Jimmy Buffett (born in Mississippi, but raised in Alabama) has concocted a hybrid of singer-songwriter, comedian, romantic individualist, eccentric and drunkard. He has dedicated his career to the sea. Buffett began his career in Nashville, as one of the many country music singers in search of glory. His early albums Down To Earth (Barnaby, 1970) and High Cumberland Jubilee (Barnaby, 1971), later compiled as Before The Beach (MCA, 1993), are as original as a hamburger.

James William Buffett was born on December 25, 1946 in Pascagoula, MS. Jimmy's father's name is James Delaney Buffett, Jr. and his mother's last name is Peets. Jimmy grew up in Mobile, AL where he attended McGill-Toolen (Catholic school) and attended Auburn University before receiving a B.S. in history from the University of Southern Mississippi in 1969. Jimmy was a brother of Kappa Sigma fraternity. Before signing a recording contract in 1970 with Barnaby Records, Jimmy lived in Nashville and worked writing articles for Billboard. Around this same time, he appeared in a cover band The Now Generation. Buffett is credited on two of their albums: Come Together and Hits Are Our Business. Jimmy married his second wife, Jane Slagsvol from Columbia, South Carolina, on August 27, 1977. They were later separated for 9 years, but have since reunited. Jimmy has one son (Cameron) and two daughters (Savannah Jane and Sarah Delaney). Jimmy currently resides in Palm Beach, FL where his daughters attend school. He also has residences in several other locations including Key West and Long Island. He maintains an apartment in New Orleans and owns a farm/ranch near Orlando. Jimmy is chairman of the Save the Manatee club. For more information: Save the Manatee 500 N. Maitland Ave. Maitland, FL 32751 1-800-432-JOIN or www.savethemanatee.org -- And Jimmy was a founder of Friends of Florida, an enviromental group which focused on the problem of preserving the Florida ecostructure. Jimmy Buffett has recorded over thirty albums, including the two hit singles Margaritaville and Come Monday. He is also the author of three bestselling books -- Tales from Margaritaville, Where is Joe Merchant? and A Pirate Looks at Fifty. Jimmy is one of only three authors to ever have a number one best-seller on the fiction list and non-fiction list. He plays to sold-out stadiums across America every summer and his "Parrothead" followers are known to be among the most devoted fans in the music industry. Buffett has also collaborated with Herman Wouk on a musical Don't Stop the Carnival. He resides in Florida, summers on Long Island, and has managed to keep the same summer job for 34 years.
