Those loving looks are real. Austin was singing to his girlfriend who was in the studio just off camera. There aren't enough adjectives to describe Home Free. They need their own. Homfredian: wicked talent polished by decades of hard work.

I'm glad you mentioned hard work. I'm always a little pissed when comments praise their god-given talents but don't give credit to how long they must have trained themselves to become the powerhouses they are today.

Rob has a BA in vocal performance, Tim started singing in high school and has continued to write songs and perform throughout his adult life. Austin started as a kid (and traveled with his dad's gospel group in the summers) and studied musical theater in college, Adam Rupp played trumpet in college. Not sure about Chance...

Austin did a fabulous job of this classic song. Loved Percy Sledge's version, but this was taken to another level. I think it is also better than Michael Bolton's version. And remember this was done during quarantine, so the guys weren't even together. The backing harmonies are great, along with Tim's bass. And Adam's vocal percussion is outstanding. This is why these guys are my favorite a cappella group.

Percy Sledge was pretty darned awesome. Michael Bolton sounded like this was a lot harder on his voice, whereas Austin Brown's performance seemed almost effortless. Yes, he was working hard, but this was well in his range.

Hello mother and stepfather! Nice to "meet"you..😄 Yes, Austin nailed it. He gives himself completely here and also plays very well with the cameras. The great harmonies, deep bass and the unbelievably freaking good beatboxing/vocal percussion/vocal sounds finish it all off for me. I think it sounds perfect because of all the different beautiful voices. I grew up performing Percy Sledge which I already loved. Then came Michael Bolton's performance where I couldn't say for sure if it was better or not. But this one from Home Free certainly is.

Backwards hats lol. Home Free singing Slapback is awesome, love their rendition!

Hi Stan and Mom! Ok Matt, you get a pass for not doing "Ain't Goin' Down (Till the Sun Comes Up) since Chris isn't there. Plus you did react to an awesome song by Home Free. I cannot wait till you guys see it though!! It's only on their FB page, but it is so worth it!! Thanks for a great reaction. 💙🍟

And that's the way you sing that song ... OMG Austin killed it !

Hi Mom and Stan. Adam started to learn to beat box in college and he learned the drums enough to help with his beat boxing. When he draws a breath he's actually making a sound at the same time. I've watched him enough to finally recognize the sound when I hear it. All of the guys except Adam have had vocal training. It's one of the reasons Adam isn't comfortable singing lead on songs where there's no beat boxing but he's got a beautiful voice. I've actually heard that noise before and can see the instrument in my mind from when I was in school but I don't know the name of it. He's even taught some of the other guys beat boxing sounds. Austin was actually singing to his girlfriend Amberly who was standing next to the camera man. Adam Rupp is PHENOMENAL!!! Other beat boxers will tell you that he makes the most realistic instrumental sounds in the business. This was done during the pandemic so they were actually in 5 different locations in 3 different states. Great reaction!!!

Hello Mom and Stan hope you’re enjoying yourselves. Love this channel and the all the reactions. I love Home Free so it’s easy watching and listening to them. Thank you for your hard work. 🎼🦋🎵❤️🎶🌸

Adam majored in music in college (trumpet performance 🎶) so his ability to do circular breathing and triple-tongue is a huge help when it comes to his vocal percussion. 😉👍 He's got great rhythm, too, based on his dancing skills (!) and playing bass guitar & drums. 🥁🎸🎺 He & Chris formed HF when they were in college in 2000. Pretty much a flip of a coin decided which one would sing and who would beatbox. Lol From there, Adam taught himself to beatbox using DVDs!! 😳 After that, it was just a matter of repeating a sound 1,000s of times 'til he perfected it! After that, he learned to play real drums so he could accurately reproduce the movements during his performances. Sheesh Talk about dedication to your craft! He never fails to amaze me, even after all these years. ❤ This is one of their many quarantine videos, by the way. The guys were all in their respective homes. Austin and his girlfriend, Amberly, were the only ones in the studio. Home Free is #1 in my book, a capella or not! 😍

Hi Mom and Stan! Great to see more Home Fries!! LOL Adam didn't start beatboxing until the group was formed 20 years ago. So basically, if it wasn't for his brother's crazy idea to start an acapella group when they were in college, he may have never learned to do it. And believe it or not, he first learned from a dvd! All the guys have some kind of music training. Adam primarily in instruments (trumpet, drums and bass guitar) but the others all studied music in college. As for the convincing looks, Austin's lovely lady was behind the camera when he was singing so he was singing it for her. That and Austin is a camera flirt! LOL

Good to meet you, Mom and Stan! 307 Reacts is one of my very favorite reactors. I've loved Home Free since the Sing-Off in 2013. It's so fun to see new fans react. This was filmed during the COVID lockdown - so they were all separate. Makes it even more amazing.

#HiMom #HiStan #ThanksForRaisingMattHeIsAwesome We Love the boys!!!!

Show your mom and Stan "Try Anything" from Zootopia that one is fun and right after chance joined the group.

This was a great reaction! I like your parents. You should show them a live beatbox solo off of youtube, or Man Of Constant Sorrow with the harmonica sound and the bass, their bottom lip will hit the floor like mine did when I saw them.

"Man of Constant Sorrow" ---Adam Rupp did the 'harmonica' vocal percussions ---Adam Chance did the Mouth organ/jews harp/ Tibetian throat singing. Watch Chance (hat, brown vest) at the closing seconds, leaning against the post/ raining...can discern his creating that sound.

Your parents are so cool. Yes, Austin is amazing and so is Adam. I think they call it circular breathing? He inhales and exhales while doing the sounds…just don’t ask me how? Adam has been in the group (he and his brother founded it) 22 years so a long time practicing. Austin has had formal training. Tim (the bass) used to be a tenor and then his voice dropped so he kept singing in the tenor range and says it helped his lower range. Yeah he has a 5 octave range which is crazy. They’re all so good. And yes, both Pentatonix and Home Free sing Mary Did You Know. Great reaction Matt and parents! Love Home Free! And Tim and Austin write songs that Home Free sings too. Try the Dive Bar Saints album. 😀🥰

Hi Mom & Stan!! Home Free is the best. Love your reactions. Mom's reaction was priceless!

So glad you finally watched this. Austin slays this song!!

#MOM and #STAN... We will make HOMEFRIES out of them, yet! I have been following them for 20 years and they only get better! Percy Sledge sang it first and then Michael Bolton sang it a little later! But, nobody can sing it like HOMEFREE!!! They are SPECTACULAR! THIS SONG is Sheer perfection! They actually do not have a lead singer; whatever the song calls for, is who sings lead! They all have sung lead at some point!!! I actually am extremely fond of TIM FOUST!!! He has a 5 ovtave range and can go from deep bass to tenor in a flash!!! He also has written many of their songs! I really love this song! Thank you for such a glowing reaction!!!

These guys always deliver and they know it. It also seems like they are comfortable with whatever level of fame they have or will achieve. For as long as they are together and beyond, they will always be one of us, And they like it that way.

Austin kills this one! Homefree always pick the right person for the job! Great reaction!🎶💖🎶 Hi Mom ! Hi Stan! Hope you enjoy Homefree as much as I do!

I love your mom's reaction. This Austin can flirt with a camera and his voice is absolutely flawless

Hi Mom& Stan…‼️. Home Free is AWESOME ❤️‼️🥰. Austin’s voice is most Incredible 🥰❤️‼️

#himom #hiStan I love Austin's cover of this, he did Percy proud. He had Amberly in there with him. Actually the mouth harp was Chance, but Adam did his nomonica. They just blow me away every time. Thanks for posting

Don't forget, this had the added challenge of being done under quarantine! And tell Mom that Austin looks convincing because his girlfriend is there in the studio with him!

A few years ago i took my daughter to see home free. it was her first concert ever. she was so excited she lost her voice.

LOVE HOME FREE....especially Austin! Always smiling!!

Hi Mom & Stan, it's wonderful to meet you. This video was one that Home Free did during quarantine, & Austin is the only one actually in the studio.

Adam went to college for trumpet performance. He can do all kinds of circular breathing and Double and triple tonging all kinds of mouth contortions.

So let's set forth the collective abilities of Home Free: -- 5 lead singers (they rehearse, then vote who sounds best for the lead(s)) -- 5 tenors -- 3 baritones -- 2 bass -- 1 basso profundo -- 5 beat boxers/vocal percussionists -- 1 EXCEPTIONAL beatboxer/drum kit/ vocal percussionist -- 5 proficiency for genres: (Pop/Country/R&B/Rock/Gospel/Rap/Blues/Musical theater/Comedy/Holiday/Doo Wop/dancers-in- training 😉 )

Love the reaction and enthusiasm ! #HiMom #HiStan Austin just owned this song ! You should see the reaction to this song on the channel 'Jamee Jams' - right after the first vers, she says "If you you could make a baby with just a voice ..." - you are right - Austin is taking all the women.

Adam has a degree in Performance Trumpet, Austin's degree is in Musical Theater and Rob has a degree in Musical Performance with an emphasis in Opera.

I've considered the original and the Michael Bolton cover to be in a class all by themselves. When this came out, it became the third member of the group.

I just found Home Free 2 weeks ago and have been binge watching everything Home Free ever since. They are amazing! I can't believe I never heard of them before. Thanks for your reaction and it was awesome that you had your parents with you.

Devout, dedicated Home Fry here! Hi Mom, Hi Stan! Austin and Adam killed this one. 🐝🤗❤️

Chris Rupp started the group when he and Adam were in college. Tim sang in junior high and high school. Austin's dad was in a Gospel Quartet and been singing since he was little Adam taught himself how to beatbox for the group back in 2000. Adam Chance went to school for creative writing I believe. I don't know anything for sure other then he was in other groups before Home Free. The mouth harp was actually done by Chance not Adam Rupp. Truly enjoyed watching your reactions to these guys.

They guys JUST dropped their cover to LISTEN TO THE MUSIC. Amazing.

8:41 Adam's little trill from left to right just before the key change is insane ! To do it with an instrument it would be one of those corrugated blocks where you wipe quickly along it with a little stick. Home Free doesn't do covers - they do upgrades...

Part of their charm is their awesome personalities obvious in their videos

The Jew's Harp from Man of Constant Sorrow is done by Adam Chance, usually just called Chance. Adam Rupp does the harmonica sound. There is always some production in the background. This song for example was done during covid and they are all in different locations. They don't use auto tune, so the production is usually just layering. Adam can't play harmonica and drums at the same time. Austin was singing this to his girlfriend who was sitting in a chair just off camera. You need to check out their gospel side, maybe Go Rest High on That Mountain or How Great Thou Art.
