Todd George Fancey is a Canadian guitarist, keyboardist, and solo artist. He is most widely known as the guitarist for Vancouver-based indie rock band The New Pornographers and the bassist for the band Limblifter. Fancey is originally from Nova Scotia.

Early life

Fancey was born in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Solo career

Fancey released his first solo album, Fancey on March Records in 2004. His second solo album, Schmancey, was released November 13, 2007 on What Are Records?.

Television

In 2008, Fancey participated off screen in an episode of The Office entitled "Dinner Party". He portrayed Hunter (usually portrayed by Nicholas D'Agosto), Jan's administrative assistant who may have lost his virginity to her and wrote a song about it, although the storyline never revealed any evidence of such. The song, called 'That One Night," was co-written by Fancey, Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg. The episode was nominated for an Emmy Award.

In April 2018 Todd was interviewed by Rolling Stone's Andy Greene Article about The Office Dinner Party episode. https://www.rollingstone.com/tv/features/the-office-john-krasinski-ed-helms-jenna-fischer-oral-history-dinner-party-episode-w518726
