Dierks Bentley Gets Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum Exhibit

Country hitmaker Dierks Bentley is being honored with his very own exhibit at The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.

The exhibit, entitled Dierks Bentley: Every Mile a Memory, will run March 4, 2016 through Sept. 6, 2016 and will highlight the Arizona native’s career. The exhibition will feature several items from Bentley’s personal collection including guitars, song manuscripts, photos, and stage wear.

“It’s crazy to be considered for something like this,” shares Bentley. “The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum is home to the most revered and influential country artists of all time. Just being in the building as a visitor is humbling, but to actually be featured in one of the museum’s exhibits is something I never would have believed if you’d suggested it back when I started chasing this dream down on Broadway. I’m going to have to go down there to see it for myself to really make it sink in.”

Bentley will have a chance to see it for himself when he makes a special appearance at the museum’s 800-seat CMA Theater on Saturday, March 12, at 2 p.m. In addition to performing a short acoustic set, he will also discuss his career with fans and museum editor Peter Cooper.

“A master of reinvention, Dierks continues to confound our expectations with music that resonates, both commercially and critically,” says museum CEO Kyle Young. “Every mile, every day, every song in Dierks’ remarkable career creates new memories for him and for his fans. I know our visitors will enjoy getting a peek inside some of those memories.”
