Sombr Brings Addison Rae to His New Music Video

Sombr is having a moment. The New York City native is quickly emerging as the next prince of Gen Z pop. Thus, he is making it big by combining the doe-eyed sincerity of early Shawn Mendes with the theatrical edge of Matty Healy. Additionally, he brings in a listening diet that likely includes Hozier, The Beach Boys, and a crate of dusty soul vinyl.

After cracking the Top 40 with last year’s swoony breakout “back to friends,” Sombr is keeping the heat on with his latest single, “12 to 12.” And this time, he’s brought backup: none other than pop culture darling

Addison Rae. Rae stars in the track’s hazy, hypnotic music video.

Her evolution from TikTok dancer to bona fide pop icon continues to unfold.

Sombr Brings Addison Rae to Her Roots

Thus, in a new Sombr music video, she returns to her roots. Rae commands the dance floor like it’s 2020 all over again. Yet, with a sharper edge and cinematic glamour. Clad in sequins beneath a pulsing disco ball, Rae doesn’t just move to the beat. She is the beat, locking eyes and limbs with Sombr as the two spiral into a glittery, late-night fever dream.

But “12 to 12” isn’t just a vehicle for viral visuals. Sonically, it’s Sombr at his most playful and sultry. The singer delivers a cocktail of repurposed funk, grainy blues riffs, and percussive flourishes. All of it flirts with bongos and cowbells.

Additionally, his vocal range stretches from breathy falsetto to a gritty, heart-throttled growl. It channels the chaos of infatuation through every note. “In a room full of people, I look for you. Would you avoid me or would you look for me too?” he pleads. It’s the kind of track made for sweaty summer nights. Not quite disco, not quite blues, but something humid and restless in between.

With his “Late Nights & Young Romance Tour” winding its way toward an October finale in Los Angeles, Sombr is making it clear. He’s not just the new “it boy.” He’s building a whole cinematic universe of love, longing, and glitter. And Addison Rae? She might just be its leading lady.
