Soul and blues band The Teskey Brothers will play at the third annual event with the picturesque setting of Halls Gap and the Grampians.
More than 550 tickets have already been sold for the event which will take place at the Halls Gap Hotel on Sunday, December 2.
The group recently released the album Half Mile Harvest and have been busy touring, including performing at the reopening of The Espy in St Kilda on Thursday night.
“We are really excited to have those guys coming down,” Halls Gap Hotel manager Matt Humphries said.
“They have gotten pretty big both nationally and internationally in the last 18 months so it is pretty exciting for the region to have a group of this calibre performing.”
The event is close to selling out, exceeding sales of last year’s concert.
“Ticket sales have been really strong, well and truly exceeding last year,” Mr Humphries said.
“Kids under 15 are free as well so they aren’t included in the ticket sale numbers we have now.”
Mr Humphries said the event is another way of bringing people from Melbourne to the region as well as providing community members with quality musical acts.
“Our whole idea is to bring big name acts to the region that people around here might not be able to see otherwise,” he said.
“We look to provide a great day out for everyone which would have a flow on effect to other businesses in the town and region.”
The Teskey Brothers will be supported by Rach Brennan and The Pines, MANE and Alister Turrill.
Tickets cost $48 and are available at hallsgaphotel.oztix.com.au
Gates open at 3pm.
