The Flaming Sideburns are a garage punk/garage rock revival band that was formed in Helsinki, Finland in 1995. Most of the members are Finnish, but lead vocalist Jorge Eduardo "Speedo" Martinez is an Argentine expatriate.

The Flaming Sideburns released their first single Close to Disaster in 1997 and soon signed to Danish label Bad Afro who released a compilation It's Time to Testify in 1999 and debut album Hallelujah Rock'n'Rollah in 2001. Second album Sky Pilots followed on Ranch Records in 2003. Both albums were also released in the United States on Jetset Records. Third album "Keys to the Highway" was released early 2007.

In 2021 their latest studio album Silver Flames was released on Finnish label Svart Records. The band told journalist Jyrki "Spider" Hämäläinen that their guitarist Jeffrey Lee Burns had returned back to the band with the condition that they would record new material. Recording of the album took a couple of weeks and there were no overdubs recorded apart from some vocals.^[1]
