'Jealous Girl' is the new single from Texan singer-songwriter Ben Kweller, In over a decade making music Kweller has earned a stellar rep for the quality of his songwriting, and 'Jealous Girl' doesn't disappoint - it's an astonishingly catchy slice of classic happy-sad rock'n'roll. 'Jealous Girl' is taken from 'Go Fly A Kite', Kweller's new album released 14th May.
Ben Kweller started writing songs age 9, and signed his first record deal at 15 meaning that now, at the relatively tender age of 30, he has become one of America's most treasured songwriters and performers. 'Go Fly A Kite' is his fifth solo album and the first release on Kweller's new label, Austin-based The Noise Company.
