MIRACULOUS SUPERNATURAL 2020 TOUR
DATES:

About Carlos Santana:

Coming off the celebration of two epic milestones in 2019 – the 20th
anniversary of his groundbreaking album Supernatural and the
50th anniversary of his legendary performance at Woodstock – Carlos Santana now
looks to 2020 and the celebration of the 50th anniversary of his
masterpiece Abraxas. To date, Santana has won ten Grammy Awards and
three Latin Grammys, with a record-tying nine Grammys for a single project for
1999’s Supernatural (including Album of the Year and Record of
the Year for “Smooth”). He has received the Billboard Century Award (1996), was
ushered into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1998), received the Billboard
Latin Music Awards’ Lifetime Achievement honor (2009), and was the recipient of
the Kennedy Center Honors Award (2013). Among many other distinctions, Carlos
Santana has been cited by Rolling Stone as #15 on their list
of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time;” and has joined the Rolling Stones
as one of only two bands to have an album reach the Top 10 in every decade
since the 1960s. In 2018, he released his first MasterClass. In it he teaches
the art, heart, and soul of guitar, reaching deep into the spirituality and
tonality of his playing to help students become more authentic and expressive
artists. In June of 2019, inspired by the sounds and rhythms of
Africa, Santana released the powerful, energy-infused full-length
album Africa Speaks, which NPR called his “best record in
decades”(NPR) and The New York Times ranked among “the
fiercest albums in Santana’s 50-year career.” Santana is currently headlining a
multi-year residency at House of Blues at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las
Vegas.
