The feminist icon Gaye Su Akyol mixes post-punk and Anadolu rock.
Gaye Su Akyol is one of the most exciting voices of the Bosporus. The feminist singer and guitarist brings the unique sound of Anadolu rock into the 21st century, blending post-punk, grunge, and pop with Anatolian folk music. In praise, including in the "New York Times," Gaye Su Akyol is referred to as the "greatest hope of Turkish rock music," connecting to the psychedelic music of the 1970s in Turkey and folk icons like Selda Bağcan.
