William Beckmann & The Roots of Del Rio

In the final episode of The Sound of Texas, we travel south to Del Rio, TX to discover the inspiring landscapes and enduring charm of South Texas. We enlist hometown hero William Beckmann as our guide, an emerging country artist whose timeless sound and style embody the spirit of the region.

We meet up with William at Val Verde Winery, one of the state’s oldest wineries and a forerunner of Texas wine country. We move to the iconic Julio’s Corn Tortilla Chips & Restaurant, where we see how one of Texas’ most beloved salsa vessels is made, and William shares his Tex-Mex hot take. We wrap at Gin House Jazz Club to hear from William about the inspiration behind his sound and how the state’s rich music culture keeps producing legends.
