Pato Banton (born Patrick Murray) is a reggae singer who was born in London in 1961 and moved to Birmingham when he was 8 years old. Pato?s stepfather (Lester Daley) was a DJ fresh from Jamaica, and the house in which they lived became the weekend night spot for the local community. In his early teens Pato started to gain his musical foundation on his stepfathers? sound system called V-Rocket, from helping set up the equipment at first to later selecting the music and trying his skills on the microphone. Patrick would stay up all night entertaining the masses and was given the name Patoo by his stepfather. (The name derives from a wise night owl in Jamaica, that stays up all night, calling ?patoo, patoo.?)
