Joe Bennett and the Sparkletones were a teen rock and roll band from Spartanburg, South Carolina. The guys in the band were Joe Bennett (vocals, guitar; born in 1941), Howard Childress (guitar), Wayne Arthur (bass) and Irving Denton (drums).
They only had three songs on the Billboard chart, with their 3rd single not reaching the top 100 but peaked at #105.
