İzel Çeliköz (born April 29, 1969 in Yalova), commonly known as İzel, is a famous Turkish pop singer. She was originally part of the Turkish pop trio İzel-Çelik-Ercan but after the group broke up in 1993, she decided to release solo albums. She is one of the most successful Turkish singers of the 1990s and 2000s.
İzel Çeliköz was born in Yalova, Turkey. She graduated from the İ.T.Ü. Devlet Konservatuarı in which she had mastered the kemençe, a type of violin. She also was part of her school choir as well as several other choirs in the city. In 1990 she participated in the Turkish heats for the Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Selam yabancı" which was placed last. Her first official release was a collaboration with Reyhan Karaca and Can Ugurluer for the 1991 Eurovision Song Contest on the song İki Dakika. The song was placed twelfth in Rome. Later that year, she formed a band with Ercan Saatçi and Çelik Erişçi called İzel-Çelik-Ercan and released an album titled Özledim.

In 1993, İzel won first place in the Kuşadası Altın Güvercin Müzik Yarışması. After deciding to start releasing solo albums, İzel released her solo debut album titled Adak. This album was produced by Aykut Gürel and former band member Ercan Saatçi. The first music video for this album was the song Hasretim and became one of the top songs of the year. The credits of the album included upcoming Turkish singers Bendeniz, Eda-Metin Özülkü, Kenan Doğulu, Seden Gürel and Yıldız Tilbe. During this time, İzel gave many concerts throughout Turkey.

In 1997, İzel released her second solo album titled Emanet which featured Mustafa Sandal on the opening track as well as listing him as a producer. She originally wanted the album to be produced by Ercan Saatçi and Aykut Gürel, but could not convince them to work together.[1]

In 1999, İzel released her third album Bir Küçük Aşk. In this album, she worked with young composer Altan Çetin. All of the songs were written by Altan Çetin.[2] The album closely sold 500.000 copies and created a successful career for her.[3]

In 2001, her fourth album Bebek was released. It was the second time that she was working with Altan Çetin. All of the songs were written by Altan Çetin. For the album, İzel tried arabesque music in some songs.[4]


In 2003, İzel released her fifth album Şak.[5] She got some dance lessons in Germany for preparation of the album.

In 2005, İzel released her sixth album Bir Dilek Tut Benim İçin. While she was working for Emel Müftüoğlu's album, she met Sezen Aksu and her present arranger Sinan Akçıl. She vocalized three Sezen Aksu songs in her own album. Also, Sinan Akçıl produced the album.[6]

In 2007, her seventh album Işıklı Yol was released. Sinan Akçıl produced the album.[7]

Now, İzel is working on her new album.[8] She is planning to release it in 2009.

Up to now, her all albums have sold more than 2 million copies.[9]
