Very Santana Tribute Gigs

A wonderful show, and so much talent!

A wonderful show, and so much talent. Thank you. We saw Santana in Paris about 5 years ago and you were equally as talented, and they have a massive music backing. Awesome xx see you again!

Fiona Payne

Fabulous Gig!

Fabulous Gig! I travelled from Liverpool to see you which was well worth it. I’ve been to Alexander’s Live a few times too. Why not come play in the Music Capital of the World? The Cavern maybe!

Brian Chorley

Absolutely brilliant show ….see you next year!

Already booked for next year – thank you so much for an absolutely superb evening! You are all so talented! Still playing in my head!
It was the second time we’ve seen you there at Wimborne and to say it was a great evening is an understatement!
You are a brilliantly talented bunch! My husband has always been the major Santana fan in our family but following you guys has made me one too.
Can’t wait to see you again next year but meanwhile we hope you all have a fantastic tour.

Gareth Rogers

If you get the chance to go see them please do!

Absolutely excellent gig last night, if you get the chance to go see them please do ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 star experience! I spoke to the lead guitarist at the interval at told him last week I went to see Joe Bonamassa in Leeds and tbh I was enjoying very Santana more!

John Flinton

Sheer brilliance

Wow! They took me back to my days on radio in the 70s when I played the originals. Sheer brilliance. Bravo!

Stan Acaster

Complexities in arrangements

Not an easy band to emulate due to complexities in arrangements…this band do a great job and stay close to the original.

Gary Bowler

Very nice!

Hard to emulate such a great guitarist, but he’s doing a nice job!

John Souter

This group takes you back in time

Went to the concert in Hay on Wye. Absolutely loved it! A very cosy performance, almost personal! Been a Santana fan since the 70s. This group takes you back in time. Everyone was competent, involved and musical, but the guitarist was “in the zone”! He WAS Carlos Santana! Well done guys. Fab-u-lous!!!

Malcolm Smith

Absolutely loved it!

Absolutely loved seeing you guys! See you when you’re back in Wales!

Jodie Denniss

Caught the Santana vibe perfectly!

Great show!!! You guys caught the Santana vibe perfectly! I loved the improved guitar so very Carlos!

Phil Powell

Gaz Jones

Opening with “ Soul Sacrifice” , and carried on “cookin”

Just recently seen Very Santana at the Ramsbottom Civic Hall, what a great night they treated us too. Authentic Santana sound and mood , great musicians and vocals , totally blitzed the opening with “ Soul Sacrifice” , and carried on “ cookin” all night ! Covered lots of Santana’s work from different eras, really good, will definitely go again next time they are around!

David Eyre

Amazing

Fantastic concert and great venue, you guys were amazing!

Steve England

One of the best tribute band i’ve seen.

I was there last night, front row, absolutely loved it, one of the best tribute band i’ve seen.

Jimmy Duffy

“Very Santana” have been able to capture the very essence of Santana.

I’ve been a hardened fan of Santana since the late 60’s , through their Latin rock albums 1,2 and 3 , his flirt with Jazz with McLaughlin and nods to Miles Davis, Pharoah Sanders and Coltrane , on Welcome and Caravansari, cumulated in the album with Alice Coltrane Illumination . I know every note and nuance of their music and the spirit it conjures . I have to say the band ” Very Santana ” have been able to capture the very essence of Santana. I loved their show in Warwick recently and I will definitely be back for more . You guys are a real credit to their decades of musicality.

Godwin John

Fantastic evening at a stunning venue

An amazing talented band and a fantastic evening at a stunning venue! Great to meet you-make sure you come back again!

Julia Odey

Superb performance

A great night, superb performance. We all had a fantastic time.

Martin Pepper

Last eve, wow!!!

I was there as well, from Hfd, have been to the Globe before, but this was sooo personal, I’ve seen original group Colston Hall circa 1972 around Carsvanserai period, great eve! Got friends in Newquay have mesgd them!

Pete Girling

I’ve never even heard anyone attempt this

I’ve been a Santana fan since sneaking into the cinema at 15 years old in 1969 to see Woodstock. Soul Sacrifice blew me away. That rendering by this band is brilliant. I’ve never even heard anyone attempt this most intricate of tracks. If you ever come to the Edinburgh area I’ll be first in the queue.

Ian Hunter

Amazeballs!

Just seen you in Warwick, absolutely amazeballs!

Rashida Ann Shaikh

Loved the energy

You can almost think this was Santana for real

Bryher Taylor

Very well played!

Keep the spirit of Santana up. Very well played. I’ve been following Santana since I was introduced to Abraxas. I’ve played a lot of his solo’s on Shows for years. It’s lovely to see a tribute to such a great guitar player. All the best for the future.
