I’ve planned enough events in my lifetime whether it’s corporate or for friends and family to know that you can never skip entertainment to have an amazing turn out. We had Tdot Batu at our wedding and let me tell you, they lit up our dance floor before reception even started.

TDot Batu is a tightly knit Afro–Brazilian samba reggae percussion ensemble or “batucada” inspired by the power and dedicated to the study of the rich rhythmic tradition borne out of the fusion of samba and reggae.
We study under the guidance of Mestre Patricio ‘Pato’ Irie who honed his skills and developed his musical stylings while living in and playing in the birthplace of samba reggae–Salvador, Bahia. In 1997 Pato moved to Chile, where he shared his knowledge of samba reggae for more than 10 years.
As an integral part of the Toronto Tropical music scene, we engage with diverse members of the arts and music community to create spectacular participatory celebrations that reflect the vast color and energy of Brazilian culture.
For our full band shows that include singers and melody, we require a stage, vocal microphones, instrument microphones, speakers, and stage monitors.
