Career

Gürman studied at Private Efdal Kindergarten and Primary School and later at İstek Foundation Acıbadem High School. She graduated from Pera Fine Arts High School in 2001. In 2001, she continued her music education by taking violin and singing lessons at the Istanbul Technical University Turkish Music State Conservatory.[1]

Gürman makes music by blending Mediterranean and Arabic musical elements. She and her brother rose to prominence by sharing a video of themselves on YouTube, in which they performed the song "Evlerinin Önü Boyalı Direk".[2]

Their first album, Kısmet, has a total of 10 songs. In addition to the songs bearing Berk's signature, they blended famous türküs with flamenco elements and put them in the album. After these releases, they presented the music and chat program Boyalı Direk on TRT 1. In 2010, Öykü and Berk ended the duo, and decided to pursue a solo career.[3]

Since 2014, she has shifted her focus to her acting career. She is best known for her role as Asiye in the drama series Sen Anlat Karadeniz, in which she starred between 2018 and 2019.[1]
