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 success of 'Juno' has seen the world finally catch up with the lo-fi anti-folk Adam Green pioneered with his band the Moldy Peaches. Typically, just when you'd expect an album full of twee duets, Green goes the other way and presents an album that forgoes much of the usual whimsy in favour of fully rounded pop. There is proper production. There are backing singers. Hell, there is even a rather lovely soul feel. The Jonathan Richman comparisons are still accurate, though, and Green even namechecks his inspiration in "Morning After Midnight". File under 'Adam Goes Motown'.
