The Magical Summer

INSOUND EXCLUSIVE. With the popularity of Phoenix, Postal Service, and Kings Of Convenience, indie rock's angry core has become kinder and gentler, at least on first listen. Enter Todd Fancey, a Vancouver student of 70's AM radio, whose "other" band is the New Pornographers,. Playing guitars and keyboards in the New Pornographers is a challenge and thrill for Fancey, but he yearned to do something more. Something big. Fancey sounds like nothing else, it's sunny, bouncy, but with a certain sadness to the lyrics. It's classic rock for the indie rock set. It's classy soft rock that invokes the names Beach Boys, Todd Rundgren, Emitt Rhodes, and The Association. It's a grown up sound that reels you in with its infectious melodies and delicious arrangements.
