Andrew Garcia and Ovid perform "Red Sky"

American Idol Season 9 Top 9 contestant Andrew Garcia and Ovid sing "Red Sky" by Thrice.

"He was a part of the Moreno Valley band Ovid for years, with Lance Coronado, Junior Espaderos and Andrew Coronado. Garcia played guitar and brought his unique vocal sound that had hints of rock, pop and R&B to the modern rock band."

This pre-Idol performance, filmed in black and white, has a very old-fashioned vibe to it.
