Live Performance DVD Secures No. 1 Spot on Both Billboard’s Music Video and Christian Music Video Chart
Turner to Return to Nashville’s Historic Ryman Auditorium for Back-to-Back Opry Performances

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Nov. 05, 2018) – Josh Turner’s I Serve A Savior earned debut placements across multiple charts, including No. 1 on Nielsen’s Country Albums Chart and No. 2 on both Billboard’s Top Country Albums Chart and Top Christian Albums Chart. The complementing live performance DVD also secured the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s Music Video Chart and Christian Music Video Chart. Praise for the faith-filled project continues to pour in with Worship Musician calling the album “musically brilliant, yet refreshingly restive” and Music Row applauding the singer’s “earthen baritone.”

“This project was truly a dream come true,” commented Turner. “It’s something I have wanted to do for a long time. God opened the door and I walked through it. When I look back, this will be one of my favorite projects of my career.”

I Serve A Savior marks Turner’s first appearance on Billboard‘s Christian charts, but is the eighth top ten appearance on Billboard‘s Top Country Albums Chart for the multi-platinum-selling singer.

Adding a new dimension to the GRAMMY® nominee’s already-acclaimed career, the faith-based collection produced by Kenny Greenburg includes hand-picked hymns, alongside brand-new originals and live recordings of some of Turner’s most memorable hits including “Me and God” and “Long Black Train.” A portion of the 90-minute live performance DVD released in addition to the project will continue to air this fall on numerous networks throughout the U.S. and Canada.

On the heels of his release, Turner will be returning to Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium for back-to-back Opry performances tomorrow, Nov. 06, at 7:00PM CT, and again at 9:30PM CT. As one of the youngest members inducted into the Grand Ole Opry, Turner will be performing songs off his latest project. For tickets and more information, go to www.opry.com.

With his latest, I Serve A Savior, Turner adds an exciting new dimension to his already-acclaimed career.

I Serve A Savior is a thoughtful gospel collection that finds Turner’s rich, distinctive baritone paired with timeless classics including “Amazing Grace,” “How Great Thou Art” and “Great Is Your Faithfulness,” as well as introducing originals including the title track, “I Serve A Savior,” and “The River (of Happiness),” written by his wife, Jennifer, and their eldest son, Hampton.

Turner is a disciple of traditional country music, a mentor to up-and-coming artists and one of the youngest members of the Grand Ole Opry. Turner has been an Opry member for over 10 years and he recently reveled in his 150th performance on the famed Opry circle.

As a high school student, Turner had very little access to music education, therefore realizes first-hand the importance of arts education in schools.
