The publisher, a division of Hachette Book Group, announced Thursday that the book is scheduled for release in 2014. It doesn't yet have a title.

The 65-year-old Santana is expected to tell stories of such friends and peers as Miles Davis, Eric Clapton and Herbie Hancock.

Little, Brown and Co. has a strong history of rock star memoirs: Two years ago, it published Keith Richard's Life.

Santana has won 15 Grammys and is best known for the album Supernatural, which has sold more than 25 million copies.
