| “The 13th Floor” wrote a review of the April 5th, 2021 performance by “Good Habits” at the Devonport Folk Club in Auckland. New Zealand. The duo, which includes Pete Shaw (accordion) and Bonnie Schwarz (cello) entertained with a variety of pieces at the event. The review included comments such as: “Pete is a virtuoso accordionist who can sound like a whole band. Has a genuine Folk background but besides the Celtic and Gaelic rhythms, his playing is filled with wider European Folk and Gypsy Jazz textures” and “Their closing number is Raising the Hour Hand - A rousing number which is Folk but swinging with a Pop beat. The accordion sounds like massed violins.” The duo (from the UK) have been in New Zealand since the Covid-19 pandemic in early 2020 and have utilised their time playing in pubs, clubs and festivals around the country. |
