At 14 years old, Shane became Sombr via a make-shift recording studio in his bedroom funded by a summer of scooping ice cream. The now 17 year old honed his talents at New York’s LaGuardia High, the public performing arts school celebrated for inspiring the film Fame, spending his days studying classical music and nights invested in his bedroom studio. While other high school juniors obsessed over driving tests or dates, Sombr recorded romantic indie-rock melodies while trawling for like-minded musicians to sign to his label. When COVID hit, creating music became an escape for the young artist from the physical and social isolation brought on by the pandemic - all leading Sombr to launch his own major label imprint while his single “Caroline” earned over a million listens within its first week. Still, the artist project Sombr remains the most passionate about is his own, and rightly so. TikTok sensation “Caroline” has become a sad girl anthem — populating Zillennial playlists across Spotify. Informed by the alt-pop greats – from Bon Iver to Phoebe Bridgers – the singer-songwriter’s newer releases are certain to cement the artist’s ascension, though Sombr says he’d be happy enough with a “timeless alternative project.”
