Join E. James Smith for a nostalgic walk down a country road in historic Wolfeboro, New Hampshire. In the gravel by the side of the road he discovers a shiny object. He picks it up to find it is a button that features 39th President of the United States Jimmy Carter. Carter is seen holding raw peanuts and the text reads, “America Needs Carter • A Man of the Soil.” Thus begins the music video for The Detail Man, the first in a series featuring “The Man in White”, a recurring character created by E. James Smith, who walks (or canoes) through different environments as the band plays along back in the East Village.

The ”Side of the Road” sequences were shot by Stephen Arnold in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire.

The live band sequences were shot by Paul Allman at the famous 11th Street Bar in the heart of Manhattan’s East Village.

The E. James Smith Band performed live on October 10, 2023 at 11th Street Bar. Playing that night were E. James Smith (lead vocal/guitar), Al Reynolds (lead guitar/vocals), Pete Iannitto (bass), and Kevin Kinane (drums/vocals). Stay tuned to this YouTube channel for many more videos from this live event and more music videos featuring “The Man in White”.
