Britain’s Brand-New Boyband December 10 Announce Intimate Live Dates in 2026
British boyband December 10 today announce Introducing! – a series of live dates across the UK and Ireland, kicking off in Glasgow on Monday 16th February and wrapping in Dublin on Sunday 22nd February (see below for full list of dates and details). Marking their live debut, the shows will see them perform up close and personal, delivering stripped-back sets in intimate venues.
“We’ve been buzzing to get on stage and play live together. We’ve become best mates through all of this, so sharing that moment on stage, doing it in front of people for the first time, is something we’re proper excited for.” – December 10
Tickets for December 10 | Introducing! will be available to purchase from 9am on Friday 16th January at 9am HERE (for UK), and HERE for Ireland. For details of a very special fan pre-sale (from 9am on Wednesday 14th January), head to www.december10.com.
Formed on camera during Netflix’s docuseries Simon Cowell: The Next Act, (produced by Box to Box Films and Syco Entertainment, and released worldwide on 10th December 2025), December 10 were recently signed to EMI/Universal and are set to release their debut single early 2026.
The hugely fun, utterly joyful, incredibly charismatic, often rambunctious and completely endearing December 10 consists of Cruz (19), Danny (17), Hendrick (19), John (17), Josh (17), Nicolas (16) and Sean (19).
It’s unsurprising to discover that all the boys have previous music experience. Cruz played young Michael Jackson in the West End’s Motown: The Musical; Danny, who gravitated to music while struggling at school, appeared on The Voice Kids in 2023; and Nicolas represented Portugal at Junior Eurovision. Walsall’s Hendrick has been writing and performing his own music – solo and in bands – since his mid-teens; Josh built an impressive following on Instagram performing covers and original songs; Sean was in a choir and sang Soprano for the Irish National Opera in Dublin; and John, a former chorister at Rochester Cathedral, turned down a role in Paddington: The Musical to join December 10.
They’re not only ambitious but accomplished vocalists, writers and musicians, playing 14 instruments between them: Cruz leads percussion; Nicolas and Danny play guitar; Josh plays guitar and drums; Hendrick plays guitar, bass and piano; Sean plays guitar, piano and harmonica; while John was due to take Grade 8 Clarinet and Piano this year – until life got a bit busy.
December 10 is very much a boyband for our times: a truly inclusive group representing Chorley, Rochester, Dublin, London, Lisbon and Walsall, with Irish, Brazilian, Indian, Nigerian and Jamaican heritage between them. Their musical influences are just as expansive – from Fela Kuti, Daft Punk, Brent Faiyaz and Steve Lacy to Pearl Jam, Freddie Mercury, The Notorious B.I.G., Catfish and the Bottlemen, Sabrina Carpenter, Usher alongside Brazilian icons like Legião Urbana and Cazuza.
There’s a high level of lovability coursing throughout the band; they’re funny, chaotic, and very, very excited.
