“Spicks and Specks” will be back on the ABC on Sunday, Aug. 7, kicking off a 10-episode run.

The iconic music show will once again reunite host Adam Hills with team captains Alan Brough and Myf Warhurst.

Guests this season will include Hamish Blake, Denise Scott, Dave O’Neil, Luke McGregor, Rhys Nicholson, Nath Valvo and Zoe Coombs Marr, as well as new recruits Casey Donovan, Montaigne, Emma Watkins, Dylan Alcott and Mama Alto.

In this season, host Hills will bury cryptic clues within the regular questions and games, which will reveal the episode’s “Secret Song”. Warhurst and Brough’s ability to decipher the clues could be the difference between their team winning and losing.

Existing games including Substitute, Know Your Product and Look What They’ve Done To My Song, Ma will also make a return.

Hills said the show is a joy to make and that this series is one of the best.

“As the Australian live music scene slowly gets back on its feet, we wanna give it a leg up by showcasing some of the best new musicians Australia has to offer (as well as a couple of legends thrown in for good measure),” he said. “Of course, we’ll do it all with some of the best comedians in the country.”

“Spicks and Specks” will return on ABC TV and ABC iView at 7:40 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 7.
