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 NOS Alive 2020 headliner has been announced.

Joining Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar and Billie Eilish on the bill of the Portugal-based festival are The Strokes, who will play a string of festival dates this summer.

Other artists set to play the event in Lisbon include Khalid, Anderson .Paak and Two Door Cinema Club.

Jorja Smith and Grammy nominees Black Pumas will also play the festival (read our interview with the Austin-based band here).

The Strokes returned to London in 2019 after a four-year hiatus. They played London’s All Points East festival.

A new record – the band’s sixth – has been announced, but here is currently no word on a release date.

Nos Alive 2020 takes place in Lisbon from 8-11 July.
