Cruz Beckham and The Breakers: The Son of Famous Parents Who Wins You Over with His Guitar
Cruz Beckham and The Breakers are also coming to Pohoda 2027. Despite his famous surname, the 21-year-old singer, guitarist and songwriter from London is building a musical identity of his own. His music moves between indie rock, psychedelia and Britpop, and he openly draws on the legacy of The Beatles. After his first sold-out shows, festival appearances and the release of his debut EP Wear & Tear, he'll now play Pohoda 2027.

The whole world knows the Beckham name. Cruz is the youngest son of football legend David Beckham and singer and fashion designer Victoria Beckham, who rose to fame with the Spice Girls. So music runs in the family, but he's following his own path. He's been writing since he was eleven and, by his own account, has more than a thousand songs tucked away. His biggest inspiration comes from a lineage of legendary British artists, chief among them The Beatles, whom Cruz is practically a scholar of.
Everything clicked when he started working with producers Justin Raisen and Lewis Pesacov. After his first singles, OPTICS and LICK THE TOAD, he released For Your Love in 2026, the track that became his eureka moment and helped him find his own musical direction. In August 2026, he followed it with his debut EP Wear & Tear (2026). He picked its six tracks based on feedback and conversations with fans at his shows. Cruz Beckham's music blends 1960s psychedelic pop, 1990s Britpop swagger and guitar-driven indie rock.
But it's on stage that he really shows what he's made of. His first live shows were a series of unannounced sets under different aliases, supporting The Royston Club. In February 2026, he and The Breakers set off on their debut headline European tour, which ended with three sold-out nights at The Courtyard Theatre in London. In summer 2026, the band made their UK festival debuts at Reading & Leeds and played Rock N Roll Circus with The Kooks. In the autumn, they opened for The Reytons at Co-op Live in Manchester, one of the UK's biggest arenas.
At Pohoda 2027, you can look forward to a young musician who's already proving there's much more to him than a famous surname.
