GUITAR fan Cruz Beckham is on course to become the new Slash — after signing with a top management team who look after rockers.
Cruz, 19, is busy honing his new sound and has hopes of emulating the Guns N’ Roses axe-man with C3, who steered US indie heavyweights The Strokes.
Insiders confirmed Cruz has left TaP Music Management, which looked after pop acts including Dua Lipa, to focus on a “more guitar-led organic sound”.
Cruz — Victoria, and David’s youngest son — is working with studio producers to refine his sound.
A source said: “His move from TaP was amicable but he’s signed with C3 who manage rock bands like Thirty Seconds to Mars and Modest Mouse.
“They are more in line with where his music is evolving.
“Playing live is going to be a big part of the roll-out of his music and Cruz and his new team want to be sure it’s perfect before he launches.”
Guitar “obsessive” Cruz began his music career in 2016 at 11 years old and in 2021 he worked with Richard “Biff” Stannard who wrote a string of hits for the Spice Girls in the 1990s.
He signed with TaP in 2022 and last year performed at The Lore of the Land pub in Marylebone, Central London, stunning punters.
Victoria filmed him playing guitar and singing in the crowded bar.
