With SYML, American singer-songwriter Brian Fennell brings indie pop back to its essence. The Metropole Orkest elevates his minimalist compositions into a rich orchestral experience, where his clear voice and understated melodies blend seamlessly with the orchestra.
The program combines his greatest hits, including Where’s My Love, with new work from his latest album Nobody Lives Here, his most direct and personal work to date. With more than four billion streams, the multi-platinum artist explores themes of grief, loss, mortality, and the passing of time. SYML is known for his genre-crossing collaborations, making the combination with the Metropole Orkest more than logical. Together with the orchestra, a live experience emerges that effortlessly alternates between intimate moments and full orchestral outbursts—steadfast and harmonious.
