House M.D. star Hugh Laurie has signed a deal with Warner Music to record a New Orleans blues album this summer.

"I am drunk with excitement at this opportunity," Laurie said in a statement Monday. "I know the history of actors making music is a checkered one, but I promise no one will get hurt."

Laurie, who plays the lead character Dr Gregory House in the hit medical drama House MD, is often seen playing the piano and guitar on the show. He is a keyboard player for the Los Angeles charity rock group Band From TV and recently played on Meat Loaf's latest album "Hang Cool Teddy Bear."

The album, set for release in the fall, will feature several guest musicians from New Orleans.
