A spectator at Reading spoke about the family presence at the venue. A concertgoer told the Daily Mail: "They are all there listening and supporting Cruz and Victoria has been embracing David affectionately while watching."

EP Release and Headline Tour

The festival appearances coincided with the official release of the new Wear & Tear EP by Cruz and The Breakers. The five-track project includes the songs Better Times, WANNABE, Seeing Red, Loneliest Boy, and Wear & Tear.

Cruz explained that the EP captures "a life lived" and reflects the highs, lows, and learning curves of personal experience. He expressed hope that the songs convey shared human emotions regardless of individual background.

Speaking about the themes of the record, Cruz said: "We've been high, and low, in love and in pain, jealous, upset - we've lived and learned. We've all got our wear and tear."

The festival slots follow a busy live schedule for the band. In early 2026, Cruz and The Breakers launched their debut headline tour, titled The For Your Love Tour, performing sold-out concerts across the UK and Europe before embarking on a summer leg in North America.
