That Thing You Do Soundtrack

The McGuigan Brothers rewind to 1996 and the Playtone Galaxy where a fake band called The Wonders somehow scored a real hit! We dig into how Tom Hanks wrote, directed, and accidentally created one of the most convincing pop worlds ever to be put on film, complete with surf rock, girl groups, and a perfect two-minute-fifty-two second single.It’s the story of how “That Thing You Do!” went from a movie prop to an Oscar-nominated song that still makes you clap on two and four.
