New Music Alert: “Now The Wheel Has Turned”

New Music Alert: “Now The Wheel Has Turned” Announcing a new single release from Vermont Song Smith and Folk Singer Jason Baker. “Now The Wheel Has Turned” 3:30 Long-neck banjo and vocal Written by “Old Fashioned Folksinger” Steve Suffet, who says of this song: “Maybe it’s just another Gospel song. Or maybe it’s about the Israelis and the Palestinians, or about the Catholics and the Protestants, or about the Shi’ites and the Sunnis, or about the Pawnee and the Sioux. Or maybe it’s about all of the above, or about none of them. You decide. One thing is for sure: the wheel is always turning.” Streaming on Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, Pandora, Deezer, and on my website and ReverbNation for free: http://www.reverbnation.com/open_graph/song/35384239 Thanks! Jason Baker

This song is a reminder that you don't have to see your own light to shine. Song and lyrics by Alicia Best and Robert Jackson Produced by A Different Thread Engineered by Ali Blois and Luke Cawthra Mixed by Luke Cawthra Alicia Best: Vocals, drums, percussion Robert Jackson: Vocals, guitars, harmonica Mike Seal: Double bass Mastered by Steven Kerrisson (Weird Jungle) Published by Glovebox Songs and Kassner associated publishers ©℗ A Different Thread 2025 Video shot and directed by A Different Thread Edited by Robert Jackson Special thanks to David and Susan Website: https://www.adifferentthread.com Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/5Cntg... Bandcamp: https://adifferentthread.bandcamp.com Youtube: / @adifferentthread Instagram: / adifferentthread Facebook: / adifferentthread Tiktok: / adifferentthread Lyrics: I feel like Iʼm drowning, thatʼs how I talk about it You canʼt see anything Iʼm drownin' in And you say Iʼm a beacon, itʼs just hard to believe it When I feel like one of those angler fish #folkmusic #americanamusic #folk #altcountry #americana Iʼm afraid when I shine Itʼs just a trick of the light Iʼm no more than a spark Sent to lure you Into the dark Iʼm not like Polaris, steadfast in her brightness I guess Iʼm more like lightning one strike then Iʼm gone I can light up the sky, Iʼm just not always so bright And you canʼt rely on me guiding you home Iʼm afraid when I shine Itʼs just a trick of the light Iʼm no more than a spark Sent to lure you Into the dark I know that itʼs not true, I know Iʼm shining with you But sometimes I still feel like a deepwater fish The phosphorescence is our biggest defence Down here in the darkness of the Mariana trench Iʼm afraid when I shine Itʼs just a trick of the light Iʼm no more than a spark Sent to lure you Into the dark But you tell me you know the dark There are times when you lost your spark And you donʼt have to shine all of the time Itʼs exhausting but youʼre not alone Sometimes lightningʼs all you need to guide you home Oh oh oh oh oh I will guide you home Oh oh oh oh oh guide you home #folkmusic #indiefolk #americana #altcountry #mentalhealth

"New Year" Music Video

Posted By Marian Runk, Tuesday, December 9, 2025
Updated: Tuesday, December 9, 2025

My new music video, "New Year," premiered at Rainbow Rodeo  last week, and is now up on my YouTube channel!  

"Marian Runk takes a cautiously optimistic approach with her meditative video 'New Year.' The song tumbles off of Runk's tongue like a minuet, an almost stream-of-consciousness account of a small moment that ends up revealing a large impact." 

- Rachel Cholst
