Ben Kweller

Kweller has travelled a long road since leaving high school in the mid '90s to play rock 'n' roll with his teenage punk band Radish. When the group disbanded in 1999, Kweller moved to Brooklyn, NY to pursue a solo career. He flirted with NYC's Anti-Folk scene and self-released a CD called Freak Out It's... Ben Kweller, which caught the ears of Evan Dando, Jeff Tweedy and even Dave Matthews, who signed Kweller to his indie label ATO. 2002 saw the release of the college classic Sha Sha, which ranged from delicate folk-pop to full-on rock freak-outs. He followed up in 2004 with On My Way, which critics hailed for its charming oddness and brightly contagious mix of lithe harmonies and shiny power-pop. Now, by nodding to the rock heroes of the '70s and '80s, Kweller is taking the next step in his natural evolution and perhaps making his mark as today's premier male solo rocker.
