El grupo fue formado en 1996 por Adam Schlesinger y Chris Collingwood, antiguos compañeros de colegio. Previamente, los dos habían participado en otros grupos: Schlesinger había fundado Ivy en Nueva York y Collingwood The Mercy Buckets en Boston. El nombre del grupo se debe a una tienda de utensilios de jardinería de Wayne, Nueva Jersey, llamada Fountains of Wayne.
A ellos se unieron Brian Young, que había sido batería de The Posies, y Jody Porter, anteriormente en The Belltower. Desde entonces la formación no ha cambiado.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
