Mumbai Comes to Manhattan on Saturday Night!

Yes, you heard this right – Mumbai is coming to Manhattan for one night – and it’s a wonderful free musical event for you to enjoy with friends and family at an iconic city venue, Lincoln Center.  Normally you’d have to go to Mumbai to hear this – but now you can enjoy it in Manhattan, under the starlit sky.

This year, Mahindra Blues Festival, Jazz at Lincoln Center, and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts join forces to present Mahindra Blues Special on Saturday July 15 at 6pm, a one night only celebration of the many communities connected to the blues with performances at two special locations on the Lincoln Center campus. at 6:00 pm, catch Indian-born Aayushi Karnik with NYC veterans Russell Hall on bass and Cameron MacIntosh on drums at The Dance Floor at Josie Robertson Plaza, playing original music fusing blues guitar and jazz harmony.
At 7:30 pm, make your way to Damrosch Park to take in the incredible vocal stylings of Brianna Thomas and Ella Sang The Blues, followed by the Corey Harris Band, known for mixing New Orleans, Caribbean, and African influences into their eclectic sound.

The Mahindra Blues Special is presented as part of Lincoln Center’s Summer for the City, the ultimate New York festival. This special summer event spans three summer months and features hundreds of events and thousands of artists, all in celebration of New York City.
