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.Barns Courtney is back with a new single: it's called "Sinners" - co-written with Carl Barat [Libertines, Carl Barat & The Jackals] - and you can hear it first via The Independent.
It's a juddering, bluesy-rock track that creeps up on you and builds to a powerful, compelling chorus that recalls the moodiest of Black Keys tracks with a bit of Johnny Cash thrown in for good measure.
Check it out below:
Courtney is following on from a successful 2017 with what looks set to be an even better year. He's headlining a show at London's Scala on 22 March 2018 (he's very impressive live), and has already shifted 100,000 copies of his debut album The Attractions of Youth.
Keep an eye out for him across the rest of 2018. "Sinners" is released on 9 February via Virgin EMI Records.
