It's a bar with a doorman that checks ID
Place gets really crowded and tight, it'll be hard to see the band for a tiny person and it does get loud in there as the space is small. Also, the professional bands don't start until past 10pm. Wally's is amazing and not to be missed but I'd suggest Beat Hotel (Beat Brasserie) in Harvard Square for your specific objective.
