Viva Santana is a high-energy tribute celebrating the soaring guitar and electric rhythms of Carlos Santana—music that demands deep feel, precision, and soul. Covering Santana isn’t something just anyone can do. It takes a special combination of tone, touch, and total commitment.
Fronted by Amie Said, Viva Santana delivers exactly that. Amie has been performing the music of Santana since childhood, absorbing the phrasing, sustain, and emotional intensity that define Santana’s unmistakable sound. His playing captures not only the iconic tone, but the spiritual and rhythmic essence that makes this music timeless.
Amie is also the founder of Coco Jafro, a respected Latin band known for its powerful grooves, rich percussion, and deep rhythmic authenticity. That background shines through in Viva Santana, where the rhythm section is just as vital as the guitar—driving, danceable, and relentlessly alive.
With soaring solos, infectious Latin rock rhythms, and a deep respect for the original material, Viva Santana delivers a passionate, authentic tribute to one of rock’s greatest guitarists. This is not an imitation—it’s a celebration. A show for listeners, dancers, and anyone who believes that music is, indeed, the healing force.
