Viva Carlos!

"A Supernatural Marathon Celebration"

The Story
Viva Carlos! "A Supernatural Marathon Celebration" brings together incredible and influential guitarists Eric Johnson, Robben Ford, Eric Gales, Frank Gambale, Albert Lee, Pat Martino, Vinnie Moore, Mike Stern, Coco Montoya and Jeff Richman, each paying tribute to rock guitar icon Carlos Santana, a pioneer of Latin-influenced rock music. A gifted composer and powerful band leader, Carlos Santana has created a phenomenal catalog of memorable compositions in the genres of rock, jazz/rock and Latin music. These ten incredible guitarists have come together to lift up their guitars as their voices in celebration of some of the most important music in rock history. If that wasn't enough, additional musicians making up the band include Abe Laboriel on bass, Dave Weckl on drums, Luis Conte on percussion and vocals, and Peter Wolf on organ.
