After a 15-month hiatus, CRUZ has returned with a bang, unleashing their highly anticipated single ‘Play The Game‘.

From the first note, ‘Play The Game ‘ delivers exactly what fans have come to expect from CRUZ: electrifying energy, infectious melodies, and impeccable musicianship. The band’s strong, dynamic vocals leap out of the speakers, complemented by some truly impressive drumming and guitar work. The rhythm section hits hard and tight, propelling the track forward with relentless momentum, while the guitar riffs are sharp, catchy, and full of grit.

Since their debut, CRUZ has brought a breath of fresh air to the indie guitar music scene. Their ability to ignite a crowd is unparalleled, and ‘Play The Game‘ captures that same electric intensity, translating it into a track that’s as contagious as it is thrilling.

The buzz surrounding CRUZ has only grown stronger in recent months. They’ve sold out headline shows, graced major festival stages like the Isle of Wight Festival and YNot? Festival, and supported bands like The View. Their packed-out show at Sheffield’s renowned The Leadmill in September 2024 only confirmed their status as one of the UK’s best up-and-coming indie bands.

Their raw talent, undeniable chemistry, and relentless drive are only going to take them further in 2025. ‘Play the Game’ is available now across all streaming platforms.
