Jimmy Buffett, the legendary singer-songwriter, has died, according to a statement released on his social media and official website. He was 76.
"Jimmy passed away peacefully on the night of September 1st surrounded by his family, friends, music and dogs,” a statement posted to Buffett’s official website and social media pages said late Friday. “He lived his life like a song till the very last breath and will be missed beyond measure by so many.”
To commemorate Buffett's legacy, the Cubs posted a tribute to him on social media. Buffett was the first artist to ever play at Wrigley Field, hosting a concert there in 2005.
