Atlanta Blues Challenge 2026
Sunday, August 16, 2026
Madlife Stage & Studios
The Atlanta Blues Challenge is a WRAP! From scintillating soloists, through dynamic duos, and a handful of badass bands, the crowd was treated to some serious talent and some charismatic performances. Everyone was impressive, but there can be only one winner, and that was Cash’s Juke Joint!
Please return to this space for a lot more info on the winners and runners up, as well as photos and video from the event. A long-form compilation video will be produced later, which will feature clips from all the performing artists.
