AUSTIN, Texas - Aug. 14, 2024 - The Ameripolitan Country Music Awards announced today a partnership with premier music channel AXS TV, which will broadcast the organization's two-and-a-half-hour awards special on Sunday, August 18 at 1 p.m. ET.

The special is hosted by Founder, country star, and original Ameripolitan maverick Dale Watson, and also includes all-star presentations and performances.

"We are very excited to be presenting this broadcast special featuring the best of our 2024 award show," said Watson, who Co-Founded the Awards with his wife, Celine Lee Watson. "It showcases some amazing talent and highlights the breadth and appeal of roots country music."

Awards show Executive Producer Mitchell Cohen helmed the initiative to turn the live awards show into a full broadcast special. The program recognizes Texas music legends Ray Benson (Master Award Honoree) and Texas Tornados Augie Meyers & Flaco Jiménez (Founders of The Sound Honorees). Other notable performers appearing in the special include Tammi Savoy, Brennen Leigh, Melissa Carper, Junior Brown, Reverend Horton Heat, Big Sandy, Wayne Hancock, Kelly Willis, Trevor Lake and Les Greene. 2024 Ameripolitan winners include Kaitlin Butts (Honky Tonk Female), Sterling Drake (Honky Tonk Male), and Carolyn Sills Combo (Western Swing Group), among many others.

The awards show earned a wave of positive feedback from fans and media outlets, alike, with country music-focused outlets such as The Amp and Saving Country Music characterizing Ameripolitan as "a better way forward." Additionally, a review of the awards show in The Austin Chronicle described a "sense of community spearheaded by Watson, who generated gratitude from the fans and especially the nominees."
