Biography

Şebnem Ferah (born 12th April 1972) is a Turkish singer and song-writer. She was the lead vocalist of the all-female hard rock band Volvox (TR) until 1994, after which she went on to pursue a solo career. Her musical style varies from acoustic rock to hard rock, though her later albums have progressively incorporated more of the hard rock sound.

Born in Yalova to Turkish immigrant parents from Skopje, Macedonia, Ferah got her first guitar when she was in the first year in boarding at Bursa Namık Sözeri High School. She took lessons on the acoustic guitar, and during her second year she hired a studio with her friends and formed the group Pegasus. The group had their first stage experience during a rock festival in Bursa, in 1987. After a while, Pegasus disbanded. In 1988 with her four friends, Ferah formed Volvox, which was named after a microorganism that they had encountered in a biology lesson.

After a period during which she attended Middle East Technical University, studying economics in Ankara, she moved to Istanbul, where she attended classes on English language and literature at the Istanbul University. For two years she performed in various bars with Volvox, until they disbanded in 1994.

She released her first solo album, Kadın in 1996, and has gone on to release a total of six full studio albums, the last one being Benim Adım Orman, released in 2009. In addition to composing the music and writing the lyrics of every song in her albums, she occasionally sings on stage cover versions of work by artists of similar vocal qualities and style, such as Amy Lee and Skin.

    Indie'yi rock diye kakalıyor bir başka deyişle. :)) Sezen Aksu'nun eline elektro gitar verirsen ne olacaksa, Şebnem'de o kadar rock yapıyor işte son 2 albümdür. "Enerji Emici" diyorum ben bu türe ne yazık ki.

    Perdeler'den sonra güzel albüm çıkarmadı ki zaten.Can Kırıkları yla biraz toparlıyordu ama fanların tepkilerine göre yumuşattı hemen sound'u.Şimdi de ısmarlama bir rock sound'u gibi duruyor.
