The network announced K-Fed addition to the series' cast Monday August 20th, confirmed that he will portray the role of Jason, described as "a cocky, enigmatic frontman" for No Means Yes, a legendary rock band in the show's fictional setting of Tree Hill, N.C.

"Kevin came in and (auditioned) and he did a great job," Mark Schwahn, the creator of "One Tree Hill," tells People. "He really seemed like a sweet guy and I just felt that he would be great in that."
