Everyone wants a piece of Rayna James (Connie Britton) when "Nashville" returns for Season 5.

The show has added Cameron Scoggins in a recurring role as Zach Welles, a young Silicon Valley billionaire who also happens to be an obsessive Rayna superfan, TVGuide.com has learned exclusively.



Though he dresses the part and acts self-confident and personable, Zach is still a socially awkward outsider deep down. He connects with Rayna when the two cross paths professionally in the Season 5 premiere - but, as TVGuide.com previously reported, there may be something not that innocent beneath his boyish fandom.

He has the money, the connections and the social media savvy to introduce Rayna's music to a whole new generation, but something tells us his tech expertise isn't the only thing Zach's going to offer up.



His previous credits include guest roles on "The Good Wife", "Person of Interest" and "The Blacklist".

"Nashville" kicks off its fifth season Thursday, Jan. 5 at 9/8c. on CMT.
