About — The artist
A Different Thread is a folk/Americana band centered around the collaboration between multi-instrumentalists Alicia Best (USA) and Robert Jackson (UK). They met by chance in 2016 while busking in Galway, Ireland, and began writing and performing together, officially forming as A Different Thread in 2017 at Shrewsbury Folk Festival. Their music blends British folk rock traditions with American roots styles, including Appalachian, old-time, alt-country, and North Carolina Piedmont blues influences. They are known for their vocal harmonies, award winning songwriting, and minimalistic stripped back acoustic instrumentation.
Based in Durham, North Carolina, as of 2024, they have toured across the United States, United Kingdom, Europe, Mexico, and Guatemala. Their work has received praise from outlets including Americana UK, Rolling Stone Germany, RnR Magazine, Glide Magazine, FATEA Magazine, Folking, BBC, and NPR-affiliated regional programming.
