The return of Jimmy B’s Beach Bar was one of the most highly anticipated openings of the year on the beaches, and the beloved local hotspot is celebrating the area’s rebound from the 2024 hurricanes in grand fashion. Jimmy B’s announced the launch of the Local Legends Music Series, which will bring marquee local acts to the beachfront bar on the final Sunday of every month.

The first show takes place on Sunday, March 29, as Jimmy B’s welcomes Twinkle and Rock Soul Radio, one of the most popular bands on beaches up and down the Gulf Coast. The show starts at 4:30 pm, taking guests straight into sunset. The performance is free to attend.

The ethos behind the Local Legends Music Series is to not only showcase the sand and surf, but also to celebrate the soul of the beaches. It’s a tribute to the musicians who have been the soundtrack of our community for decades. Each month will showcase musicians and bands who helped shape the place that so many across the world love today.

“These are the performers who built the vibe, filled dance floors, and kept the good times rolling,” Jimmy B’s explained. “The series was created to do more than entertain. It’s about preserving the culture that makes our beach unique.”

In a destination that attracts people from all over, Jimmy B’s has always been a hub for the community. As they so perfectly put it, this series is “a reminder that the heart of the beach beats strongest when local artists take the stage.”

The first three dates are already booked, taking place on Sundays March 29, April 26, and May 31, with the next three being announced soon. Each month, Jimmy B’s will have a specialty cocktail for that one night, available at “retro” prices to complete the throwback vibes. To make things even more fun, they created a Local Legends Passport for those ready to see it all. Pick one up during your visit and collect a stamp at every show.  After four stamped visits, your fifth visit earns you one of their “Rock On” specialty drinks. Earn ten stamps, and you’ll score exclusive Jimmy B’s merch! That’s our kinda deal.

Not that we needed an excuse to visit Jimmy B’s this spring and summer, but the Local Legends Music Series makes it a must. Jimmy B’s lifers will appreciate the throwback celebrations, and for first-timers, it’s the perfect introduction to what makes the bar, and the beaches, so special. If you’re already planning your music calendar, you won’t want to miss one of your favorite beach bars going country ahead of Country Thunder Florida. It’s just one more reason Jimmy B’s will be the place to be all season long.
