RELEASE DATE: 6/20/25
DESCRIPTION:
William Beckmann is drawn to things that have stories
to tell: historic buildings, old guitars, the vintage
typewriter on which he writes all of his lyrics. And if you
call the Texas singer-songwriter an “old soul,” the 28-
year-old will take it as a compliment. Beckmann — a
thrilling vocalist who sings in both English and Spanish
— has been recording and performing a type of vibrant,
modern-day country music that also pays tribute to
what came before. Hailing from the small border town
of Del Rio, TX, William Beckmann was raised on classic
country as well as the mariachi and Norteño sounds of
northern Mexico. His 2022 album Faded Memories
features the slow-burn single “Bourbon Whiskey,” the
mesmerizing cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “I’m On Fire,”
and the haunting “In The Dark.” The album garnered
praise from critics including American Songwriter,
Billboard, CMT and more. 2023’s album Here’s To You,
Here’s To Me included the fan-favorite, “Tennessee
Drinkin,’” and was Beckmann’s fifth consecutive song to
hit Top 20 on the Texas Regional Radio Chart. He has
spent the last year touring with artists including Parker
McCollum, Hank Williams Jr., Charley Crockett, and the
Randy Rogers Band in addition to selling out five of his
own shows at the legendary Gruene Hall and
headlining Billy Bob’s Texas. In the Spring of 2023,
Beckmann made his Grand Ole Opry debut and one
year later he signed a record deal with Warner Music
Nashville.
