Rogue Wave [ tickets ], a four-piece alt-rock band based in Oakland, CA, have mastered the art of producing soundtrack singles. Together since lead singer Zach Schwartz (a.k.a. Zach Rogue) founded the group back in 2002, the dynamic rockers have contributed to Xbox's "Stubbs: The Zombie Soundtrack," "Napoleon Dynamite" and "Just Friends," as well as episodes of notable television shows "Heroes," "Friday Night Lights" and "Weeds," among others.

The quartet's first two albums, "Out of the Shadows" and "Descended Like Vultures," resulted in national support tours, followed by their most recent release, September 2007's "Asleep at Heaven's Gate," on Jack Johnson's Brushfire imprint. Rogue Wave is currently in the midst of a summer tour supporting Johnson, with dates scheduled through the end of August.
