After  working several years in the theaters and theme parks of the Branson, Missouri area, Carl noticed a need in the many cities of this great nation  for the kind of wholesome family entertainment that he had so long been a  part of. As it turns out Carl was right. Along with a group of versatile  entertainers, Carl has traveled 42 states and works over 300 days annually performing for thousands of people.

This kind of determination finally caught the eye of Something Else Records A & R department in late 1999.  By mid-2000 Carl had his 1st national release with his CD  "You're In Love With The Wrong Man" and then again in the fall with a Christmas CD entitled "All I Want For Christmas Is You". 

Carl has also been nominated for several prestigious awards such as Entertainer of the Year, Songwriter of the Year, and Country and Western Traditional Artist of the Year on the CMAA Indie Label awards show in Nashville.

Some of Carl's  career highlights include: opening shows for Steve Warner, Freddie Hart, and Razzy Bailey. Headliner at the Grand Casino, Tunica; The Dakota Sioux Casino, Watertown, SD; The  Miss Marquette Casino, Marquette, IA; The Tanner Amphitheater, St. George,  UT; along with working for many RV rallies, corporate functions, and of  course, many fairs, festivals, and night clubs throughout the US.

The Benders are polished and professionals and are sought out by such musical legends as The Platters, and The Marvellettes. Rock and Roll Hall of Famer , Billy Richards, lead singer of The Coasters says, " These guys are show business. Whenever we're in the midwest, we ask to work with The Benders

The Benders understand that the entertainment they provide for your event reflects directly on you and we will do their part to create a positive reflection. The Benders come from the old school of entertainment, They believe people hear with their eyes as well as their ears, so looking good is a priority. The Benders not only have exceptional musical talent, but dressing and performing with class and style for every show they perform is the status quo. We look good so you look good!        

Saxophonist Kevin May sums up The Benders approach like this, " We take the word showbiz serious, we know that the show comes first, and without it, there would be no "biz".
