sombr is one of 2025’s biggest stories in Music. The 20-year-old Singer-Songwriter from New York City has been fiddling around on GarageBand since elementary school and now is a major force to be reckoned with, providing the Soundtrack to the Summer with smash hits like “back to friends” and “undressed“. To date, his debut album “i barely know her” already has amassed 1.7 billion streams on Spotify alone – many of those coming from me!
My love connection with sombr‘s music came instantly a few months back, hearing “back to friends” on SiriusXM and I’ve been obsessed ever since. waiting eagerly for the physical release of his acclaimed, cohesive album, coming November 7, 2025 via Warner Music.
sombr played a sold-our show at The Phoenix tonight, giving the tenured venue a much-needed profile boost. In-town supporting him were his parents Andy and Bennah, whom he was spotted out and about with earlier in the day. The statuesque sombr took a moment for photos and autographs with fans – he is that carefree, cool, fun spirit we imagined through our many repeated plays of his music.
We’re so thrilled to have met this musical genius and cannot wait to see what’s next. Adore sombr!
