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.

Royal Blood, Paloma Faith and George Ezra will perform at this year’s Brit Awards, organisers have confirmed.

The three British acts will join Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith on stage during the ceremony in February.

The nominations for the 2015 Brit Awards will be announced on Thursday.

Royal Blood are tipped to be nominated for the British album of the year after their self-titled first album became the fastest-selling British rock debut in three years.

George Ezra rose to worldwide recognition in 2014 with his hit single “Budapest”. His debut album Wanted on Voyage also topped the UK album charts and it is thought he could be nominated for British Breakthrough Act.

Paloma Faith last performed at the Brit Awards in 2011 with Cee-Lo Green. The Hackney-born singer’s third album A Perfect Contradiction entered the album charts at number two in 2014, becoming her fastest-selling album to date.

Ant and Dec will take over from James Corden to host the ceremony at London’s O2 Arena on 25 February.

Jessie Ware, FKA Twigs, Clean Bandit and this year’s Critics’ Choice winner James Bay will perform during the special broadcast of the Brit Award nominations unveiling on Thursday 15 January at 10.40pm on ITV.
