Will Smith began his musical life in the New Orleans Brass Band tradition through The Fairview Baptiste Christian Brothers Brass Band under the direction of musician , author, and educator Danny Barker. He went on to perform with The Doc Pauline Band, Olympia Band, and the Pin Stripe Band. He spent a great deal of his youth at Preservation Hall, where he formed a love for authentic, traditional New Orleans jazz: his true passion.
