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.

Hats off to Roy Harper, indeed, as he returns to the South Bank, following his triumphant 70th birthday concert in 2011, with his first album in 13 years, Myth and Man.

He's joined by guitarist Jonathan Wilson, his new record's co-producer, who plays an opening set and joins Harper along with a string ensemble led by Fiona Brice, orchestral arranger for artists including Kanye West, as Harper plays new songs, plus a side order of old favourites from a pungent life's journey through British folk and rock.
