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.

There are wayward daughters and there is Eliza, the scion of the Waterson Carthy folk dynasty and as solid a branch as a family tree could wish for …

This is a summary of her career, spread over two discs and 31 songs – a non-chronological account of how English folk has spread its wings over the past 21 years. There are choice cuts from both solo work and oddments. The choicest? Her frigid "Jack Frost" from Holy Heathens. Brrr.
