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 third album by Peter Wilson, the russet- dreadlocked singer-pianist from Lisburn, is a thing of some charm in small doses, but which stretches one's tolerance across 16 tracks.

His strong Emerald Isle singing accent ("now" is pronounced "nigh", and so on) invites comparison to Celtic soul predecessors such as Hothouse Flowers and the Waterboys, but Wilson's palette encompasses several other roots musical forms, from reels to reggae to ragtime.

Pick of the album: Push comes to shovel: 'Diggin' an Early Grave'
