The event is scheduled for January 22nd at the city-based antiSOCIAL and will see the best blues acts battle it out for a chance to perform at the festival.

After a flood of submissions, the stage is now set for the top three participants to showcase their musical prowess to the judges, Ehsaan Noorani and Loy Mendonsa from composer trio Shankar–Ehsaan–Loy.
