HOME FREE JOINS KENNY ROGERS MONDAY (12/14) ON “THE TONIGHT SHOW STARRING JIMMY FALLON”
Columbia Records’ country sensation Home Free will break from their sold-out HOME FREE FOR THE HOLIDAYS tour to join music icon Kenny Rogers this Monday (12/14) on NBC’s “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.” Earlier this year, Home Free met the legendary singer when he invited them to join him on “Children, Go Where I Send Thee,” featured on Rogers’ brand new ONCE AGAIN IT’S CHRISTMAS album (Warner Bros./Warner Music Nashville). The music video for the collaboration racked up over one million YouTube views in just three weeks with the band’s loyal fans bringing their total YouTube views to a soaring 53 million. On December 23 fans can also catch Home Free when they perform on Hallmark Channel’s two-hour lifestyle show, “Home & Family,” at 10am/9amCT.
"What an absolute honor to be an invited guest of one of country's biggest legends," offers bass singer Tim Foust. "We've formed an amazing friendship with Kenny, and we are excited to make our late night television debut with one of the last country greats."
Keeping in the holiday spirit, Rolling Stone Country is exclusively premiering the vocal band’s brand new music video for “I’ll Be Home For Christmas” today (12/11). Directed by FifGen Films’ Reilly Zamber, McKenzie Zamber and Jimmy Bates, the video was shot in a cabin just outside Minneapolis, MN. Featuring clips of soldiers reuniting with their families for the holidays, it keeps the sentiment of the original Bing Crosby song honoring troops overseas during World War II at Christmastime.
Looking ahead to the New Year, Home Free will embark on the 2016 DON’T IT FEEL GOOD: SPRING Tour. A continuation of their successful 2015 DON'T IT FEEL GOOD Tour, they are returning with a nationwide run of 35 dates covering 31 cities. The tour launches February 10 in Ames, IA, and wraps up May 8 in St. Cloud, MN. Fans can expect to hear songs from Home Free’s new studio album COUNTRY EVOLUTION, including current Country radio single “Elvira” as well as fan-favorites. Pre-sales begin today (12/11) at 10am local time via HomeFreeMusic.com/Tour with offer code "HARMONY." Tickets will be available to the general public on Monday, December 14 at 10am local time.

The five-man band from Minnesota, comprised of Austin Brown (high tenor), Tim Foust (bass), Rob Lundquist (tenor), Adam Rupp (vocal percussion/beat boxer) and Chris Rupp (baritone), dropped their debut album CRAZY LIFE in 2014, which hit No. 1 on iTunes Country chart and No. 4 overall. The release of their third studio album, COUNTRY EVOLUTION has elevated the band “from auxiliary entertainment to headlining attraction” (Times Leader) and hit No. 4 on the Billboard Country Albums chart. Produced by longtime collaborator Darren Rust, the deluxe version includes five originals and nine new renditions of hit songs that showcase the band’s extraordinary talents, tight harmonies and intelligent arrangements that are uniquely their own. Founded in 2000 during collegiate years, Home Free has been perfecting their live show for nearly a decade performing together for packed crowds at major fairs, colleges and theatres. Their experiences on the road helped carry them to the Sing-Off victory, build a loyal fan base and bring their homegrown country style into the national spotlight.
