Just as a reminder, the full list of musicians holding or wearing a hockey jersey can be found here, and the list just keeps getting more and more impressive with the additions being made. If you have photos of a musician wearing or holding a jersey, send them through to me and I'll get them posted with you getting credit! I'm always open to more submissions than less, so let's make this "Musicians in Jerseys" list as comprehensive as we can!
The New Jersey Devils have some younger artists wearing their gear who may appeal to a younger generation, and it seems that trend will continue as the Jonas Brothers were gifted a set of Devils jerseys while Joe Jonas was spotted wearing a Stadium Series jersey under his jacket! Drummer Max Weinberg is a longtime member of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band, and he was wearing the 2024 Stadium Series jersey as well! You may not know them, but The Gaslight Anthem is a rock band from New Brunswick, New Jersey, and they showed their devotion to the in-state NHL team as guitarist Alex Rosamilia donned the Devils' colours!
I know nothing about Detroit-born rapper WB Nutty other than his lyrics likely mean his album should have a warning label on it, but here he is in a New York Islanders jersey. Country musician Thomas Rhett seems pretty pumped to wear the Islanders' colours! I've never heard of Bobby Shmudra either, but the American rapper seems pretty excited about being at an Islanders game! I first thought Madison Beer was a social media influencer only to find out she's a platinum-selling artist, but she's also a New York Islanders fan! Maria Clifton seems to wear many hats as she's a former professional basketball player, a model, an actress, and an on-air personality, but she often spends evenings as DJ Ria where she spins records when she's not cheering on the Islanders in her jerseys!
The New York Rangers get a lot of artists wearing their gear as well as Madison Square Garden is the busiest venue in the world. Two of those people who were seen wearing NYR colours include RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan and, once again, Daniel Bjornson in his jersey collage photo.
Nicholas Durocher grew up in Ottawa, Ontario where the young man honed his skills, eventually becoming the artist known as Talk. The indie rocker is a huge fan of his hometown team as he wore his Daniel Alfredsson Ottawa Senators jersey in concert, and it appears the entire Senators team signed his jersey at some point as well! How cool is that?
We have a couple of entries in San Jose where Tara Sloan is doing some fine work for the Sharks. The Joydrop frontwoman was wearing the Sharks' alternate jersey in this photo! Joining Tara is the Daniel Bjornson jersey collage!
Country music strikes again as Chris Lane played a show in St. Louis where he wore the Blues' note! American rock band OAR - standing for Of A Revolution - has played shows all over the continent, but frontman Marc Roberge took to the stage wearing the Blues' colours while in St. Louis!
Tampa Bay even gets an appearance in this post thanks to Daniel Bjornson sporting the Lightning jersey in his jersey collage photo!
The Toronto Maple Leafs have a long list of musicians who have worn their threads, and we'll get one new artist today while another opted for a variation on the jersey. American country musician Morgan Wallen went with the Maple Leafs' blue when he was in town, and Snoop Dogg went for the variation on a jersey as he donned the Bieber-designed black Leafs jersey! This may have lowered Snoop Dogg's credibility as a hockey fan (I'm kidding!).
The Vancouver Canucks get a couple of new additions to their list. Charlton Kenneth Jeffrey Howard grew up in Waterloo, Australia before adopting the name The Kid Laroi where the rapper broke onto the music scene. His stop in Vancouver resulted in him receiving a personalized Canucks jersey! And, because he hasn't been mentioned in a paragraph, Daniel Bjornson is back with his jersey collage!
There's something about Canadian crooners and Las Vegas that goes hand-in-hand, it seems, as Celine Dion had a long stay in Vegas where she got a jersey, and we can now add Ottawa-born Paul Anka to the list after the Golden Knights gifted him a personalized jersey!
I had to jump into the time machine for this next image, but Jimmy Buffett has been on one of these lists. We can add a much younger Jimmy Buffett to a second time now as he appeared in Washington Capitals jersey in concert at some point in his career!
We get to the busiest section of the last two days as the Winnipeg Jets were spreading their logo around by handing out jerseys to everyone! American country singer Bailey Zimmerman got himself a 2022-23 Reverse Retro jersey. His touring partner on that concert circuit was Morgan Wallen who also came away with some Jets' home threads during a stop here. Noah Kahan visited the Jets for a game and a concert and ended up with a cap and a jersey. Hip hop Indigenous group Winnipeg's Most showed up to the Indigenous Music Awards wearing 1980s and 1990s Jets jerseys! I believe this is RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan in the Jets' RCAF Centennial jersey (thanks, Chris M.!). Punjabi musician Diljit Dosanjh already has a home Jets jersey, but the Jets went one step further in giving him a South Asian Heritage jersey! Daniel Greaves is the frontman for The Watchmen, and he's a huge Jets fan whether he's singing anthems at the games or watching while he's bartending at his bar, Motel, in Toronto! And because he needs to be mentioned again, Winnipeg-born Daniel Bjornson finally gets a place where he can show off his home jersey, his 2016 Heritage Classic jersey, his 2021 Reverse Retro jersey, his Aviator alternate jersey, and his 1990s Jets jersey with current road jersey hanging on the wall!
Ok, that's all the NHL teams I have in the folder of images of musicians wearing jerseys. That doesn't mean we're done, though, as we'll break into all the minor league and international jerseys tomorrow! Join me here for Day Three of the HBIC Music Festival as we wrap up this look at all the musicians who have hockey jerseys as well as closing the book on the long weekend!
Until next time, keep your sticks on the ice!
