Adam Schlesinger, co-founder of Fountains of Wayne, has died at the age of 52 due to coronavirus complications. The singer and guitarist, perhaps best known for the band's signature hit Stacy's Mom, passed away at a hospital in New York, his lawyer Josh Grier told The Associated Press.
It is unknown how Schlesinger contracted the virus, and he was reported to be on a ventilator and 'very sick and heavily sedated' in the days previous, his lawyer had told Variety.
