Jimmy Buffett Obituary

Jimmy Buffett was an American singer, songwriter, musician, author and businessman. He was best known for his music, which often portrays an “Island escapism” lifestyle. Together with his Coral Reefer Band, Buffett recorded hit songs including Margaritaville and Come Monday.

Aside from his music career, he was also a bestselling author and was involved in two restaurant chains named after two of his best-known songs; he owned the Margaritaville Cafe restaurant chain and co-developed the now-defunct Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurant chain.

Buffett was one of the richest musicians, with a net worth of $1 billion as of 2023.

In 2012, a Margaritaville Online game was released by THQ for Facebook. The game was discontinued two years later. In 2016, it was announced that Buffett had partnered with FunPlus to develop a new Margaritaville game.
