Ben Kweller

Studio 360

At 14 he was fronting a signed punk band. Now a wise man of 27, Ben Kweller‘s music is full of lush melodies and plainspoken lyrics. Kurt talked with Kweller in 2007 and asked him what childhood was like as a famous kid rocker. Kweller’s new record is called Changing Horses.
