Elliott Photo From March 1987
Uncovered a photo of a 17-year-old Elliott Smith performing with his high school band, Stranger Than Fiction. The band was one of a handful spotlighted in a 03/08/1987 article in The Oregonian newspaper. The article also includes this striking quote from Smith:
“Music is what I want to do—it’s not a passing phase,’” Smith said. That intensity, the 17-year-old knows, sometime results in having “a certain amount of resentment to deal with. I’m more driven to complete band projects.”
