Ben Kweller
Event location: KOKO Camden. Ongoing event.
Tickets to Ben Kweller at KOKO Camden in London.
"Hi, my name is Ben Kweller. Nice to meet you." is the first thing you read on rocker Ben Kweller's MySpace page and you just know you want more! Having already had hits with his first band, the punk rock trio Radish when he was just a teenager, his solo music has a purpose and a quirkiness that makes you feel good and at just 25 years old here is a chance to see someone that you'll be telling your grandkids about. He's also apparently had lunch with Madonna and was stunned when Evan Dando cold called him to 'hang out' ...oh and one of his favourite bands is Violent Femmes (aren't they everyone's? - ed), so get down to KOKO and be prepared to be amazed!
Ben Kweller was born in San Francisco, CA in 1981. In 1982 his family relocated to Emory, TX where his father Howard Kweller became the town's first doctor. In 1986, The Kwellers moved to a much larger city, Greenville, TX. Ben was exposed to music at a very early age. Howard taught Ben how to play the drums when he was 7 years old. For the next year, the father and son would jam together almost every night after Howard got home from work. With Howard singing and playing guitar and Ben keeping the beat, the duo would play songs by The Beatles, The Hollies, Jimi Hendrix, and other artists of the 1960s.
