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.

This London-based band have taken the traditional Greek underground form, rembetika, and subtly overlaid contemporary blues and rock influences.

The end result is a solid, confident debut which manages to both feel respectful of its 1920s roots while also bringing to mind the likes of the Cure, Public Image Ltd and – on the dark but sprightly "Gypsy Girl" – the seductive wall of drone that is the Velvet's "Venus in Furs". Fusion at its sincerest.
