Dierks Bentley full of surprises 

By Nancy Wilson

Yet another reason to love Dierks Bentley.    Yesterday on "Ellen", he presented a $50,000 check to a military family going thru some tough times.    After recording "Home", DB joined forces with Believe in Heroes, a Wounded Warrior Project initative, to support and honor wounded vets.      "The song was really written in the spirit of hopefully bringing people together who are going through really hard times right now," Dierks tells The Boot of 'Home.' "To think about what we've accomplished in the past and what we can do together in the future. The song is universal."   When Sgt. Chad Sparks lost his finger on duty in Afghanistan and was forced to return home, he and his wife resorted to selling their furniture, appliances and other personal items on Craigslist to help support their one-year-old daughter, as he prepares to redeploy.    Read more here.    Amazing story.

 
GQ  Magazine says Dierks was among the Best-Dressed Men at the Grammys, wearing a black crewneck and slacks and well worn leather jacket.    Dierks is currently on his  Cold Cans and Country tour.  Check the tour dates here.   Got his new CD Home yet?   Here's "5150!"  (somebody call da po-po!)
