About
These are words that only begin to describe a most unique yet ineffable talent. A native Brazilian, Cecy Santana is equal parts samba, jazz, funk, rock ’n roll, and pop. She is an amalgam from the attributes of Gaga, Sade, Imbruglia, Aguilera, and Estefan. A composer of high acclaim, Santana’s music and videos have been in the charts for the past several years, propagated by the works of Triple Heat, Cecy Santana Band, and The Lotus Kings.
Santana has generated countless sold out shows and has developed a devoted following endlessly awaiting her next incarnation. Dubbed “The Chameleon,” she reinvents herself constantly through the auspices of the award-wining HMUA and photography of Jairo Garcia and Billy Pissios respectively. Cecy Santana is a phenom. Her beauty and charisma are only equaled by her talent. The chemistry created by Santana, whether with one of her many Brazilian ensembles or with her Afro-Celt Jazz Funk
group The Lotus Kings, commands your attention. You can not deny this level of excellence in composition and performance.
Born into an enormously musical family and hailing from Sao Paulo, Santana learned from her famous Brazilian father Carlos Santana – legendary trumpeter, conductor, and first chair of both the Sao Paulo and Rio Symphony Orchestras. Cecy’s original music has been featured in Commercials, music conventions, and as of now she is in the ballot for the Grammys with one of her originals “Um amor assim”, a song she donated to charity to help millions of kids get education. She has performed with New Orleans powerhouse Galactic and has appeared with Fantasia Barrino, Carl Thomas,
Roy Ayers, Musiq Soulchild, Lil Wayne and Hugo Ferreira from Tantric Rock band.
Cecy Santana is currently readying her debut solo album “Skyline” for release as well as the epic “Sao Paulo” written with Deacon Productions impresario and renaissance man Steven Kikoen of The Lotus Kings, with several other projects in the works. Santana has released multiple music videos to date and plans to release several more to tie in with all the projects she’s involved with. Cecy will be starring in a short film called “The Understudy” set for release during the 2021 season. Cecy Santana is poised to become the next major force in the ever-evolving art of music, theatre, and motion picture.
