Pope-A-Palooza

10-time CMA Musician of the Year Mac McAnally will be the headliner at this “Tunes for Tuition” music festival benefiting Boca Raton’s Saint John Paul II Academy’s Alumni Scholarship Fund. McAnally is a renowned singer, songwriter and instrumentalist who has written dozens of hit records for other artists, several of which peaked at #1. Parrotheads know McAnally as the guitarist/backup singer in Jimmy Buffett’s Coral Reefer Band and as contributing songwriter on Buffett tunes like “It’s My Job” and “Coast of Carolina.” Since 1997 McAnally produced Buffett’s albums with his fellow Coral Reefer Band mate Michael Utley, including Buffett’s final studio album “Equal Strain”. 

Also performing are The Resolvers, whose “Big Band Reggae” combines classic Jamaican roots and lively New Orleans stylings; Wolfhawk, a high energy rock band; and The Associates, playing an eclectic mix of music ranging from rock to country to heavy metal.
