Joseph Anthony Somers-Morales (born September 11, 1987), known professionally as SoMo, is an American singer/songwriter from Denison, Texas. He began his professional music career in 2011, gaining recognition on YouTube with the release of original music and popular cover songs and renditions from singers such as Chris Brown, The Weeknd, and Drake. In 2013, he signed a record deal with Republic Records, and released remastered versions of his 2012 mixtape My Life and debut single "Ride". His self-titled debut album SoMo was released on April 8, 2014. He has followed that debut project with the release of another installment of his mixtape series, My Life II, as well as his second studio album, entitled The Answers, which was released on March 17, 2017 via Republic Records. After a national headline tour in support of his sophomore album, SoMo dove back into the studio and promptly released My Life III independently, thus signaling the self-proclaimed "beginning of a new SoMo era". This was followed by his third album A Beautiful November on November 30, 2018.

In 2009, SoMo started recording covers in Denton, Texas. A successful 2011 mash-up of Drake's Take Care led a massive draw to his YouTube channel, which has garnered 300M+ views on the platform. Throughout 2012, SoMo began to work on original music. His efforts in the studio yielded the independent debut mixtape My Life, merging RandB spirit with pop soul and showcasing his voice and songwriting. The mixtape was released for free on his birthday, September 11, 2013. Simultaneously, he released a new cover video every Sunday as part of his "SoMo Sunday" campaign.

Struck by the success of SoMo's independent national tour, Republic Records partnered with him in October 2013. Following the re-release of his single "Ride" in November 2013, the song peaked at #76 on the Billboard Hot 100. On February 12, 2014, SoMo announced the release date of his self-titled debut album, "SoMo", set for April 8, 2014.


On September 11, 2015, his 28th birthday, SoMo released My Life II, a sequel to his mixtape My Life.

Prior to his second studio album, SoMo released the singles "Control" on May 1, 2016, "First" on August 5, 2016, and "Play" featuring Maty Noyes on January 27, 2017.

On February 10, 2017, SoMo announced that his second album would be titled The Answers, and would be released on March 17, 2017. The album was made available to pre-order that same day, with a new song titled "Just a Man". The second promotional single, "Champion", was released on March 3, 2017. The album's third and final promotional single, "Want It", was released on March 10, 2017.

On September 11, 2017, his 30th birthday, SoMo released My Life III, which he describes as the beginning of a new SoMo era. This mixtape was released independently via the SoMo, LLC imprint and continues to be bolstered by the ongoing success of the lead single, "For You".

On Christmas Day 2017, SoMo released a new single titled "50 Feet", and another single, "Wake up Call", was released a week later on New Year's Day 2018.

On February 12, 2018, SoMo released a new single called "Nov 12", prior to embarking on The Reservations Tour, a headlining run across the US.

On August 6, 2018, SoMo released "I'm Comin' Home" as the lead single from his upcoming third studio album, A Beautiful November. He will embark on the tour of the same name beginning in the fall.
