I like that when Home Free features another artist, they actually show them off. They really put aside any ego and really let the featured artist shine.

Home Free, Pentatonix, Voiceplay.......3 amazing groups, 3 amazing basses.

Avi trained to be an operatic basso profundo, so that smoothness is part of the program.

I love how Avi gives credit to Tim on the last note, by donning the black cowboy hat, as if to say "I am with you Tim!" Also, big credit to Avi for that one octave seamless drop at 5:22

That's called a tip of the hat. When I first met my now wife, a tip of the hat sealed the deal. I can still picture her big smile, and that was 34 years ago.

If you want to hear that bass note again, check out "Misty Mountains". By Peter Hollans featuring Tim Faust. (Home Free bass) It's from the movie "The Hobbit". Enjoy!

Uh....Tim doesn’t do Subharmonics, he uses Growl and Chest-Fry, on this video he used Growl.

Homefree have an amazing cover of End of the road! You will love it I am sure! The bass' name is Tim Foust. He can practically sing anything! High, subterranean, you name it!

While Home Free is country tinged, they do covers of many different genres. The "End of the Road" cover that people are suggesting is a great example of their versatility. I also second the suggestion to wait on Mayday. I recommend waiting until you can identify each member by voice before doing so.

Home Free does ALL genres of music not just country. They give it a twang but that was because of the song.

You would love their cover of End of the Road. BTW Tim goes even lower than that end note...lol. Check out Sold or Folsom Prison.

Home free does do all the main genres! They just released a cover of one voice with Billy Gilman and recently sang when a Man loves a woman and bye-bye Miss America pie with Don McLean!

Home Free is considered country acapella, but they can and do cover all genres of music. Check out the Butts Remix, When a Man Loves a Woman, and End of the Road to see just a few that aren't all county flavored. But they are always great! You should also react to Hillbilly Bone, Helplessly Hoping, and Seven Bridges Road. Then once you think know where their usual roles and ranges are, give Mayday a listen. You won't regret going down this rabbit hole!

If you watch the Sing Off 4th Season, they perform this as one of their songs, and Tim actually drops a half step lower on the ending note....the baritone (Chris Rupp with the cap) who is a co-founder of Home Free with his brother Adam Rupp (the amazing Beat Boxer) has been replaced with Adam "Chance" who is a baritone but can also cover bass...Austin Brown is the high tenor and Rob (beard) is the other tenor. Avi and Tim are friends, and Avi has a couple cameo appearances in other videos and it is said that Tim helped Avi and Geoff (from Voiceplay) develop their low growl. Tim has a 5 Octave Range. Listen to more Home Free BEFORE you listen to Mayday...and you will understand. BTW, they did a cover of "End of the Road" which fully does justice to the original!

Morrison 2015 I think

Home Free 101---This is the "Sing Off" lineup. Beatboxer Adam and baritone Chris Rupp formed the group in 2000. Tenor Rob Lundquist (glasses) joined the group in 2008, the same year they went full-time. Bass Tim Foust stabilized that lineup spot in 2010. HF found tenor Austin Brown aboard a cruise ship in 2012. Chris Rupp left in 2016, and helped choose bass-baritone Adam "Chance" as his replacement. The current lineup has been together ever since.

More songs to check out from Home Free are "Folsom Prison Blues", "Do You Hear What I Hear", "Fishin' in the Dark/Boondocks", "Helplessly Hoping", "Blue Ain't Your Color" and "Moonshine".

Avi's voice makes me melt 😍 and he looks nice too 😍

Great dual reaction... just subscribed for more Home Free!!! Since your lovely wife said she likes Johnny Cash, and you both enjoy deep bass, I highly recommend Home Free's cover of Johnny's "Folsom Prison Blues" ❣😁

like the channel Tom and Sarah. I was fortunate to have heard Home Free in concert in 2015, one of their first tours after winning Sing Off. And my friend had gotten premiere tix, so we had an extended meet-and-greet before the show; they were a delight and they performed a song for the meet-and-greet that was not in the actual concert (you can do that when you only need your voices, as they mirthfully said). In the show, they did a range of genres, not just country. They were superb !

That is why in May 2016 when Chris Rupp left and Adam Chance joined Home Free, with his ability to be a bass too, it has made Home Free much better. Think also how much content Home Free has produced being in quaqrantine, while other bands have been fairly slack. Also that last note is a G1 and is about an octave lower than most singers caqn go. Home Free does all genre's including R&B...like End of the Road by Boyz2Men...watch it you may be impressed.

There is another acapella group that very good called VOICE PLAY.. Pentatoix, Home Free, and Voice Play are all friends

Your wife mentioned the " old Christmas...the old sound. Well Home Free's "Do You Hear What I Hear?" is EXACTLY what you ordered.

There are a few videos on YT labeled 'Bass Vocalist Battles' in which both Avi and Tim appear. DEFINITELY worth checking out ALL of those videos, old ones to new ones! This will also introduce you to other Bass Vocalists such as Geoff Castallucci of the group VoicePlay. The Beat Boxer for Home Free is a World Champion of Beat Boxing. There are videos of that, too. :)

Hello Sara and Tom.. Welcome to Home Free... Tim Faust ( bass) has blown out speakers at some concerts with his low bass... lol Check out End Of The Road,,,

Obviously hoping you guys react to End of the Road by Home Free since you referenced Boys to Men!

Home Free won the season after Pentatonix won. You should react to Home Free Your Man Crazy Life Tour. It needs to be that specific version as it is the one time there is comedy within the performance and at the end you can tell Tim is rattling the speaker.

Do more home free 🙌

In case you didn't already know, Tim Foust (their bass) has a five (5) octave range!

Tim (bass) has been known to break speakers....

They have actually learned, arranged and put up on KZread in 7 days. They are a phenomenal group for sure.

Home Free does all types of music....try Helplessly Hoping cover.....Castle on the Hill.....End of the road....Soul Train. American Pie with Don McLean the original singer/songwriter. God Bless the USA with Lee Greenwood ( original singer and song writer) and the United Statees Air Forse singing Seargents. They do a lot of country music also, and they have several originals.

i do believe the last note sung is a G1 .. which is hella low and to extend it as long as he dose is just WOW...

Another Johnny Cash song that they covered is "Folsom Prison Blues" that is Really Good!!!! And to hear Tim (Bass) more also check out "Misty Mountains" by Peter Hollens ft. Tim Foust!!!!

Avi Kaplan and Tim foust both sing and are the bases in the Ring of fire
