Martin Beginning in high school, Barney discovered his love for music and
theater. After acquiring a BA in theater performance, he toured the British Isles,
central France and played stages from New England to Colorado, the Bahamas, to
Boston. Since the mid 70s, he's been involved professionally as a singer/songwriter/entertainer
as well as acting in theater and "on camera". He's been a part of several duos/trios,
has opened for Livingston Taylor in concert, and performed on stage with David
Wilcox. Barney has one CD to his credit. Today, he leads a heritage rock trio
named "Coos Canyon" (named after his favorite boyhood swimming hole in western
Maine). "On camera", Barney has been in numerous Maine commercials - Megabucks,
Handyman Tools, Next Gen, AAA and Hannaford to name a few. His first feature role
on the big screen was in "Liberty, Maine" starring Eric Close. His national TV
credit was a role in Fox’s "Murder in Small Town X" 2001 - one of the first reality
shows on TV shot in Eastport, Maine. Since 2005 with Cameron Bonsey, Barney
has dedicated significant time advocating a sustainable film industry for Maine.
"Maine needs to advance its embrace of economic development in the digital
revolution to survive into the future - the film industry is a solid option for
our state", says Martin. He has high hopes the legislature will give Maine
its competitive edge in this industry in 2009. Lastly and most importantly,
Barney is the father of four outstanding children with his wife Lauren. He lives
in Scarborough. His stepmother Terry told him many times throughout his life that
"...by not doing comedy, you are missing your calling…". By jeez he’s justah late
