Carlos Santana is currently working on putting together a jazz fusion supergroup he's called Supernova, according to Billboard.
Billboard reports that Supernova will feature Santana and his wife, drummer Cindy Blackman, saxophonist Wayne Shorter, keyboardist Herbie Hancock and guitarist John McLaughlin.
Santana said that his plans include "definitely spring recording and summer touring in Europe and maybe America."
"Can you hear it? It's kind of like playing with, sharing music with Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking, 'cause Wayne and Herbie, they're at that level of genius, genius, genius, genius," he told Billboard. "I'm just grateful that they accept it and want to do it. And every time I play with Cindy, it goes viral. People go crazy. The energy between Cindy and I is very, very supernova."
