Sombr, who writes and produces all of his own songs, is having a breakout year. His debut album, I Barely Know Her, arrived in August and produced his first three Billboard Hot 100 hits: the top 20 singles “Back to Friends” (No. 12) and “Undressed” (No. 16), as well as “12 to 12,” which peaked at No. 41.
The musician, whose real name is Shane Boose, recently earned a Grammy nomination for best new artist. He recently wrapped the sold-out North American leg of his first-ever headlining tour, which spanned 31 shows across the U.S. and Canada. Every venue was upgraded to meet demand, with multiple cities adding extra dates, including a triumphant hometown finale in New York City.
