Barclaycard wants your views on its Mercury Prize shortlist
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.Radio presenter Jo Whiley is launching Barclaycard Unwind's new "Have Your Say" discussion around this year's Barclaycard Mercury Prize Albums of the Year shortlist.
Unwind is a music service for Barclaycard customers that allows them to reserve tickets for gigs, one-off live sessions with popular artists, news, competitions and more.
Nominations for the Mercury shortlist were announced last week and include Corinne Bailey Rae, Dizzee Rascal, Laura Marling and Mumford & Sons. The winner of the prize will be announced at a ceremony at London's Grosvenor Park Hotel in September. This latest project adds to Barclaycard's existing music sponsorship portfolio, which includes the Wireless Festival and Wembley Arena.
