Huff is originally from New Orleans, Louisiana; he is currently a student at the University of Oklahoma. Huff auditioned for the third season of American Idol in Houston, Texas; he was a member of the fourth group of semifinalists. He was actually not among those originally chosen for the semifinal round, but was put through when contestant Donnie Williams was disqualified for a drunk driving arrest.
Huff was not voted through to the final round from his group of semifinalists, but got another second chance when he was brought back for the wildcard round and put through as a finalist by contest judge Simon Cowell. During this period, New Orleans Fox Affiliate WVUE would hold specials including Huff's family cheering George on during the latest episodes.
On May 5, 2004, Huff was voted off in fifth place after two renditions of Fred Astaire's "Cheek to Cheek" and Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World" during big band week.
His album, Miracles, was released by Word Records, on October 11, 2005. The first single off that album was Brighter Day. It sold a mere 18,000 copies.
In 2005 his Louisiana home was affected by Hurricane Katrina. He left New Orleans and stayed at his brother's house in Dallas. 1

The lyrics to George Huff's song "No One But Jesus" are a powerful expression of gratitude and faith. The chorus repeats the line "no one but Jesus is worthy of honor and praise," emphasizing the importance of Christ in the singer's life. The opening verses reflect on the challenges the singer has faced and how their relationship with Christ has helped them overcome those challenges. The line "if it had not been for you" suggests a deep reliance on Jesus for strength and guidance, something that is echoed in the repeated refrain of "no one but Jesus."
The second verse takes on a more personal tone, as the singer addresses the listener directly and asks if they too have experienced the transformative power of faith. They offer examples of situations that may seem hopeless, such as a terminal diagnosis or a lack of food, but encourage the listener to trust in God's provision and love. The final lines of the song are a call to worship and thanksgiving, exclaiming "Hallelujah, thank you Jesus," as a way of expressing joy and gratitude for all that God has done.
