Fountains of Wayne on stage with America! Fountains of Wayne joined up with America at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank, NJ on June 24, 2009. Please visit The Count Basie Theatre for more information. 
Anchored by songwriters Adam Schlesinger (bass) and Chris Collingwood (vocals, guitar), with Brian Young (drums) and Jody Porter (guitar), Fountains of Wayne have been hailed for tight pop songwriting reminiscent of influences as diverse as the Zombies, Simon and Garfunkel, the Cars and Randy Newman. Their debut release was #2 on Billboard Magazine’s 1996 Critics’ Poll, and yielded the hit single “Radiation Vibe.” Their second album, Utopia Parkway, was a People Magazine Album of the Week, and their third release, Welcome Interstate Managers, included the massive hit single “Stacy’s Mom.” Blender Magazine named their next release, Traffic and Weather, “One of the reasons to love 2007.” They recorded the theme for the Comedy Central show Crank Yankers, and Adam Schlesigner received an Academy Award nomination for the title song for the film That Thing You Do!, and has produced albums for the Verve Pipe They Might Be Giants, and America.
