Band history Edit
Çilekeş was founded in 2002 in Ankara. The band received greater fame after winning the music contest "Genç Yetenekler Aramızda" (Young Talents Among Us), sponsored by the Fanta drinks company, in 2003, juried by such famous Turkish artists like Teoman and Levent Yüksel. After the contest, still as an amateur band, they were invited to a tour, comprising 17 cities, during which they performed to an approximate total of 350,000 audience.
The band members are Görkem Karabudak (vocals, rhythm guitar), Ali Güçlü Şimşek (lead guitar), Gökhan Şahinkaya (bass guitar), Cumhur Avcil (drums).
The band's first album, entitled Y.O.K. was released by On-air in 2005. They released their second work entitled Katil Dans in 2008. At 2010, they released their third album "Histeri Çalışmaları" which is available for download at their official web page.[1]
After a months-long silence on Facebook, the band's official page posted on January 21, 2014 that [translated into English from the original Turkish] "Bubituzak appeared when Çilekeş was about to rest for a while,"[2] insinuating that Karabudak and Şimşek were now instead focused on their next project, Bubituzak.
