Josh Turner (Firecracker, Would You Go With Me) will kick off a series of concerts to raise money for lobbying efforts for the Nashville Songwriters Association International, which, basically, fights for songwriters’ rights — and money.

The first show, with Josh, happens July 22 at the Wildhorse Saloon.

The general admission tix are $20, reserved are $35, and you can also get $75 tickets that get you a meet-and-greet with Josh.

Go to Ticketmaster.com for those tix or call 615-902-8211.

I don’t have any other info on the series yet, but I’ll let ya know when I do.
