Located in the Emlek region, which is prominent for its strong minstrel tradition, Sivrialan was historically home to many famous folk poets, or ashiks, of whom the most famous was Âşık Veysel, the 20th century poet and bağlama (saz) player. Others included Fadime (19th century), Ali Güç, Hıdır Güç, Veysel Kaymak, Bekir Sami Bozkurt, and Mehmet İmran (early-late 20th century, Veysel's contemporaries, most of whom studied saz poetry from him).
