DJ: “… I don’t know, I didn’t… I didn’t think I’d be the one holding the air, I never spoke live before the event consumed the many. I’ve no news for the desperate survivors and… and I can’t… well, I can hope that this next song might help us survive a little longer…"

Gaye Su Akyol

Gaye Su Akyol

Gaye Su Akyol has been played on NTS in shows including Fat Out, featured first on 3 July 2016. Songs played include Kaçiyorum and Halimiz İtten Beter.

Gaye Su Akyol (born 30 January 1985) is a Turkish singer as well as a painter and anthropologist. She received Best Artist award at Songlines Music Awards 2019.

Akyol is the daughter of fellow artist Muzaffer Akyol, and, like her father, she is involved in visual arts as well as being a graduate from cultural studies. Her debut solo record, Develerle Yaşıyorum, stroked a new chord in Turkish alternative music scene. She unearthed her own story expanded into nine tracks in May 2014. She gained notoriety in the scene as each parts of Toz ve Toz, and the local hypnotic "electro-acoustic" band Seni Görmem İmkansız with Tuğçe Şenoğul, now determined to continue her musical venture as a whimsical storyteller.

The singer's sound can be defined as ‘musiki’ rather than the old good muzak itself. An old school word used in Turkish language for music, be that a more sophisticated, oriental and spiritual sound.

Akyol received Best Artist award at Songlines Music Awards 2019.
