// Grup Yorum
This ten-member Turkish group was formed in 1985 by university students as a form of protest against the military rulers that had been governing the country since 1980. Grup Yorum have become one of Turkey’s most prolific bands despite the relentless censorship, incarceration and torture meted out by successive governments. Their 19 albums have been sold in the millions and their folk-rock music continues to be at the core of protest movements throughout the country. The band sings in Turkish, Kurdish, Arabic and Circassian.
