sea Shanty Medley" it's a fun one.

[@lindajohnson6368]

How can anyone not KNOW GOD CREATED our world when hearing this song!!!???? JESUS IS SO WONDERFUL and years and years HE is still being worshipped!!🥰

[@toodlescae]

No there is no other a Capella group in country music. Just Home Free.

[@rayfaircloth8253]

This was filmed in Austria

[@diannakroeger9936]

This was filmed in Austria.

[@mistermoneyinthebanktylers3111]

Interestingly, none of the 3 Home Free, Pentatonix, or VoicePlay, formed in the usual manner. The original members of VoicePlay were part of their college Acapella group, but the way they really formed is they all worked together at an amusement park. Pentatonix literally formed for the Sing Off and then won it. Home Free has the most unique formation story. It's actually too long to include hear. You can look it up on Wikipedia. I will tell you the band name comes from a boat that the original lead singer's grandfather had, because he funded the bands first tour.

[@cdmobley1]

Adam Rupp is the one with the super high voice.
