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.Although still only 28, the diminutive and forthrightly feminist folk rocker, Ani DiFranco (right), who is further distinguished by her amount of body ink and piercings, is on her twelfth album. She plays two UK shows in support of her current live CD, Up Up Up Up Up Up (Cooking Vinyl), which follows hard on the heels of her acclaimed Little Plastic Castle from last year. In recent years, she's become more musically adventurous, adding jazz and go-go influences to her largely acoustic sound. A regular feature on the covers of US music magazines, she's sure to attract a huge crowd of North Americans along with her growing UK fanbase to these shows.
