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.

Like the Lounge Lizards in the 1980s, only better, Norwegian/Swedish quintet Atomic rework the squawks, squeaks and squiggles of classic free jazz to create edgily cool contemporary music.

The freely improvised elements are contained within carefully organised structures and the more you listen, the less the castor oil of the squawks puts you off. What's most striking is how varied the pieces are, and how expertly the group work their acoustic landscape. One for beard-strokers everywhere.
