Margarita Mafia's "2008 Band of the Year"

They started as a five-piece, Jimmy Buffett tribute act five years ago. They still play plenty of Buffett, but are now a member of the Trop-Rock genre (bands that fans of Jimmy Buffett like to listen to) via their original music. Their first album, titled "This Ain't Duval Street," sold over 2,500 copies and is still available on their website. Their second album has been released on Little Feat's Hot Tomato Records label. Both albums are receiving airplay on Sirius satellite radio's Radio Margaritaville, and various local radio stations throughout the U.S. They are now a seven-piece band, sometimes adding an extra musician or two. They have opened for Jimmy and played with several members of his band. They tour throughout the Mid-West, with some national trips scattered in each year.

Band members include:

Howie Golub
harmonica

Jake Tatar
guitar

Aaron Walk
bass

Larry Lister
drums

Andy Gaines
keyboards

Dyke Corson
steel guitar

Michael Farveau
saxophone
