Sombr

A New York City-native raised on the Lower East Side, sombr—born Shane Boose—started making music in his bedroom while studying classical music as a student at the prestigious public school, LaGuardia High School. His breakout hit “Caroline” (2022) took the internet by storm, and he has since released a series of EPs and singles - all self-written and co-produced by the artist himself - that has propelled him to 500 million monthly streams across platforms. In August of 2025, he released his debut full-length album I Barely Know Her [Warner Records] which landed at #1 in Spotify’s Global Albums Chart and features the three Billboard Hot 100 hits “back to friends,” “undressed” and “12 to 12.” “undressed” took the #1 spot at Alternative Radio faster than any new artist of the last decade, while “back to friends” has crossed 1 BILLION streams and earned sombr his first Video Music Award for “Best Alternative.” With “12 to 12” following in the same footsteps, sombr took the #1 spot on the Hot 100 Songwriters Chart for 5 straight weeks. Now based in Los Angeles, sombr is currently on his sold-out world tour, playing his first arena shows and upgraded venues to accommodate demand, winding across North America before he heads to Australia in December and Europe and the U.K. in the spring of 2026.
