PLEASE NOTE!
Due to the Palladium’s closure as a result of Hurricane Milton, we will reschedule this event or refund ticketholders next week.
A year ago, we learned the sad news that one of America’s most beloved performers, Jimmy Buffett, lost his fight against cancer. He left behind a devoted fan base, surfing and boating friends, business associates, and a legacy of charitable generosity.
He also left behind a remarkable band.
Join us for the largest gathering of Coral Reefer Band members and friends yet to come together in the Tampa Bay area for this Parrothead Celebration!
Coral Reefer vocalists Nadirah Shakoor and Tina Gullickson, who backed up Jimmy for three decades, will light up the Palladium mainstage. Pedal steel player Doyle Grisham, who first recorded with Buffett on “A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean” in the 70’s, continues be a signature element of the Coral Reefer Band sound.
Joining them is Roger Bartlett, nicknamed “Coral Reefer #001” as he was Buffett’s first road band member, added in Austin, Texas in 1973.
John Frinzi, lead vocalist and guitarist at many memorable Key West Meeting of the Minds gatherings, will also be performing. Adding to the lineup are Vinnie Seplesky of the Mad Beach Band on bass, Rich McDonald on drums, and Robin Swanson on keyboards.
This is a tribute to the music and spirit of Jimmy Buffett that you won’t want to miss.
