William Beckmann Releases New Single

William Beckmann has released his new single You Only Love To Break My Heart through Gatsby Records/MCA. Beckmann wrote the song with Jessie Jo Dillon and producer Konrad Snyder. The music features a Latin-influenced groove, salsa percussion, Mexican instruments and guitar.

Beckmann described the song as being about a character who is used by a woman who loves him and accepts this despite her games. For the visual world of the song, he said he thought of Salma Hayek and Antonio Banderas in the film Desperado. The music video shows Beckmann performing among deep red backgrounds, dramatic shadows and vintage film effects.

Beckmann will perform at Mercury Lounge in New York City on September 27 and will join various dates of Kacey Musgraves’ Middle of Nowhere Tour in October. He previously appeared as a support act at concerts by Tucker Wetmore and Musgraves.

Someday helped Beckmann reach a wider audience. His major-label debut album, Whiskey Lies & Alibis, was released in 2025 and includes a Spanish-language version of Pepe Aguilar’s Por Mujeres Como Tú. Beckmann has also worked with Carter Faith twice, with Lay Your Heartache Onto Mine appearing on the official Paramount+ Landman (Volume II) soundtrack album.
