Early Life

He was born in Istanbul, Turkey, and raised in the city of Bursa, Turkey. In Arabic, his given name, Mahir (ماهر), means 'skilled', his middle name is the Turkish form of Adam, and his surname is derived from the name of a Persian mythological figure, Tur (تور). His father is Hashim Turan, a bank manager, and his mother is Sabah Turan (née Beyoğlu), a wedding planner. He has one younger brother. At the age of eight, he emigrated with his family from Turkey to America.

From a young age, he enjoyed music — practicing piano. At school, he starred as Joseph in a production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and though he had high grades at school, Mahir decided not to go to college.
