VOCAL COACH REACTS - HOME FREE FT. AVI KAPLAN - Ring Of Fire

This time we will look into collaboration of Home Free and Avi Caplan and their cover of Ring of Fire, popular song from Johnny Cash! This is my favorite performance from them on vocal coach reacts and I honestly love how amazing this combo is! I love when musicians come together and share their uniqueness.

if you are watching this, you are the cutest bean! And I hope you will have the best winter morning tomorrow with hot coffee, snuggled in warmth inside while you watch little snowflakes falling down on your window.

[@DennisKovacich]

I hope you don’t mind if I forgo the coffee. And snow almost never happens in San Francisco!

[@billsanderson1442]

That sounds exactly like tomorrow morning here in Ottawa.

[@MrBeaker1158]

Coffee..check...cold..check..snow.not here in Mobile but there was sone a few hours from here last night. Loved the reaction Katriinka. Check out home Free, go rest high on that mountain and Tennessee Christmas. .

We are getting a lovely dusting of snow here in Colorado.

That subscriber count is amazing. I remember when you hit 20K. You’ve earned it. Looking forward to the 100K celebration. Also. I am the cutest bean. Thank you for noticing.

[@umphreak9999]

Avi is soul, R&B; silky, buttery amaretto. Tim is country, folk; smooth, clean whiskey. Avi's the blanket, Tim's the fire

[@softshoes]

So many Home Free Christmas songs to react too. You can't pick a bad one.

[@Katriinka]

I cant wait really haha :)

For New Years... Auld Lang Syne by Home Free is perfect!

[@BSGNative]

Check out Home Free's "Do You Hear What I Hear". It was arranged by Adam Rupp, the beatboxer, so it features some amazing percussion. And at one point, Tim drops several octaves in just a few seconds. Really beautiful version of the song.

[@mickoldbear3008]

I agree, it's really atmospheric as well....as a side point, and If I remember rightly, in one of the home free videos there is a section of pure Adam Rupp on one of their stage shows.

[@Katriinka]

oh he had his own arrangement?! That sounds amazing! :)

[@mickoldbear3008]

@@Katriinka hi, there are many clips of Adam but to my shame I can't find the one I saw ages ago.... He was introduced by Tim I think....any way have a good look round, I seriously think that he must have swallowed a drumset as a kid... 😂. Found this link.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIjWk3dtq8iqnpY Enjoy.

Oh yes! Their arrangement is insane in DYHWIH... literally gives me chills every time I hear it!

[@DamselDebICT]

Yes, Yes, Yes!

[@eddiewilkinson9794]

Delightful as always Katriinka, I knew you would like this one. If you want to hear Tim Vibrate again check out "Misty Mountains" with Tim and Peter Hollens.

[@Katriinka]

ooh I love that song! Really need to check it out :)

[@tommyoliver7399]

When he hit that low note all the male crocodiles in Australia gave up and got out the water.

[@muhest]

@@Katriinka I did search your channel for your reaction but couldn’t find it. Just like you I am totally in awe of voices going so low it’s more felt than heard. If you didn’t react to Misty Mountains yet, I just wanted to provide the link to the YT-video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5OVeYVqbNOje7c If you already did react to this, I guess this is sort of redundant. And I just have to search your channel more intensely, I guess. 😉 Love your reactions.

[@AnarchistPanda161]

Loved your facial expression on Tims final note :D Home Free is always a win ^^

[@larrywt656]

I really LOVE this version. It's so obvious they're all having a great time singing the song. I know Avi and Tim are good friends, but it's so nice to see and hear two of the best bass singers in the world actually performing together. And I know this was recorded at the time when Avi was going thru a lot of personal issues that ultimately led to his departure from Pentatonix, so seeing him smiling and having fun in this video does my heart good, as I feel a real kindred spirit with him.

[@Yooperbuzz1]

Home Free - "Helplessly Hoping" (Crosby, Stills & Nash) One of my favorites.

[@Katriinka]

thank you for recommendation! :)

[@terrinpeterson9899]

I second this decision, please, make this happen, pure acapella goodness. 😌

[@Cybrdfndr]

@@Katriinka I totally approved this recommendation :D

[@DamselDebICT]

Absolutely!! MUST listen. It's perfection.

[@farrellschultz1111]

Yes there's multiple live performances of theirs that you can watch in which Tim went so low that it was shaking the camera recording it and others in which he blew out the speakers. Tim's low register is unbelievable. Avi changing to the cowboy hat at the end was a tip of the hat to Tim who actually gave him tips on how to reach his lower register. There's a lot of respect between them.

[@darrellbeam8053]

Watched a video recently that revealed that during this, Tim showed Avi techniques to go deeper. Just thought that was fun.

[@tmt7265]

What a beautiful reaction. Your dancing and inthusiasm made this so enjoyable. Thank you

[@ChristopherJonesEM]

Awesome! I am so looking forward to it!!! Love Home Free and they have so many good songs. I enjoy going down this rabbit hole again and again. Glad to see Katriika’s reaction!

[@Katriinka]

This is definitely not my last reaction to them! I love listening to their pieces! :)

[@dansbambino]

Tim has also been known to make pieces of the ceiling fall, so that's a thing🔥🔥

[@jamescurfman3284]

ACTUALLY bringing the house down. Okay then. :D

[@SIR-DanielHunter]

Tim's bass is real I seen them live he hit that low g1 note and held it. You could fill it resonate through your whole body.

[@cydrych]

Can’t wait to see the reaction.

[@ddoggphx]

The jaw drop was priceless.

[@timhenrickson9653]

Always fun to watch someone analyze a song that makes them happy. It really brings out their passion along with their joy for music!

[@mikeruch2078]

You are amazing! Sweet and lovely!

[@dreyhawk]

They came up with this arrangement while on the show Sing off. The judges really got a kick out of the choice to give it a reggae beat.

[@pzmich53]

I also think Helplessly Hoping showcases their vocal skills in a different way. And if you want to round out the holiday feel, check out their version of Auld Lang Syne.

[@call4906]

got to eventually make it to geoff castelluccii or however you spell his last name from voiceplay! his solo stuff like "Blackbird" is amazing

*Geoff Castellucci You were really close 😂

I recommend Home Free's cover of "rest high on that mountain" it is a very emotional song.

[@kendallmoody4309]

Gotta do “Do You Hear What I Hear” by home free

[@MrNord2002]

Avi and Tim getting the ladies with just their voices. Wish I had that talent.

[@aqhan]

I can sing all of the low notes, apart from the Tim's last one. But I'm getting there :) I enjoy incredibly much to sing along with them and it tickles me in all the right ways to see how long I can keep up with the baso profundo masters like Tim, Avi and Geoff.

[@BigWelshMike]

I can get the lowest note but I definitely need to clean it up and have better lungs to sustain it. It’s great fun trying his parts of the song. My high notes are a train wreck in comparison. 😂

[@hamblinta]

Adam is a very talented beat boxer...he’s a full percussion section and more! Nice reaction!

[@TheRealXesc]

Katriinka, we really need some reactions from Home Free from you - and you do too! ;-)

[@alanward9660]

Great reaction to a great cover! Thanks for doing this one and all the best to you! Stay safe and keep the acapella reactions coming!

[@Kenshin60]

great song and a great reaction. If I need joy I watch your reactions Katrinka. You're always smiling in your videos and that makes it worth the watch.

[@dreyhawk]

I want a song with all three basso profondo singers in it! Tim, Avi, and Geoff all singing together.

[@lonnieball3002]

Another good one is one of their quarantine edition songs is The Statler Brothers "Flowers on the Wall". They paid respect to the Statler Brothers bass Harold Reid.

[@trentfox6436]

I love how Tim is able to sing as high as he does then drop to the basement

[@rogerwest603]

What? No Batman Shirt this time? I'm Kidding!!! I LOVE watching your reactions to Home Free especially! Your smile is contagious! Love that you picked up on Avi's "ode" to Home Free with the Cowboy Hat! Not many Reactors have picked up on it! I also LOVE that Avi smiles, I think twice, in the video kinda to appreciate the dueling Bass lines between him and Tim!! LOVE both guys! Rob's Tenor & Auston's High Tenor is almost hidden between the AWESOMENESS OF Adam and the Bassists! Great Video! Cheers to you and I hope that you have a wonderful Christmas and Festive Season!

[@drewmartinlive]

I’m glad you finally reacted to this! I knew your jaw would drop on the last note! I still can’t believe Tim sustained a G1 for that long! Hitting it is one thing, sustaining it takes a huge amount of breath... Happy holidays gorgeous!

[@joanwharff6483]

You need to do “How Great Thou Art “...it’s just beautiful !!! They do an incredible job!!!!

[@donnilloyd1355]

One of the best Home Free videos out there. I love it. Tim hitting that G1 at the end, AMAZING! He does go Lower than that in other songs, but somehow it doesn't sound as low as this. LMAO. But THIS Post, GREAT. I've been waiting for you to react to this. Thank you, Katriinka.

[@hellefur6631]

One of the parts I love in this arrangement, is that Austin can show of, some of his clasical training. It's georgeous.

[@babyfry4775]

Loved your reaction! This is a good one and you’re right, it’s nice to have Avi and Home Free collaborate. Peter Hollens, another ‘a cappella’ singer collaborate quite a bit. He has a couple of songs with Home Free but has several songs with Tim Foust. I think you would love those. He does Misty Mountains (from the movie the Hobbit), Sound of Silence, Greensleeves, Bridge over Troubled Waters and more. To hear great beatboxing and low notes try Do You Hear What I Hear that was arranged by the beatboxer Adam Rupp. It’s tremendous. How Great Thou Art, Auld Lang Syne, Seven Bridges Road, Country Road, Helplessly Hoping for great harmonies. You won’t be disappointed. Keep reacting!

[@patrickwilenchik1718]

Hi Katriinka😁 I love home free and you are adoreable🤪 For a change maybe Franco Corelli from the 1960s, beautiful very dynamic and much more powerful than Pavarotti who I am also fond of. Nessun Dorma from Turandot will make people sit and listen. The beauty of this tenors voice and his dynamic power is unbelievable, to me he was the last of the great tenors. I think it would get many likes. Ps I think Tim has the warmest base voice home free are great. 🌹🌹🌹😁🇬🇧

[@blueberrystar7877]

Adam has a video of him beatboxing alone its called Adam Rupp Drum Solo

[@danielg6566]

It's totally bogus. Adam is a cyborg from the future sent to save our world from boring music! I mean, what's more likely? That he's that amazing, or that he's a cyborg? Cyborg is a safer bet. Haha

[@richarddixon4303]

My wife and I love your reactions your so intertaining to watch plus you being a singer yourself you break it down so we'll even people that don't sing can understand it so glad we found your channel bless you every day in all things 🎶🎵❤️

In the early days, Avi was also known to blow speakers. Fortunately, both groups have since learned to either take their own equipment, or check it all before they sing. ;)

Something to add to your ever-growing list of "hey, listen to this" reaction requests, let me throw out Peter Hollens and Home Free and their version of U2's "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For". It's about the only one that I recommend...if only because everyone else has requested everything else. But, yeah.

[@JeffreyCrisp]

Amazing reaction Kat! To get your Tim fix on, I would suggest Misty Mountain with Peter Hollens or Hillybilly Bone. If your looking for five part harmony, I would like to suggest How Great Thou Art and their CSN cover of Helplessly Hoping both of which show Adam Rupp's singing ability. After those I would then suggest Mayday.

[@DavidTateVA]

I am totally baffled by the idea that "Ring of Fire" would be somehow associated with Christmas. Bizarre. But I loved your reaction anyway.

[@chrisd7047]

In itself it doesn't, but she associates it with Christmas because it's a Johnny Cash song, and his songs remind her of Christmas. And, really, she gave herself and all of us a present. We don't need to understand it, we just need to enjoy it and the spirit with which it was given.

Tim's been known to blow out sub-woofer speaker cones, and once during a concert, he brought down a chunk of the ceiling onto the stage!

[@Kiwichick138]

I think the tipping of Avi's hat is his way of respecting Tims lower register at the end.

[@speedskater1947]

I think Avi is giving a signal of appreciation for Tim hitting that note so low.

[@jasoneaheart6437]

Also the hat change was an homage to Johnny Cash. He wore a black cowboy hat a lot of the time.

[@briankamerath338]

They came up with this arrangement when they were competing on Season 4 of The Sing-Off. If you haven't reacted to those performances yet, preferably with the judges' comments, you may want to consider doing that. The judges called this country, a capela, reggae.
