Ben Kweller is the self-titled third album by Ben Kweller. It was released September 19, 2006 on ATO Records. For the 9 weeks leading up to the release of the album Ben Kweller previously took footage of himself and made an internet mini-show called "One Minute Pop Song. Each episode would usually run for 2–6 minutes. Topics of the videos were varied

On My Way (Ben Kweller album). On My Way is the second album released by Ben Kweller. All songs were written by Ben Kweller. On My Way was recorded at the same studio (Sear Sound) as Sha Sha, but the approach was completely different. I really wanted to capture the band that had been backing me up for the past year and a half. We recorded everything live, in one room without headphones and hardly any overdubs. I'm very proud of On My Way's spontaneity and honesty

For Ben Kweller, the clock's ticking. He's no 21st century Leif Garrett by any stretch of the imagination, but Kweller, like fellow former teen rocker Daniel John of Silverchair, appears uncertain of his next step after a short-lived grunge backwash band. Although his latest self-titled offering expresses a desire to sound adult, he overshoots the mark, creating an album of innocuous, world-wearied alt-pop that lacks the fun or energy to stay up past eleven. In a nutshell, the song encapsulates the album, a wistful sigh garnished with homogeneous Ben Folds-style accompaniment and a 24-year-old's midlife crisis. Sure, cozying up in Ben Folds' soundscape ain't such a bad idea for Kweller, who's roped a cult following co-opting Folds' silly-yet-sensitive shtick. However, Kweller's ballads consistently lack the gravitas to drop like "Brick"'s, and his more upbeat hooks need sharpening.

On his third, self-titled effort, Ben Kweller takes the notion of "solo album" to the extreme, playing all of the instruments himself. For many artists, this would result in an album that's quiet and insular. However, Ben Kweller is nearly as immediate and direct as Sha Sha and On My Way were, but with a little more focus
