His name is Austin Brown. Yes, he was raised in the church, so has a gospel background. He also studied musical theatre, there are videos of him singing Bring Him Home from Les Miserable out there. He has his own channel where he releases his solo work, both covers and originals. For something different, you might watch his solo video of a song he wrote about the work ethic he was raised with called Earn It. Oh, there’s also a great story out there about how Austin ended up in Home Free. The group has existed for over twenty years. Basically, Home Free was playing a concert when Austin was working the cruise ships. One of Austin’s coworkers knew some Home Free guys and warned them about this really excitable guy who was coming to the concert. Sure enough, Austin was so blown away by Tim Foust (the bass) in particular, that he swore then and there he HAD to be in Home Free one day. The rest is history!

Not quite. Home Free were guest artists on the ship where Austin was featured singer. It was always the case that the resident artists and the guests took in each other's shows on the ship, and in this case they were mutually impressed. He and Tim got drunk together, but it was Rob who particularly impressed him and who told him that there was likely to be a vacancy coming up. The actual story from their own lips is on the History of Home Free on Chris Rupp's channel. Btw No-one said that Austin was "really" excitable - just a little.

My only recommendation is hold off on reacting to “Mayday” until you’ve reacted to at least 10 of their other songs and know all of their names. I’ve been waiting for another Home Free reaction for a while so I’m so glad you made your way back to them. Also, their original songs are amazing too so give “Dive Bar Saints” a listen too.

His voice is amazing. You have to listen to some of his solo stuff but any Home Free song is going to be good. Try their cover of End of the Road, or Blue Aint Your Colour, or My Church, or Crazy, or their mash up of Thinking out loud/Let's get it on. To see their more humourous side, check out their Butts Remix or All about that Base. It wont matter what you pick, you will be impressed either way. They are amazingly talented.

Love Austin Brown and he does this song more than justice. However the original by PERCY SLEDGE, released in 1966 was a huge hit on the POP charts AND R&B charts and the soul he put into it can't be matched. Percy and his band mates wrote this after his girl left him. One of the most perfect songs ever written and I bet most men can relate to the song. You should listen to the original official audio version of this classic.

They are phenomenal and hearing their version never tears me away from loving the original. In fact, they usually perform hits as an homage to the original singers such as End of the Road (masterful), American Pie with the original writer/singer, Don McLean, and Blue Ain’t Your Color with their own twist. They have a lot of dedicated fans who follow them and their reactors!

They also did a wonderful version of "Ring of Fire", "Love Train," "Some Girls Do," and so many others. You can't go wrong with Home Free. Austin Brown sings lead on this one. He has his own KZbin channel and his version of Etta James' "At Last" is incredibly beautiful. Tim Foust (the deep bass), does a duet of "Misty Mountains" with Peter Hollens that will blow you away. The last note on that song sounds like it came from deep within the earth.

When Christmas gets closer, "Beautiful Star of Bethlehem" again featuring the Oak Ridge Boys "O Holy Night", "Warmest Winter". They are especially good with comedic songs, "Butts Remix", "Champaign Taste on a Beer Budget", "Sea Shanty Medley", and "Never Gonna Give You Up" just to name a few.

Adam Rupp(percussion) and his brother Chris founded the group when they were in college, about 20 yrs ago. Rob Lundquist, lead tenor da(glasses and beard) joined in 2008(if I remember correctly). These 3 are from Minnesota. Tim Foust,bass with a 5 octave range(dark hair) joined next, he’s from Texas. Austin Brown,high tenor( lead singer in this video) joined in 2012. He’s from Georgia. In 2013 they won “The Sing-off “, an a cappella TV competition. In 2016 Chris Rupp left to pursue a solo career, and he hand picked his replacement, Adam Chance,baritone/bass with a 4 octave range(dark hair with beard). He is from Alabama. They’re all highly trained musicians. It would be great if you checked out songs that highlight each of them. “End of the Road “ is a MUST, with Rob taking the lead. He digs deep into his soul on this. “I Can’t Outrun You”, Adam Chance lead that will hit your heart…he also directed the video. “Your Man”, Tim lead. You heard what Austin can do today. And it would be worth watching one of the concert videos of Adam Rupp doing a drum solo. He is truly the heartbeat of the group. They are quite talented individually, but together they’re heavenly. There are many more to suggest, but if you start with these you’re on your way. “End of the Road “ is the perfect follow up to this.

The main singer and vocals of this song, his name is Austin, and all of them in their own rights. Have beautiful voices, and they do blend very very well together. It’s just amazing that these young folks are trying to keep the arts of various kinds still active it’s a blessing to us all. Thank you for sharing you take care and be safe. Take care of your Beautiful little family.❤🤠

The whole group is filled with amazing singers but Austin Brown is the lead on this. He also has his own channel and he has held contests where fans could win a personal concert in the fan's backyard.

"How Great Thou Art" is a must. In a completely direction would be "Butts Remix" for some fun. You really can't go wrong with anything you pick from them.

Some other songs that I HIGHLY recommend you check out by Home Free are "Butts Medley", "My Church" and for Christmas time, "Do You Hear What I Hear". A solo song from Austin Brown (the lead in this video) that I think you guys would flip over is "At Last" where he sings the song in the same key in which Etta James sang it. All of these guys can and do sing lead in different songs. It just depends on whose voice is more suited to the arrangement. Adam Rupp (the beatboxer) doesn't like the limelight and it's very rare to hear him sing, although he sounds like an angel when he does.

They have so many good ones it’s hard to narrow down suggestions. I like their funny stuff so the Butts Remix/Medley is a must.

Yesssss Home Free just NAILED IT...as they always d, and on top of that this was a quarantine cover they did. Others to check out from Home Free, ...of course HOW GREAT THOU ART...you'll be going to church again, a collab with Oeter Hollens on a a U2 song, I Still haven't found what I'm looking for. As for this masterpiece the lead is is *AUSTIN BROWN* , and he even has his own channel and has done some solo stuff, including his own music...but his covers include, Unchained Melody, At Last (the Etta James cover), Put your head on my shoulder (Paul Anka cover), Signed, sealed, delivered (Stevie Wonder cover), My Maria (BW Stevenson cover), Neon Moon (Brooks & Dunn cover) & Tears in Heaven (Eric Clapton cover) and an original If I met you now, that he co-wrote.

Absolutely loved your reaction to this and would love to see you do more Home Free. I don’t think you’d be disappointed whatever you pick but for suggestions - they do a brilliant cover of End of the Road where Rob takes the lead, Helplessly Hoping is a stunning 5 part harmony, All About That Bass, Butts Medley and Country Fried Pop Medley show off their humorous side, Everybody Walking This Land is incredibly impactful and since Rob mentioned Boondocks in this reaction their mashup of Fishin’ in the Dark/ Down to the Boondocks is great. Oh and for more Austin he has a beautiful cover of Tears in Heaven on his solo channel.

Loved loved loved your reaction to Home Free!!! Austin is amazing! He is actually from Tifton, Georgia, and moved to Nashville with his dad to start a career....while in Nashville he got a job singing on a cruise ship and the other guys in the band were on the ship doing shows. They weren't called Home Free at the time. They weren't looking for another singer at the time but they kept in touch. When one of the original founders of the band decided to get out to help his wife raise their new baby they called Austin to come join them. He just makes me melt hearing him sing.
@patriciamcl542 жыл бұрын
Not quite - Austin went from Tifton to the University of Kentucky to study musical theatre on scholarship. He then went to LA and sang at various venues before spending several years on the cruise ships. The other guys were a guest act.
