The biggest surprise of sombr's Los Angeles homecoming came late in the night. On Saturday 10 October 2026, at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, the young singer-songwriter brought out Lindsey Buckingham to play "Go Your Own Way", the song Buckingham wrote for Fleetwood Mac's 1977 album Rumours.
How it played out
Buckingham took a guitar from a tech and sang the first verse himself, then handed the second to sombr. The room, by every account we have checked, sang the choruses with them. Buckingham closed the song with a long guitar solo in the outro, the part of the record that guitar players have been trying to copy for nearly fifty years.
sombr introduced his guest as one of his biggest influences. Buckingham has spoken about the younger artist before, and the two have been linked since Buckingham handed sombr a songwriting honour earlier this year, so the pairing had been hinted at rather than sprung from nowhere.
Who is who
For readers meeting them for the first time: sombr is the singer-songwriter behind "back to friends", and he is now on a North American arena run, the You Are The Reason Tour. Lindsey Buckingham is Fleetwood Mac's guitarist and principal songwriter on much of their classic run, and he left the band in 2018. You can find the band on ADMC at /artist/fleetwood-mac and sombr at /artist/sombr.
Earlier in the same show, Jesse Rutherford of The Neighbourhood joined sombr on stage for "Sweater Weather", the 2012 track that has quietly become a rite of passage for a younger generation of indie fans. Two guest spots in one night, from two different eras of guitar music, says plenty about where sombr's taste sits.
The tour continues through the rest of the autumn. Dates and tickets are on sombr's official site.
