Launched in 2011 with the aim of forming \u201cthe biggest blues community in Asia\u201d, this annual two-day music festival by <\/a>Mahindra & Mahindra features some of the genre\u2019s biggest and best acts. Among the legends and stars to have headlined the festival, which takes place at Mumbai\u2019s Mehboob Studios, are its official ambassador Buddy Guy, John Mayall, Charlie Musselwhite, Walter Trout, Jimmie Vaughan, Coco Montoya, Keb’ Mo\u2019, John Lee Hooker Jr., Doyle Bramhall II, Beth Hart, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Robert Randolph, Jonny Lang, Joss Stone and Quinn Sullivan.

In 2016, the stages were renamed the Polka Dot Parlour, after Guy\u2019s signature polka-dot shirt, and the Soul Strat Saloon after homegrown blues-rock heroes Soulmate and Blackstratblues, who have played the event multiple times. Since 2015, the festival has conducted the nationwide Mahindra Blues Band Hunt through which the winning group gets to perform on the garden stage of the festival on both days. The previous winners are Aayushi Karnik,\u00a0 Blu, Arinjoy Trio, Blue Temptation and Quiet Storm. The festival was last held in 2020. However, the one-day Mahindra Blues Special, featuring Soulmate and fellow Indian blues musicians, was staged in March 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
