Fountains of Wayne's former lead guitarist is joining forces with the Berlin Waltz, his new backing band, for their new album, Waterways, due out this fall. Jody Porter is also playing on the group's latest single, “Sunsick Moon,” along with former Fountains of Wayne drummer Brian Young. The new project was recorded in London.
Porter said, “‘Sunsick Moon’ was birthed on the North Sea. It was meant to be an instrumental, but then the lyrics started to flow.”
Earlier this year, Fountains of Wayne’s Adam Schlesinger died of COVID complications. The remaining members reunited to pay tribute to Schlesinger, along with Sharon Van Etten who filled Schlesinger’s place.
