Fountains Of Wayne guitarist Jody Porter is set to release his debut solo album next month. The album, ‘Close To The Sun’, is set for release August 26 and was produced by Porter and Michael Tudor with Strokes producer Gordon Raphael producing one track. In the past Porter has collaborated with artists including Albert Hammond, Jr. and Juliana Hatfield, but this is the first time the guitarist goes at it alone. Porter is expected to announce a fall tour in support of the forthcoming album.
