On Friday evening, Ruoff Home Mortgage Music Center played host to Santana and The Doobie Brothers.

The Doobie Brothers opened the evening and rocked their classic tunes. The crowd especially liked “Taking It to the Streets” and “Listen to the Music.”

In June, Santana released a new studio album called Africa Speaks. Carlos and his crew were on point, energizing the attendees both visually and musically.

Central Indiana is fortunate to have such a venue that is one of the favorites for fans who travel across the country to hear their favorite artists perform. Coming up this week at Ruoff is the Knotfest Roadshow, featuring Slipknot, Volbeat, Gojira and Behemoth on Friday, Aug. 16; Hootie & The Blowfish: Group Therapy Tour on Saturday, Aug. 17; and Luke Bryan: Sunset Repeat Tour 2019 on Sunday, Aug. 18.
