A Nashville fundraising concert featuring Dave Matthews and others is being sponsored by the Natural Resources Defense Council to fight mountaintop mining in Appalachia.

The May 19 concert at the Ryman Auditorium, dubbed Music Saves Mountains, will also include performances by Emmylou Harris, Patty Griffin, Buddy Miller, Patty Loveless and Kathy Mattea.

A news release Friday announcing the concert and lineup said net proceeds will go to pass laws to end the practice. Tickets cost $45, $75 and $95.
