Like i said before, Home Free should have a concert/reunion of all former and current members and sing all the songs that they sing from old covers to newly created ones/originals.

Last winter was a really tough time emotionally. Everything, changed after I watched Movin On for the first time, and cried myself to sleep and became a Home Fry. I will be watching my first Home Free livestream show soon. I am so Full of Cheer! Your solo and Home Free music has brought me so much healing, joy and comfort, I can’t thank you enough! God bless!

I went to Mankato East High School when Home Free did all these gigs for high schools before they got really well known. We loved it when they came and performed for our choir, and I really think we got inspired to be creative and passionate about music. I was a senior when they were on The Sing-Off and it felt like we were sharing a hometown secret!

These origins are good ... they form the inception and early growth of a GREAT IDEA ... but, IT FLOURISHED WITH ONLY ONE OF THESE HERE .... Adam Rupp. Brother & founder Chris is the brains and emboldened force behind the band ... deserves credit for the group staying together as well. Indeed as noted - The inclusion of THE INCREDIBLE BASS (And Baritone, Tenor) of Tim Foust set them apart form many A Capella Groups that made the grade to some level .... and when running across the best High Tenor anyone has heard = Austin Brown ..... they were one slot away from perfection .... Since the TV awarded money, Distinction and notoriety ...... CHANCE .... it was and is Phenomenal !!!

Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. I am fairly new to Home Free. I just found them last year but love everything about them. I don't know any of the history, so to hear it first hand from the founders is great. I am a huge fan of your brother Adam & his amazing talent. We rarely get to hear him talk, so really enjoy listening to his input. You guys have a great memory of what happened. Look forward to hearing more of this series. PS: I watched the video recently about the worst night with the van & trailer that you eluded to here.

I cried tears of joy. 🥰 And when a Home Fry said during the encore: “Do the Butt Remix!” I was like yaass, 🙌 because it is (with Full of Cheer, All About that Bass bloopers, and many of your videos that will always make me 😁😂 on a tough day.

Thanks for putting this history together. It's so interesting to see where you all started. Have been listening to Home Free for just over a year now. Came across Man of Constant Sorrow by accident on some reacto'rs channel and promptly went down the Rabbit hole. Still there. Your music has been inspiring & uplifting during a rather difficult year of lockdown. The quality and quantity of content that you put out over this time (even though it must have been difficult for you being in different locations) is much appreciated.Thank you all so very much ❤
