Jimmy Buffett [ tickets ]'s fans, known as Parrotheads, can bust out their Hawaiian shirts; their favorite singer-songwriter is gearing up for his latest U.S. road trip.

Buffett has scheduled five shows so far, beginning with an April 22 stop in Tampa, FL, and followed by dates in Charlotte and Raleigh, NC; Columbia, SC; and Ft. Lauderdale. Details appear in the itinerary below.

Tickets for all five stops hit the box office on Saturday (2/28), according to Buffett's website. More shows are expected.

Prior to launching the tour, Buffett is expected to issue a new album titled "Licensed to Chill"; a specific release-date has not been announced. The album's title track, a duet featuring Buffett and country singer Kenny Chesney, is available on a CD-ROM included with Sports Illustrated's latest annual swimsuit issue.

Buffett's duet with Chesney follows his pairing with country singer Alan Jackson on the Grammy-nominated track "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere," which appears on Jackson's "Greatest Hits 2."

Last month, Buffett issued recordings of his 2003 shows in Boston and Cincinnati. A "Live in Hawaii" CD set will follow, according to Mailboat Records' website.

The Buffett DVD "MiniMatinee 1" was released in November. It features six performances from his 2002 tour, including a duet with Jackson of "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere."
