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.Just six months on from the excellent Blakroc – on which the Keys backed hip-hoppers Mos Def, Ludacris and the like – the next move for the former White Stripes wannabes was always going to be crucial.
And that urgency is palpable here. Experimental, dirty blues, played with passion and purpose; Brothers is proof that funky lessons have been learnt and business is refreshed rather than resumed. Just six months on from showing us how far they'd come, Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney give us a glimpse of how far they can still go.
