But the version Deryas grandmother sang was different shed put her own slant on it. And Deryas is different still brought into the 21st century with a slow psychedelic twist and her own hypnotic vocals. This is by design. Derya insists that if youre going to play an old folk song then you have to contribute something new, otherwise you might as well just put the old record on.Born in Hamburg, Germany to Turkish parents, she grew up influenced by her familys Anatolian background and the myriad of cultures in the city. Deryas musical roots started at home playing folk music with family members. Her father pushed her to learn various instruments, beginning with the bağlama, a seven stringed Turkish lute. Then she picked up the guitar, piano, and saxophone.
