Pilli Bebek

Pilli Bebek (English: Battery Baby) is a Turkish rock band formed in Ankara in 1993. The band has been in continuous existence since 1993 and has performed more than 1600 live shows in 42 cities. While Pilli Bebek is influenced by many genres ranging from heavy metal to Turkish art music, Scandinavian popular music to Latin music, they find themselves conceptually close to the Barcarolle style. The band's name comes from the popular children's program Torchy the Battery Boy (broadcast as Pilli Bebek in Turkish) shown on TRT in the early 1970s. Although the band was founded in Ankara, Turkey, it relocated to Istanbul after the Ankara street children beheading tragedy. The band is known for composing the music for the hit TV series Behzat Ç, with the music for the series being usually taken from the album "Olsun".
