Original music by Dalton Bentley and Chas Thomas

When musicians talk about being “tight,” they mean that the music flows naturally during performances, taking whatever course it will and uniting and harmonizing the individual creativity of the players as if they are following a chart, a musical composition already written. Chas Thomas and Dalton Bentley have always been “tight.”

Back in the early 70s quite often after Chas and Dalton finished a gig in local rock night clubs, they would go to someone's house, accompanied by band members and fans who followed them from the night club venue, and jam on acoustic guitars until the sun came up the next morning.

Working upon that musical synchronicity which they always shared, Chas and Dalton began playing together again in 2008, forging ahead into new work, lyrics and melodies not heretofore experienced, bringing with them the musical landscape and spiritual heritage of the 60s and 70s and telling lyrical stories relevant in any time. Engineering and operating their own recording studio, they published the Out of Time (2010) and Just One More Time (2011) albums in mp3 format.
