Tinted Windows

Hometown: New York, NY
Why they matter: Taylor Hanson (yes, of that Hanson) joins ex-Smashing Pumpkin guitarist James Iha, Fountains of Wayne songsmith Adam Schlesinger, and Cheap Trick drummer Bun E. Carlos. Need we say more?
You should know: Schlesinger first met Hanson in 1996, and the first Tinted Windows song came from a songwriting workshop at the Hansons' Oklahoma studio three years ago.

LISTEN: Tinted Windows, "Kind of a Girl"
