Depp was also reportedly instrumental in getting the producers on board for Ex-Maniac, which is due for release by the Stephen Jones-fronted band in February 2010.
A group spokesman told MTV: "Grammy nominated producers Bruce Witkin and Ryan Dorn were introduced to Jones by long-time Babybird fan Johnny Depp, who makes a cameo appearance on the new recording."
Depp is also rumoured to be directing the video for Babybird's comeback single.
In 1997, Depp played slide guitar on 'Fade In-Out' for Oasis's Be Here Now LP after performing on the band's 'Fade Away' re-recording for The Help Album two years earlier.
