Cruz Beckham Honors Father David in New Music Video Teaser
Cruz Beckham, the 20-year-old son of football legend David Beckham, has released a touching tribute to his father in the teaser for his upcoming single 'For Your Love'. The young musician, who performs with his band The Breakers, unveiled the intro to the track, which includes a playful reference to his dad's favourite East London eatery.
A Sweet Nod to Family Traditions
In a recent interview, Cruz opened up about his father's influence, stating, "He is in one of the music videos. He is a great human and he was in a band when he was younger." He added, "He taught me about the Beatles. He's still got it but he doesn't gig anymore." The teaser showcases Cruz and his bandmates inside Tony's Traditional Pie and Mash Shop in East London, a spot David has frequently praised for its classic dishes.
The video snippet depicts the group meeting with a music executive attempting to take over their creative ideas, before the release date flashes on screen. This restaurant holds special significance for the Beckham family, being a place close to David's heart.
The Formation of The Breakers
Cruz also shared insights into how his band came together. "We met through my girlfriend, Jackie Apostel, she’s a songwriter, at a gig at The Ned," he explained. "I’ve always wanted to be part of a band. When I was in the studio on my own, it felt like something was missing. Singing and playing music with these talented lads is just amazing."
Expressing his passion for music, Cruz said, "We’re living the dream right now, we just want to keep playing music. We want to put a smile on people’s faces, people need that right now." He reflected on his musical upbringing, noting, "I’ve always listened to music from bands growing up. Singing and playing with these guys is just amazing."
Family Connections and Personal Reflections
The tribute extends beyond his father, as Cruz also mentioned his grandfather Tony Adams, Victoria Beckham's father, who played in a band during his youth. This musical heritage seems to inspire Cruz's own artistic journey.
This release comes amid reported tensions with his older brother, Brooklyn Beckham. Last week, Cruz shared a nostalgic gallery of childhood photos with his siblings, including Brooklyn, set to Billy Joel's 'The River of Dreams'—a song with lyrics about searching for something lost, subtly hinting at reconciliation.
Despite this gesture, Brooklyn has remained focused on his wife Nicola Peltz, sharing affectionate posts and Valentine's Day preparations on social media. Cruz's teaser blends nostalgia with a fresh start, as he honors his family while forging his own path in the music industry.
