Carlos
Santana, who first became famous in the late 1960s with his band Santana,
pioneered a fusion of rock and Latin American music. His first Top 10 hit ‘Evil
Ways’ stayed on the Billboard chart for two years and was soon followed by two
more classics and Billboard number one albums ‘Abraxas’ (“Oye Como Va”, “Black
Magic Woman”) and Santana III (“No One to Depend On”, “Everybody’s
Everything”). To date, Santana has won 10 Grammy Awards including a record
tying nine for a single project with 1999’s blockbuster Supernatural (“Smooth”,
“Maria, Maria”).
Among
many honors, Carlos Santana received Billboard Latin Music Awards 2009 Lifetime
Achievement honor as well as Billboards Century Award in 1996. Having sold over
100 million records to date Santana has been inducted into the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame and is listed in the top 20 greatest guitarists of all time by
Rolling Stone Magazine. In 2013, Carlos was the recipient of the 2013 Kennedy Center
Honors Award. Currently, Santana is headlining at a multi-year residency at
House of Blues at Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas.
From
Santana’s earliest days as a ground breaking Afro-Latin blues rock outfit to
the mega chart topping collaboration of ‘Supernatural’. The sound of Carlos
Santana is one of the world’s best known musical signatures.
