The Puget
Sound
is the brain child of John Dryer & Rick Hines who, together, were
stockpiling
original material & needed an outlet. Inspired by other local bands
(namely: The Visible Targets) they
recorded
at the then fairly new Triad Studios & produced a minor local hit
"Planet
X" which was eventually used as the lead off song on the "KYYX Local
Heroes/New
Faces" cassette & got massive air play. They continued
playing/recording
throughout the 80's gaining air play & a minor cult following.
Unexpectedly,
they called it quits in the early 90's for reasons unknown to this
writer
to this very day. There was a brief reunion at the Maple Valley
"MorningWood
Stock". Currently, John & Rick are working on completing what
they started/left off by recording the rest of their catalog.
