Check out all reactions 😊 : Home Free : kzfaq.info/sun/PLBxxPN1NmvZpakao9Z3Nq00W_p0nYwOL8 ; Austin Brown : kzfaq.info/sun/PLBxxPN1NmvZrkRkFzp6sRTXwaAagA1tPm

Can you believe this is a live performance recorded by a cell phone? He is just a wonderful performer, love is voice so much.

I never ever tire of hearing Austin sing! There are few singers who are as versatile with their types of singing as him. Classical here, honky-tonk style, country twang, yodeling, wailing high, pretty much can do it all. That's what makes him special and my favorite I guess. Rob has that voice that is so sweet and so pure (of course can whistle like no one else and "rap"!) and Tim, well, king of basses. Then Chance has that incredible sultry baritone that just cuts deep into my heart and touches me. Adam, world-class beat boxer extraordinaire. Put them all together, and we are super blessed!! Thanks for sharing your love of music with us and your fun and enthusiasm! Great reactions and happy we know you! Take care.

If a person has never sang Acappella, it’s hard to appreciate how crazy talented these guys are. Love your reactions to HF and how you recognize the complexity of the skill they each possess.

This comment is a year late. 😄 I read a comment somewhere else that Austin was sick when he did this “Bring Him Home” rendition. He performed like a pro and showed us his clear, powerful, & beautiful voice regardless. How magnificent would it be had he performed this with a full orchestra and a professionally produced video? I do appreciate the person who recorded this and posted it on KZfaq. Thanks for the reaction! 😊

i just keep coming back to this just for the beauty of Austin's voice. HE is so versatile.

Love you!!❤Love Home Free!❤ Austin's talent is AMAZING!!

This is why I love Austin. Can you react to the song he wrote called love me like that? Lonely girl's world and California country, others he wrote as well all really good songs.

And Austin was singing with congestion on this performance

Austin is so amazing. Each of the guys in Home Free are excellent singers for sure. Austin just brings that little extra special touch. I agree with you that he gives me David Phelps vibes to me too. Great reaction, as usual.

Great reaction 😊

In the Blood... so beautifully sung, wonderful lyrics, and a great arrangement! Glad you liked it!

Austin definitely has some pipes! I was blown away the first time I saw the “Bring Him Home” live video. The guys are really good at picking appropriate sites in relevance to the song they sing, or maybe it’s someone else who picks that. Whoever it is, they do a great job. I know that Adam Rupp has a tenor voice, and whenever he harmonizes (sometimes) he will sing a couple of octaves above Tim, or Chance (whomever has the bass part). I love how you pick apart and dissect the song. I thoroughly enjoy your reactions, fellow Home Fry!

Every time I see the video with them singing Le Mis, I get the chills and tears come to my eyes. Home Free is quite simply amazing. There aren't a lot of groups that can cover the incredible range of genres and do it so well. They never sound out of their comfort zone, everything just sounds like they're meant to be singing it. Broadway, country, rock, gospel, rap, r&b, plus whatever other mixes you can throw at them. I know this is an older video, but thanks for all of your breakdowns and attention to detail. ❤

When I was young, the word for a song like this was, "heavy." As in "Heavy man, heavy. . ."

You have become my fave Reactor in such a short time. You da man! Thank you for appreciating my fave Austin. I am a huge HF fan overall, but Austin is special. BTW Austin is classically trained, so to describe him as using that technique is not incorrect, even though he is doing Broadway.

WOW! Two in one day! I never get tired of HF and the reactions, even though I know all the songs! 🎶

Loved this....love you breaking it down . It’s obvious you Love music. Really enjoying your channel!

Austin is incredibly talented. I also love In the Blood.♥️♥️

Every damn time I hear this I forget to breath! Voice of an Angel!

In The Blood sure made me think of my family dynamics. I've discovered that creating a loving, supportive, encouraging family is a valid, needed, and effective choice when life gives us the opposite. Beautiful harmony. I always love it when Adam Rupp sings making it a 5 part harmony. Love your reactions, QoFy!

I love your analysis. You are pointing out what I'm hearing, but I don't necessarily know the explanations of such. My suggestion is for "I Can't Outrun You", with Chance taking lead. It is a hauntingly beautiful rendition. I think you'll love it.

Austin has a beautiful voice, and amazing control! Great arrangement for In The Blood!

Austin grew up in Georgia. He was brought up with Southern Gospel. He traveled with wis fathers Southern Gospel quartet. He majored in music theater in college on full scholarship. So he has the training and the background to be in the same league as David Phelps.

Austin has such a beautiful voice.. i am going to start caslling you QOFRY

So I'm closing on in a deadline and really didn't have the time to watch a reaction video, but hey, some things are just important in this life and a QoFy double reaction is, apparently one of them. I've seen them do Bring Him Home live and even though they were tired after traveling you could hear a needle drop. Amazing! Thanks for another fun reaction, and have a great week you too! :)

How did I miss seeing this? Incredible. I agree - a whole other HIGH level of respect for Austin.

Oh, Lord...I would have loved to have been in that audience 💖❤️💖‼️. It was beyond beautiful !!!

This is so beautiful and so different from the usual Austin. Love, love, love it.

Austin just kills this. He has such a pure voice. He does not get his due and there are haters but they really need to listen to Home Free and all the different genres cover. Amazing. Also, In The Blood is one of my all time favorites from this group. I heard this tune wafting thru my daughter's house via Alexa. I instantly had to find out more about the song and who was performing it. I've never looked back. They excite me as no group has in many years.

Two very different songs. I was lucky enough to hear them perform Bring him home in Birmingham, UK I January 2016, my first Home Free show and their first show in Europe. So beautiful! In the blood is so nice and I listened to it in my car for 2 hours over and over again. Love it! Keep digging in the hole and give us more fantastic reactions like this 🙏

Home Free's version of What We Ain't Got is also very good.

One thing I notice is that they are so good at portraying the emotion of the song (not simply hitting the right notes) that toward the end you can hear a child in the audience begin to weep. This makes me cry every time I hear it.

I loved your explanation of the Austin's solo. Very interesting, you learn something new all the time. And as for In The Blood? Yes, this song speaks to me and my family situation, also. Probably true for many people, also. Adam and his simulation sound of a heart beat was so simple and yet, so fitting for this song. Tim's opening had me so mesmerized. Thank you, for that phenomenal reaction.

That was so much info I did not know and gives me new appreciation for Austin's talent. I always appreciate the thought that goes into HF's videos, they heighten the meaning and emotions of the song.

"Bring Him Home" is one of my all time favorites. Austin is so talented and this showcases his broad range of talent. This one is so moving that it makes me cry every time. Thank you so much for reviewing and for the explanations you give of the techniques involved.

This one just grabs you .....Damn he’s AWESOME !!! 🙃‼️

Congrats on your channel growth. It has been almost 1 year to the day since this video posted. You were looking forward to meeting your goal of 1K before the end of the year. Congrats on your 12.1K + subs.

QoFy, you are one of my favorite informed reviewers! Thank you so much!!!

Great reaction as usual! It's fun to watch them listen, isn't it? Stone cold pros that make it look so natural and effortless.

I've seen this umpteen times & every time I hold my breath thru the entire thing!! Austin has such a powerful voice. This is what he trained for. He worked hard at losing his southern drawl accent being a southern Georgia boy, & then had to bring it back for the group! When he joined HF, Tim said, "Um... can we have your southern accent back again, buddy?" LOL! They all have such diverse voices. Rob has a bit of a jazzy background, Tim has mostly country, Chris more pop, & Chance seems to bring a bluesy flavor into the mix. No wonder they're such a strong group. Don't know if you've heard Voctave, but it's another a capella group that's really good. They also sing at Disney World as The Voices Of Liberty in which Austin used to be part of before joining HF back in 2011. Pretty cool! Btw: check out "I Can't Outrun You". It'll blow you away!

Great reactions😊

I lost a bet with my wife. I had to take her and sit through the movie, Les Miserable'. Hugh Jackman was one of the leads, and sang that song. I gotta admit, Wolverine pulled it off. I had no idea how well he could sing. And a 2fer day, this is turning out to be a good lunch.

Oh what a great way to start my day...a 2fer reaction from you to two of my favorites! Austin has such a pure angelic voice in Les Mis ...and the guys always give credit where credit is due! The 2nd one...well that one is just awesome...it just don't get any better then these 5 guys...they are the best of the best!

I enjoyed this video so much man. Great

🔥🔥🔥🔥David Phelphs's amazing ▶Austin's dad was part of a gospel touring group, growing up, he some- times traveled with him around the country..All grew up in churches!💜

I enjoyed your comments about David Phelps and Austin's singing. David is my all time favorite singer with Austin at a very close second. I'm not sure what Austin's highest note is, but I've watched several reaction comments about David's high notes, and they listed an F5. My understanding is that's high for a male singer. He's now 50 and sadly the high notes are fewer. Austin is young, and I wish he'd do more lead singing. His voice is fantastic and I love hearing him sing. Thanks again for your comments!

David phelps has always been my favorite tenor in Southern gospel but it's a close call with him and Austin they are both amazing!! Seen them both live a couple of times and there are no words!! Love them both!!

Really I like your reaction more than anyone’s..... because you feel the music 😁

Austin is amazing. He can perform so many kinds of songs with such finesse.

Great reaction, as usual! Seeing HF performing "Bring Him Home", especially Austin's part, always brings me back to my choir years, so I it was great to hear your thoughts on it. This one really makes Austin shine, imo.... In the Blood is also a great song by HF, I really like their dynamics in this one, all of them are fantastic, the lyrics are powerful and their performance is on point. Thanks for sharing, stay safe!

I love these two songs together, such a contrast of styles and voices, great choice. It really does show the strength of this group, that Austin can go from singing a challenging musical theatre lead in the first one, to background harmonies only in the second, and both songs are excellent, because they are all about making wonderful music together, not about duelling egos. Chance said once in an interview, that when he agreed to join Home Free from Street Corner Symphony it was on the condition he got to sing bass some of the time, that he didn't want to give it up - and of course that meant Tim could cover a wider range as well, so he was a perfect fit. Maybe if you feel like a change from Home Free, you could react to something from Street Corner Symphony - Stay With Me is a lovely one, or Uptown Funk.

Totally agree!! I LOVE David Phelps and still listen to The Gaither Vocal Band. My favorite time frame was when Michael English was singing with them too. Awesome reaction!

Austin is a classical trained singer that is why he can sing like that and he is from Georgia so he can do the country twang

this is beautiful. how many groups can leave a hook of ooohs and aaaahs stuck in your head? I love this "three tenor" version of home free.

takes alot of musical knowlege to respect the talents of the individuals and team of Home Free. Thanks for sharing the nuances of this great performance.

I really appreciate your analysis and reactions; always learn something about music when I watch. That you are reacting to one of my favorite groups is just a bonus!

I've watched and listened to the full performance of Les Mis. Many times. I got it on a vcr tape, 50th anniversary, for my mom and she played it while she was sleeping. She couldn't sleep with some noise in the background, this was one of the tapes she listened to. My daughter is one of those who picks up lyrics while they are playing the first time. She can still sing every song. They did this so well. In the Blood I call the question song. LOL Thanks! ^_^

Thanks for the reaction. Had to laugh at the GVB and David Phelps reference. Have seen them both in concert several times. David Phelps is amazing. I think he can hit a bit higher than Austin, but they are both amazing.

Binge watching QoFy, PTX, Dimash and Home Free today. Great reactions. This song was beautiful.

Congrats on your subs

Your insight and analysis are fascinating and your enthusiasm and happy demeanor are endearing.

As always, such wonderful insight, I always find things from you that I've never noticed before, I love that! I also love that you did two songs in this video. It was nice to hear Chris's voice, I miss him. But then I got to hear Chance's right away and realized how different his voice is, but love it just as much! He fit into this group so seamlessly, we fans were very lucky! Austin is the most unusual singer I have ever heard, I am a lifelong fan of his, he is amazing. Please react to "Country Roads" and "End of the Road". Thanks again!

Fun fact: Rob was classically trained heading for Opera music. I would like to hear Rob do a little sampler of Opera.

It's not "classical" but "Broadway" but still VERY NOT THEIR TYPICAL FARE. :) Isn't Austin just an amazing vocalist ? Aren't you glad you discovered these dudes ? The talent these dudes have is just off the charts. I hear you about the Gaithers, they were just amazing & Since Austin's father was a Gospel Quartet member, so he was exposed to it a lot. IN THE BLOOD is one of my very favorite Home Free covers. Just awesome.

This is good but check out his solo of this song on his page, so good

For my audition to the acapella choir I'm in, I sang the first three sections of, In the Blood. Tim, Chance, and Rob's first parts. I was prepared to sing more of it, but that's all it took to land a Bass part. The choir director believes in moving people around whenever possible, so I range from Bass to Second Tenor depending on what the song needs.

these guys' talent is so multifaceted that they can always change things up switch parts or just add to the fullness of their sound. I think it's part of the reason I love them so much.

QoFry. I like it...Great vocals and a great message

Qofy we have to stop meeting like this my husband is going to really start questioning why I'm praising the Lord at such random hours. I'm just kidding 😉😅🤣. You should hear Hugh Jackman sing this. It's not nearly as good as Austin, but it's shocking that Wolverine can perform that way. The same goes for his singing in The Greatest Showman. Enjoyed it all and am glad I was able to say "Good day Mate.❤😇🥰🤣😂

Congratulations! :-) You’re awesome!

very nice reaction for HOME FREE, and yh, Gaither Vocal Band with David Phelps tenor is a boss group. Much respect for mentioning them

You have to rember that Adam also sings bass

Love your reactions try do you hear what I hear and man of constant sorrow

In the Blood is one of my favorite Home Free covers. Just as you mention, it really makes me think about my own family dynamics and how much power I have to alter my own path where I need to. Thank you for sharing your reaction. If you like a good/impressive tenor voice, you should check out Dimash Kudaibergen. Anything by him is worth hearing, but a good intro is SOS d'un terrien en detresse.

❤❤❤

Great reaction! David Phelps'voice is magnificent! He is my favorite male singer.

PS: David Phelps is incredible. Always watch the Gaither Homecoming and he sang for years with them. He's super funny too! I would love to hear some of your music. How/where? Thanks again.

Funnily enough, Austin worked hard to lose that Georgia accent only for them to ask him to bring it back. But, he is classically trained. He had a full voice scholarship and is more than justin Bieber. Yeah!!!!!!!! In the Blood. Adam's beat boxing is almost like a heart beat. thx for this reaction. Now, I'll quit bugging you. You have made me a happy woman.

My favourite HF song. Lyrics hits hard and I love Tim's voice

There are videos showcasing each guys range.

🥰🎶💥

Please add Helplessly Hoping to your Home Free reaction list.

Are you a teacher? I really enjoy your reactions but this one highlighted your training and depth of knowledge, It just struck me that I could hear a teacher coming out.

😊🤩

They are not all about the Butts. They are very versatile

Austin trained is musical theater in school.

Love this! There is actually a better version out there. Austin struggled a little in this one as he had a cold.

I LOVE IT NOT ONE SOUND FROM THE AUDIAYNCE/

In one of the concert intros Tim made the joke that they where lucky that Chance did not join PTX LOL

Re range of Austin ( and Tim) there a few videos showing their ranges .Austin can go higher ( i don’t know the terms) Austin has a degree in music ,as have Rob and Adam Austin spent a long term getting rid of his southern accent for his classical singing ,only to bring it out again when he started with Home free!

I would like to see you react to Home Free's "Home Away From Home Series". Episode 1 has a spot in the vid. @ 5.02 where they are setting around talking business and they start an impromptu singing of amazing grace and Austin hits a extreme high note(the sun part). It's high than I have heard in any of there songs. Plus you get a really good "behind-the-senes look" at Home Free and it lets you, really get to know them, outside of the music. You should check it out! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oNKidthhtbjXpIE.html

The Gaither Vocal band were the ones to first get me interested in listening to great singing. Their current line-up is pretty good even though David Phelps left a while ago. Enjoying your reactions with quite a lot of detail other reactors don't pick up on - many thanks.

This song makes me feel like it’s about brotherhood. It’s men talking to men

Thanks for the reaction. Can you do _Man of Constant Sorrow

As usual, I love your reactions QoFy! I love your knowledge and how you break it down for us. I would love to see you react to some of their live skits. They have one called “Guilty Pleasures” here’s the link kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j6mRe6SozrPOmKs.html and another called “Songs that didn’t make the cut” here’s the link kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mdSAo7yr0Zmpcn0.html both of these are HILARIOUS!

You need to listen to dimash singing hello,6 octave range, the best singer hands down!

loving these double reactions!

I think Austin goes higher than David Phelps but the David’s voice quality is better. 😄 Of course Austin’s voice quality is also one the best out there. You’re right about Austin reaching the realm of David Phelps 😊

Hey hey please check out, Come to Jesus by David Phelps. 😄 He does a lot of falsetto and chest and falsetto back again....like as if he used auto tune.
