    Huntley dominated the competition during season 24 of The Voice. Performances like Bon Jovi’s “Dead or Alive” and Creed’s “Higher” kept him around week after week. Finally, the Virginia blues-rocker helped coach Niall Horan nab his second championship in as many seasons when viewers crowned him the winner. Huntley has kept fans updated on his life via social media, but fans are always asking the same question: “When is your album coming out?” Fortunately, a recent announcement from Huntley brings us one step closer to the answer.
