For more than five decades, Carlos Santana has been a pioneering force in music, fusing Afro-Latin, blues, rock, and jazz into a sound that transcends genre, culture, and generation.
A ten-time GRAMMY and three-time Latin GRAMMY winner, he made history with Supernatural in 1999, earning nine GRAMMYs in a single night—including Album and Record of the Year. He is a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, a Kennedy Center Honoree, and a recipient of Billboard’s Century and Latin Music Lifetime Achievement Awards. Rolling Stone ranks him #11 on its list of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.”
Santana will be performing in Cherokee, N.C., on Saturday, April 4 at 7:30 p.m. at Harrah’s Casino Event Center.
Santana has had a string of hits on the Latin charts as well as the U.S., including “Black Magic Woman”, “Oye Como Va”, “Evil Ways”, “Maria, Maria”, and “Smooth.”
Santana recently marked the 50th anniversary of his groundbreaking album “Abraxas” and his iconic Woodstock performance, as well as 25 years since the release of “Supernatural”. His latest album, “Sentient,” features collaborations with Michael Jackson, Smokey Robinson, Miles Davis, DMC, and Cindy Blackman Santana. The feature documentary “Carlos”, produced by Sony Music Entertainment and Imagine Documentaries, premiered at the 2023 Tribeca Film Festival and is now streaming globally.
For the past 14 years, Santana has held a Las Vegas residency at the House of Blues, which continues to thrill audiences with no end in sight.
Santana’s life was chronicled in the book Carlos Santana: Love, Devotion, Surrender, published by Insight Editions in 2025. The book is a visual journey through five decades of artistry, featuring rare photographs and personal archives.
