Jess Dunbar and Matt Price rose to fame after placing third in the 2015 series of the television show and have made Nashville a frequent stop along their musical journey, but for Price, Wagga holds a dear place in his heart.

"My Dad's side of the family are from Wagga, my Grandad used to own the Price Family Chemist which is now a medical centre operated by Dad," he said.

"I grew up spending a lot of time in Wagga so it's very special to come home and finally perform here, we have both wanted to for a long time now."

Dunbar said Wagga Beach was top of her list of things to do when arriving to the city.

"We actually had our first date at Wagga Beach back in the day when I first met Matt's family so I'm really excited to go and see it again," she said.

The couple will perform at the CSU Riverina Playhouse on February 8, and Price said the venue would make for an intimate show.

"This is a big trip as it is for us and it will be the first time playing our new single live so we want it to be an intimate show at the Playhouse venue is perfect for it," he said.

The pair have spent much of their recent years in Nashville recording and producing music.

"We spend about three months there every year now so it has become a second home for us in a way," Price said.

Dunbar said the audience can expect to hear a range of sounds at their upcoming performance.

"We have written a lot of new bodies of work during our time in Nashville which is very exciting, but we will also have a lot of originals and songs from old albums to look forward to," she said.

Jess and Matt will also be donating $5 from every ticket sold to the bushfire appeal to help communities rebuild.
