Cruz Beckham, the 20-year-old son of David and Victoria Beckham, has announced a major step in his musical journey: a one-night-only concert in London with his band, The Breakers. The move signals the official launch of his career as a recording artist.
From Secret Gigs to a London Stage
Taking to Instagram on Saturday, Cruz shared the news with his followers after completing a series of 15 unannounced shows across the UK. He posted a video montage of his performances, teasing the upcoming event with the caption: "Now it may be time to officially invite you to one night of fairly decent music." He confirmed the show would be under the banner 'Cruz Beckham & The Breakers' and promised a full announcement on Monday, adding mysteriously, "Something will be on Monday."
Building a Professional Sound
This launch follows years of preparation. Cruz's career began at just 11, with the Beckham family reportedly investing a small fortune to help him develop his sound with top-tier songwriters. His professional network has grown significantly. Last year, he struck up a friendship with The Kooks frontman Luke Pritchard, who expressed eagerness to help him navigate the industry.
In a strategic move, Cruz recently signed with the prestigious management company C3, known for working with acts like The Strokes and Thirty Seconds To Mars. A source indicated this aligns with his evolving rock-oriented direction, stating, "Playing live is going to be a big part of the roll-out of his music."
Collaborations and Musical Development
Behind the scenes, Cruz has been working with an impressive roster of talent. This includes writer Ed Drewett, who has multiple No.1 singles for acts like Little Mix and One Direction. He has also collaborated with producer Fred Ball (Rihanna, Beyoncé) and engineer Joe Rubel (Ed Sheeran).
A multi-instrumentalist, Cruz plays guitar, piano, drums, and even the mandolin. He released a festive single in 2016 and has since been focused on "just making the music I love." His commitment was evident last year when he performed with a rock band in Miami, around the time he was previously signed to TaP Music Management.
With a major London show now on the horizon and a powerful team behind him, Cruz Beckham is poised to step out of his parents' shadow and into the spotlight on his own musical terms.
