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.A Thousand Horses are your new favourite Nashville band. Fresh from releasing their new album Southernality, their sound is a lively, swaggering party recalling Lynyrd Skynyrd, Black Crowes and the Rolling Stones.
"First Time", which is premiering exclusively in The Independent, unites deep southern rock and soul, while the video itself is a great montage of footage taken from their hit US tour.
USA Today named them one of 2015’s Artists to Watch and Rolling Stone Country hailed them as the Best Up-and-Comer at 2014’s Austin City Limits.
Their debut release ‘Smoke’ saw them become the first band to have a debut single reach #1 on the Billboard Country Airplay Chart this decade, while its video received a nomination at the CMT Music Awards.
