Bentley visits late night TV
Thursday, July 22, 2010 – Dierks Bentley will treat television audiences to the debut of two new tracks from "Up on the Ridge" on late night TV next week.
Bentley will perform the ballad Fallin' For You on the Late Show with David Letterman on July 27 and Draw Me A Map on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on July 28.
"A lot of times when you get invited to do these shows, you end up doing the same song over and over...usually whatever your current radio single is at the time," said Bentley. "It's really flattering that folks were listening and asking for deeper album cuts. I love being able to highlight as many of these songs as possible because I think they are all special."

He's been recording for 20 years now. Yet Bentley has come this far with his integrity still intact. He's back with a strong, 14-song set that, like a good beverage, feels good ...
Dierks Bentley seems intent on expanding his musical boundaries, but he may have overreached too much in eschewing where he came from.
That most evident by the dominating textured beats. Producer Ross Copperman and Bentley seem hell bent on injecting odd meters and sounds, sharp detours from past efforts. Unfortunately, the atmospheric beats muddy up the vocal delivery on "Freedom," a song that stretches far too long at almost four minutes. Bentley also channels U2 with its ...
Change was in store for Dierks Bentley when it came to recording his seventh album, "Riser." On the personal front, he lost his father and added to his family, clearly affecting the subject matter of his latest.
