Barquin D'an

Barquin D'an was a Bith who worked as a professional musician and was the younger brother of fellow musician Figrin D'an. After visiting the palace of the crime lord Jabba Desilijic Tiure, Barquin ended up playing kloo horn in the Max Rebo Band, house band for Jabba. In 3 ABY, the band performed for the crime lord aboard his sail barge, Khetanna.

In 4 ABY, Barquin and the band performed for Jabba and his court in the palace's throne room. While they played Jedi Rocks, Jabba interupted the music by dropping the enslaved dancer Oola into a pit below the throne room, where she was eaten by the rancor Pateesa. Barquin was then still present in the throne room when Princess Leia Organa arrived disguised as the bounty hunter Boushh in order to present the Wookiee Chewbacca to Jabba. The next day, Organa and her allies killed Jabba, and a delighted Barquin fled to Mos Eisley spaceport
