Santana Artist Information
There are times when the stars align in just the right way and something, or in this case someone, of epic genius is created. This is the case when Carlos Santana first picked up a guitar.
Once Santana moved from Mexico and took up station in San Francisco, CA, he formed his own band, fusing rock and blues into his own stylistic creation and immediately established a rabid following. As his popularity rose the venues he played at increased in size, culminating in a legendary, incendiary performance at Woodstock in 1969.
Four decades later Santana continues to perform to amazed audiences, in awe of what this man can do with a guitar. Songs such as Oye Como Va, Black Magic Woman and of course, the smash hit single from 1999, Smooth, are staples of Santana's catalogue. He has created over thirty records in his career, won numerous Grammy Awards, including an incredible nine in one year for his work on the album Supernatural. He is a member of the prestigious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Following in the footsteps of artists such as Elton John, Bette Midler, Cher and Celine Dion, Santana prepares to establish the first "rock residency" in Las Vegas as he will call The Joint his home beginning in 2009. The show is called Supernatural Santana: A Trip Through The Hits, and Carlos Santana plans every show to be an evening of great music along with the "hippie" principle of living that to this day he still lives by. The combination promises to deliver a great experience!
