Golden Knights Music Man Hits the Big Time

If you’ve been to the most popular show in town—or even if you’ve just watched it on television—you know that’s the introduction music to the Vegas Golden Knights hockey team. 

The man who cranks out the tunes at the start, middle and end of the games is Jake Wagner.  

Wagner is also a DJ on NV89, Nevada Public Radio’s new music station. 

 

And he has just received a rare honor among hockey arena musicologists.  

He’s been asked to spin the tunes during the NHL All-Star game in San Jose, California.
