Actress Cassidy Freeman may play a villain on the TV series “Smallville,” but her Guest DJ set is dedicated to songs about family and friendship, from a body rockin’ electro track to a gentle acoustic lullaby about love and desire. Cassidy’s character Tess Mercer is the manipulative ruler of the LuthorCorp in the CW hit drama and will be featured in a special, 2-hour extended episode written by DC Comics favorite Geoff Johns later this month. Also, she is a former KCRW volunteer! She worked diligently in KCRW’s Music Library alongside Eric J Lawrence, who now serves as her host. Her set is as eclectic as you would expect from a KCRW volunteer alum. Check it out here
