Just days away from turning twenty, and sombr has captured the attention of music fans across the globe. The "undressed" artist recently joined us for an Audacy Check In, where he told Julia about the making of his latest hit, and touched on his other life as a chef.

Shane Boose is a 19-year-old singer, songwriter, and producer from New York City, who exploded onto the scene this year with two massive songs, "back to friends," and "undressed." The latter of which continues to climb the Billboard Hot 100.

"I created it in my home studio in Los Angeles," sombr says of "undressed," first making the the beat and then writing over it. "Once the song was fully written and partially produced, I brought it into Sound City Studios with my collaborator, Tony Berg, and we finished up that production and and kind of realized we made something really special and put it out."

The song is just the latest music milestone for sombr, who has been involved in creating music for as long as he can remember. "My earliest memories are music," he reveals. "Since I was growing up there were always instruments around the house. I was writing songs, even no matter how bad they were and it was just always a part of me."

"My dad plays guitar and piano, and he's a pretty good singer, and his dad, Is a singer as well," he adds. "It's in my bones."

Away from music, sombr has hobbies just like any other 19-year-old, but his probably taste better than yours. "I did 3 years of culinary school, so yeah, I'm pretty good at cooking," he admits. "I'm a nocturnal creature."

His signature dish? Ratatouille. His inspiration? "I learned from culinary school," he laughs, "but mad respect to the movie though."
