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.

Guitar: John Frusciante

He's not in Red Hot Chili Peppers anymore so perhaps he's looking for a band to play in. His style of playing is just insane. You just watch John. He's a genius with the sounds he makes with the guitar.

Bass: Tom Beal

He plays in Splashh and he's got such a good ego for a bassist, the way he stands is amazing; he's the model bassist.

Vocals: Natalie Imbruglia

I think she's quite incredible. I really like female vocalists in a band, I think it's really cool. She and Tom would look good together.

Drums: Zach Robinson

Er, he's our drummer. I just think he's got a really cool style of drumming and he'd go well with the others.

Tambourine: Joel Gion

He plays tambourine for The Brian Jonestown Massacre. Gion is one of the best things to watch in the band.

Organ: Jon Lord

He played in Deep Purple. I'm really into the organ at the moment.

Swim Deep's single 'The Sea' is out now on Chess Club/RCA. They play Edinburgh, London and Birmingham from 27 May
