​Ayca is a powerful, expressive and genre-straddling vocalist. She is best known for her classic rock covers, and alternately for her "angelic" vocal renditions of jazz standards. She is now co-writing original tunes with her party-music-focused band The Black-Eyed Susans (a.k.a Ayca Yayman Dance Band). Ayca is also a dual degree-holding pro oboist and is a member of the Knoxville Symphony Orchestra and the Oak Ridge Symphony.
