Edna's Goldfish was a ska punk band from Long Island.

Together from 1997 to 2000, their studio albums include Before You Knew Better (1998) and "The Elements of Transition" (1999), both released on Moon Ska Records. The video for their song "Veronica Sawyer" received some airplay on the MTV show 120 Minutes. The band toured with bands such as The Toasters, Catch 22, Mustard Plug, Reel Big Fish, and Less Than Jake.

After their 2000 tour with Rx Bandits and The Gadjits, the band decided to split in order to pursue other interests. Singer Brian Diaz went on to form The Reunion Show with ex-members of Step Lively and The Lightweights. Trombonist Ian McKenzie continued to play with Catch 22. Bass player Kris Baldwin did some session work for Epic Records and then recorded and played with Action Action. As of 2010, Kris Baldwin works in visual effects for a leading 3D film conversion company in San Diego, California. In the beginning of April 2005, the members of Edna's Goldfish reunited to play a cancer benefit concert at the Crazy Donkey, in Farmingdale, NY, for a friend of the band who had cancer. [1]

In 2009, Edna's Goldfish played their first show in four years on May 2 at the Bamboozle Festival in East Rutherford, NJ at the Meadowlands Sports Complex.[1]
