JINGO! The Heart & Soul of Santana!
Jingo – The Santana Tribute recreates the music of SANTANA with an unparalleled passion and authenticity.
SANTANA, led by legendary Mexican-American guitarist and songwriter Carlos Santana, is one of the best-selling groups of all time with over 47 million certified albums sold in the U.S., and an estimated 100 million sold worldwide. In 1998, they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and in 2000 the band won six Grammy Awards in one night; a record tied with Michael Jackson, and three Latin Grammy Awards.
During the five decades of his career, Carlos Santana has been a true multi-cultural artist. He contributed to shaping the concept of “world music” by his experiments with blending many styles and genres of music from a multitude of ethnic sources. His instantly identifiable blend of Latin, salsa, blues, rock, and Afro-Cuban styles has been evolving with the inclusion of elements from jazz, fusion, and world beat. His unique and instantly recognizable sound is legendary: “With one note people know me…” says Carlos Santana.
The seven musicians that comprise Jingo – The Santana Tribute are dedicated to recreating this legendary music with integrity and respect. Don’t miss your chance to see Jingo LIVE!
