The Ameripolitan Awards, founded six years ago by musician Dale Watson, celebrate rockabilly, western swing, outlaw and honky-tonk music. You know, authentic music. This year’s event takes place in Memphis, TN with four days of entertainment from February 22nd through the 25th.
The event culminates in the annual awards show, this year hosted by Watson and Big Sandy. Let’s kick off the week with videos from these two beacons of, well, Ameripolitan.
