One of the most exciting new folk duos to come out of the UK, GOOD HABITS’ award-winning, genre-fusing sound has received international critical acclaim in the short 3 years they have been performing.

Composed of Bonnie Schwarz (cello + vocals) and Pete Shaw (accordion), the pair mix virtuosic musicianship and vocal harmony with vivid storytelling, drawing on their diverse musical tastes and weaving them into an action-packed narrative of folky goodness. After a pandemic spent happily stranded in New Zealand, they recently arrived back in the UK to spread their joyous music throughout Europe.

BILLIE MAREE's melodies are possessed of an engaging Celtic flavour, and through her mesmerising vocals (and fresh production chops) manifest a haunting sonic intimacy reminiscent of Lankum or Lisa O’Neill.
