Fancey 2009

FANCEY BIOGRAPHY:

Todd Fancey lives in Vancouver, British Columbia and was raised as a student of 70s AM Radio Gold. Currently best known as the guitarist for The New Pornographers, Todd has also crafted two albums full of energetic, supercharged indie pop (and studio wizardry) under his own band name, Fancey.

Anastasia Siozos, the lead singer of Fancey was born and raised in Vancouver and comes for a Greek background. Her songwriting collaboration with Todd began on his previous album "Schmancey", as co-writer of the song "Witches Night" and as a back up vocalist on the album.

With a brand new album under their belts Todd and Anastasia are playing live shows in Vancouver and looking to take the new material on the road in 2009 and 2010. If you want to know what the new tunes are like you can listen to clips right here on www.fancey.org

Fancey's music is most often and most simply described as "soft rock that rocks," but of course there's more to it than that:

"a varied, always melodic, and an often breathtaking tour through '70s pop and more recent indie pop" - AllMusic.com

"That pop music can be feel-good without being saccharine seems to be a point in need of reminder. Leaving a Post-It on the fridge is Todd Fancey, with his breezy, blue-sky debut. "Carry Me" layers sun-drenched Beach Boys' harmonies, bouncy Wurlitzer and the requisite escapist lyrics about leaving town or going into outer space." - Rolling Stone on Fancey’s 2004 debut

“…the coolest New Pornographers side project yet” –Boston Herald
