“It’s a great journey for us to come to Las Vegas and bring our music – which is composed of light and love, and good vibrations – and share it with the people that hopefully will come from all over the world to see us,” said Carlos Santana.
In May 2009, Santana showcased his unparalleled talent when he launched Vegas’ first rock resident show to rave reviews. The Los Angeles Times said that Supernatural Santana: A Trip Through The Hits “proves what an unusual rock icon [Carlos Santana] is” and highlighted the “deeply energetic” performances of his long-time band members, which routinely has audience members dancing in the aisles.
Supernatural Santana: A Trip Through the Hits features the band’s career-spanning classics such as “Oye Como Va,” “Black Magic Woman,” “Evil Ways,” and “Smooth” in a show exclusively designed for The Joint. Illustrating the band’s free-flowing musicality, Supernatural Santana: A Trip Through the Hits takes fans on a multi-sensory journey of their favorite Santana songs and much more. Each show is a unique take on the band’s repertoire, creating a one-of-a-kind performance for show-goers.
