![]() In a telephone interview after being awakened from yet another stop in Los Angeles, he says he was one date short of completing a tour with Hanson and joining MTV’s Rock The Vote when his agent called him two years ago to say “One Tree Hill” was casting musicians. And we were expecting just to have an appearance, but they ended up writing us into the story line and then turning it into a whole tour.” “We played for them and they pretty much immediately asked us to be on the show. While recording last fall, “we were just meeting with a bunch of different people and “One Tree Hill’ happened to be one of our stops,” Harp says. And I turned my car around and said “OK.”‘ In June, Harp says, she “was literally in my car driving to Nashville to sign my solo record deal” when Branch called her and told her they should record “before you sign with someone and it gets more complicated. “And we’d always kind of talked about, jokingly, doing a band, but when we saw what a huge response it was getting, we were like, “Hmm, maybe there’s something to this.”‘ “It was just getting this huge response,” Harp says. Harp, 23, in a telephone interview from another stop in Salt Lake City, says she and Branch wrote “The Good Kind” “a long time ago” and sang it at shows last spring, when she was a backup singer for Branch. Lenz left tours with Hanson and MTV’s Rock the Vote to join the cast of “One Tree Hill.” It helped that Lenz has a background in musical theater, and Hilton is actually a singer whose major-label debut, “The Tracks Of … ,” was released in September. “I mean, I think it’s just a brilliant way to market the show and make some extra money and get some new fans and get additional publicity.” “I’m sure it came from the marketing department,” Lenz says, laughing in a telephone interview last week from a tour stop in Las Vegas.
