Get those boat drinks and Hush Puppies ready, Parrotheads.

Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band are sailing back to the Northwest for a Seattle concert – just as summer starts. Seems perfect, doesn’t it?

“This performance marks Jimmy’s first summer concert in the Northwest in 20 years. What better way to to start the summer 2018 celebration?!” Live Nation Northwest President Jeff Trisler said in a news release.

Buffett is known for beachy and boozy hits like “Margaritaville,” “Come Monday,” “Cheeseburger in Paradise” and “A Pirate Looks at Forty.”

The “Son of a Son of a Sailor” 2018 tour hits KeyArena at 8 p.m. June 23. Tickets go on sale March 2 through Ticketmaster or by calling 800-745-3000. Tickets range from $36 to $146.
