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 final episode of Music Box series six (and the last one of the decade!) stars Liverpool-based singer-songwriter Robert Vincent.

Signed to one of my favourite Nashville-based labels, Thirty Tigers, Robert is releasing his new album, In This Town You're Owned, in February 2020.

Produced by the renowned Ethan Johns (The National, Laura Marling, Paul McCartney), Robert's album includes the single "This Town", which he performed for his Music Box session.

”The song came about from my frustration with the realisation that whichever way people decide, rightly or wrongly, and mainly politically, their decisions are largely being manipulated by social media” he explains.

“The old days of small-town talk have gone, it is now a global town. Sadly, it has created division, in 'This Town' and everyone's town."

Robert also performed his songs "My Neighbour's Ghost" and "Demons", with the help of his brilliant band-members.
