'''Barbara''' ({{ja|バーバラ|Bābara}}, ''Barbara''), whose full name is '''Barbara the Bat''', is the mascot of the {{uv|Jam with the Band}} series.


'''Barbara''' (バーバラ　bābara) is the mascot of the Japan-only release ''Daigasso! Band Brothers'' (''Jam with the Band'' was its slated North American name) for the [[Nintendo DS]]. The manager of the music store, GB Music, in Waruwaru Town, she is an avid guitar player. She guides the player throughout the game and possesses a rather arrogant personality. She also appears in the Nintendo DS game ''Master of Illusion''. When Barbara appears, she plays her guitar for a few seconds, sending out musical shockwaves that damage the summoner's opponents and cause reasonable [[knockback]]. This works in a similar fashion to [[Donkey Kong (SSBB)|Donkey Kong]]'s [[Konga Beat]].
