Parrotbeach to Play Jimmy Buffett and Island Music in Forest Hills on Wednesday

There will be no swaying palm trees or tiki bars stocked with fruity rum drinks, but attendees will definitely see their fair share of multi-colored Hawaiian shirts and maybe even a few straw hats. On Wednesday, Parrotbeach, arguably the world’s best Jimmy Buffet tribute band, will give a free concert in Forest Hills. Part of an annual series sponsored by Maspeth Federal Savings, this New Jersey-based group will play timeless classics such as “Cheeseburger in Paradise,” “Margaritaville” and “Tin Cup Chalice,” while the crowd gets nostalgic about past beach vacations. Concert-goers can also expect to hear other “island music” favorites, such as Harry Belafonte’s “Jamaica Farewell.”

Details: Jimmy Buffet Tribute Band Parrotbeach, Maspeth Federal Saving Bank Parking Lot, 101-09 Metropolitan Avenue, Forest Hills, July 24, 7:30 pm, free but first come, first seated.
