Ben Kweller — artist
In late '99 our boy Ben Kweller arrived in NYC and was taken under the wings of rock royalty. Evan Dando, Jeff Tweedy, Juliana Hatfield, and Gordon Gano were among the old garde who saw something special in this melodic dude. The newly formed ATO Records also identified with the artist and signed him to their first exclusive world-wide deal. A "BK buzz" grew around the city as a national spotlight shone down on the local scene as a whole. In the fall of ‘02, he hit the road with his mates The Strokes, The Moldy Peaches, and other fellow up-starts of the day. MTV aired the slacker anthem “Wasted & Ready” and Kweller went from Anti-folk darling to Alt-rock hero overnight. From anthemic bangers to thoughtful ballads, it's a diverse bag that so far spans six albums, four EP’s, and multiple singles.
