Santana

In July 2016, when Santana performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival, the band was enjoying a strong resurgence in their career. Just prior to this live recording, Santana had released the studio album "Santana IV" in 2016, which marked the return of several original members, including Greg Rolie and Neal Schon. This album was significant in re-establishing the band's classic sound and received critical acclaim, reconnecting them with both longtime fans and newer audiences. The Montreux performance featured a high-energy set, highlighting Santana's trademark fusion of rock, blues, and Latin music. Notably, the festival has been an important platform for Santana, as he has performed there multiple times since the beginning of his career. This concert was not only a showcase of Santana's enduring talent but also celebrated the band's ability to innovate while honoring their rich musical heritage.
