SOMBR

Who is sombr?

Sombr is the voice of a new generation aching to feel something real. Born Shane Boose, the 19-year-old singer-songwriter and producer blends aching vulnerability with atmospheric indie-pop, carving a sonic space that feels as intimate as a whispered secret and as expansive as a dream.

Raised in the artistic pulse of New York City and classically trained at LaGuardia High School, Sombr’s roots run deep, yet his sound refuses to be boxed in. His music, often self-produced in late-night solitude, carries the weight of classical discipline wrapped in the lo-fi textures of modern heartbreak. Whether it’s the gentle unraveling of “Undressed” or the aching honesty of “Back to Friends,” Sombr writes like he’s lived ten lives and sings like he’s still feeling every one of them.

With over 25 million monthly listeners and a global fanbase that clings to every lyric, Sombr’s rise has been swift but never manufactured. He’s not chasing the spotlight, he’s chasing truth. His melodies simmer with quiet intensity, and his lyrics linger long after the final note fades.
