Gaye Su Akyol | Ruhrtriennale 2025

In the organizer's words:

Feminist post-punk meets Anatolian psychedelia.

Gaye Su Akyol is one of the most exciting voices from the Bosporus - and a musical force between tradition and new beginnings. The singer and guitarist brings the sound of Anadolu rock into the present and mixes Anatolian folk music with post-punk, grunge and pop. With an iconic style, rebellious energy and a deep sense of sound history, she follows in the footsteps of legends like Selda Bağcan - and is considered the "greatest hope of Turkish rock music" according to the New York Times. A concert with attitude, power and hypnotic radiance - under the open sky in the Gießhalle.

The Ruhrtriennale is the festival of the arts in the Ruhr region - a celebration for all those who long for tomorrow. Touching experiences of music theater, drama, dance and more are created between machine halls and blast furnaces.
