South Florida, the wait is over. Jimmy Buffett with Coral Reefer Friends will perform at Old School Square in Delray Beach for four nights in May – Thursday, May 13, Friday, May 14, Monday, May 17, and Tuesday, May 18 – all at 8 pm. Parrot Heads near and far won’t want to miss their chance to soak in an intimate Jimmy Buffett experience.
“We are honored to host a music icon as beloved as Jimmy Buffett, whose songs also perfectly depict the island vibe lifestyle we offer here in Delray,” said Old School Square chief operating officer Holland Ryan. “We’re incredibly humbled that Jimmy and his team selected our safe, secure, open-air venue to bring back his live performances, and we look forward to these special nights with Jimmy’s classics and best-known gems under the stars”.
Jimmy recently released an album, “Song’s You Don’t Know By Heart,” which Parrot Heads had a hand in, after the question posted on social media, “What little-known Jimmy Buffett songs would you like him to revisit?” prompted tens of thousands of replies. Once the votes were tallied, Jimmy and his daughter and filmmaker, Delaney Buffett, began shooting a new video of the top-mentioned songs every week for his website. There are currently over four million views for the series and the acoustic album, “Songs You Don’t Know By Heart”, is a curation of fans’ top responses.
This release comes on the heel of his very successful record (#2 debut), “Life On The Flip Side,” his first studio album in seven years. Not being on tour has resulted in a very prolific time for Jimmy.
Also in 2020, Jimmy was inducted into the Mississippi Songwriters Hall Of Fame. “It’s a long way from The Pascagoula Run, and my early days growing up in Mississippi certainly had an impact on the way I wrote songs and what I wrote about,” said Jimmy. “So, thank you Mississippi for that.”
