Live music is a vital part of life at The Barge - there's a gig of some kind on at least once a week, and on the nights where there's not an official gig you might just find a random bunch of people jamming away on the many musical instruments which are always lying around somewhere (and remember, there is never an entry charge... music is always free at The Barge).

Our first NYC show since June! We've been saving it up for our hoem town fans, and this very special evening with the glorious harmonies and musicianship of the Sweetback Sisters!
"The rollicking country swing of the Sweetback Sisters is as infectious as it is heartbreaking. Their charismatic charm harkens back to the golden era of both the silver screen cowgirl and the ersatz cowboy stars of local UHF TV kiddie shows. That whimsical exterior is wrapped around a core of deeply felt love for traditional country music styles and a palpable joy in playing and singing together. Like their pseudo-sister role models, the Davis Sisters, the Sweetback Sisters sing country songs in close, surrogate-sister harmony and matching dresses. Their repertoire combines several of the Sisters' passions -- country music from before they were born and new interpretations of those traditions -- to create a fresh take on what it means to be country."
The Sweetback line-up features the sugar sweet vocal pairing of Zara Bode and Emily Miller joined by an all-star cast of instrumentalists including: West Virginian triple threat Jesse Milnes; Stefan Amidon on drums; Philly's stringed slayer Ross Bellenoit on electric guitar, and Peter Bitenc on upright bass.
