Rafael Barata
Born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Rafael Barata started playing drums at age of 5. His whole childhood was surrounded by music. The Samba and especially the Bossa Nova were his playground, always having fun with his dad Roberto Mendes and his brother Roberto Barata both musicians. This great culture genuine from RJ, Brazil, made his drumming a reference around the world. He started his studio career at the age of 14. He has won two International Brazilian Drums contests: 1st Batuka - At the age of 15, and the Batuka Masters 2000 at the age of 20. In the same time, he started to play with greatest Samba Jazz legends from 60’s that introduced to him the Jazz world. This experience enhanced his jazz approach so much and years later he went to NY, where he started to play with the Jazz masters.
