Throughout high school Durrell Bennett wrote songs and wanted to be a music producer. His dad urged him to hit the books and focus on more practical pursuits, he said.
“In his high school years, he and I would battle about that,” Dempsey Bennett said. “But he was determined.”
Durrell Bennett’s MySpace page reads: “Most of my spare time i love to do music thats my first love, im not tryin too make it big or anything like evrybody else. This is just a hobbie, but if it happens i wont complain.”
