His father played baseball for the Toledo Mud Hens, and later ran a steel fabrication plant. He began singing while he was at Taylor University, at the time that he became a classmate to White Heart's future lead singer, Rick Florian, when he stood in for the lead singer of his roommate's band. Newly married, he moved to Nashville soon after college. He was able to break into the music industry with the assistance of Michael W. Smith, when the two met in the clothing store where Moore worked. He signed a publishing contract with Paragon Music, a company specialising in writing songs for others, and sang on demo recordings for extra money. |chapter=Geoff Moor
