"Bursting forth from a cloud of purple smoke and heavenly lights, Norman, Oklahoma band The Neighborhood came into existence sometime in the fall of 2004. The trio stumbled out of the haze disoriented and confused, but unified in their one desire: to create great music. In the years since this explosive beginning, The Neighborhood (members: Matt Duckworth, Eric Mai, and Philip Rice) has matured into a successful young band with a loyal fanbase and a captivating live show.
