Hunter Valley's Americana Dashville Skyline Festival is back for another round in 2016 and the first round of acts for the hugely-anticipated event have just been announced.

Leading this year's bill is Aussie music royalty Brian Cadd of late '60s acts The Groop and Axiom, as well as '90s outfit The Flying Burrito Brothers.

"Brian Cadd is an absolute living legend," festival organiser Matt Johnston said.

"For me I think he represents a huge part of what this festival is about…supreme songwriting".

Cadd is joined on the line-up by San Franciscan folk band The Brothers Comatose, Australian folk and country ensemble The Wilson Pickers, Kurri Kurri songwriter Melody Pool and more.
