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.The US's National Public Radio will offer a live webcast of a Bon Iver concert on Tuesday, August 2, at approximately 9:30pm ET. The chart-topping indie band is set to play Washington DC's 9:30 Club as part of the tour for their latest album.
Bon Iver's recent self-titled album has so far peaked at number four on the UK and Australian album charts and number two on the US chart, and for weeks tracks from the album have claimed spots on Last.fm's international singles top ten chart.
In 2008, the Wisconsin-based band, fronted by singer Justin Vernon, released its debut album, For Emma, Forever Ago, which was also critically acclaimed, making a number of critics' best albums of the year lists.
