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.Boygenius have announced two huge UK shows in London and Halifax.
The super-group consisting of solo artists Phoebe Brigders, Lucy Dacas and Julien Baker announced their new album, The Record, last month.
The band will play Gunnersbury Park in London on 20 August and Halifax’s The Piece Hall on 22 August.
The group will be supported in London by three piece MUNA, who are signed to Bridgers’ label, Saddest Factory Records, and singer Ethel Cain. Cain will also support the group when they play up north.
Boygenius announced the news of their new album on 18 January, and shared three new songs from the forthcoming release.
“The record is out 31 March and three songs are out now,” they wrote on Instagram at the time.
While discussing the new album in an interview with Rolling Stone in January, Bridgers confirmed she was not engaged.
Back in November, Bridgers and Normal People star Paul Mescal were rumoured to be engaged. However, their fans now believe they have broken up.
Bridgers explained that one of the forthcoming singles from the new record, “Revolution O”, is about “falling in love online”.
“With the attention span of being in lockdown, it was just really beautiful,” Bridgers said.
According to Rolling Stone, Bridgers did not comment on who the song was about or whether the couple are still together, but she did confirm she is not currently engaged.
