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.

Raheem DeVaughn Nobody Wins the War

An all-star cast of neo-soul luminaries line up to assist the Grammy-nominated singer on one of the standout tracks from his new LP, 'The Love & War MasterPeace'.

Sparklehorse Sick of Goodbyes

After saying a sad goodbye to Mark Linkous this week, we recall a lovely, tuneful track from his second Sparklehorse album, 1998's Good Morning Spider.

Kisses Bermuda

Fine melancholy electro-pop from the LA-based pair.

MGMT Flash Delirium

New song from hyped Brooklyn duo's second album "Congratulations", is a glorious blast of psych-pop.

Yuck Georgia

The new band from members of the former Cajun Dance Party sounds like a shoegazey Sonic Youth with brilliant songs like this debut single.

Johnny & the Medicine Show Hotter Than A Kiss

England's answer to The Drums mix 50s rock'n'roll with Shangri Las harmonies and The Strokes' primal intensity on their forthcoming debut single.

Julian Lynch In New Jersey

Lynch brilliantly layers a plethora of instruments, ghostly vocals and pastoral sounds on this new song.
