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.

HURRICANE #1

@ Brixton Academy Hurricane #1 manage to cook up a very post-Noel Gallagher rock storm with their debut album. With two hits "Step Into My World" and "Just Another Illusion" under their belts, they support Ocean Colour Scene. 11/12 Oct (0171-924 9999)

It was a surprise to many when Mansun's debut album Attack Of The Grey Lantern hit the number one spot earlier this year. Already working on the follow-up they break off to do a short tour. Catch up and see what the fuss is about. 14 Oct (0171-403 0403)

This Canadian guitarman has a fine line in tender tunemanship. His warm- spun folkery has made for enticing listening on his two albums so far. Expect many tracks from his most recent release Other Songs.
