Voice Coach Reacts | HOME FREE | Featuring AVI KAPLAN of Pentatonix | RING OF FIRE Johnny Cash Cover

[@Yooperbuzz1]

Home Free is the "other" group that is rewriting the book on a capella worldwide. For Home Free may I recommend their "Man of Constant Sorrow" (Dick Burnett), and my favorite, "Helplessly Hoping" (Crosby, Stills & Nash) (and then a quarantined Italian Youth Choir's cover of Home Free's arrangement) and all the rest of the suggestions. They are all great.

[@Mark_E_M]

I recommend that one as well...AMAZING!!!

[@ChrisPage68]

Hellscore are doing that with their A Capella Metal covers.

[@martinhafner2201]

And Pentatonix was the winner of the 3rd Sing Off. That's just twice world champion beatboxer Adam Rupp. He does drum solos now and then at live concerts and a couple of them are on YT. Search for Adam Rupp Drum Solo. And 2 basses in this collaboration! Besides having 2 different bass flavors on solos, this means there is good bass coverage while the other one is soloing. Pentatonix handles this because Scott can reach bass even though he is technically a baritone/tenor. Listen closely in Hallelujah and you can spot Scott swinging down so Avi can start his solo.

[@suarez1four]

Man of Constant Sorrow by Home Free!!!

[@stanbannmusic8334]

Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole!! They are amazing as you've just discovered. But ... you haven't even scratched the surface! For example, Tim's last note here is a G1; G0 is his lowest recorded note. Adam Rupp's beatboxing is off the charts (check out one of his live drum solos!) and his vocal arranging is fantastic (their "Do You Hear What I Hear" is my favorite tour de force of theirs ... listen for the "five octaves in five seconds" moment and some subwoofer ear candy from our Mr. Foust!). The things they've been able to do while in quarantine are stunning (e.g. "Down To The Honkytonk", "Moonshine", and "Meet In The Middle" to name just three gems). To hear them in their live element I suggest "Go Rest High On That Mountain" (the Country Rebel Church Sessions ... all them in one take sitting in a church). You NEED to check out Darren Rust's (their producer, engineer, and oft times arranger) glorious "How Great Thou Art" and "Auld Lang Syne" settings. Keep the Home Free Home Fry home fires burnin'!

[@michaelmclane8501]

Stan Bann Music The singoff version is lower than G0

[@stanbannmusic8334]

@@michaelmclane8501 I respectfully disagree. Yes, the Ring of Fire Sing-Off version is a half step lower so that last note is an F#1. The G0 I was referring to was the start of his upward slide on a live version of "Your Man". The octave numberings run C to C with C1 being the lowest C on the keyboard and middle C being C4. The A0 on "Sold" is the lowest note on a standard piano.

[@ivermectin1908]

When someone says their Bass is really nice, and you already know what is coming at the end LOL.

[@KillerTruffle]

Some Home Free must-hears (note that in 2016, one member, Chris Rupp, left to go solo, and Adam Chance joined to replace him - lots of people get confused about the inconsistency in members): *Man of Constant Sorrow* - Do you want to hear vocal harmonicas and jaw harps? Because you'll hear vocal harmonicas and jaw harps. This and Ring of Fire are their two top songs. *How Great Thou Art* - Some of the most clean, fantastic blending, and Adam (the beatboxer) actually sings as well. *In the Blood* - another beautiful song with great blends and clean notes. *Everybody Walkin' This Land* - Not only a great, powerful rendition of the song, but relevant to today's cultural climate, with a great short commentary after the song. *Down to the Honkytonk* - Tim goes low. As in low. *Country Fried Pop Medley* - 15 pop songs fairly seamlessly mashed into a country song. *The Butts Remix (a.k.a. Butts Medley)* - Yes, it's all kinds of songs about butts, from a variety of genres, but it's tastefully done, funny, and is still respectful to women by not objectifying them in the video. *Mayday* - save this until you're fairly familiar with each member of the group and their singing roles. If you don't know the members, half the impact of this song is lost (but it's a good song either way). There are lots more that are totally worth hearing too - every one of these guys just blends so perfectly with the group, they're definitely among the best acapella groups out there.

[@hyphenanne9072]

I like this list of recommendations. definitely agree that Mayday should only be recommended/listen to when you are already familiar with everyone's voices

[@glennspreeman1634]

Auld Lange Syne is probably the best harmony ever in civilized history! all good!

[@pnwcruiser]

Home Free even makes that simple tune sound spectacular.

[@jessicalee5260]

Totally agree! Their harmonies in that song are like butter! So smooth and seamless!

[@jguest5856]

The best I have ever heard that song. I didn't even like it until I heard Home Free cover it.

[@joshrodgers7206]

They crush this song!!

[@dwayanesmith59]

Adam The beatboxed does a solo in every show it is amazing. There is a video of it on KZbin and for 5 minutes it’s just Adam making you say whiskey tango foxtrot at what he can do. Love your insight on the song not everyone does a breakdown like that. Love it!

[@jeronougues]

You should most definitely listen to more of them, they have a wide and varied catalogue of music to listen to (although all with their country-ish signature sound) and I'm 100% sure you'll enjoy them just as much as you did with this one. Tim also has some amazing collabs with other acapella artists worth checking out.

[@terryhenderson3490]

This is what your type of KZbin channel for , i've never heard of these guys before and without you i may have missed them . Hearing you deconstruct the music for us tone deaf People is wonderful . Your channel has helped us get through this Covid 19 lockdown . Thank you again from the UK

[@hyphenanne9072]

Oh, you have to check out Home Free's channel as well! They got a lot of music to choose from, thou they are country, they also cover some pop songs, like All about that bass, cant stop the feeling and castle in the hill. Im a new Home Fry and their songs/vids makes me smile during this time. Check out their "quarantine" videos. They are fun and well made even thou they are not together physically recording their songs.

[@EarlJohn61]

This is a tune that suits the phrase Double Bass! There are some videos out with Home Free performing live in concerts across the States... To get a read on how they sing together without guiding headphones you should check out some of them.

[@MichaelMollard]

I was lucky enough to see them live in Australia before the shut down. Their voices are just that good, nowhere to hide in a live show. You really won't find a bad song in their catalogue, but I often refer people to their Christmas carols for incredible arrangements and harmonies. Have a listen to 'Do you hear what I hear?' 😁

[@douglasloss]

If you want to hear the best sonic blending from them, listen to "How Great Thou Art." And perhaps "Helplessly Hoping." You will find they have over 110 videos, all of them wonderful.

And that live version is even lower than this one!

[@michaelmclane8501]

Vampjager I hope you reply to Vampjager in this thread after you hear the “lower live version” in the Singoff video. I also wanted you to expound on “production” in comparing the two versions.

[@michaelmclane8501]

I think the “reggae” feel is coming from the beat boxer, not sure. The Johnny Cash version is not “reggae”. It is not obvious to me how they can both be the same song, or is it an illusion without much difference? Help?

[@DennisKovacich]

Michael McLane, there are many videos on KZbin of people playing familiar songs in ragtime style. It’s still the same song, but with a different arrangement.

Normally, "Mayday" should be 6+ songs into a person's journey down the Home Free rabbit hole, but an experienced voice coach picks up the range and quality of the voices immediately--as was the case with this reaction.

Christi, what a superb reaction! You almost effortlessly combine musical insights and artistic analysis, with such an honest appreciation and joyous celebration of the skills and music being created! We are so blessed to have new talented a cappella groups like Home Free, Voice Play and Pentatonix to explore. Home free has over a 100 videos and almost everyone is a stellar re-imaging and creative interpretation of the music they are covering... Treat reaction to them like how you'd savor a good wine...LOL...enjoy them thoughtfully...new works they've created/covered like Everybody Walkin' This Land and "I Still Can't Find What I'm looking feature peformances with their patrons that are stunning and some of their classics like "helplessly hoping" and cover they did of John Mayer's "In the Blood" are just artistry of highes order...I think you'd really enjoy the "Still Can Find What I'm Looking for..." with Peter Colens though...enjoy...there's so much wonderful good performances to explore

[@michelle32855]

Love your observation regarding Avi's voice. Others, including Tim, have a greater range, but there's that resonance and tone to Avi's, and lows are great, but his mid range has that gorgeous, melodic feel, like chocolate, rich and smooth :)

Ms Bovee, thank you! for this wonderfully insightful and delightful reaction!

Fantastic reaction! Thank you! Expect an invasion of Home Fries, the Home Free fan base, coming your way :) We are passionate about our guys and we come in swarms to new Home Free reactors. I highly recommend listening to Do You Hear What I Hear next for some beatboxing extraordinaire. Honestly, whichever song you choose by Home Free you can't go wrong, but hold on with Mayday until you know the guys of the group a bit more. Good to know when digging into them a bit more is that their baritone here, Chris Rupp, left the group in May 2016 and Adam Chance, goes by Chance, replaced him.

No, the word that comes to mind for me on Avi's voice is chocolate. Warm, rich, almost liquid with a touch of dark cherry liquor. You can put it on a decadent desert, or... roll in it. Ok, time to stop right there before this becomes naughty. With your profession I'm sure you'll appreciate Home Free doing "Helplessly Hoping" and "Auld Lang Syne". The noise guy here is not just a beatboxer. He call it Percussionist, but he does crickets, harmonicas, wind, nearly anything. He's not human. He's an alien and communicates with sound effects that the other group members understand.

"We want to you to be able to sing without any constraints."

The only instrument present is Adam's voice. Now that is versatility.

[@drieuxkoeppel8152]

The beatboxer for Home Free is Adam Rupp. He and his brother, Chris, (hat in this video) co-founded Home Free in their dorm room in 2001. Along the way, they found Rob Lundquist (lyric tenor); Austin Brown (lead tenor, he sang at the beginning of this track), and bass extraordinaire, Tim Foust. Chris Rupp left the group in 2016 to go solo, and was replaced with the superb Adam Chance, (aka “Chance”, to distinguish him from Adam Rupp). Adam Rupp is considered one of the best beatboxers working today. He’s won numerous beatboxing competitions! Adam is the only original member of Home Free still with the band! He’s phenomenal!

[@mateusbelmontedossantos1019]

Hi. There is another acapella group called Pentatonix. Avi kaplan is from this group. Has two very interesting songs, the first is "Hallelujah" where you will find a beautiful vocal arrangement. The second song is "Silent Night" in it you will find beautiful harmonies. Both songs have live performances. And thank you for the reaction videos, I learned a lot.

The natural progression of one's introduction to Home Free (which I'm sure has already been suggested many times already) next moves on to "Man of Constant Sorrow," which has an insane vocal sounds-like-an-instrument fill. I also love their cover of "Friends in Low Places" but I don't see as many people recommending it just yet. On a similar note, Voiceplay's "Oogie Boogie Song" is amazing as well and I'd highly suggest it!

[@twaited5860]

Produced? Yeah, well maybe in the studio, but I’ve seen them live, once the day after I saw a five piece band with two great singers from the TV show Nashville, both in the same venue. The Nashville show was great, but Home Free blew their doors off. Tim’s bass can give you palpitations. Keep listening!

[@grimgrinningtracy9157]

You will most definitely love going down the Home Free rabbit hole and will have develop the same crush on them that we have with the wide variety of songs already suggested and those you will see just by looking at their list "All About that Bass", "Flowers On the Wall" , my, I could list so many . Speaking of basses, don't leave Geoff out. There is one more a cappella group that will equally knock your socks off, Voice Play and their subharmic C1-A5 range bass, Geoff Castellucci. Once you get to them you must see "Oogie Boogie's song" from Nightmare before Christmas, Moana medley, Queen medley, "Can't Help falling in Love", and with you being a studio musician, you must watch "Just Sing", a quarantine collaboration with multiple singers.

Excited!

Tim gets truly deep in their rendition of "Do You Hear What I Hear", at the end of the third verse.

Hi Christi, glad you did Home Free. About 5 years ago, a friend of mine invited me to one of their concerts, here in Silver Spring Maryland. I knew about Sing Off but really had not heard them. Well, they were amazing, a great concert. Also, my friend had premium Meet-and-greet tickets; so we spent an hour with them at 6 pm. And they were not very well known, so the meet-and-greet was pretty small and personal. They seem like fine people, fun to hang with. And as a bonus, they told us right away that we meet-and-greet folks would have a "special bonus" that none of the concert goers would get. Of course, we wondered - well, gee, what ? And as it ended , we had to laugh - but of course - after all, they are an a cappella group. They sang a complete song for us, that was from their catalogue but was not part of the concert. Cute

And Adam their beat boxer is among the world’s best and has won and placed high in contests.

[@libertarianguy5567]

Adam Rupp, the beatboxer has won first place in vocal percussionist titles from both the Denver and Chicago National Harmony Sweepstakes. He really is phenomenal. I'm actually an Avi Kaplan fan, but found Home Free when he did this video with them.

[@AnnieNYC1]

Such a lovely performance! Loved that song when I first watched them sing it, and loved your delight during the reaction to it. Goosebumps are totally befitting such loveliness and fun. Can't not smile listening to this. Now if only my belly will climb back up from my ankles where it slid to with that final low low sound... (Curious what frequency it is... 75hz...?) 😁

Also, check out Home Free drum solo

[@catycudd5614]

avi Kaplan. the best bass in the world. so rich and smooth. and oh so sexy like he is..lol

[@AndreVandal]

Faust in an interview mentioned always training his voice in the high range has helped him immensely in the low range

[@justlinsu]

Loved watching you react to this.....Love these guys....I am a huge fan of Avi Kaplan....will have to check out what you've reacted to with Avi. Home Free will excite you too....Liked and Subcribed ps your sound on your channel is excellent too

[@margaretervin8895]

Home Free's Tim Foust has a 10 octive range, he can blow out speakers in concert

[@VJ_9014]

Great reaction/analysis! Loved it! They are all so good individually as well as their tight tight tight harmony!! Hope you do more! For absolute earcandy, & to really appreciate their skill, check out their "Helplessly Hoping", Can't Outrun You, or "Auld Lang Syne". Thx!!

[@ad9aggie]

After some of the ones suggested, Home Free's Mayday cover will blow your mind.

[@firemarshallj]

You now know of Pentatonix & Home Free, the last A Capella group in the trifecta is VoicePlay. They also have a terrific bass, Geoff. He can as low as Avi & Tim, maybe lower...

[@TheZacheryMantis]

Home Free Man of Constant Sorrow. Most definitely.
