Carlos Santana “doing well”
After being rushed to hospital, Santana’s manager Michael Vrionis has announced that the singer is “doing well” in his recovery.
“Carlos was taken to the emergency department at McLaren Clarkston for observation and is doing well”, he said.
Vrionis also confirmed that the band’s performance at The Pavilion at Star Lake in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania, would be postponed.
“Last Saturday I had an incident where I asked my wife Cindy to take me to the hospital because I had this thing happening in my chest”, the singer said in a statement.
Santana also added, “So we went there (and) we found out we had to take care of it. So I am, and I’m going to be taking time out for a little bit to make sure I replenish and I rest and catch up with my health so that when I play for you I would play the way I’m used to and give you 150 percent. I wouldn’t show up unless I can do that”.
He was due to begin these shows last December. However, he resumed the residency in January.
