Amber in El Paso

El Paso Public Forum

My name is Amber Banda and I work with iHeart radio. As part of my job I get to interview country artsts and other celebrities like comedians, mediums, local celebs, and more. However I'd like a place where I can add more "colorful comentary" with all sorts of people and just shoot the shit. I'm fairly new to his but you gotta start somewhwere, so come along for the ride and get to know about me, my city, guests I have on, being a female biker and child advocate, my dancing journey, talk about my recovery from an eating disorder and body dysmorphia, my plastic surgeries, my obsession with Invader Zim, tattoos, Harry Potter, being a closet introvert, being a mom of 2 girls with an equally crazy biker husband, and most importantly, my uncensored opinions. Time to make bets on how long it takes me to get cancelled. . Instagram: Amber_Banda915 Facebook: Amber Banda TikTok: amberbanda915

    William Beckmann interview

    Amber Banda interview with William Beckmann! . When I first heard William's voice, my first thought was John Denver. Originally from Del Rio, TX, Willam Beckmann knows what it's like to come from a bordertown and has taken that influence to Nashville! It is very cool to talk to a country artist who grew up in a Bordertown very similiar and close to El Paso with Mexican-American heritage and who has taken that to the country music capital of the world. Country, mariachi and norteno music has not only influenced his music but his style as well. Example being the video of his cover of Vicente Fernandez's "Volver Volver" at the Grand Ol Opry going viral, and wearing bandolero jackets during performances where he includes a song or two in Spanish. . I talk with William about his family in El Paso, opening up for Midland here Oct 2, we go over some Spanish words together, talk about his musical style and influences, and I do a round of rapid fire questions with him including questions like his favorite sports team and what country artist would he bring back from the dead to play 1 gig.  . His latest album "Whiskey, Lies and Alibis" is out now, with my two personal favorite songs from the album being "Borderline Crazy" and " Por Mujeres Como Tu."  . DO NOT miss him opening up for Midland here in the Sun City Thursday, October 2nd at the Cowtown Event Center! Tickets on sale now at splendidsunproductions.com, or sign up to win tickets at KHEY.com. I also have a Midland ticket giveaway on my personal social media. https://www.williambeckmann.com/ .
