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.

Anyone for the cello as the new saxophone?

Following impressive chamber music albums by violinist Olivier Manchon and bassist Esperenza Spalding, composer/cellist Miskin provides an intermittently compelling blend of ambient instrumentals with minimalist songs. His coup lies in getting members of the National, the Books and the Clogs to collaborate, and opener "Wasn't That Lucky" is a catchy slice of art-pop. "In the Ocean" has vocals and viola by Padma Newsome, while "I Fell Off a Cliff" features Bryce Dessner.
