It’s the biggest event on the Around the World calendar – the annual Around the World Party! Join Davy Sims for two uninterrupted hours of incredible global sounds, handpicked to move your feet and soothe your soul.

The first hour is your passport to the dancefloor – high-energy tracks from Brazil to Bosnia, Ghana to India, and beyond. Then, wind down with a second hour of chill tunes from the coasts of Newfoundland to the heart of Mali, the streets of Lisbon to the hills of Slovenia.

This week’s musical journey features artists from:

Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Canada, Cyprus, England, Ghana, India, Ireland, Italy, Mali, New Zealand, Newfoundland, Poland, Portugal, Scotland, Senegal, Slovenia, and Spain.

No borders, no borders – just beats, rhythms, and melodies from around the globe. It's a celebration. Don't miss it.

Get ready for another captivating episode of Around the World with Davy Sims, your passport to the rich and diverse sounds of global music. This week, Davy takes us deep into the southern hemisphere, starting with a spotlight on the vibrant and ever-evolving music scene of Australia—from Indigenous voices to modern indie and folk. Then it’s off to the Solomon Islands, where traditional island rhythms and harmonies paint a sonic picture of life in the Pacific.

But the journey doesn’t stop there. As the musical compass turns once more, we head across the ocean to South America, making a special stop in Ecuador to feature the stunning new album from Gracia Albán. Blending heartfelt lyrics with lush instrumentation, this album captures the spirit and soul of contemporary Ecuadorian music.

As always, Davy curates each track with care, weaving stories, cultures, and sounds into a seamless musical adventure. Whether you're discovering something new or reconnecting with global favourites, this week’s episode promises a rich listening experience that will transport you far beyond borders.

Tune in and let Around the World with Davy Sims take you on another unforgettable journey.

Each week, Davy Sims opens up his musical map and invites listeners on a globe-trotting adventure, exploring the rich, diverse, and endlessly fascinating sounds of the world. From the bustling streets of Lagos to the hidden valleys of the Andes, from Tokyo’s underground beats to the traditional chants of the South Pacific, this show is your front-row seat to the world's music scenes — both past and present.

Expect a vibrant mix of genres, styles, and stories: Afrobeat, reggae, highlife, Latin jazz, Balkan brass, desert blues, Scandinavian folk, Asian pop, Indigenous sounds, and everything in between. Davy digs deep to uncover the music that defines cultures, tells history, and connects people, all while spotlighting lesser-known artists alongside global icons.

Whether it’s a themed episode focused on a particular country, region, or genre, or a freewheeling spin through continents in a single hour, Around the World is more than just a music show — it’s a cultural journey. With Davy’s warm storytelling, deep knowledge, and infectious enthusiasm for discovery, you’ll hear the world differently.

So pack your curiosity and let the rhythm guide you. The world is playing — are you listening?
