True to their statement of presenting quality eclectic music, organisers of The 9th Annual Gum Ball are pleased to announce the second round of artists to the already impressive line-up, with the alt-country ‘supergroup’ The Hillbilly Killers headlining the bill.

Comprising of Tim Rogers, Catherine Britt, Bill Chambers, and friends the formidable collaboration known as The Hillbilly Killers will be performing an exclusive set at the festival.

With a new album in the works and an online single release that has been met with immediate praise and anticipation of what is to follow this will be a must-see performance.

Joining The Hillbilly Killers will be Australian stoner rock legends Tumbleweed, DEADLY Award winners The Medics, New Zealand string band The Eastern, Melbourne rockers Money for Rope, followed by a small army of quality emerging acts from around Australia.

Due to demand, the family friendly, BYO, camping festival has extended its program to run over three nights this year.

‘Dashville’ the bushland venue located at Belford, Hunter Valley will open its gates to The Gum Ball at midday Anzac Day Thursday 25th April, running through to Sunday morning 28th April 2013.

With ticket sales already at record levels, an extended program and further line-up announcements to follow, the 2013 festival is well on its way to being the biggest and best Gum Ball to date.
