Music icon Santana will tour US in August

LAS VEGAS, NV – Hot on the heels of his successful Europe tour, ten time GRAMMY-Award and three time Latin GRAMMY®-Award winning rock icon and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Carlos Santana and his band SANTANA will kick off the U.S. summer dates for The Corazón Tour on August 14 at Forest Hills Stadium in Forest Hills, NY. The tour will visit U.S. cities in New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, Virginia, Maryland, Michigan and Illinois.

Joining Santana on this tour is special guest and son Salvador Santana. Salvador has opened for his father many times in the past, but this marks the first time ever that Salvador will be joining Carlos and the Santana Band in musical collaboration and will be a featured performer.

The tour follows the launch of Carlos Santana’s memoir “The Universal Tone: Bringing My Story to Light” which Oprah and NPR included in their Best Books of 2014 lists, and the continuation of his House of Blues Las Vegas at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino multi-year residency of An Intimate Evening with Santana: Greatest Hits Live.

Corazón is Santana’s first-ever Latin album (RCA/Sony Latin Iberia) featuring superstar collaborative performances by Latin Music’s finest. The album is certified U.S. Latin Double Platinum and was the top selling Latin Music album in the United States for six consecutive weeks.
