Do you know why we have "Gleis 11" name?

 

Gleis 11 is a band that weaves together the intricate tapestry of the Turkish guest worker experience in Germany. Their music captures the heart and soul of this journey, as seen through the lens of different generations. The band's lineup features musicians who are sons and grandsons of the original guest workers who arrived in Germany during the 1960s and 1970s, as well as newer immigrants who have made the country their home.

Gleis 11's sound is a sublime fusion of Anatolian Folk and Rock music, seamlessly blending traditional and contemporary elements to mirror the cultural exchange and integration that has taken place over the years. Through their art, Gleis 11 pays homage to the legacy of Turkish guest workers, while simultaneously presenting a fresh perspective that revels in the diverse and vibrant human experience.

 

As they weave their musical tapestry, Gleis 11 honors the stories and traditions of the past, while painting a bold and dynamic portrait of the present. Their art is a powerful celebration of the human spirit, and a testament to the enduring power of culture and community.
