A Different Thread – Over Again

I’m consistently impressed by A Different Thread, and their new single “Over Again” only deepens that admiration. From the first gentle strum, Robert Jackson and Alicia Best weave a delicate interplay of British folk and North Carolina Americana, their harmonies shimmering like sunlit dew. The arrangement is spare yet evocative: subtle fiddle, light percussion, and resonant acoustic guitar let the vocals breathe with tender sincerity. Jackson’s voice carries wistful warmth, while Best’s harmonies lift the song into an intimate duet that feels like a conversation between old friends.

“Over Again” explores renewal and reconciliation, offering fragile hope without sentimentality. I find the melody sticks with me long after the song ends, and I can’t help but smile at its quiet honesty. This single is a beautiful affirmation of A Different Thread’s artistry, and I love writing that.
