Biography [edit]

Like Sertab Erener and Aşkın Nur Yengi, Levent Yüksel is one of the singers introduced to Turkish music by Sezen Aksu.[1] During his education in the now İstanbul University State Conservatory, Department of Contrabass, he played his bass in various nightclubs, along many singers. After completing his compulsory military service he worked in a night club orchestra together with Fatih Erkoç and Sertab Erener, to whom she had been married between from 1991 to 1996. Through Aykut Gürel he met Sezen Aksu, and accompanied Harun Kolçak in the vocals of the song Bile Bile from the first album of Aşkın Nur Yengi. Finally his first solo album Med Cezir came in year 1993. Two years later his second album, literally İkinci Albümü, and in 1997 the single Bi Daha followed. His latest album Kadın Şarkıları, in which he sang oldies originally sang by female singers, came in 2006. He was married to Eurovision Contest Winner Sertab Erener between 1990 - 1996.
