Ülkü Eyupoğulları will make a mark on the summer with the album ‘Can Dadaşım’

Turkish folk music artist Ülkü Eyupoğulları from Erzurum is getting ready to enter the summer season with his album ‘Can dadaşım’. The successful artist announced that he will crown the song ‘Can dadaşım’ with a beautiful music video shot in historical places in his hometown Erzurum.

Ülkü Eyupoğulları was born in Sivas due to his father being a police officer. Although originally from Erzurum, the artist lived in many cities due to his father’s profession.

Ülkü Eyupoğulları’s interest in music began when he was a child, listening and watching his father, uncles, and aunts playing the bağlama and singing folk songs. His music journey continued throughout his education, where he stood out with awards in music competitions at school. In 2012, after the unfortunate traffic accident that took the life of his successful police officer father, he continued his education at the Istanbul Maltepe Music School with the support of his spiritual brother and fellow countryman İbrahim Erkal, while also hosting programs on various TV channels.

He released his first album in July 2016. In 2018, he released another single named ‘Hazalım’, and in 2019, he greeted the music world once again with a brand new work under the Seyhan Music label. The lyrics of the song, composed by Tugay Ören and arranged by Suat Sakarya, were directed into a music video by Ahmet Can Tekin. He donated the income from this work to contribute to the education of martyrs’ children.

In 2021, he presented two more pieces titled ‘İmkansızım’ and ‘Alacağım’ to his fans, and in 2023, he brought a new breath to the anonymous folk song ‘Tak Tak’. In the early months of 2024, he will continue his excitement by introducing 3 brand new pieces of his own lyrics and music to his fans. The folk song ‘Can Dadaşım’, with lyrics and music by Ülkü Eyupoğulları and arrangement by Ayhan Ak, became popular even before its release. Performing at the 106th anniversary events of Erzurum’s liberation, the artist felt the rightful pride of singing his song with his fellow countrymen on such an important day, and announced that he will soon crown the song ‘Can Dadaşım’ with a beautiful music video shot in historical places in his hometown Erzurum.
