They sang an arrangement of Hunter Hayes' "I Want Crazy," as their final competitive song, earning the group $1. Sony.[2]Home Free released their album, Crazy Life, on February 1. It was released digitally on January 1. History[edit]The group Home Free was originally formed in 2. Chris Rupp in Mankato, Minnesota, when some of its members were still in their teens.[4] The five founding members were brothers Chris and Adam Rupp, Matt Atwood, Darren Scruggs, and Dan Lemke; taking their name from a boat owned by Atwood's grandfather who helped support the group financially in the early years.[5] The group began as a hobby for the singers, but they gradually gained in experience and popularity. By 2. 00. 7 they had enough of a following to pursue music full- time.

During this period, the Rupp brothers and Atwood formed the core of the group, with Atwood singing lead tenor. Other members of the group came and went. Current member Rob Lundquist, another Minnesotan, joined in 2. For much of the group's history they worked with many talented bass singers, but did not have a full- time committed bass voice.

Home Free in 2. 01. Austin Brown. Rob Lundquist. Chris Rupp. Tim Foust. Adam Rupp. In 2. 01. Matthew "Austin" Brown was working on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship as a featured singer in their production shows. When Home Free joined the cruise as a guest performing group, they met and became close.

Brown, who was born in Tifton, Georgia, let Home Free know that he would be interested in joining the group if they ever had an opening. At the end of 2. 01. Matt Atwood, who had gotten married the previous year, and his wife were expecting their first child.

Finding the group's touring schedule incompatible with family life, and having an opportunity to take over his family's real estate business in Mankato, Atwood made the decision to retire from the group. Home Free then invited Brown to join as lead tenor. He sang his first show with the group in October 2.

Chris Rupp would be leaving the group to pursue a solo career and would be replaced after May 8 by Adam Chance, formerly of Street Corner Symphony.[9] Chris has gone on to release his own solo album Shine and has also formed a new mixed group called 7th Ave that is non- a cappella based.

An update of the 2. Full of Cheer was released as Full Of (Even More) Cheer in November 2. No. 2 on Top Country Albums with 1. Musical background and style[edit]All five of Home Free’s singers have formal musical training. Lundquist and the Rupp brothers all have bachelor's degrees in music. Adam Rupp's primary instrument is trumpet, but he also plays drums, keyboard, and bass guitar.

Since joining, Foust and Brown have also become very active in writing and arranging. In terms of musical roles, Home Free is structured like a traditional barbershop quartet, with a lead tenor, two harmony voices, and a bass. The lead tenor, who fronts the group and sings most of the solos, is Austin Brown. Tenor harmony is sung by Rob Lundquist, baritone harmony is sung by Adam Chance, and Tim Foust sings bass.

In addition to the four voices, percussion sounds are provided by beatboxer Adam Rupp. Although Brown is Home Free’s primary soloist, all of the other members occasionally sing solos as well.

Home Free’s styling as a country group is relatively recent. Before Foust joined the group, Home Free was an all- purpose a cappella group, singing in a wide variety of styles, of which country was only a minor one. Watch Beach Picnic Mojoboxoffice.

With the additions of Foust and Brown, the group moved more in the direction of country and found that audiences responded well to it. Home Free had auditioned three times for The Sing- Off (without Foust and Brown) and not been accepted. When auditioning for the fourth season, they made a conscious decision to style themselves as a country group. In an interview Brown said this identity is what grabbed the attention of The Sing- Off’s casting director, who said, “You guys really fit something we don’t have.”[7]Discography[edit]Singles[edit]Concert Tours[edit]Before their success on the Sing- Off, Home Free was already touring at fairs and festivals across the US, as well as stints on cruise ships. Since then they have been part of the Sing- Off Tour, as well as headlining their own Crazy Life Tour (2. Full of Cheer Tour (2.
