Indie folk band BAHR was formed in Istanbul, 2016.

Starting with singer-songwriter Yusuf Bahar and drummer-percussionist Nihal Saruhanlı, the band gained its final form when bass player Ceren Bettemir joined the band in 2019. The same year BAHR won the “21st Battle of the Bands” music contest which was organized by Radyo Boğaziçi.

Following its success, BAHR released their debut EP “I Resist” along with the music video for “Those Streets” form the same EP, in June 2020, under “Dokuz Sekiz Müzik” label. Inspired by western folk music and oriental culture, songs of BAHR bear the traces of 90’s rock music.

BAHR is continuing its releases with the single “Papillion”, which is a duet with London based musician Glasxs. “Papillion” released in April 2022. “Papillion” is the starting point of a musical journey for BAHR, that will include 2 EPs and several singles.

The band released their second debut EP “Cursed Home pt.1” in July 2022. In this EP, BAHR has also collaborated with other musicians. The second single from the EP called Cursed Home is also significant with its music video, which is Veronica Solomon’s “Love Me Fear Me” stop motion animation.

BAHR is continuing scheduled concerts and in the meantime the band is getting ready for its third debut EP.
