Sombr Surprises Riders with Pop-up Performance at New York City Subway Station
The New York native sang his hit for commuters and fans, with backup singers and a keyboardist joining the impromptu set at the busy transit hub.
On Thursday, singer-songwriter Sombr surprised commuters with an impromptu performance at the 14th Street-Union Square subway station in New York. The 21-year-old artist sang his hit "My Body Isn't Ready" with a keyboardist and backup singers.
A New York native, Sombr told the Metropolitan Transportation Authority he grew up riding the subway. The surprise performance occurred during a day off from his ongoing "You Are the Reason" arena tour.
Dozens of fans crowded the Manhattan transit hub to watch the performance. After the set, Sombr flashed a thumbs-up and offered a simple message: "Keep taking the subway."
Police escorted the singer out of the Union Square station as a throng of fans followed, hoping for photos and final interactions. The artist ignored the noise and smiled before departing.
The singer performs in St. Louis on Friday and Kansas City, Missouri, on Halloween. He concludes the North American leg of his tour on November 23 with a scheduled appearance at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
