Kelleigh Bannen makes her television debut in the CW’s Hart of Dixie on Tuesday (October 30th). The “Sorry on the Rocks” singer will appear as the “country band” in the Halloween-themed episode of the show. “We’re playing a couple of songs on camera while the story’s unfolding sort of around us at this local party at this local club,” Kelleigh explains. “It was fun. I really didn’t have to act. I just had to lip-synch really well.”

Kelleigh had to be in makeup at 4am and was on the set until after 6pm shooting her scenes, which made for a long day. What made up for the long hours on the soundstage was the catering. “You’re working this kind of really long day in the soundstage, and it’s dark and you kind of don’t even know what time it is, and they keep bringing out new food, like there’s new trays of food that keep showing up,” she says. “Amazing sliders and fries and then berries and whipped cream. I was attacking the berries and the cream.”

Fans will see her perform her debut single “Sorry on the Rocks,” as well as “Be a Man,” which will appear on her forthcoming album, due out next year.
