(hrpr) sombr has debuted at the top of Spotify's Global Debut Albums chart with his highly anticipated album I Barely Know Her, released via Warner Records on August 22. Continuing his momentous rise, the 10-track debut features Billboard Hot 100 hits "back to friends," "undressed" and "12 to 12," each continuing to climb the charts including Top 40 Radio, Global and U.S. Spotify Charts, the UK Official Singles Chart, as well as Alternative Radio where he peaked at #1 faster than any new artist of the last decade, also taking the #1 spot at Billboard Hot Rock & Alternative Songs following Billie Eilish's year long run.
Due to unprecedented demand, sombr announced last week upgraded venues for the majority of the North American tour dates. Tickets went on sale the following day, and all 119,000 new tickets sold out almost instantly. The upgrades include two nights at New York City's Rooftop at Pier 17 and two nights at Los Angeles' Shrine Expo Hall, in addition to previously sold out dates at The Fonda in LA and NY's Brooklyn Steel.
I Barely Know Her was written entirely by sombr and co-produced by the 20-year-old artist alongside esteemed, legendary producer Tony Berg (Phoebe Bridgers, The Replacements), and follows news of him making his award show debut at the MTV Video Music Awards, performing live from New York on September 7, where he is nominated for Best New Artist, Best Alternative for "back to friends," and Song of Summer for "12 to 12." MTV also announced sombr as their Global PUSH Artist for the month of September.
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, climbing to over 400 million monthly streams across platforms. Now based in Los Angeles, sombr continues to explore young romance and heartbreak through his music-all of which is self-written and co-produced by the artist himself, and released via Warner Records.
