A1A was formed by Jeff Pike in 1991. Jeff Pike and A1A went on to win a Margaritaville Records Jimmy Buffett Sound Alike Contest, sponsored by Jimmy. As the first band ever to showcase a high-energy concert composed of nothing except Buffett's best songs spanning every era of his career, A1A became the only Tribute Band personally sanctioned by Jimmy Buffett. While countless other bands have followed in A1A's wake and cited them as their main inspiration, A1A remains the first and foremost Jimmy Buffett Tribute Show and their place in Parrot Head history is high and unmistakable.
