News and Notes: The Weepies to make TV debut

Already familiar to TV audiences with their music, Deb Talan and Steve Tannen of The Weepies will play themselves in an episode of ABC’s “Dirty Sexy Money,” this Wednesday, according to an e-mail the group sent to their fans.

While their songs have been used in shows like “One Tree Hill,” “Grey’s Anatomy” and “How I Met Your Mother,” this will mark the prime-time screen debut for the bandmates, who are also married and have a child together.

The Weepies also had their song, “Can’t Go Back Now,” recently featured in a Barack Obama ad.

UPDATE: In case you missed it, ABC has the episode online. If you don’t feel like watching the whole soap opera, you can skip to the last chapter. It’s short, but definitely sweet.
