Barb's - View this location on map It's in Park Slope and has a suspiciously foreign name, so you know there's something intentionally cultural going on inside. As it turns out, Barb's)s has a regular lineup of jazz and experimental musicians (and a Monday-night film society) that includes some of Brooklyn's top acts in a performance space smaller than a studio apartment. Tending towards folk-oriented styles, accordions, and world music, Barb's also hosts the raucous, gypsy funk band Slavic Soul Party! each and every Tuesday evening. All performances are free, though $10 contributions are usually requested. (718) 965-9177 376 9th St , New York, NY Nightlife
