Get into some Good Habits with folk gig in Newbury

A FOLK duo are coming out of winter hibernation to showcase new material next month.

Good Habits will be appearing in Newbury, bringing with them some world-folk tunes.

Bonnie Scharwaz and Pete Shaw aim to mix vivid storytelling with eclectic sounds, drawing on their diverse musical tastes and weaving them into an action-packed narrative of folky goodness.

They were in New Zealand when the pandemic struck and spent two years touring the country.

Last year, they returned and won the Purbeck Rising competition, and performed across the country, including gigs at the Shrewsbury Folk Festival, Bristol Folk Festival, and Manchester Folk.

Now, they will showcase their new set, featuring Klezmer music, folk cello and more.

The gig takes place at the ACE Space on Friday, February 17, and they will be appearing with Steady Habits.

Tickets cost £16.50.
