Yesterday we sat down with country sensation Home Free just before their show at TPAC in Nashville on Dec. 13th to discuss their new album, favorite Christmas memories, favorite holiday dishes, and much more!

Get to know this incredible country vocal group who first gained national attention and won fans’  hearts as the winners of NBC’s “The Sing Off” in the video below.

The show itself was a great mix of country classics with a new twist, original tunes, and Christmas favorites.  Their delivery was absolutely mesmerizing with solid harmonies all throughout their performance.  It’s pretty incredible what they are capable of doing with just their voices alone.  In-between songs, they light-heartedly interacted with the crowd keeping the concert going at a great pace and effortless flow.

Some amazing beatboxing from @homefreeguys tonight! #HomeFree Watch them tomorrow on #TheTonightShow!

A Closer Look @ Tyler Farr | Get To Know Him In His Own Words

Tyler Farr - Suffer in PeaceTyler Farr just released his 2nd album last week entitled “Suffer In Peace”.  I personally think that it’s his best effort to date.  In stores now, be sure to check it out!

I especially love “A Guy Walks Into A Bar”.  Farr’s music always seems to come from a very authentic, honest place and that’s what I love about him.  His raspy baritone voice is one of my favorites on the radio today.  I highly-recommend his new album.  You won’t be disappointed.
