Badger and Leaf are both self-taught musicians from a young age. Leaf has been playing her 12-string guitar in live venues for over 40 years. The duo met at a gathering in Lower Puna several years back and found a true harmonious commonality in their music and "The Sideburns" were born. They continue to gather and grow their repertoire, sung with full heart and soul. You will hear original songs and diverse and far-reaching cover tunes, from Steve Miller to Kate Wolf, Lyle Lovett to Ferron, we just don't know what they will play next.
