A United Kingdom based band named after the founder and leader's older brother, Ben's Brother formed in 2006. Led by Jamie Hartman, who is the band's principal songwriter, the band -- which included Kiris Houston on keyboards and guitar, Dan McKinna on bass, Dave Hattee on drums, and Tim VanDerKuil on guitar -- released their debut album, Beta Male Fairytales, in August 2007. The album spawned a number of singles, and the track "Stuttering" found its way onto an American chewing gum commercial.
