Michael Des Barres will bring some real-life rock star chops to NCIS this fall.

The former frontman for the '70s band Detective, Des Barres will portray an aging one-hit wonder from that era who lived the high life, then blew all his money as his fame dimmed and has been dodging creditors ever since.

The British rocker-actor will appear on the third episode of NCIS Season 10.

“This is a very fun episode and Michael Des Barres brings tremendous humor and idiosyncrasy to a character he knows oh-too-well,” EP Gary Glasberg said. “We really lucked out having him join us.”

Des Barres has also appeared on Suits and Bones in recent years.
