A Different Thread

Transatlantic Folk, Americana, Alt-Country duo based in North Carolina. Songs for a brighter future. Some things are meant to be. Alicia Best (US) and Robert Jackson (UK) met busking on the streets of Ireland and discovered a serendipitous harmony, both musical and personal. In the decade since forming, they have toured a dozen countries, supporting artists such as Milk Carton Kids and Jody Stephens (Big Star), garnering praise from the likes of Folk Radio UK who hailed them as “warm, deep songwriters that have drank from the well of 20th century tradition.”
