An island famous to generations of Tampa Bay boaters now has its own song. Twenty-two-year-old singer and songwriter Matt Billor wrote "Beer Can Island," named for the 11-acre island that now boasts a floating tiki bar. 

The island, officially called Pine Key, was bought by a group of private investors. 

Billor says he was inspired by his many trips to the island with family and friends.  

"It kind of just started coming to me from my many years of coming to this island before," said Billor. "Everybody always has a blast on this island." 

There's also a music video shot over several days on the island. 

The song is available on iTunes, Google Play, and Amazon. You can watch the music video on YouTube or below:
