Michael Franti & Spearhead and will join Santana for a month-long series of dates starting in late August. Franti will appear on Santana’s Sound of Collective Consciousness Tour from August 25 at Auburn, WA’s White River Amphitheatre through September 23 at Reno, NV’s Reno Events Center (Franti and Spearhead are not now confirmed for Santana’s September 3 and 4 Red Rocks gigs in which George Lopez will server as the opener). Franti has commented on the bill, explaining,“It’s not often you get to meet one of your heroes, let alone go on tour with one. Carlos’ music has always been about the inclusion of all peoples and cultures. He has inspired millions around the world, including me, to seek their highest good. To be honest, I can’t think of a better party for the body and soul than a Santana-Spearhead concert.”
