Leslie and the Badgers or Leslie Stevens and The Badgers is a Los Angeles-based folk-country band that was formed in 2006 by the songwriter and vocalist Leslie Stevens, formerly of the female fronted punk band Zeitgeist Auto Parts. The Badgers released their first album, Leslie and the Badgers, in 2007. It is currently out of print. Five songs from the album became the EP Greetings from.... in 2008. The band's 2009 release, Roomful of Smoke, was produced by David Bianco (Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Tift Merritt). The Los Angeles Times said Stevens' voice and writing evokes Patsy Cline while No Depression wrote that she calls to mind Emmylou Harris.
