Many of our fans travel far and wide to follow our journey and enjoy our sensational  shows. In return, we create wonderful  memories of a unique Santana Experience for both our audience and ourselves.

This live experience spans the entire musical Carlos Santana legacy, including the EARLY ERA songs from the Abraxas album such as Black Magic Woman, Oye Como Va, Samba Pa Ti through the LATE 70s hits such as Europa, She's not there to the MODERN ERA multi Grammy Awarded songs such as Smooth and Maria-Maria…

Very Santana recreate the guitar master and his band's live experience, with all the authenticity and uniqueness that made Carlos Santana a living legend musician and composer. The band recreate the Santana style with proper live latin-rock, creating a very improvisational music experience by making shows as authentic as possible.

All band members are big Santana fans but Rolly (guitarist) in particular, has always had an ambition to perform a complete Santana show. His immense knowledge of Santana, coupled with the passion of a genuine fan meant this new band had a solid foundation from which they could develop.

The all analog, valve driven guitar sound (PRS guitars + Mesa Boogie Mark I Carlos Santana Signature amp) , the drums, bass, Hammond organ and the loads of percussions give you a very unique music experience! The icing on the cake is our singer Amera's vocals and dance moves…don't miss our show, book your tickets as soon as possible.
