Jazz Singer & Songwriter Olcay Bayir

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Jazz Singer & Songwriter Olcay Bayir .. We talked to her in May 2020 about how life has been going during the COVID-19 lockdown world .. And she opened up about her life in music .. Her approach is a natural marriage of her time-honoured Anatolian heritage and the vibrant, eclectic sounds of London, which she now calls home. Classically trained as a soprano, collaborations with musicians from all around the world have informed Olcay’s music as much as the rich tradition of Kurdish and Turkish folk songs of her youth. Enjoy her story ..
