The Zambonis are a Connecticut-based indie rock band formed in 1991 by musicians Dave Schneider (The LeeVees), Peter Katis, Jon Aley, and Tarquin Katis. The Zambonis write songs exclusively about ice hockey. Schneider says of the band’s musical style: “We’re the only band in the world whose two biggest influences are The Beatles and Wayne Gretzky!”[1]
The NHL has commissioned the group to compose theme songs for the Boston Bruins and the Colorado Avalanche.[2] The band has toured with the Stanley Cup[3] and fundraised for Matt Cullen’s organization, Cullen Children’s Foundation.[4]
In deference to the ice resurfacer and Frank Zamboni, The Zambonis are a licensee of the Zamboni Company.

Matt Rhone cut his teeth as a child performing at Girl Scout Camp and has been chasing that high ever since. He hob-knobs together a group of real degenerates who accompany him while he performs however he wants to. Nobody has asked him to stop. Yet.
His moniker is Massive Diva for a reason.
“A Fine American Mess.”
