Doobie Brothers
Tour 2026

What to Expect — A Double Headliner Unlike Any Other

The Oneness Tour pairs two acts whose musical legacies span a combined century of influence. Carlos Santana brings his signature Afro-Latin-blues-rock guitar mastery — the sound that electrified Woodstock, defined Abraxas, and conquered the world with Supernatural. The Doobie Brothers counter with their roots-based, harmony-laden rock and roll, weaving Tom Johnston’s guitar-driven energy with Michael McDonald’s soulful blue-eyed R&B. Together, the two acts create an evening that moves from fiery Latin rock to California groove without missing a beat.

Both bands are Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees — Santana was inducted in 1998 and The Doobie Brothers in 2020. The Doobies were also inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2025, honoring Johnston, Simmons, and McDonald for their enduring contributions to popular music. Between them, the acts have won multiple Grammy Awards and sold well over 100 million records combined.

The Doobie Brothers — Walk This Road Era

The Doobie Brothers enter the Oneness Tour riding the success of Walk This Road, released June 6, 2025, on Rhino Records. The 10-track album is a landmark — the first Doobie Brothers studio record to feature all four current members (Johnston, Simmons, McFee, and McDonald) contributing as writers and performers. Produced by John Shanks at Multiview Studios in Los Angeles, it balances Johnston’s riff-driven rock with McDonald’s soulful pop sensibility.

Highlights include the bluesy title track featuring Mavis Staples, the breezy shuffle “Call Me,” the soulful “Learn to Let Go,” and “Lahaina” featuring Mick Fleetwood and Jake Shimabukuro. Critics praised the album warmly — Classic Rock magazine called it “an album as full of joy as it is of craft.”

Santana — Five Decades of Fire

Since emerging from San Francisco in the late 1960s, Carlos Santana has created one of the most instantly recognizable sounds in music history. His guitar tone — a fusion of rock, blues, Latin, jazz, and African rhythms — transcends genre boundaries. From the 1969 Woodstock performance that announced him to the world, through landmark albums like Abraxas and Supernatural (which won eight Grammy Awards in a single night), Santana’s music speaks a universal language.
