Once more Bat Makumba
I saw them this last Saturday at Elbo Room.
Once again I was so happy and excited about them.
This is the 2 time I am telling you about those South American boys. www.batmakumba.com - Junior , posted 04/21/05

Bay area meets Brazilian raw energy
I have seen a number of their shows in California and am always amazed by the diversity of people who can appreciate their music and energy. The CD captures it well but, do yourself a favor and see Bat Makumba live! - Derick , posted 11/26/04

Breaks all the rules
I was stunned by their music. Originality, amazing energy with a wonderful vibe.
I know little about Brazilian music, but what they do is not only Brazilian it is a world unto itself.
A musical miscegenation! - Andrew , posted 11/25/04

Great Live Band!
Saw them on Halloween and it was an excellent show-great energy and wonderful music-fusion of Brazilian, funk and rock. I highly recommend buying their cd-full of great original songs. Check them out! - Holly , posted 11/25/04

A great night out
Fun, interesting, thought-provoking music. Even if you don't think you are interested in Brazilian music (not normally something I seek out), a great show with a great vibe. - David , posted 10/17/04

Fun and Funky Brazilian Band
Bat Makumba is a must-see if you have an interest in Brazilian music and culture or just like fun, funky music with a nice drumbeat. These guys are talented musicians and get the audience dancing with funky remakes of old standards and their own original songs as well. - Kim , posted 10/14/04
