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!

The show up at the Skagit Valley Casino in Bow, WA was phenomenal! The Skagit Valley Casino rolled out the red carpet for The Parrotheads and it was great to see everyone up there dancing in their fins and flip flops for the completely sold out event! It was a great party and we're hoping for a repeat performance next year! Thank you to The Skagit Valley Casino, all the fans there and those who traveled from Canada for your hospitality and great time!
 
Sunday, May 13th is the 7th Annual "Parrothead Mother's Day Show" at the Camino Wine Plaza (Findleton Winery) in Camino, CA. Don't forget to bring your Mom (or someone else's Mom) and wear your best Parrothead shirts. Come on out, get some sun on your beaks and start the summer with the 2012 Vintage Parrothead Red wine, which is a non-conventional blend of Mourvedre and Syrah. Cross your wings for a medal win on this one! Showtime is 3:00 to 7:00 pm. Please remember that it is OK to bring your own snacks and bird seed (for those who of you won't be bringing your own bird seed, there will be Cheeseburgers in Paradise available for purchase) but no outside alcohol is allowed. A glass of wine and a cheeseburger ... what more could Mom want?
 
Friday, June 1st, it's off to Minden, NV for the Concert in the Park Series this will be in Downtown Minden at the Gazebo in the park and is free to the public. The performance time is 6:30pm to 8:30pm so dress in your best Parrothead garb and see you there!
