As an affiliated Blues Society of The Blues Foundation, each year the D.C. Blues Society ("DCBS") has the opportunity to send a band and solo/duo musician(s) to represent its organization at the International Blues Challenge held annually in Memphis, TN along historic Beale Street. To select IBC participants, DCBS must stage a live challenge between multiple musicians, resulting in a performer in each category, whether as a band and/or solo/duo artist(s). Because of Covid-related complications and precautions, the 2021 Battle of the Bands was held without an audience, just judges and volunteers.
