Santa Rios brings the electrifying Latin fusion of Carlos Santana to life! This powerful, nine-piece ensemble pays homage to Santana’s iconic music, blending Afro-Cuban rhythms with Blues and Rock to get everyone dancing. Santa Rios captivates its audiences from their first note, authentically recreating tunes from Santana’s 5+ decade career.
The band’s amazing live performances showcase their musicianship and dedication to honoring Santana’s legendary legacy.
From the psychedelic jams of San Francisco and Woodstock in the ‘60s to the timeless hits from the Supernatural album and beyond, Santa Rios covers Santana’s extensive catalog with passion and precision.
Band leader Bones first saw Santana at the age of 12 and he has been a fan ever since. Because of his successful, 8 year collaboration with George Mossman on Salida’s Next Last Waltz, the two recruited some of the region’s best talent to form Santa Rios in 2021.
Known for their high-energy concerts, Santa Rios has sold out many performances at some of Colorado’s most prestigious venues. They offer a diverse and accessible setlist that appeals to both die-hard Santana fans and newcomers alike infusing every show with Santana’s soul-stirring melodies and infectious rhythms, creating an atmosphere that is so joyous “You Can’t Not Dance!”
