Ben Weasel (born Ben Foster, 1968, in Chicago, Illinois) is a punk rock musician, best known as the lead singer and guitarist of bands Screeching Weasel and The Riverdales. He is currently a solo artist, as well as a gentleman farmer and co-host of "Weasel Radio," a weekly radio show on ESPN 1070.
Musical career
When Ben returned to Illinois from Maine, he got a job as an usher at a movie theater, and formed the band Screeching Weasel with fellow usher John Pierson.
After an initial break-up in 1989, Screeching Weasel broke up for a second time in 1994. Following the second breakup, Weasel formed a new band, The Riverdales, with Dan Vapid, and Dan Panic.
Weasel reunited with Screeching Weasel again in 1996. The band lasted until 2001 before breaking up again. Screeching Weasel would reunite again for a few shows in 2004, but have no plans to reunite again. The Riverdales also reformed in 2003. On his 11-19-08 broadcast of Weasel radio, Weasel announced that the Riverdales will record new album, which is in the demo recording stage, set to be released in 2009.
Weasel has also done work as a solo artist. In 2002, he released his first solo album Fidatevi. His second album, These Ones Are Bitter, was released in June 2007.
In addition to Screeching Weasel, The Riverdales, and his solo work, Weasel frequently collaborates with the band The Queers, co-writing many of their songs. Queers frontman Joe Queer recently stated he has a project in the works with Ben Weasel, Marky Ramone and B-Face.
Weasel also ran his own Chicago-based record label, called Panic Button Records, which he also started in 1997 with Jughead. In 1998 the label was purchased by Lookout! Records when Screeching Weasel resigned to Lookout!.Ben currently has a label called, "Mendota Recording Company", which is a digital download only record label.
He has also played briefly with The Vindictives and Sweet Black And Blue.
