The tour ignites Santana’s high-energy, passion-driven hits spanning more than five decades—from the epic breakthrough of Abraxas to Woodstock to the global phenomenon of Supernatural and beyond. Each song is delivered with the same fire and spiritual intensity that have made Santana’s sound one of the most instantly recognizable and celebrated in history. For over fifty years, since emerging from San Francisco as a pioneering Afro-Latin-blues-rock force, Carlos Santana has created music that transcends genres and generations. His guitar, message, and music speak a universal language of rhythm and soul, uniting audiences worldwide.

The legendary hitmakers (Tom Johnston, Pat Simmons, John McFee, and Michael McDonald) will perform all the hits fans know and love as well as new music from their highly acclaimed new album, Walk This Road. Walk This Road, their 16th album, is the first-ever Doobie Brothers studio album to feature Johnston, Simmons, McFee, and McDonald with songwriting by all three Songwriters Hall of Fame inductees.

Santana and The Doobie Brothers share a history of touring together — most notably in 2019, when The Doobie Brothers supported Santana on the Supernatural Now tour, celebrating major milestones in Santana’s career, including the 20th anniversary of Supernatural and the 50th anniversary of his iconic performance at Woodstock.

Tickets will go on sale to the public beginning at 10AM on Friday, April 3 at Ticketmaster.com and the Rose Music Center Box Office.

Ted Nugent started “beating on my first guitar” around the age of five. Strongly influenced by Chuck Berry and Bo Diddly, he knew he wanted to pursue that type of sound and attitude. Early bands paved the way for the Amboy Dukes, and it was a feisty cover of the Dukes’ psychedelic Journey to the Center of the Mind that kicked Young Ted’s career into hyper drive.

The axe maniac broke out as a solo artist, signing with the legendary Epic Records, where the guitarist’s prodigious talent, ear shattering volume and over-the-top stage antics quickly earned him the moniker of Motor City Madman.

Cranking out hits like Cat Scratch Fever, Just What the Doctor Ordered, Free for All and the iconic Stranglehold, Nugent garnered international acclaim earned a permanent place in rock & roll history as the ultimate guitar-shredding showman, selling more than 40 million albums and performing over 6,900 high-octane live shows.

Ted Nugent was named Detroit’s Greatest Guitar Player of All Time by readers of MLive.
