Sayer's career has spanned more than four decades and has seen him sell millions of records, produce 20 worldwide top-10 hit singles and win a Grammy award.

He will perform on Tumbafest's main stage on the festival's opening day.

Supporting acts include Wagga-based entertainer Jamie Way, who will present a Garth Brooks tribute show on day two of Tumbafest, The Mighty Yak and The Convicts.

Blues lovers will enjoy Sugarcane Collins as well as Jules Boult and the Redeemers.

Rounding out the line-up are Melbourne band Sol Nation, local singer-songwriter Joel Harrison, Melbourne-based duo Iris, Nightshift and Cathy Wall.

One lucky local entertainer will be given the chance to open the festival this year and will be selected at the Tumba's Got Talent event, to be held on February 1 at the Tumbarumba Memorial Hall.
