A Different Thread
Green Note Ltd, Green Note, NW1 7AN , [Venue Details]British-Americana troubadours A DIFFERENT THREAD create a richly emotive tapestry of transatlantic folk.
Lead singers Robert Jackson (Midlands, UK) and Alicia Best (North Carolina) first met busking in Ireland.
Their chance encounter sparked a musical journey that has spanned over nine years, a dozen countries, and three studio albums— capturing the love of two folk singers chasing their dreams on the road.
Backed by Mike Seal on double bass, their original songs weave Celtic balladry and Appalachian blues, featuring fiddle, harmonica, and an abundance of honeyed harmonies. Following in the footsteps of Johnny Cash and June Carter, Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris, and Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings, A Different Threadʼs unique sound has earned them acclaim for their powerful storytelling and moving live performances. They have garnered support slots with the likes of The Milk Carton Kids, Native Harrow, and Jody Stephens (Big Star), as well as features with NPR and the BBC.
Their third album, Over Again (Sept 2025), is an ode to new beginnings and working towards a brighter future and will be pre=release copies will be available for purchase at this show. Written around the solar eclipse, it sees the band exploring new sonic territory, mixing electric guitars with dulcimers, gospel-esque backing vocals with honky-tonk fiddle.
