Rod Stewart and Santana, two of musics most influential hit makers and dynamic live performers, will join forces and embark on an 18-concert North American tour this summer. Kicking-off May 23 in Albany, NY, the tour unites two musical trailblazers who have helped redefine the sound of popular music for the last five decades through their combined love of rock, soul, world rhythms, funk, jazz and blues. Both Stewart and Santana are known for their high-energy, hit-packed live concerts — making the combination an incomparable experience for all music fans.
With his singular voice, narrative songwriting and passionate live performances, Rod Stewart has built one of the most successful and enduring music careers of all time. In a career spanning more than five decades, he has amassed sales of more than 150 million albums worldwide and has countless chart-topping hits and industry accolades – including two inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 2007, he was bestowed Commander of the British Empire (CBE) by the Queen of England. In May 2013, Stewart released Time, his first rock album in a dozen years, on Capitol Records. The album features 11 original tracks and marks Rods return to songwriting after nearly two decades. Time entered the UK Albums Chart at No. 1, setting a new British record for the longest gap between chart-topping albums by an artist — and in the US, it marked Stewarts highest-charting album of original material since 1979. In addition to touring, Stewart headlines one of Las Vegas most critically and commercially successful residencies at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.
For forty years and as many albums later, Santana has sold more than 100 million records and reached more than 100 million fans at concerts worldwide. To date, Santana has won ten GRAMMY ® Awards and three Latin GRAMMY ® Awards. He won a record-tying nine GRAMMYs for a single project for 1999s Supernatural (including Album of the Year and Record of the Year for Smooth). He has also received the Billboard Century Award (1996), was ushered into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1998), and received the Billboard Latin Music Awards Lifetime Achievement honor (2009). Among many other honors, Carlos Santana has also been cited by Rolling Stone as #15 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. Celebrating the chart debut of Guitar Heaven (Arista) in 2010, Santana joined the ranks of the Rolling Stones as the only musical act in chart history to score at least one Top 10 album in every decade beginning with the 1960s. He is also currently headlining at a multi-year residency at House of Blues at Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas. In 2013, Carlos Santana was the recipient of the 2013 Kennedy Center Honors Award. Santanas new album CORAZÓN (RCA/Sony Latin Iberia) due out May 6, 2014 is a collaborative effort with the biggest names in Latin music.

My favorite Rod Stewart songs of all time are, Maggie May, Hot Legs, Your’re in My Heart and Tonight’s the Night. The weirdest thing is this older boy when I was 13 and I had a crush on told me I looked like Rod Stewart, that was the last person I wanted to look like of course. His mom said that was the ultimate compliment and even that was because he liked me, too. However, looking like Rod Stewart was not my idea of a compliment.
My favorite Santana songs are Evil Ways, Black Magic Woman, Hope Your Feeling Better and Smooth. I think I love almost every song I have heard by Santana
My favorite Rod Stewart song is Have I told you lately, and my favorite Santana song is Oye Como Va. This would be a perfect opportunity to take my great-aunt to see two of her favorite artists.
