Dierks Bentley (born November 20, 1975, in Phoenix, Arizona[1]) is an American country music artist. After years of playing various local venues, Dierks was discovered and signed to Capitol Records in 2003. That year, he released his self-titled debut album. Both it and its follow-up, 2005's Modern Day Drifter, were certified platinum in the United States. A third album, 2006's Long Trip Alone, was certified gold. It was followed in late 2007 by a greatest hits package. Bentley has charted eleven singles on the country singles charts, of which five have reached No. 1: "What Was I Thinkin'," "Come a Little Closer," "Settle for a Slowdown," "Every Mile a Memory," and "Free and Easy (Down the Road I Go)."
