BUENA VISTA SOCIAL CLUB & SANTANA — PERFORMED LIVE

Performed LIVE by The Classic Double Band

Saturday 12th June | 19:00 – 23:00

Camp and Furnace, Liverpool

One band. Two legendary sounds. One huge night of LIVE Latin music.

This June, The Classic Double Band return to Camp and Furnace for something a little different – an incredible live celebration of Buena Vista Social Club and Santana.

From the warm, intoxicating rhythms of Havana to the unmistakable guitar sound of Carlos Santana, we're bringing together two completely different sides of Latin music for a night built around exceptional musicianship, percussion, rhythm and songs that sound incredible played LIVE.

Expect Cuban son, Latin jazz, salsa, blues, rock and psychedelia as The Classic Double Band take on two truly iconic catalogues.

EXPECT TO HEAR

Oye Como Va • Smooth • Black Magic Woman • Samba Pa Ti • Maria Maria • Evil Ways • Europa • Corazón Espinado • Soul Sacrifice • Chan Chan • El Cuarto de Tula • Candela • Dos Gardenias • El Carretero • Veinte Años • Quizás, Quizás, Quizás

...and more from Santana and the incredible music of Buena Vista Social Club.

FROM HAVANA...

Few records have transported listeners somewhere quite like Buena Vista Social Club.

The landmark album introduced millions around the world to a generation of extraordinary Cuban musicians and a sound filled with Spanish guitar, piano, trumpet, double bass, percussion and beautiful, soulful vocals.

Songs like Chan Chan, Dos Gardenias and El Cuarto de Tula have become timeless.

On a summer night at Camp and Furnace, we're bringing that unmistakable atmosphere to the stage – performed by a proper live band.

...TO SANTANA

Then we turn everything up.

The percussion gets heavier. The amplifiers kick in. And that guitar takes over.

From the explosive Latin rock of Oye Como Va, Evil Ways and Black Magic Woman to the huge melodies of Samba Pa Ti and Europa, Santana created one of the most distinctive sounds in popular music.

And then came another generation of enormous Santana records – Smooth, Maria Maria and Corazón Espinado – bringing that sound straight back to the top of the charts.

This is music that demands brilliant musicians.

Guitars. Percussion. Keys. Bass. Drums. Vocals. All performed LIVE.

No DJ sets. No tracks. No imitation of the original artists standing alone on stage.

A full band doing justice to extraordinary music.

WHO SHOULD COME?

If you love Santana, Buena Vista Social Club, Latin music, Cuban music, blues, soul, jazz, world music or simply watching brilliant musicians play live, this is absolutely one for you.

It's for the people who bought Supernatural and played it to death.

It's for anyone who fell in love with the sound and story of Buena Vista Social Club.

It's for Santana fans who want to hear those guitar solos properly played live.

And it's for anyone who might not know every song title, but knows within seconds of hearing Chan Chan, Smooth, Oye Como Va or Black Magic Woman that they know the music.

This isn't about dressing up as the artists.

It's about the songs and the musicianship.

The Classic Double Band have become Camp and Furnace favourites by taking some of the greatest catalogues in music and giving them the full live treatment – and this time they're heading somewhere warmer.

So grab a drink, get down the front and let us take you from the streets of Havana to the sound of Santana in one huge summer Saturday night.
