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.

Singer-songwriter LAUREL is the latest artist to appear in The Independent's Music Box series, continuing series 4 after its launch last week with Miles Kane.

The east London-based artist has been racking up praise thanks to live performances this summer.

Aged 24, she recently released her debut album Dogviolet. The LP features songs that were written while she was "locked away" for long periods of time "to capture the true mania that comes from love; although a beautiful feeling, it can often feel a lot uglier".

For her Music Box session she performed three original tracks: "Same Mistakes", "Sun King" and "Adored".

Watch the session in full (above) and catch LAUREL live at The Dome in London on 4 October.

Music Box season 4 continues every Monday until 26 November
