Ben Kweller (nascido em 16 de junho de 1981) é um músico americano de rock e ex-vocalista da banda dos anos 90 Radish, que foi comparada com o Nirvana pela revista Rolling Stone. A banda popularizou-se na cena musical de Dallas, Texas desde sua formação em 1993. Entretanto, a banda foi duramente criticada como apenas uma imitação de Nirvana com um vocalista muito jovem (Kweller ainda era adolescente na época). Entretanto, Kweller, Bryan Blur (baixo) e John Kent (bateria) assinaram com uma grande gravadora, Mercury Records, em 1995.
