Flatland Cavalry
Critically acclaimed country-roots six-piece Flatland Cavalry has blazed their own trail on the Americana and country music circuit, sharing their hearty brand of homespun tunes the world over – easy on the ears, heavy on the heart.
The “straightforward, upbeat electrified country-rock band” (Wall Street Journal) continue with relentless momentum on their journey from the heart of West Texas to the center of country culture, earning a myriad of outstanding accolades along the way: seven #1 singles at Texas Country Radio, back-to-back nominations for ACM Group of the Year, syncs across TV and film including Twisters, The
Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, Paramount’s “Yellowstone” and “Landman,” and Netflix’s “The Ranch,” and well over 1 billion streams worldwide.
Whether it’s been hot-trotting in a 12-passenger van, caravanning on colossal treks with Willie Nelson, Luke Combs, and Lainey Wilson, or headlining their own months-long tours with a Who’s Who of historic
venue sellouts along the way, Flatland Cavalry remains “at the fore of the red dirt renaissance” (Rolling Stone).
With their debut single to country radio, “Never Comin’ Back,” spinning nationwide now, Flatland Cavalry continues to broaden their own sonic horizons while keeping a clear, firm grasp on their foundational and endearing sound. Flatland Cavalry is Cleto Cordero (vocals, acoustic guitar), Jason
Albers (drums, percussion), Jonathan Saenz (bass, background vocals), Reid Dillon (electric guitar), Wesley Hall (fiddle), and Adam Gallegos (piano, organ, keys, mandolin, banjo, acoustic guitar, Wurlitzer, Mellotron). Based in both Texas and Nashville, the band just released their fifth studio album, Work of Heart

William Beckmann
Making modern country music with a refined edge, William Beckmann embodies timeless, sophisticated swagger, with songs built for the mainstream, but also built to last. With his first major label album, Whiskey Lies & Alibis, the young Texas native joins a retro revival in the modern format’s core, and pushes it further down the road. A student of the classics – from classic country to classic pop, classic rock, and even classic mariachi – Beckmann grew up in the border town of Del Rio, Texas, enamored with the classic cool of Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, and Frank Sinatra, plus the Eagles, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, George Strait, and the traditional Mexican music of his bilingual roots. Developing a deep, dark-honey baritone with natural vibrato, he first found a foothold on the Texas tour circuit, dressed to kill and with a timeless sound to match. Co-writing eight of 12 songs with elite hit makers such as Jessie Jo Dillion, Jesse Frasure, and Rhett Akins, Beckmann’s neo-classic signature is clear on Whiskey Lies & Alibis. With an organic sound defined by dusky baritone guitars and pedal steel, plus a rumbling, resonate vocal, it captures the vast loneliness of a windblown desert landscape, and the throbbing pulse of a honky tonk with equal power. And central to each track, lies the bitter sting of lost love. After playing more than 100 shows a year since 2022, Beckmann now returns to the road with a bold mission in mind: Not just to cosplay the classic country style, but to bring its values back, with head held high.
