Artist History Bentley first learned to play guitar in junior high and worked to emulate his idols, The Beatles in learning to play music and ultimately in writing and recording his original music. While having taken part in several bands, Bentley has enjoyed the artistic control brought by the new technologies of multi-track recording. With the digital revolution, home studios can now be of such amazing quality that, in the mind of Bentley, there is no reason to not take advantage of the amazing place we are in historically with what we are able to achieve through the meeting of our creative expression and the opportunites which digital recording technologies allow us to achieve.
