Haven't played the game *yet*, but I did complete IWD (plus HoW & ToLM) and I found that a bard is quite useful to have in the party, as they can double up as secondary mages in addition to the useful bard songs they have. Much better than in BG/BG2 anyway, where the selections of songs are more limited.
Of course, IWD2 is based on 3E rules of D&D, so I'm not sure if this still holds true...
