Robertson, who had eight of her songs make the Australian Songwriting Association top 30 in 2019, will perform at Nikki's Cafe on William from 7pm.
Robertson is also new to Bathurst, having moved from Cowra.
"I've been here for six months. I had been at Cowra for 30 years," she said.
"We moved here because we liked it and because my husband was working in Lithgow."
She is set to perform a mix of covers on Saturday, as well as songs from her most recent album Little Country Life, recorded at Simon Johnson's Hillbilly Hut on the Central Coast and released in 2018.
The title track of her latest album hit number one on the Australian Country Track Charts and was a semi-finalist in the Tamworth Songwriter's Association Awards 2018 in the country rock section.
Her most recent gig came back at a muster up at Macksville earlier this year, a weekend before the restrictions came into place due to the coronavirus pandemic.
To book a table at Nikki's Cafe this Saturday, call the Italian restaurant on 0404 879 069.
