The Bentbeaks played regularly at top Adelaide night spot The Oxford Club and went on to come equal second in the South Australian heat of Hoadley’s Battle of the Sounds in 1966. The prize was a trip to Sydney to record on the Spin label. They recorded one single only at Bill Armstrong's recording studio near Albert Park Lake in Melbourne called "Caught Red Handed / Raining Sunshine". The Bentbeaks played in Sydney, in Melbourne and all over country Victoria, and in Adelaide and all over country South Australia. The Bentbeaks broke up when the singer’s girlfriend got pregnant. Guitarist Peter Tilbrook joined The Sounds Of Silence and then went on to The Masters Apprentices.
