Other notable names in the fledgling band are Bob Guiney of "The Bachelor" fame and "Cashmere Mafia" actress Bonnie Somerville.

Grunberg, who places telepath Matt Parkman on the popular NBC series, said all profits from the DVD/CD album will benefit various charities.

"Having bandmates who also happen to be in some of the most popular shows on television creates an amazing opportunity to really reach out to our fans to help support these wonderful causes," he said.

The "ET" Web site said the album includes the amateur musicians covering 13 hits such as "Piece of My Heart" and "Mustang Sally."
