Few new artists get to experience a rise as rapid as sombr. At just 20 years old, Shane Michael Boose has quickly gone from recording in GarageBand to amassing more than 50 million monthly listeners and turning singles like “12 to 12”, “Undressed” and “Back to Friends” into generational anthems. At a time when most pop records are crowded with endless collaborators, sombr’s uncompromising creative vision sets him apart. Every track on his debut album “I Barely Know Her” is written and produced by himself. The result is a ten-track record that leaps from darker indie textures into disco-infused pop, with hooks built for both headphones and main stages.  With one of this year’s biggest breakthroughs behind him and an upcoming sold-out show at Stockholm’s Annexet in February, Sombr arrives at Way Out West ready to confirm his place as one of indie pop’s defining new voices.
