Genre-bending indie-folk, forged on the other side of the globe
Being ?happily stranded? in New Zealand in 2020 launched Good Habits? full-time musical adventure, and their joyous genre-fusion has received international critical acclaim, cementing them as rising stars in the UK indie-folk scene. Including performances at Glastonbury and WOMAD; tours throughout the UK, EU and Australasia; and a Top 40 Folk Charts album.
?Pinpoint precision vocals, hard-rocking accordion, and great acoustic grooves. English folk musicianship at its 21st-century best.? (Tom Robinson, BBC Radio 6 Music).
Originally a duo composed of Bonnie Schwarz (cello + vocals) and Pete Shaw (accordion + synths + perc), Good Habits mix revved-up virtuosity, harmony, and vivid storytelling into an action-packed narrative of genre-bending goodness. In 2025, Good Habits evolve into a trio, welcoming drummer Jenny Walinetski (Miles Kane) into the band. This addition brings a high-energy, full-band sound, pushing their indie-folk fusion into dynamic new territory.
After bringing Good Habits home to the UK at the end of 2021, the band has built an ever-growing, loyal fanbase through award-winning performances and a relentless touring schedule. Their latest album 'Quarter-Life' (2024), charted in the Top 40 Official Folk Charts and received multiple 5* reviews and radio play across BBC Radio, Songlines, and internationally.
