Band,
Rock and Alternative
Formed by Emre Balık as a project band in an attempt to diffuse his musical and intellectual background in 2007, New York's Gökböri became an actual band when Jesse Haff joined in 2009. Jesse's complex yet powerful drumming, a blending of Emre's early 80's black/thrash riffs with heavy metal and a touch of Turkish folk melodies, and addition of heavy, black and punk vocals were the starting point of Gökböri. Recording of their debut, Balbal began in July 2011 at band's own studio, Wolf's Lair, and was released by Buz on February 26, 2013. The band is currently working on new materials for the second album, Erlik.
