Beaches, boats, bars & tropical drinks with those little umbrellas. That is what you think of while watching and listening to "Garratt Wilkin & the Parrotheads" performing "A Celebration of Jimmy Buffett's Music".

Garratt Wilkin & The Parrotheads have headlined fairs and festivals throughout Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Idaho, Arizona, Utah, Nashville (Tennessee) and as far away as Anchorage (Alaska), Maui (Hawaii), as well as the Eastern seaboard and as close as his home town of Placerville, CA. Their popularity is expanding throughout North America.

Garratt and his band have been billed as the #1 Jimmy Buffett tribute band in the nation. Garratt says, "Traveling with 'The Parrotheads' is a great way to meet Jimmy Buffett fans and to make new 'Parrothead' friends. We get such a kick performing for fans that become just as much a part of the show as we are."

Since their initial transformation from Garratt Wilkin & The Whiskey Ducks to Garratt Wilkin & The Parrotheads, exclusively performing Jimmy Buffett music, the Parrotheads have performed as a six-piece "core" band and up to as large as a 13 piece band including Steel Drums, Horn Section, Harmonica and Pedal Steel Guitar. Garratt was quoted as saying, "Performing with the big band gives us the closest representation of the Coral Reefers and creates the look, feel and sound of being at a Jimmy Buffett concert."

WHAT'S NEW

Hey Parrotheads!

Thanks to everyone who came out to the Spotlight 29 Casino in Coachella, CA. It was great to see old friends and make some new ones. We would like to thank the stage and sound crews for their great set, sound and lighting and MKO Photography for the fabulous pictures. What a great venue!!!


This past season has been a rough one for us as we saw a couple of our good friends, Jay Spell and Holly Elder sail on. The Parrothead stage had 2 large holes this season, but their presence and music will live on in our hearts. As we wind down our 2011 season, we raise a glass of Parrothead Red to them and to you, our fans, for your continued support. Stay tuned to the Gumbo Gazette for breaking news and details ...

 

"They're closin' down the hangout, the air is turning cool.
They're shutting off the Super Slide, the kids are back in school.
That's when it always happens, same time every year.
I come down to talk to me, when the coast is clear."
 
Thanks Jimmy - it IS one hell of a summer job!
