In 1992, A1A won a Jimmy Buffett sound-alike contest for Margaritaville Records and, three years later, Jeff Pike performed with Jimmy Buffett at Lakewood Amphitheater in Atlanta, Georgia. And now, the original and official Jimmy Buffett tribute—approved and endorsed by the man himself—are coming to Sydney. Members from the Jimmy Buffett band have all performed with A1A over the years, drawn by the band’s energy, musicianship, originality, excitement, and dedication to preserving Jimmy Buffet’s legacy. Don’t miss the first, foremost, and longest running Jimmy Buffett Tribute Show in history when they come to town. (Recommended for ages 18+.)
