What Is The Silver Dollar Award?
The Silver Dollar Award is a special honorary recognition presented by the Honky Tonk Music Association to help name the next new 2026 Queen of Honky Tonk Music.
This award was created in honorary tribute to legendary international country music artist Philomena Begley, whose performance of “Queen of the Silver Dollar” helped inspire the spirit of this recognition.
The Honky Tonk Music Association only recently became aware of Philomena Begley’s remarkable legacy, and this award was created to honor that discovery while opening the spotlight to artists around the world who may not have received the same recognition as larger commercial artists.
Contestants are competing for honorary HTMA crown recognition and the opportunity to be considered for the title of 2026 Queen of Honky Tonk Music, along with other approved HTMA genre crown recognitions.
The Silver Dollar Award and NOW WILL YOU SING FOR ME? represent the only official competitive selection process currently recognized by the Honky Tonk Music Association for honorary HTMA crown consideration connected to the title of 2026 Queen of Honky Tonk Music and related HTMA genre crown recognitions.
The Honky Tonk Music Association does not seek artist conflict, artist elimination television drama, or artist exploitation. This event was created to celebrate musical storytelling, emotional interpretation, authenticity, and to help give deserving artists from around the world an opportunity to shine in the spotlight.
All selected finalists and honorees may be invited to perform at the official HTMA Grand Opening Ceremony and may receive honorary HTMA Crown recognition.
