Folk musician and songwriter William Alexander and Chicago blues band Catfish Voodoo will perform from 2pm on Saturday.
Alexander is a local performer who is inspired by older songs and ballads. His music tells stories and is very poetic.
Catfish Voodoo are usually a five-piece blues band but will be featured as a duo with lead vocalist and guitarist Julian James and harmonica wizard Aaron Gillett playing on Saturday.
Their high-energy show has a strong 1950s flavour and is sure to impress.
The Blues Tram departs Central Deborah Goldmine at 2pm on Saturday and returns 4.15pm. Drinks and snacks will be available for purchase.
Tickets are $35 and available from Bendigo Visitor Centre on 1800 813 513 or www.bendigotourism.com. The next Blues Tram is on March 4 and will feature duo Mojo Corner and Emilee South.
