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.

Released to very little fanfare last year, In Memory of Loss travelled by word of mouth from one discerning music lover to the next.

Now given the major-label heave-ho it deserves, this is an album that will sound as perfect in 10 years' time as it does now. Comparisons to Bon Iver, Lambchop and Leonard Cohen tell only one part of the story. It's better than you can imagine. Hell, it's probably the best album of its kind that you will hear all year.
