The Benton's describe themselves as "musicianaries" - a term rather fitting for a couple who has given up on the "American Dream" and has taken a leap of faith by selling nearly everything they've owned, spending many years living out of an RV, relying on donations as they do not charge performance fee's all while traveling the world as a shock and roll band by the name of White Collar Sideshow.
Frontman/drummer TD says about their group, "We're just about loving on people and music is just a good excuse to do that." Their latest album is nearing completion and has once again been produced by Chris Baseford (Rob Zombie, Shinedown, Avril Lavigne). They have recently transitioned from a three-piece (sometimes four-piece) band to a duo so that is sure to effect the dynamics of their sound and performance. A new show is on the horizon but for now The Benton's are in preparation and patiently waiting for what lies ahead.
Immediately following this episode, listen to their song, "Tombstones for Eyes", a version of the song that was recorded from their time in Brazil.
