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.

This spirited debut hits the ground running and doesn't let up for a moment.

It's a fizzing cocktail of funked-up flamenco and Manu Chao-style pop/rock which owes as much to Ojos de Brujo as it does to the Clash.

Frontman DiMascio sings with a Bolanesque croon while strumming his acoustic with finger-bleeding intensity, and although much of the material has a political slant, there's no proselytising; these guys want to party while they're saving the world.

Pick of the album: Is 'We the People' the most cheerful protest song ever?
