8:57 AM PT<\/strong> — Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ … Jimmy<\/strong> was diagnosed with skin cancer 4 years ago that turned into lymphoma, and we’re told that was the cause of death. As one close friend put it, “He lived his life in the sun, literally and figuratively.” Jimmy began receiving hospice care last Monday and there was an outpouring of love from friends and family. We’re told a week ago Sir Paul McCartney<\/strong> came to Jimmy’s house and sang to Jimmy’s family.<\/p>\n

Pour out a margarita for Jimmy Buffett,<\/strong> the legendary musician is dead.<\/p>\n

The “Margaritaville” singer died Saturday surrounded by his friends, family, music and dogs, according to an announcement posted on his website.<\/p>\n

The statement read … “He lived his life like a song till the very last breath and will be missed beyond measure by so many.”<\/p>\n

We’re told Jimmy had been sick for a while, and he was recently receiving hospice care.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As we reported … Jimmy was forced to cancel<\/strong> a May show in South Carolina after being hospitalized at the last minute for an issue requiring “immediate attention.”<\/p>\n

The idol of all parrot heads everywhere, Jimmy was also forced to cancel a ton of gigs in 2022 because of health issues and a different hospital stay. He played Jazz Fest in New Orleans in May 2022 but had not been on stage a lot since.<\/p>\n

In addition to “Margaritaville,” Jimmy’s been cranking out hits since the 1970s with classic tunes like “Come Monday,” “Cheeseburger in Paradise,” “Volcano,” “A Pirate Looks at Forty,” “Fins,” “Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes” and “Why Don’t We Get Drunk” … just to name a few.<\/p>\n

JB also collaborated with Alan Jackson<\/strong> for another huge hit folks love listening to when they pour a drink … “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere.”<\/p>\n

Jimmy’s brand reached way beyond music and his huge concert following … he was also the face of the hotel and restaurant chain Margaritaville, and he even turned the experience into a cruise line<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Jimmy was 76.<\/p>\n

RIP<\/p>\n
