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.

A brilliant songwriter and innovative producer, Gordie Sampson is no stranger to the music scene. Raised in the community of Big Pond (pop. 47), near the rugged, edge-of-the-world coastlines of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Sampson’s songwriting has taken him across the globe. But besides the island he hails from, there might be no place in his story more important than Nashville, Tennessee, where he lives now with his family. He moved to Music City in 2005, and in less than a year Carrie Underwood had recorded his own “Jesus, Take The Wheel,” which wound up at number one on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for six weeks in a row and won Gordie a Grammy for Best Country Song of the Year. Since then, Sampson’s songs have been cut by a long list of established artists that includes Florida Georgia Line, Luke Bryan, Rascal Flatts, Hunter Hayes and Scott Helman and by young up-and-comers like Carly Pearce,Caylee Hammack and Tenille Townes.
