Sat 14 April 2007
BEN KWELLER (USA)
Singer, songwriter and anti-folk hero Ben Kweller returns to Australia with his latest album, simply titled ‘Ben Kweller’. Formerly of the band Radish, Ben Kweller forged his solo career after recording an album in his tiny Brooklyn, New York, apartment. ‘Freak Out … It’s Ben Kweller’ featured Ben on guitar, keyboard, harmonica, glockenspiel, shakers, and, as he says, whatever else I could find. Under Evan Dando’s guide, he toured the States and Europe before releasing 2002s ‘Sha Sha’. The next year he collaborated with Ben Folds and Ben Lee for a series of dates in Australia and appeared on Ben Folds limited edition EP ‘The Bens’. ‘On My Way’ came in 2004, and two years later he returned again with ‘Ben Kweller’ filled with catchy choruses layered on a base of pop rock with full credit to the multi-talented Ben playing on every instrument on the album. Doors: 8.30pm
Tickets $39.80+bf Corner Box Office 11am-8pm Mon-Sat, 9427 9198 or www.cornerhotel.com
