Karl started
playing drums at an early age. In 1991, his life-long dream of playing
with Santana was
realized when he joined the band to play timbales.
He jokes that every young musician has an idol he wishes to play with
and his was Santana. Amazingly, he acheived his goal and is known
worldwide for his playing.
For over thirty years Rekow has added his colorful rhythms to the Santana
sound captivating audiences on all five continents. Intially self taught,
Raul decided to get serious and studied with the master himself, Armando
Peraza, a veteran Santana member.
