The Neighbourhood is an American rock band formed in Newbury Park, California, in 2011. Known for blending indie rock, alternative rock, and elements of R&B and electronic music, the group's sound often features moody, atmospheric arrangements, minimalist production, and hushed, introspective vocals. They gained mainstream attention in the early 2010s and have been active since that period, producing records characterized by monochromatic aesthetic choices and a mix of guitar-driven and synth-based textures. Their work frequently emphasizes mood, lyrical introspection, and a crossover appeal between alternative and pop sensibilities.
