Santana is the legendary Latin rock band led by Mexican-born guitarist Carlos Santana, known for blending rock, blues, jazz, and Afro-Cuban rhythms into a sound that feels instantly recognizable
Formed in San Francisco in the 1960s, Santana helped bring Latin percussion and Spanish-language influences into mainstream rock with classics like “Oye Como Va” and “Black Magic Woman.” Their 1999 album Supernatural introduced the band to a new generation with global hits like “Smooth” and “Maria Maria,” proving that Santana’s warm guitar tone and Latin groove never go out of style.
