Brian Neale and Northern Harbour are Canada's ultimate Jimmy Buffett tribute band, and perform an authentic concert show that Parrot Heads all over North America have come to love! Formerly known as Margaritaville Express, this Toronto based band has crafted an amazing re-creation of the Head Parrot's musical Gulf Coast journey, which is now in its 4th decade. All delivered in the fun-loving style that has made Jimmy Buffett one of the top grossing touring acts in North America. Canada's favorite trop-rock party is still going strong too, with a continually evolving live show that delivers all the energy, colour, fun, and especially the sound of Jimmy in concert! Drawing from a truly massive catalog of honed Buffett songs (& more), the band has been bringing the islands North since 2003. And they're just getting warmed up (takes longer in Canada, eh)! They have headlined many top-tier festival bills in the U.S. and Canada, and have performed private shows from Anchorage to Tortola! Fronted by founder & guitarist/vocalist Brian Neale, who has been performing Buffett material (often to gaping stares of disbelief!) for over 20 years, Northern Harbour also features some of the most experienced & talented pro players in Southern Ontario (see BIOS page). Music Director Ian Kojima (Chris De Burgh, Stampeders, etc.) brings his vast experience to bear in leading the band to awesome heights! The result is what many say is the tightest Buffett tribute show band in the world! The band's show, and Buffett's songs, are nothing but good fun - but it's also about great music - and those are the two elements the band delivers first & foremost. The show is never tacky, and the band does not simply ape Jimmy & the Reefers. Instead, this band has made it's rep based on top-notch live performances, that have distinguished them from other Buffett tributes. Please take a moment to drop the band a line from the CONTACT page if you caught a show, or just want to say howdy – we love to hear from Parrot Heads everywhere! Or sign up for our newsletter. Special thanks to all the friends & fans who continue to make every gig a party to be remembered! You pholks sure know how to celebrate down-island style. After all, the weather is always here... Just watch out for those land sharks!
