Bayhan Gürhan was born on 14 March 1980 in
Adana. At an early age, he was interested in
arabesque,
Indian, and
Arabic music. At the age of six he lost his mother and with the remaining of his family moved to Germany. There he learned to speak German. At the age of nine, he was taken into custody by the
German Child Protective Services. He had a good ear for music which did not go unnoticed. Because of that he was allowed to perform on his flute from time to time at the church of the CPS, and briefly took piano lessons there. He eventually returned to Turkey in 1991. Between 1998 and 2000 he had spent time in prison for murder of his cousin. In 2003 he was a contestant in the first season of
Popstar Turkey on
Kanal D with judges
Ercan Saatçi,
Deniz Seki, and
Armağan Çağlayan. After the third week of the show, it was revealed that Gürhan had spent time in prison for killing a woman. When this got revealed in the media he was devastated. After the contest he released an album named
Hayal Edemiyorum in 2004 and
Kısa Veda in 2009. In 2010 he performed at the Afyon Jazz Festival singing songs of
Frank Sinatra,
Andy Williams, and
Louis Armstrong. In 2012 he appeared on
STV in
Hamdi Alkan's TV series
Kendimize Doğru. He also appeared on Kanal D's TV series ''Ankara'nın Dikmen'i
as a guest actor. In 2013 he presented the documentary Benim Yolum
(English: My Way) about street musicians. In 2015 during the month of Ramadan, he played the character of Bekir in the radio show Direkler Arası'' on
TRT İstanbul Kent Radio. In October 2016 he appeared on
Star TV's ''Zuhal Topal'la İzdivaç'' (English: Marriage with Zuhal Topal), because he wanted to get married, but later left the show. In 2017 Gürhan had sent a wreath of flowers to Deniz Seki's concert. Seki had recently been released from prison for drug trafficking. She responded on social media by stating that it had been a while since she made amends with Gürhan over her behavior in
Popstar Turkey. She appreciated the gesture and said that they were on good terms now. == Discography ==
