A trio of images of musicals playing the accordion, drums and cello

Genre-bending indie-folk, forged on the other side of the globe. Expanding from a duo to a dynamic trio, the addition of Jenny Walinetski (Miles Kane) in 2025 brings a powerful, full-band sound to the next chapter of their evolution.

“Strong songwriting, pin-precision vocals, hard rocking accordion and great acoustic grooves…musicianship at its 21st century best." Tom Robinson BBC Radio 6

One of the most exciting new indie-folk bands to come out of the UK in recent years, Good Habits’ award-winning, genre-fusing sound has received international critical acclaim in the short 4 years they have existed with performances at Glastonbury and WOMAD, and tours throughout Europe and Australasia.

Their new album ‘Quarter-Life’ charted in the UK Official Folk Charts Top 40, and received glowing press across BBC Radio, Songlines Magazine and more. 

Composed of Bonnie Schwarz (cello + vocals); Pete Shaw (accordion + synth) and Jenny Walinetski (drums) the group mix revved-up virtuosity and harmony with vivid storytelling, drawing on their diverse musical tastes and weaving them into an action packed narrative of genre-bending folky goodness. The recent addition of Jenny brings a high-energy, full-band sound, pushing their indie-folk fusion into dynamic new territory. The new evolution will see them perform at Greenman, Kendal Calling, Greenbelt, Folk East and they look forward to future release projects.

“They’re very entertaining and very talented’’ - Frank Hennessey BBC Radio Wales 
“Full of devil may care passion” - The Morning Star ★★★★★
“Captivating” - Songlines ★★★★
