In old age, he went to the University or college of Oklahoma on a complete music scholarship or grant, but by the center of his junior 12 months, the scholarship have been worn out and George was working out of money. Taking a possibility hoping of raising the amount of money to finish college, Huff journeyed to Houston once the American Idol auditions found its way to the town. He nailed the audition, competed on the display, and managed to get to the very best Five before getting voted off. After Huff finished a 50-town American Idol tour, the vocalist considered his choices. Presents from four different record businesses were up for grabs, but he find the Christian music label Phrase. His 2004 discharge My Xmas EP! was implemented a year afterwards by his debut full-length, Wonders. Both game titles reached quantity eight on Billboard’s gospel graph.
