C.J Harris’s fellow Idol contestant Jessica Meuse paid tribute to the celebrity on Instagram.

“The world is clearly a darker and eerily quieter place without you in it,” she wrote. “Your brilliance and smile will be missed.” “Your sporadic phone calls asking for life advice and chatting about the music industry will be missed. There are many things that I recognize I will never fully comprehend, and your abrupt departure from our community is one of them.”

The performer initially appeared on an American Idol bus tour in Tuscaloosa, and then in Salt Lake City, she sang for judges Keith Urban, Jennifer Lopez, and Harry Connick Jr.

He received three votes for Hollywood for his rendition of the Allman Brothers hit “Soulshine,” which he dedicated to his father. He also delivered memorable renditions of other hits like “Can not You See” by The Marshall Tucker Band and “If It Had not Been for Love” by The SteelDrivers.

Harris appeared at the Grand Ole Opry with Darius Rucker after his experience on the programme, and he later issued the song “In Love” in 2019. On TikTok and Instagram, he frequently posted videos of himself singing and playing the guitar. In October, he posted on Facebook that he was writing new music in Muscle Shoals, Alabama.

Additionally, the musician announced on January 1 that “new music is coming shortly.” The musician also recalled how his mother used to sing to him on the phone while she was imprisoned, sparking his early love of music.

He claimed, “Tears would just run out of my eyes.” I received a guitar from my grandfather when I was a bit older. One with three strings belonged to him and was kept in the shed. He advised me not to purchase an entirely new set of strings. Therefore, I would tune it such that when I strung it, it sounded like it was in any key. I hear various sounds. I just love music so I really try to find a sound that I really like and just play it.
