Çilekeş (pronounced "Chilehkesh") was founded in 2002 in Ankara. The band received greater fame after winning the music contest "Genç Yetenekler Aramızda" (Young Talents Among Us), sponsored by the Fanta drinks company, in 2003, juried by such famous Turkish artists like Teoman and Levent Yüksel. After the contest, still as an amateur band, they were invited to a tour, comprising 17 cities, during which they performed to an approximate total of 350,000 audience.

The band members are Görkem Karabudak (vocal, guitar), Ali Güçlü Şimşek (electric guitar), Gökhan Şahinkaya (bass guitar), Cumhur Avcil (drums).

The band's first album, entitled Y.O.K. was released by On-air in 2005.
