Test your knowledge of sombr's biggest hits, deep cuts and iconic moments.
'back to friends' and 'undressed' are the free points. 'Caroline' and 'Through It All' are three years older than they sound, and that is where a confident run usually stops.
A teenager who left school after two lo-fi singles found an audience, then a debut album written alone and produced with a veteran. The details decide the close rounds.
This catalog does not run in the order you heard it. Start with the songs that arrived late, then work back to the 2022 recordings that were waiting all along.
'Caroline' and 'Through It All' went out in 2022 and found their audience years later. That lag is the trap: a clip that feels like recent breakout material is often three years older than the hit that made his name. Date the recording, not the fame.
The early singles keep the room they were made in. Close vocal placement, a guitar figure recorded without much space around it, almost no polish between the take and the release. That texture is a faster tell than any lyric, and it disappears the moment the album versions begin.

He wrote the ten tracks alone but produced them with Tony Berg, and the difference is audible. 'we never dated' and '12 to 12' sit in a wider frame than anything from the bedroom era. When a clip sounds like it has air around it, you are already in the album.
Play a sombr quiz on Songtrivia and find out. You name the song from a short clip and answer trivia across the bedroom singles and the album. Naming 'undressed' proves little; placing 'Caroline' in 2022 proves a lot.
The breakouts everyone streamed, 'back to friends', 'undressed' and '12 to 12', alongside the 2022 and 2023 singles that came first: 'Caroline', 'Through It All', 'Weak' and 'Would've Been You'.
The titles are the easy half. The hard half is chronology: half this catalog was recorded years before anyone heard it, so a clip that sounds current may be from 2022. Sorting the songs by year separates the fans from the listeners.
Only if you found him before 2025. 'Through It All' and 'Would've Been You' are where perfect rounds break, and telling a bedroom take from a Tony Berg mix is the skill that carries the last two points.
