Adam Schlesinger Tribute Concert Now Up On YouTube

A tribute concert to late songwriter Adam Schlesinger is now up for anyone to view on YouTube.

Schlesinger, who died of COVID in 2020, is best known for his band Fountains of Wayne, and for his extensive TV and movie work – including writing the song “That Thing You Do” from the 1996 movie.

The star-studded virtual concert first streamed last May, featuring stars like Courtney Love, Peter Buck, Mickey Dolenz, James Iha, and Chris Carrabba.

X96 is Utah's Original Alternative. It is self-aware. It is ingrained. It plays bands like Panic! at the Disco, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Cure, and Muse. It's part of a healthy diet and it's why native Utahns are so stout and stalwart. Listen and become part of it and it will become part of you.
