Born Dec 25, 1946

Biography:
Jimmy Buffett has
been one of the
nations top touring
acts for three
decades.
He never charted a
No. 1 single or won
a major award until
he teamed up with
Alan Jackson
for the hit
It's Five
O'Clock Somewhere

collaboration won
vocal event of the
year honors at the
2003 CMA Music
Awards.
Buffett studied
journalism at the
University Of
Southern
Mississippi. Working
as the Nashville
correspondent for
Billboard magazine,
he built up contacts
that led to his 1970
debut for Barnaby
Records, but the
album and it's follow
up were not well
produced. Buffett
settled in Key West
Florida, and
although initially
involved in
smuggling, he
changed his ways
and went to
Nashville to record.
In 1975,
Buffett formed the
Coral Reefer Band
while recording
Havana
Daydreaming.
His songs continue
to reflect the Key
West lifestyle.
Jimmy Buffett
remains a major
concert attraction,
especially in Florida.
He addresses his
fans as
"
Parrotheads".
At the 2003 CMA
Awards in Nashville,
Buffett and
Alan Jackson
opened the show
with
It's Five O'Clock
Somewhere
.
After winning the
vocal award later
that night, Buffett
noted,
"It was about 31
years ago when I
came to this town to
pursue my musical
madness, and I've
never won anything
for anything, and it's
great to do it here.
