NASHVILLE, TN (September 28, 2017) – Bonafide all-vocal Country music knockouts Home Free are ready to bring The Timeless World Tour to the Whatley Center at Northeast Texas Community College Oct. 14.

The impressive Columbia Records quintet is comprised of Austin Brown [high tenor], Adam Chance [baritone], Tim Foust [bass], Rob Lundquist [tenor], and Adam Rupp [vocal percussion/beatboxer].

After nearly three sold out runs in 2016 and playing to over 125,000 fans, The Sing-Off Season 4 champs wrapped their 30-city international tour with shows in Québec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia, Canada.

With spring/summer dates spanning festivals in Austria, Netherlands and Spain, they also had select summer stops in North America. Now they’re ready to share their brand new music featuring must-hear tracks from their fourth studio album "Timeless" with their “Home Fries” — their beloved nickname for their immensely devoted fans.

Supported by international acclaim, Home Free continues to take their ovation-worthy talents on the road, wowing audiences with must-see reviews:

“When an a cappella band can bust out big harmonies without a touch-up, it’s worth a listen.” - NJ.com

“There is a way in which a cappella group Home Free can manipulate a song to make us fall in love with it all over again.” – Rare Country

“…one of the most talented and unique acts in modern country music…”
– Country Standard Time

“Their harmonies … are chill-inducing.” – Country Rebel

“Home Free creates not only country music, but theater with only stools and microphones and five incredible voices.” – NJ Arts

“Each performance showcases a new, animated, and electrifying experience that draws audiences in, and leaves them amazed.” – Singers

“Home Free never fail to give the best.” – Country’s Chatter

Following the 9/22 release of "Timeless", Home Free celebrated with two back-to-back shows in their hometown of Minneapolis, MN, and their adoptive hometown of Nashville, TN. The sold-out performances capped off a jam-packed release kickoff that included a major TV appearance at Fox & Friends and Fox's After the Show Show, a hilarious live-stream at Facebook NYC Headquarters, and a nationally broadcast performance of “The Star Spangled Banner” ahead of the Minnesota Vikings/Tampa Bay Buccaneers face-off in Minneapolis (9/24).

As steadfast pioneers, they're the only Country all-vocal group to be currently paving the way with an intensely rabid online fanbase of over 179 million + YouTube views. Known for their ovation-worthy harmonies and trademark a cappella renditions of today’s biggest Country and Pop hits, a few fan-favorite videos include: “Ring of Fire” (Johnny Cash), “How Great Thou Art," “All About That Bass” (Meghan Trainor), “Elvira” ft. The Oak Ridge Boys, and “Wake Me Up” (Avicii). Selling more than 200,000 copies combined of their popular albums, Home Free last reached #2 on Billboard’s Country Album’s chart in late 2016 with the release of  "Full of Even More Cheer", an expanded version of their popular holiday album, "Full of Cheer"14).

The release of "Ciuntry Revolution" (2015) hit #4 on Billboard’s Country Albums chart — further keeping a run of career chart-rising success, as their breakout debut album "Crazy Life" (2014) topped #1 on iTunes Country chart and #4 overall.

Their performance will be Saturday, October 14 at from 8-11 p.m. The Whatley Center for the Performing Arts is located at 2886 FM 1735, Mount Pleasant, Texas 75455. For tickets visit www.thewhatleycenter.com
