Kenny Chesney Remembers His Late Friend Jimmy Buffett With a Touching Story ...Saudi Arabia

In an interview with People ahead of the release of his new book Heart Life Music, the country star, 57, shared what he called his "favorite Jimmy story."

"And then you fast-forward, and it's surreal that you become friends with that person and collaborate with that person in the studio and have that person just really inspire you. And that's what Jimmy was for me," he continued. "You have people that create space for you to do your own thing, and Jimmy was one of those people."

Buffett died in September 2023 at the age of 76 from Merkel cell carcinoma. After meeting by the pool at a Four Seasons Hotel, the "Margaritaville" singer and Chesney struck up a friendship — and a musical partnership — that lasted decades.

"He was so childlike. And I always really appreciated him doing that because he didn't have to — I got to see a part of Key West through Jimmy's eyes. And we were really good friends after that day," Chesney writes in the book.

Chesney also performed at Buffett's posthumous Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2024, teaming up with McAnally and James Taylor to perform "Come Monday."

According to the publisher, Heart Life Music "shares the stories of a kid from small town East Tennessee with a dream fueled by the sports and music around him."

Heart Life Musicwill be published on Nov. 4 and is now available for preorder on Amazon.com or wherever books are sold.
