This year the MBF will have legendary performers like Buddy Guy, Doyle Bramhall II, Nikki Hill, Quinn Sullivan and Rich Robinson. The festival had earlier seen the likes of international blues legends like John Lee Hooker Jr, Taj Mahal and Walter Trout. It has also become a great platform for Indian Blues bands to perform along with the best Blues musicians in the world. In 2014, MBF was nominated for the 'Keeping the Blues Alive' award presented by The Blues Foundation of America.
