Carlos Santana is recovering after collapsing at a concert in Michigan this week.

Carlos’ wife Cindy updated fans on her husband’s condition in a post, “Hi Everyone! Carlos & I thank you so much for your prayers, love, care & concern for him! Please know that he’s resting and doing very well! He was diagnosed with heat exhaustion & dehydration… it was 100 degrees on stage and 114 under the lights so that coupled with not enough water is what caused the issue. He’ll be as good as new soon! Thank you again and we love you! Cindy & Carlos.”

Carlos was taken away on a stretcher after he collapsed at the show at the Pine Knob Music Theatre as he was introducing the ninth song ‘Joy’.

The setlist before the show stopped was:

Soul Sacrifice (from Santana, 1969)
Jin-go-lo-ba (from Santana, 1969)
Evil Ways (from Santana, 1969)
