The band consists of Nick Pistoia (guitar/vocals), Jesse Mathewson (bass), and Darien McKinney (drums). Nick and Darien met via facebook and realized they had similar tastes in bands such as Black Flag and The Descendents. They soon decided to start a band. After a few songs were written and they were ready to play, they realized they needed a bassist. After a few auditions, they came across Jesse Mathewson, and The Zapatistas were formed. The Zapatistas are one of the few youth oriented rock bands in Amador County, California. along with Blind Pig and Mercenary for Hire (also known as 'Marshmellows').
