Todd Stadtman is an American, San Francisco based author, blogger, songwriter, singer and producer, whose musical works combine an affinity for classic pop songcraft, with a wide range of post-punk, electronic and alternative music influences. As a member of the duo Zikzak – which also featured guitarist/arranger David Rubinstein – he co-wrote, co-produced and performed on the 2000 Bitter Records album release ''See You There''. Following that group's dissolution in 2001, he embarked upon a solo career, releasing two solo albums in the ensuing years. The first of these, 2003's ''Anxotica'', featured contributions from San Francisco soundtrack artists Pray for Rain, singer-songwriter Hannah Marcus and American Music Club guitarist Vudi. For 2005's Prix Fixe Records release ''Only I Can Save You'' – a disc with a far more minimal, electro influenced sound than its predecessor – Stadtman co-produced with Pray for Rain's Dan Wool. Early Career Stadtman made his debut in the San Francisco music scene as singer and bassist for the popular local art-punk band B Team, which released two EPs, ''First Product'' and ''Buy American,'' between 1981 and 1983.
