Katherine Perkins writes songs and paints in Maine. Her music and artwork explore light and color, the ocean and the human heart. As the leader of the Brooklyn based band Rose Hips & Ships, she released The Seafarer, in 2013, and The Colors Now, in 2020. Her new record, Being Younger, was released on Twelve | Eight Records in June, 2024. In November, 2024, she was featured in Downeast Magazine's 4 Maine Music Artists to Watch by Victoria Wasylak.

For her concert at Barncert, she will be a part of a five piece band with bass, drums, guitar, alto sax and wurlitzer/vocals. Their music is reminiscent of early Bonnie Raitt, Lucinda Williams, and Tom Waits in his smoky barroom years. In a piece in Downeast, Victoria Wasylak called our most recent record, "Being Younger", (Twelve | Eight Records; 2024) "a trove of genre-defying ballads about friendship, devotion, and the passage of time."
