Music icon Carlos Santana has been entertaining audiences for over 50 years; as a result, 2019 marks a number of anniversaries for the rocker.
One of the performers at the original Woodstock in 1969, Santana will return to the spot for the Festival’s 50th anniversary in Bethel Woods, New York August 16-18. Original Woodstock promoter Michael Lang is also putting together a celebration but opted to join the event sponsored by Live Nation where Santana will serve as the house band.
Santana spoke to “Rolling Stone” magazine about the event saying, “I’m going to invite whoever is still here, whether it’s Joan Baez or members from Sly Stone, and I’m going to play Santana music. Santana’s going to be the house band, but I want to be able to honor those who are still here and maybe invite rappers like Common or Kendrick Lamar.”
It has been 20 years since the record setting Grammy Award winning album “Supernatural” was released and in celebration of that event, Santana will be joining forces with the Doobie Brothers for a tour.
