Karl Hirzer

Symphony Nova Scotia

With a string of impressive awards (including the ECMA’s Group of the Year in 2025), gold and platinum singles, sold-out international appearances, and over 100-million streams to their credit, Halifax’s own Neon Dreams are alt-pop pioneers, drawing inspiration from diverse pop, rock, folk, electronic, dance, hip-hop, and reggae influences. Known for their high-energy performances and multi-instrumental prowess, they join conductor Daniel Bartholomew-Poyser (himself a huge fan of the group) for their orchestral debut with Symphony Nova Scotia.
