In addition to playing in the band Fountains of Wayne, he worked on televisions and movies including "My Crazy Ex-Girlfriend," which earned him back to back Emmys and the Tom Hanks-directed movie "That Thing You Do!." which the title track earned Schlesinger an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song. The movie focuses on a fictional small-town band who becomes a sensation in the 60s with the song "That Thing You Do!"
