I find the difference between John Denver's version and Home Free's is that John's always seemed like a soul wanting to stop traveling...while Home Free's is homesick

@arnieadam2 жыл бұрын
If you ever attend one of their concerts, you'll find that Tim Foust (the guy you thought was scary) is usually the front man. He does most of the talking and is really warm and funny. And we all agree that it is wonderful to follow a band whose members are so generous and supportive of each other to the degree that they don't really have a lead singer...they take turns and let the song dictate who takes the lead. That makes them the ultimate musicians in my estimation.

They never disapoint on theire cover songs. They allways stay true to the original, but still put theire HF magic on to it, and make the songs theire own. I grew up with JD, my dad was an huge country music fan, but imo this was so much better. They made a cover off John Mayer's "In the blood", and like this one, they slowed it down a nudge, and ended with a better version. And yes, you could absolutly give recognizion to them, if you feel that they did an oustanding job, and improved any song they covered.

I'm a huge John Denver fan and I think he would have loved this. Tim is the "scary" one with what I call a bottomless voice, Rob is the bearded one singing most of the lead on this, Austin is the red haired tenor, Chance is the baritone with the cap on backwards, and Adam is the beat boxer. Please listen to their cover of Johnny Cash's "Folsom Prison Blues".

Grew up with John Denver, but I love Home Free's version. You do need headphones or ear buds to listen to them. I like that HF chose not to exactly mimic Denver's vocal key. It would have been too much of an imitation. HF honors the original artist in their covers while doing their own style

Welcome to the Rabbit hole boys! You will find that HomeFree is capable of covering just about any genre of music. Yes Tim is goofy as all get out but he does have a 5 octave range. The guy withthe glasses and beard is Rob Lundquist, crystal clear voice. Has great vocal powerful we don't see it quite as much as Austin Brown, the Beatbox is Adam Rupp...he is one of the most talented vocal percussionist out there...beyond talented! Finally the last member of HomeFree is Adam Chance, he goes by Chance to cut confusion. Very talented Baritone/Bass. He will sometimes fill in as bass for Tim Foust when the song calls for Tim to sing in other parts of his very broad vocal range.

Not sure what you've reacted to yet, but some of my favorite older country ones they have done are Hillbilly B one, Hunter Hayes Medley, Alabama Medley, Wagon Wheel, Elvira (with Oakridge Boys) , Some Girls Do (super fun with baritone Chance leading).
