Jimmy Buffett, known for his beach bum soft rock music, has died. He was 76.
“Jimmy passed away peacefully on the night of September 1st surrounded by his family, friends, music and dogs,” read a statement posted to the singer’s social media pages late Friday. “He lived his life like a song till the very last breath and will be missed beyond measure by so many.”
The statement did not say where Buffett died or give a cause of death.
Buffett released “Margaritaville” on Feb. 14, 1977, and the song quickly became a cultural phenomena, encouraging fans to live a low-key lifestyle of “growing older, but not up.”
The song was off his album Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes and spent 22 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and peaked at No. 8. It was inducted into the GRAMMY Hall of Fame in 2016 for its cultural and historic significance.
Buffett, born James William Buffett, was born on Christmas day 1946 in Pascagoula, Mississippi. He is survived by his wife, Jane, his daughters, Savannah and Sarah, and son, Cameron.
