About
After putting out three great records on Badman, The Red Thread called it quits in the Summer of 2007. "Actually, we'd like to think of it as a long vacation" says former front man Jason Lakis. However, the discography left behind by this bay area band will continue to be relevant for a long time. Lakis started a new band called Mist and Mast ( myspace.com/mistandmast ) and Dan and Joe are playing in This Isn't It ( myspace.com/thisisntit )
"If there is a circumstance in ordinary life that isn't enhanced by this record, I haven't found it." - No Depression

Ship in The Attic, Birds in The Subway
The album expands on the sound of the previous two, in that it mixes more of the energy of their live shows and spaghetti western, guitar-driven pop songs. "If there is a circumstance in ordinary life that isn't enhanced by this record, I haven't found it." - No Depression
Tension Pins
The new album, “Tension Pins,” builds on Jason’s hypnotic voice with its blend of soulful Americana and finely crafted somber pop tunes. While venturing into some new territories, Tension Pins still maintains the band's signature laid back, west coast feel. Available through our site now. Limited edition screened poster available.
After The Last
When Jason Lakis' last musical outfit, the acclaimed Bay Area band Half Film, parted ways, he did what any self-respecting musician does after a break up - he holed himself up in his house and emerged six months later with an album's worth of songs. The debut album from The Red Thread, After the Last, is what happened when Jason took his finely-crafted tunes to his friends from San Francisco-based band The Inspectors, and came back with a musical offering of slow-burning beauty and a sprinkling of countrified charm.
