About

Oneida is an American experimental rock band from Brooklyn, New York, United States. Their music incorporates improvisation, repetition, driving rhythms, antique and analog equipment, and eclecticism. They have been described as being influenced by psychedelic rock, space rock, krautrock, early electronic music, noise rock, and minimalism.

In the late 1990s, Oneida pioneered a culture of performance in nontraditional spaces throughout Brooklyn, NY, including warehouses, vacant theaters and storefronts, parking lots and garages, boats, and industrial facilities. They are recognized as the progenitors of what would become a thriving and widely influential Brooklyn experimental rock scene. They have also been recognized in gallery and museum culture, performing at the Guggenheim Museum, MoMA PS1, MassMOCA, and the Knovxille Museum of Art, among others.
