Brothers Bentley, the band that incorporates social and physiological observations into a poetic display of emotion combined with the back beats from Rock, Jazz, Pop, and many other forms of music joined together. In short, their style is acoustically driven alternative rock music. The band starts with the Bentley Brothers (Mark and John). But the concept of “Brothers” extends to more than just the literal meaning. There is a strong family attitude surrounding the other members and the people close to the band.
Released on the Happen-Stance Record Label, one of the major goals for Brothers Bentley is making sure the fans know that their music really isn’t just about the art of creating good material but about the performance too.
“I’m not gonna stand here and say I write songs only for myself, I think that’s kind of selfish… I write songs that the audience can relate (and dance) to.” – Mark Bentley
Each member of Brothers Bentley brings something creative to the table. The inventive style of bassist David Wagner, the focused and powerful jazz chops of drummer Austin Grant, the amazing eclectic skills of lead guitarist John Bentley, and the carefree spontaneity of lead singer Mark Bentley all combine for a very interesting show to watch and listen to.
Mark Bentley, currently the writer of the majority of Brothers Bentley’s music, would boast that he’s been writing music in his head since he was six. Idolizing writers and performers alike such as, Jack Johnson, Outkast, System of a Down, Barenaked Ladies, Erika Baydu, and Louie Armstrong, Bentley often finds himself in a perplexing situation when he proposes a new song to the world. All things considered this band puts on a great show. They make new fans everywhere they go.
