Ben Kweller(born June 16, 1981) is an American rockmusician and former lead singer of the 1990s band Radish, which was compared to Nirvanain Rolling Stone Magazine. The band grew in popularity in the Dallas, Texas music scene from its formation in 1993. However, the band was dismissed by critics as little more than an imitation of Nirvana with the novelty of an extremely young lead vocal-guitarist (Kweller was in his teens for the entire existence of the band). Nonetheless, Kweller and his two bandmates, bassist Bryan Blur and drummer John Kent, were signed to a major record label in 1995 by Mercury Records. Regardless of a much-hyped beginning, which included appearances on Conan O'Brien and David Letterman, Radish failed to strike big success with either its first record Dizzy or its sophomore effort Restraining Bolt.

My Apartment Lyrics
Ben Kweller
Sometimes I wish I had a farm
where the only pollution is your cigarttes,
where you mind is clear.
But I like it here in my small space.
New York's the place where the sidewalks know my face
as I walk to
my apartment, the home where I hide
away from all the darkness outside.
I'm there all the time.
Bikes ride to the park and city pools.
It's summer now; empty the schools.
Fly home to my cat on the F train.
I'm protected from pain
when I'm in
my apartment, the home where I hide
away from all the darkness outside.
I'm there all the time.
I'm there in my apartment, the home where I hide
away from all the darkness outside.
I'm there all the time.
