Deirks Bentley LIVE! | Walnut Creek
Dierks Bentley
“I got the chance to photograph Dierks Bentley for 94.7 QDR based out of Raleigh NC. I will be honest that I am not much of a country music listener, but I really enjoyed his show. He came out to the crowd and really embraced every moment. He had this huge screen behind the stage that would play videos of the songs he was singing, or they would show fans in the crowd. I even found myself really digging some of the songs. Dierks sounded great and his show was strong and engaging. I would recommend country fans to not miss out on seeing his show. He even got this punk rock indie kid to bop his head, that’s not easy to do. ;)”
