Season 9’s Andrew Garcia celebrates his 26th birthday today. The Moreno Valley, CA native wowed American Idol viewers during Season 9 auditions with hits like Maroon 5’s “Sunday Morning” and former Idol judge Paula Abdul’s “Straight Up.”
He made it all the way until the Top 9 Elvis Presley week, when he was eliminated with his fellow contestant and good friend Katie Stevens.
Happy Birthday, Andrew!
