Fire Eyed Dali

Fire Eyed Dali is a band formed by Clayton and Cameron Bentley.  The twin brothers began their band The Payments in the 90's with drummer Keith Warren. Keith is still in the band but was stricken with MS and confined to a wheelchair. The twins have continued on, Tony Anthos was on drums during the early 2000's.  Cameron is now taking up drums as a third instrument. Once known as The Payments and playing in such areas as Sacto, Santa Cruz and Los Angeles.  Now aging like a fine wine and going through a band name change, they intend to release a prolific amount of songs.  In 2026 they have released 5 singles and a remastered album titled The Payments recorded in the So Cal desert in 2004.  They continue to collaberate with friends from old bands, mainly their bandmates from Nasscar Poets (1999-2002), Eli Veil and Carl Jordan.  In Nasscar Poets Cam played bass and Clay played rhythm guitar.  Look for many more songs and albums to come.

Fire in their Eyes because of Dali

The fire in your eyes!!!

Starting off in the Central Valley of California the Bentley twins first band, Pure Poison, was in fifth grade with their childhood friend Eli Veil.  Clayton followed Eli to college in Santa Cruz while Cameron joined the Army.  In Santa Cruz we met Carl who transferred to UC Santa Cruz from UCLA.  They had a fairly large friend group at Santa Cruz and everyone was so talented with music and art.  Eli, and Clayton lived in a beach house with Matt who was also from the Merrill College freshman hall friend group of 92-93 year.  There was Krisnadi “Pooks”, Arn, Linus, Mark “Heyman”, Dave Dew, Shwa, and Ben.  Then there was Eli. Carl, and Clayton too and when Cam got out of the Army he joined the party.  Later a few buddies from my hometown came to Santa Cruz too, like Keith our old drummer.  Also Shayne from Winters brought Lanham from Maryland, classic buddy.  There was always art and music going on, with some art and film majors in the mix and several musicians, bands were started. There was Hot Box, Rutsey Band, The Payments, Foothill.   Eventually, Carl, Eli, Cam and I ended up in LA and started a band called Nasscar Poets.  That Eventually led to Cam leaving and the name changed to The Working Poor.  Eventually I left and Arn joined with some other dudes too.  Eventually Carl started The Western States Motel and shared a lock out with The Payments.
