Live music's return is set for Saturday, March 6, at the Diamond House Motor Inn's function centre, where the Melbourne-based blues artists will give the town some much-needed noise.

Diamond House Motor Inn owner Dave Wainwright said while capacity limits restrict the event, he was looking forward to having people return for a live performance.

"I enjoy the live events so its great to have them back," he said.

"And it is all about trying to get the community to enjoy live music again, with quality international-performing acts.

"And that's what we aim for, all the people we get to come out here are top notch people and performers."

Mr Wainwright said 2020 was a challenging time for the Motor Inn but is hoping the live performance will start a healthy return.

"We survived it wasn't easy, but we survived," he said.

"We are here now and just waiting for more restrictions to be lifted, and then we can start to get more artists again, and we can get back to having performances once a month.

"The motel has been fairly well booked, especially recently, but we couldn't have any entertainment on due to the restrictions inside, but now we are ready to bring artists back and get as many people in as possible.

"It's a good start, but we would like to have more people cause we are still restricted."

Achison was inducted into the Blues Music Victoria Hall of Fame in 2020 and typically spends his time travelling across the United States and through the United Kingdom.

Tickets for the show can be booked directly through Diamond House or purchased on Geoff Achison's website.
