Rusted Root has secured 16 East Coast and Midwest dates on the Santana tour kicking off July 31 in Virginia Beach, VA and wrapping August 25 in St. Paul, MN.
This will not be Rusted Root’s first time out with Santana, but for lead singer/guitarist Michael Glabicki, co-founder of Rusted Root, this tour in particular, promises its share of surprises. "I expect to be up onstage with Santana and have him play three or four songs I've never heard, and he's gonna point to me about 30 seconds into each song and ask me to take a solo," Glabicki laughs. "Then he's going to walk offstage with a cigar and leave me there. Always with Carlos, it's a big, huge smile; that's what I love about playing with him."
