If you want to explore blues like never before, Purva Indulkar tells you all about the Mahindra Blues Festival at Mumbai’s iconic Mehboob Studios
Asia’s largest blues phenomenon, the Mahindra Blues Festival, is back with its 6th edition, which will be held at the iconic Mehboob Studios in Bandra, this time over two days! The star-studded line-up of artists includes three-time Grammy Award winner Keb Mo, Joss Stone, the Heritage Blues Orchestra, King King, Malina Moye and the national sensation Soulmate. The festival has been instrumental not only in making international blues legends accessible to Indian audiences, but also when it comes to providing a platform for local talent. Anand Mahindra, chairman of the Mahindra Group tells us, “It gives me immense pride in witnessing the rising popularity of blues in India, and I am glad that the Mahindra Blues Festival is leading this trend. It is a delight to see the diversity of blues fans at the festival each year and to witness them collectively enjoying the music!”
