Combining radical vulnerability\, humor in just the right moments\, and a perfect vocal blend honed over the past decade\, the two storytellers build a space where listeners can reconnect with themselves\, their feelings\, and the truest parts of being a human in a complicated time. For folks who love thoughtful lyrics\, fun fiddle solos\, and sparkling harmonies\, The Honey Badgers are sure to deliver. \nThe duo recently released their second full-length album\, “The Earth Turns and So Do We”\, a mature and varied collection of original songs focused on the repeating cycles of life\, death\, love\, and time itself. The album reached #15 on the July 2024 FAI Folk Radio Chart. A song from the album\, “Bring With You Nothing\,” won Gold in the Folk Category and 3rd place overall in the 2025 SAW Mid-Atlantic Song Contest. After winning the 2023 Falcon Ridge Folk Festival Emerging Artist Showcase and the 2024 Susquehanna Folk Festival Emerging Artist Showcase\, “emerging” has become a guiding light for the two musicians.
