Born in Autlán de Navarro, a municipality in the Mexican state of Jalisco, the Santana brothers grew up in Tijuana before emigrating to San Francisco in the 1960s, where the counterculture and hippie movement promised frenzied adventures for young people.
In the Californian city, Jorge began to play in a band called The Malibus, which would later be called Malo and with which they would achieve success in 1972 with the song "Suavecito".
Jorge was also part of the band The Fania All-Stars and played alongside Carlos on a joint tour in the 90s and on the album "Santana Brothers".
For his part, Carlos, 72, now resides in Las Vegas with his second wife, Cindy Blackman, and does not lose sight of what is happening today and, especially, what has to do with the Latino population and with the controversial measures of the president of the USA, Donald Trump.
"When Hitler was in power, there was the Resistance, and from there it went to the ‘beatniks’, then to Bob Dylan and Greenwich Village, and then to San Francisco and the hippies. There is always a new wave. process ", argued the musician in an interview with Rolling Stone.
Santana also assured that every time Trump appears on television, he turns it off so as not to hear him.
