Worlds Collide is the intersection of our multicultural nation, seven cultures coming together creating new contemporary Australian music. They weave a global and contemporary sound into their infectious music, fusing culture, grooves, hip hop rhymes, melodic hooks and many languages into a fun, authentic and powerful experience. The seven-piece outfit couldn’t be more diverse if it tried.
Featuring Yaw Derkyi (Ghana) on percussion and vocals, Colombian keys and vocals of Danny Telas, Uruguayan drummer Juan Andres, Ian ‘Esky’ Escandor (Philippines) is MC with Annamaria Gomez (Colombia) on vocals. Alongside Western Sydney sound pioneer Richard Petkovic producer/guitarist, is award winning bassist Jonathan Nanlohy, from Ambon, Indonesia. At the core of their message is inclusivity, cultural pride, and a celebration of diversity, with their music elevated by the socially conscious rhymes of Esky from the streets of Mount Druitt, making them uniquely Australian.
