\n\tIntroduced by a gushing-if-somewhat-off-kilter Megan Statler, the alt-rock singer-songwriter began his performance singing inside a photo booth, before coming out to what looked a dingy New York rock club backing. He performed the first verses and choruses to breakout hit \u201cBack to Friends\u201d with his band, before disappearing back into the booth.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen he re-emerged, he was in full strut for a rendition of latest single \u201c12 to 12.\u201d \u201cThis one\u2019s for the girls that get it,\u201d he began the performance. And there were plenty of (presumably) such girls present on stage for his performance, one of which licked him from chest to face, and several of which swarmed him during the song\u2019s instrumental breakdown section, as the rest of the stage went full disco. It was an eye-opening performance for the first-timer, showing an impressive amount of star power for a relatively new performer. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBack to Friends\u201d marked Sombr\u2019s first Billboard Hot 100 hit, reaching No. 30 on the chart so far. \u201c12 to 12\u201d hit a new peak of No. 60 on the listing this week, with the release of the full I Barely Know Her<\/em>, which debuted at No. 14 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. Sombr was nominated for three awards at this year\u2019s VMAs, winning best alternative for \u201cBack to Friends\u201d \u2014 his first such win on the show. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
