About
In 1999, Elijah Kai Solomon Smart was born into the City of Angels, Sprawl and Smog. In order for Eli to grow-up surrounded by nature, unburdened by major city modernity; Mom & Dad hauled ass to Hawaii when he was 5. With the van packed sitting on the drive, they took one last look at their soon-to-be old house, when a willowy man walked by playing the flute: it was Beck. The Smarts settled-in on a farm on the island of Kaua'i. What happened there was magical: nature claimed its course. Under unfathomably starry skies, the farm grew avocados. The parents grew musicians. They bought a shop from a woman who made yarn and opened Hanalei Strings; a store that sold stringed instruments and vinyl records. They built a stage in the shop (it's still there today) and those that performed on it had been taught guitar, ukulele or lap steel by Eli's dad. Eli's Mom performed with the local Hula dancers. Gigs for fundraisers, gigs for birthdays, gigs with mates. The community supported the music and the music supported the community.
