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.

"His debut album... skates dangerously close to self-indulgent pastiche yet contains some immaculately played gems that possess the definitive crackle of old-school analogue tape sessions." musicomh.com

"It is the atmosphere and production that continually impresses... Sure, we know the setting well and Wilson is a little too passive at times, but this is where he wants to be and he fully immerses himself in his passion for sun-baked, country-tinged sounds, wrapped in guitars, pianos and mellowed rhythms." bowlegsmusic.com

"Wilson has a rich folk lineage... so it is no surprise that this record is rustic, both in sound and imagery. A carefully crafted album likely to find favour with fans of Wilco or Crosby, Stills and Nash." list.co.uk
