Carlos Santana has successfully undergone heart surgery and cancels several performances scheduled for December in Las Vegas.
Star guitarist Carlos Santana (74) has successfully undergone heart surgery and cancels several concerts in Las Vegas that are planned for December.
In a video message that was released on Wednesday, the musician initially only said that he asked his wife – musician Cindy Blackman (62) – to take him to the hospital last Saturday because he had problems in his chest. “I’m going to take a little break to relax and unwind,” said Santana.
Manager confirms heart surgery
Michael Vrionis, president of Universal Tone Management, said the 74-year-old guitarist had “unplanned heart surgery,” but didn’t give details, “The Hollywood Reporter” said.
The heart surgery and recovery of the ten-time Grammy Award winner resulted in his concerts at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino being canceled until the end of the year. According to his management, he will be able to perform his appearances again in January. “Carlos is doing fantastic and is keen to get back on stage soon,” Vrionis said in a statement. “He deeply regrets that this ‘incident’ has made it necessary to cancel his upcoming performances.”
At the beginning of the year Santana released the album “Blessings and Miracles”. The US musician of Mexican origin and the US jazz and fusion drummer have been married since 2010.
