Johnathon Schaech, Ethan Embry, and Tom Everett Scott rocked the Roxy on Tuesday night.
The trio’s on-stage performance in Los Angeles marked the latest semi-reunion of The Wonders, formerly named The Oneders, from the 1996 movie That Thing You Do! While they were sans Tom Hanks, who played Mr. White, Schaech (Jimmy Mattingly), Embry (the unnamed bass player), and Scott (Shades) rocked out to the titular song.
“I hate that song,” Embry recalled to EW of the track for the film’s 20th anniversary. “I remember it reached that point of, like, ‘I can’t play this song one more time.

The crowd at the Roxy in L.A. received an unexpected bonus last night when That Thing You Do! movie band The Wonders (a.k.a. Oneders)—Tom Everett Scott (drummer Shades), Johnathon Schaech (singer Jimmy), and bass player Ethan Embry (The Bass Player)—reunited onstage to perform their singular, eponymous hit. Josh Adam Meyers facilitated the reunion for The Goddamn Comedy Jam; EW reports that Everett Scott teased the event out on Twitter “with a link pointing to The Goddamn Comedy Jam with Bill Burr: ‘Tonight at the Roxy there might be a little surprise for Ttyd.’”
