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.Nina Nesbitt is the latest artist to star in series six of our Music Box sessions.
The pop singer just released a deluxe edition of her latest album, The Sun Will Come Up, The Seasons Will Change & The Flowers Will Fall.
It includes tracks from the original version of the record, plus new, never-before-heard material.
Reviewing her album in January this year, The Independent said: Nesbitt offers blunt songwriting in a genre that far too often deals in vague clichés. “I was signed, and falling in love for the very first time / But that f***ed me up / So then I had issues with falling in love,” the 24-year-old sings on “The Moments I’m Missing”, which tackles the fallout from chasing a career in the music industry.
Listen to tender ballad “Last December”, meanwhile, and you’ll probably think of early Taylor Swift, but the breathless “Best You Had” also recalls her later work on Reputation. With a stamp of approval from the queen of pop herself, hopefully this time Nesbitt will get credit where it’s due.
Nina is performing at London's Electric Ballroom on 10 December.
