Batala Philly is part of a larger Batala family, which is an international samba reggae music project based in Salvador de Bahia, in northeastern Brazil.
Batala was created in 1997 by Giba Gonçalves, a Bahian percussionist. Born and raised in Salvador, Bahia in Brazil, Giba was living in Paris when he first had the idea for the band, opened to anyone with an interest in learning the samba-reggae beat.
In Batala Philly we have a dynamic and passionate group of community musicians based in Philadelphia but performing all over the world. We are run entirely by volunteers and any proceeds from gigs go back into running the band to pay for things like costumes, drums and rehearsal space.
Christmas Village in Philadelphia is an outside holiday market in Center City Philadelphia, modeled after the traditional Christmas Markets in Germany.
