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.

Let's call it new music Friday - here's something by the Istanbul-based The Away Days who are back with a new single 'World Horizon', which we're premiering today on The Independent.

They've supported the likes of Savages, Bell and Sebastian and Portishead - representing one of just a few bands from Turkey who are succeeding in breaking new ground in the UK.

Check the track out and let us know what you think:

Q&A with The Away Days

What are you listening to at the moment?

At the moment, we're listening to Soft Hair, Sampha and Local Natives.

What are your plans for the rest of 2016?

After the our first single, we're planning to release our second single from our debut album. And play our first European Headline Tour in November. Reaching new audiences, pushing our music to the largest platforms as much as possible.

What was the first gig you ever played and what's been the best so far?

My (Can Ozen) first gig was in the city called ''Antalya'' south of Turkey when i was 15.

The best one was in Hoxton Square Kitchen last year. The crowd and the people were awesome. Looking forward to come back to UK!
