ONEIDA
The uncategorizable trio Oneida (parsing psychedelia, minimalism, maximalism, and all kinds of rock) has been intimately associated with Williamsburg's colorful creative community for the past decade. It has been as transformative an era for the band as it has been for the neighborhood and their contributions to Up on the Roof's soundtrack reflects their affinity with the post-industrial, utopian creations of the area. In 2004, the Village Voice called Oneida "New York City's smartest and most prolific rock band." Find out more about them at www.enemyhogs.com
