Kara Delik (Turkish/post-punk-kraut vibes | Berlin)

Odd times call for odd timings:
Kara Delik are three friends brought together by their quest to find common ground amidst their varied backgrounds – resulting in driving yet complex rhythms, gritty basslines and hints of Turkish folk music.

Taking inspiration from Anatolian rock music of the 70’s, German Kraut and Punk of the 80’s and their diverse experiences in Berlin’s lively off-culture, everyone takes the cake for the voice in the band, blending everything from washed out vocals, spoken word to elements of Nagme, makes Kara Delik more than the mere sum of its parts.

Kara Delik are:
Baris Öner – Saz/Vocals (previously Istanbul Ghetto Club),
Andi Sommer – bass/synth/ vocals (Henry Fonda, Afterlife Kids, Yacht Communism),
and Eilis Frawley – drums/vocals (Anika, Laura Lee & The Jettes, I Drew Blank).

Coincidental kitchen encounters and the entanglements of the Berlin DIY scene brought them together in the summer of 2020, releasing their debut EP “Tamam” in 2022.

After a busy 2022 including support Shows for Minami Deutsch, Tropical Fuck Storm and 10000 Russos. Festivals like İç İçe/48h Neukölln and Entropie Festival and a first Tour through Germany and Switzerland, 2023 will see the release of the first two of a series of singles in February and April and a European Tour in Spring.
