Barney Perrine grew up in Grays Harbor County and began performing professionally in 1977 with the original Desoto Rose. Barney frequently played gigs all over the Pacific Northwest in Aberdeen, Hoquiam, Ocean Shores, Pacific Beach and Montesano, traveling to Chehalis and Onalaska. Barney has sang and played guitar with bands/musicians such as KIDCO (with the late, great Wayne “Goose” Fleury as drummer); Donn Fleury as PF Flyer; Bruce Hughes as Perrine and Hughes. And before going solo, he paired up with John Myers as The Perrine Myers Band. A move to the Astoria, Oregon area in March 2007 will find Barney on stage performing the blues and classic rock as a single act.
