Chugg Entertainment have announced this morning that come Easter 2013 Australians will have the opportunity to witness Santana and Steve Miller Band take the stage for a double bill in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide.
The co-headline shows kick off at Melbourne's Rod Laver Arena on Thursday 21st March, Adelaide Entertainment Centre on Friday 22nd March, Sydney Entertainment Centre on Wednesday 27th March and then Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Thursday 28th March.
Santana's fusion of Latin rock, blues, soul and jazz comes in full swing on stage in a way that transcends time and the limits of genre typecasting. Delivered with a level of passion and soul equal to the legendary sonic charge of his guitar, the sound of Carlos Santana is one of the world's best known musical signatures.
Few musicians can boast the introduction that Miller had to music - his father who worked as a pathologist was friends with stars like Charles Mingus and Les Paul, whom he brought home as guests; Paul taught the young Miller some guitar chords and let him sit on recording sessions. With a career encompassing distinct stages from one of the top San Francisco blues-rockers during the late 60s and early 70s and then going on to become one of the top selling pop/rock acts of the mid to late 70s and early 80s.
