Arto Tunçboyacıyan (Armenian: Արտո Թունչբոյաջյան) (b. 1957 in Istanbul) is a Turkish-Armenian musician. Tunçboyacıyan sings, accompanying himself on the traditional six-stringed sazebo, solos on the traditional double-reed duduk, and plays percussion. A famous avant-garde folk artist (singer, songwriter, percussionist, and multi-instrumentalist), he appeared on more than 200 records in Europe before arriving in the United States, where he went to work with numerous jazz legends including Chet Baker, Al Di Meola, and Joe Zawinul as well as a semi-regular stint with Paul Winter and The Earth Band. He is also a member of the band Night Ark.
Tunçboyacıyan fronts his own group called the Armenian Navy Band. He also worked with Turkish singer Sezen Aksu and the Greek singer Eleftheria Arvanitaki. His brother, Onno Tunç, was also a musician, and Tunçboyacıyan pays tribute to him in the song, “I Miss You Every Moment, My Brother.”
His 2001 album “Aile Muhabbeti” was used as soundtrack in two films: Hemşo (2001) and “Mon père est ingénieur” (2004).
Serart is one of Arto Tunçboyacıyan’s latest efforts, a collaboration between himself and Serj Tankian (singer of the alternative metal band System of a Down), who have found common ground in shared Armenian backgrounds and a passion for sonic explorations in creating music that is claimed to be “completely new.”
There is a hidden track on the album Toxicity by System of a Down (right after the song Aerials), where Tunçboyacıyan contributed, with the band playing a traditional Armenian Church hymn, Der Voghormya (Lord Have Mercy).
