Emerging artist and Texas native William Beckmann received an exciting video call from fellow Texan and friend Parker McCollum recently inviting him to make his Grand Ole Opry debut on March 3. A visibly shaken Beckmann offered his gratitude to McCollum for all the support thus far.
“When Beckmann first performed for us, we were spellbound by the richness of his vocal and the classic beauty of his songs,” says Jordan Petit, Artist Relations & Programming Strategy at Opry Entertainment Group. “We are excited to see him step onto the Opry stage & join a history where so many vocal giants have performed.”
“Performing on the Grand Ole Opry stage is every country singer’s dream and I am beyond excited to finally have my chance to play there," says an emotional Beckmann. "I grew up in a small town in Texas and have so many friends and family who will be coming to cheer me on. To feel the love and support from both the Opry and my hometown is something I am beyond grateful for.”
His debut will follow a performance at the Ryman Auditorium’s Texas Independence Day Celebration with Pat Green and Randy Rogers Band the night prior.
This exciting news comes on the heels of a successful 2022 for the bilingual Beckmann. Late last year, he wrapped his Las Posadas Tour: Hope for Uvalde that sold out nine shows in ten days across Texas raising over $50,000 for Matthew and Camila McConaughey’s Just Keep Livin’ Foundation’s Uvalde Relief Fund.
“We are grateful to William for his generosity in giving back to Uvalde through his tour,” says McConaughey. “The money he was able to raise will make a big impact in the services the just keep livin Foundation is providing to this community.”
“Looking back on 2022, the Las Posadas tour is probably what I’ll remember the most. I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to help a community in need," says Beckmann. "Especially when that community is one I know well. I want to thank all the people who helped me organize the tour and of course all the fans who came out to support it.”
Beckmann’s current single “Damn This Heart Of Mine” currently sits inside the Top 20 on Texas Radio Charts and continues to climb. New music from his forthcoming album will be released this spring.
