Barbados (i/bɑːrˈbeɪdɒs/ or /bɑːrˈbeɪdoʊs/) is a sovereignisland country in the Lesser Antilles, in the Americas. It is 34 kilometres (21mi) in length and up to 23 kilometres (14mi) in width, covering an area of 432 square kilometres (167sqmi). It is situated in the western area of the North Atlantic and 100 kilometres (62mi) east of the Windward Islands and the Caribbean Sea; therein, it is about 168 kilometres (104mi) east of the islands of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and 400 kilometres (250mi) north-east of Trinidad and Tobago. Barbados is outside of the principal Atlantic hurricane belt. Its capital is Bridgetown.
Inhabited by Kalingo people since the 13th century, and prior to that by other Amerindians, Barbados was visited by Spanish navigators in the late 15th century and claimed for the Spanish Crown. It first appears on a Spanish map from 1511. The Portuguese visited the island in 1536, but they left it unclaimed, with their only remnants being an introduction of wild hogs for a good supply of meat whenever the island was visited. An English ship, the Olive Blossom, arrived in Barbados in 1625; its men took possession of it in the name of King James I. In 1627, the first permanent settlers arrived from England, and it became an English and later British colony.
"Barbados" was a UKNumber 1 single released in May 1975 by Typically Tropical. "Barbados" entered the UK Singles Chart at number 37 in late June 1975, and five weeks later was at Number 1 for a week. In total, "Barbados" spent eleven weeks on the chart. The track also reached Number 1 on the Irish Singles Chart, Number 1 on the South African Singles Chart, and 20 on the Australian Singles Chart (Kent Music Report). The track was later released on an album in 1975 by Gull Records. The album was named Barbados Sky.
Follow-up singles "Rocket Now" and "The Ghost Song" failed to chart, leaving "Typically Tropical" as one-hit wonders.
Barbados is a song by Australian band Models. It was the second single from their 1985 album Out of Mind, Out of Sight. The song was released in March 1985, and reached #2 on the Australian music charts.
The song is about Models bassist James Freud's alcoholism. The title of the first of Freud's autobiographical books I Am the Voice Left From Drinking is taken from lyrics in the song.

In the Know - Barbados National Art Gallery
The Barbados National Art Gallery has been a promise made to local artists for decades. It came one step closer to fruition when the Barbados National Art Gallery act was passed in 2009.
That provided the legal framework for the establishment of a National Art Gallery, which would look to develop and maintain a collection of works of art.
Block A at the Garrison has also been designated as the home of Barbadian art... but the gallery is yet to be created. The long wait has sparked protests led by artist Heather Dawn Scott.
We'll hear from her and get a response from the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Office with responsibility for Culture, Senator Dr. Shantal Munro-Knight.
We’ll also get the view of a young creative on what the next generation of Barbadian artists need.

Barbados, island country in the southeastern Caribbean Sea, situated about 100 miles east of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.

The capital and largest town is Bridgetown, which is also the main seaport.

Since 1966, it has been a constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy, modelled on the Westminster system, with Elizabeth II, Queen of Barbados, as head of state.
Prehistory
Some evidence suggests that Barbados may have been settled in the second millennium BC, but this is limited to fragments of conch lip adzes found in association with shells that have been radiocarbon-dated to about 1630 BC. Fully documented Amerindian settlement dates to between about 350 and 650 AD. The arrivals were a group known as the Saladoid-Barrancoid from the mainland of South America. The second wave of settlers appeared around the year 800 and a third in the mid-13th century . This last group was politically more organized and came to rule over the others.
Early history
The Portuguese were the first Europeans to discover the island. Portuguese navigator Pedro A. Campos named it Os Barbados .
