What do you get when you mix Smashing Pumpkins, Hanson, Fountains of Wayne and Cheap Trick? You get a retro-pop multi-generational grab bag.

Tinted Windows features Taylor Hanson (Hanson), Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne), James Iha (Smashing Pumpkins), and Bun E. Carlos (Cheap Trick).

This new musical collaboration could soon hit the mainstream as their self-titled album is released. Barring any ‘Hanson Stigma’, Tinted windows may turn out to be Tomorrow’s Superband.

It’s clearly not going to replace our day jobs. The initial idea was, let’s just do something for the fun of it. We came together around common bands - the Buzzcocks, the Knack, Cheap Trick - and certain eras of power pop. If we came out with a death-metal band, nobody would go for it. (bostonherald)
