Shemekia to go back to the Mahindra Blues Festival

Sharing his thoughts on the evolution of the festival, Anand Mahindra, Chairman, Mahindra Group said, “The seventh year of the Mahindra Blues Festival is surely going to live up to what Mumbai expects—a world class festival with a world class line-up. Join us in welcoming Shemekia Copeland and Quinn Sullivan back to the Mahindra Blues Festival along with the other fantastic Blues artists. We are delighted to see Mumbai’s Mahindra Blues tribe grow year after year.”
