The most profound heartbreak we go through is never the person we’ve spent years accumulating intimacy with. It’s always the relationships that never fully formed, the lovers who died in the gray area before the connection could realize its potential. sombr’s “we never dated” grieves that very love, the person who isn’t your ex but still your ghost.
A vocal powerhouse with the ability to encapsulate pure grit, sombr is taking it to the top. The rapidly rising star was always too big for the confines of viral fame, bursting at the seams with impending stardom. His alt-pop sound is timeless and authentic, with the potential to climb the ranks among the acclaimed. Boasting over 41 million monthly Spotify listeners, the industry is seemingly preparing him to assume the slot that once belonged to the likes of Jesse Rutherford and Alex Turner.
“we never dated” is a fitting follow-up to “undressed,” honoring a through line of longing and palpable desperation. “How come we never even dated but I still find myself thinking of you daily? / Why do you always leave me aching when you were never mine for the taking?” With a chorus that boasts borderline angelic stacked harmonies, there is something so rich and addictive about this single. sombr continues to bare all in his discography, a formula that’s left an entire fandom ravenous.
As he gears up for 'The Late Nights & Young Romance Tour,' which instantly sold out across North America and Europe, it’s clear sombr is aware of his power and ready to assume his ascension. He is taking the lead in shaping a new era of indie rock, bidding farewell to TikTok fame and cementing his mainstream mark.
