Santana matches these supreme performances as only he can, with scintillating solos that explode with tectonic force. Thomas is dynamic, sensual and utterly magnetic, and heвЂ™s ably backed by the punchy vocal talents of American Authors (especially the bandвЂ™s Zac Barnett, who takes the lead spot in the second verse). SantanaвЂ™s vibrant opening guitar licks set things ablaze, and then weвЂ™re off on a grinding, grooving, swaggering, swaying and altogether breathtaking mix of pop and Latin rock with sure-fire hooks for days. Right out of the gate, the song is a winner. When Rob and I work together, we have a sound thatвЂ™s splendiferous.вЂќ Ignite and activate yourself вЂ“ you know, move. The song is about awakening your molecules. вЂњIt was like divine intelligence behind the scenes, and I just knew I had to record it with Rob. вЂњвЂMoveвЂ™ came about was very much like how вЂSmoothвЂ™ happened,вЂќ says Santana. Music fans have breathlessly awaited another pairing of Carlos Santana Rob Thomas, whose 1999 multiple Grammy-winning smash вЂњSmoothвЂќ became a worldwide staple вЂ“ and the two performers have smashed all expectations and turned in a new classic. The knockout track, with also features the vocal talents of American Authors, will be released to radio on August 18, ahead of the full-length album, which will be issued worldwide via BMG on October 15. He also thinks you should read OnMilwaukee each and every day.Multi-Grammy Award-winning Rock and Roll Hall of Fame guitarist Carlos SantanaВ has announced that the first single from his star-studded, masterful new album, Blessings and Miracles, is вЂњMove,вЂќВ the much-anticipated reteaming of the music legend and guitar icon with famed Matchbox 20 singer Rob Thomas. He's a political, music, sports and news junkie and thinks, for what it's worth, that all new movies should be released in theaters, on demand, online and on DVD simultaneously. He owns a condo in Downtown and lives in greater Milwaukee with his wife Stephanie, his son, Jake, and daughter Pierce. He's honored to have been named to The Business Journal's '30 under 30' and Milwaukee Magazine's '35 under 35' lists. He holds an MBA from Cardinal Stritch University, and is the founding president of Young Professionals of Milwaukee (YPM)/Fuel Milwaukee.Д®arly in his career, Sherman was one of youngest members of the Greater Milwaukee Committee, and currently is involved in numerous civic and community groups - including board positions at The Wisconsin Center District, Wisconsin Club and Marcus Center for the Performing Arts. He grew up in Wauwatosa and graduated from Marquette University, as a Warrior. Several of the numbers included imagery on a large backdrop including rotating, dancing women for his tune 'Gasoline.'ДЄ life-long and passionate community leader and Milwaukeean, Jeff Sherman is a co-founder of OnMilwaukee. With only two Matchbox 20 tunes on the set list ('Real World' and an acoustic encore of '3 a.m.'), Thomas and his 5-piece band and 2 back up singers cranked through tune after tune with an easy, well-produced flow. We'll be better off somehow, someday,' to his mega hit 'Smooth' (sang during the encore with opening act guitarist Zach Filkins of OneRepublic) it was easy to see why and how Thomas resonates so well with mass audiences. From his new, spiritual hit 'Someday' where he sings 'And maybe someday we'll live our lives out loud. Yet, judging from his Saturday night show, Thomas' solo career is showing no signs of slowing.ДЇlowing between chart topping rockers, funny anecdotes and his signature ballads, Thomas owned the staged with his hits. It's a machine that's blended in while standing out because of a solid voice and an honesty that's sold very well on the pop and especially adult-contemporary charts.ДЄdmit it, if you're one of those 'I don't listen to popular music' people, Thomas' accessible spin on alternative rock makes you cringe. While he's no longer a hip, alt rocker, the 37-year-old artist has comfortably created a hit-making machine out of himself. Touring behind his second solo album, the Matchbox 20 lead singer stopped at the Riverside Theater Saturday for a sold out show. Let me put it this way, Rob Thomas seems pretty comfortable just being Rob Thomas. I liked Matchbox 20, but wasn't sure if Thomas solo would be too much soft rock for me. I honestly didn't know what to think as I headed into Saturday night's Rob Thomas concert.
