The Emmy- and Grammy-winning artist had been hospitalized for more than one week after being diagnosed with COVID-19.

Adam Schlesinger, the co-founder and frontman for the alternative-rock band Fountains of Wayne, has died from complications of COVID-19. He was 52.

But Schlesinger’s prognosis worsened. Another of his attorneys, Josh Grier, told Variety, which first reported the singer’s death, that Schlesinger was “very sick and heavily sedated.” Schlesinger and Rachel Bloom collaborated on the music in her popular The CW show Crazy Ex-Girlfriend — for which he served as series composer. He won an Emmy, with Bloom and fellow lyricist Jack Dolgen, in September.
