Hello and thank you for your question.
The country music organization that is known for its “hat award" is
The Academy of Country Music.
Country Music Academy Awards are:
“Recognized worldwide as "Country Music's Biggest Night," the CMA
Awards represent the pinnacle of achievement for Country Music
artists, musicians, producers, publishers, songwriters, video
directors and industry executives who work in America's most popular
music genre.”
http://www.cmaawards.com/2002/history.asp
These awards are chosen “in voting by industry professional members of
the Country Music Association. Thus, award winners are honored by
their peers in the music industry. The staff of the CMA does not
participate in the voting process.”
