Its name "やなわらばー" is a okinawan dialect for "naughty kids". Actually it's a dialect of Okinawa main island, which is slightly different from a dialect of their birthplace Ishigaki island.
Ishigaki Yuu plays "San-shin", a traditional Okinawan guitar, which gives their songs Okinawan flavor, despite of lyrics in standard Japanese and pop-oriented melody line.
