Talented young ones on East FM, Saturday from high noon...

Phil from Farm Cove

Popular Brit folk-fusion duo Good Habits, and Play It Strange competition finalist Guntaas Oberoi, are featured artists on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, midday to 4pm (NZ time, Jan 20) on East FM.

Popular Brit folk-fusion duo Good Habits, and Play It Strange competition finalist Guntaas Oberoi, are featured artists on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, midday to 4pm (NZ time, Jan 20) on East FM.

Good Habits – Bonnie Schwarz (cello and vocals) and Pete Shaw (accordion), it would be fair to say are honorary Kiwis, having been “happily stranded” here for two years during Covid. They’ve returned on their Quarter-Life Album Tour, until late March, which has concert dates in Australia, too.

And it’s New South Wales where we’ll find them when talking live to Good Habits at 12.30pm about their musical journey and Aotearoa experience, and the new album Quarter-Life, before they resume their NZ tour, which includes performing at Auckland Folk Festival during anniversary weekend, and WOMAD.

In the past year, after leaving these shores, Good Habits have played at famous festivals including Glastonbury, Elfia, and Cambridge Folk, and they’re described as ‘mixing 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’.

Recommendations come from: Amanda Palmer: “You want to wrap this duo around you like a warm blanket’’. Fat Freddy's Drop: “Good Habits serve up strong musicality with an appealing vocal. Fat Freddy's Drop enjoying a bit of Alt-folk!” Tom Robinson (BBC Radio 6): “Musicianship at its 21st century best."

Good Habits’ tour and ticket info: www.goodhabitsband.com...

We’ll also be chatting live in-studio at 1pm with Guntaas Oberoi, who’s at an exciting time in her fledgling music career: Just graduated from school (Macleans College), acknowledged for her singing and songwriting talent, and has recorded two songs and released them to the world.

“Throughout my high school journey I was grateful to be given the opportunity to enter competitions run by Play It Strange, and have two of my songs achieve a finalist position, resulting in the recording and the release of Shining and Rainbow Skies,” says Guntaas Oberoi.

“I’m so incredibly passionate about the music I make and aspire to continue to create pieces that are relatable and moving, and something people can connect with.”

East FM is East Auckland’s fair-dinkum community-powered public service radio station, on 88.1FM and 107.1FM on local frequencies, nationally and globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on app iHeart Radio.
She’ll Be Right - it’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. – PJ
