Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

It borders on the twee. That it doesn't cross the frontier is the reason this is worth your attention.

HP is Irish, she writes wistful, romantic, occasionally abstract songs, which are produced in Shoreditch by a member of Tunng, without much air but plenty of clatter (and vintage synths) in the mix. Crucially, it belongs to the modern world of dodges, evasions and trompe-l'oreille effects. Peel sings as if butter wouldn't melt but her melodies are strong. Interesting debut.
