ABOUT THE CORAL REEFER BAND:
The Coral Reefer Band began their journey with Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Jimmy Buffett in 1973. While members have changed over the years, most of the band have performed with Jimmy for over 30 years. Together, they have toured the world with more than 40 tours and 30 albums. Not only are they the top-notch, highly regarded band with great solo careers of their own, but also collaborators, co-writing many songs with Jimmy, as well as Coral Reefers’ Mac McAnally and Michael Utley producing the majority of Buffett's vast discography. When Jimmy passed in September of 2023, he left an edict to “keep the party going” and that’s just what his band continues to do. The Coral Reefer Band is led by ten-time CMA Musician of the Year, Mac McAnally who says “We are blessed with the task of honoring and continuing the musical legacy that Jimmy built over 5 plus decades. We are so lucky both to have shared the stage with him and to share his music with all who love it.”
