Art was featured on the Fox 27 Morning News.  Rob Evans conducted the interview as part of the Artist of the Month series.  Art also performed two songs.  The whole thing was shot at the historic Gilloiz theatre in downtown Springfield, MO.  Thanks to Rob and the whole crew at Fox.  The clips may also be viewed on line at Ozarksfirst.com.

Thanks to the readers of 417 magazine!  They voted Art "Best solo male musician" for the 4th consecutive year.  Art performed at the "Best of" party recently held at the Springfield Expo Center.  To check out 417 magazine or to subscribe: go to 417mag.com.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hey, everybody-

Still working on the new disc. Sorry it's taking longer than expected. (everything does)
Thanks for being patient.  I hope you find it worth the wait.

There is a new fan club in the works. The pres. and founder, Sheri is in the process of getting the details together.  Anyone interested in joining can shoot an email to Artbentley3@cs.com and she will contact you with details.

Also- myspace/artbentley is more up to date now. I'm trying to make time for that as well. If you want bulletins and more interaction go there to see what's up.

The Fox news feature is now appearing on U-Tube. Thanks to whoever posted it.

Also: Thanks to the Victory Mission for making me grand Marshall of their 14th annual Motorcycle Ride and fund raiser.  Their work in the Springfield community is very diverse and quite productive.  I was honored to be a part of that event.

Thanks for your ongoing support- see ya all soon- Art

  "Not to be dismissed solely as a cover performer, Bentley adds his own style to each song that turns them into originals."
- Kansas City's Pitch Weekly

"Art Bentley; a truly gifted vocalist with the charisma of a long-time friend.  He is an original musician who's style will not lie dormant.  Even his covers come out sounding like Art Bentley (which is very good)."
- Springfields' Local Anesthetic

Note to clubs: Art Bentley has sound and lights ample for all venue sizes.
