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.

Nothing travels like blue. And 50 years after the heyday of Roy Orbison, mileage is still being extracted by handsome devils with fat Gibsons, collapsed quiffs and an operatic way with lonesome feeling.

This is Isaak's first studio album in seven years and it presses all the Roy-to-Bruce continuity buttons which were charmingly old hat when he first appeared 20 years ago. Dianne Warren co-writes. Trisha Yearwood and Michelle Branch co-sing. All bases are covered, though too many songs collapse like the quiff.
