The folks at Smash Mouth Hockey asked us if we would write them a song, we wrote and recorded the song in one night while eating a spicy sausage and hot red pepper pizza pie. Ok, we had a few beers too. THEY MADE A VIDEO for a new exclusive song called "NICE HIT"watch the video here and check them out at http://smashmouth.bravehost.com/

OUR FIRST VIDEO FROM 1995. AWAY GAME off of our 1st cd 100% Hockey. Some clips used for this video were from our first ever performance at Madison Square Garden warming up a MONSTER TRUCK RALLY. we are all still a little queezy from the exhaust. Enjoy this MONSTER JAM from we Zambonis.
Our song Hockey Mom got some interesting press during the 2008 Presidential race. The Minnesota Post called the song a "great song with a great beat". Regardless of where you stand politically, hockey moms (and dads) ROCK!
GREAT ESPN Commercial featuring Duff from Ace Of Cakes and Zamboni song "Fight On The Ice". ALL THIS TO PROMOTE A HUGE HOCKEY FIGHTS CANCER SHOW WE ARE PLAYING IN BALTIMORE ON MAY 4th. The Hansons from SLAPSHOT will be there as well as a game between FLYERS AND CAPITALS ALUMNI.
If The Kinks, Beatles or Yardbirds wrote a hockey song in 1965, hopefully, it would've sounded like this. The Zambonis perform "Concussion" LIVE!
