Tells the unlikely tale of a fictitious Erie, Pennsylvania band called The Wonders. With the help of a catchy single, these likeable teenagers go from garage band to nationwide sensation within a matter of months. But when they reach the top, how long will they be able to stay there?

The four actors playing The Wonders rehearsed as a band for eight weeks to get the feel of performing - but most of their performances in the film were dubbed by other musicians.

Phil Horace:
I've found that a hit record is like a stew. All the ingredients have to come together just right. Otherwise, it's just soup.

Continuity: At the Play Tone reception, Lenny can be seen holding the record high after being seen lowering it.
