   by Broad Beans
   Submited by Rodrigo de Sá of Cowboy Cantor

   The artist of the month of May at Cowboy Cantor, Broad Beans, is a quartet of young musicians, all under 25. They have been rocking the most important music venues in the Azores islands for a long time. Now finally the band that is from the same island as Rodrigo have released their first full album. The Farmer reveals not only the excellent musical talent of each of them, as also the fun moments you can spend listening or attending a concert by Broad Beans.

2. Fuel To Burn

   by Spitfire
   Submited by Ro of DarkCompass

   Picture yourself a dark basement, a place between wild mountains and the fjords of the western coast of Norway, the combination of an ancient Norwegian attitude, 70s classic rock and metal. During the WW-II legendary fighter Supermarine Spitfire ruled the sky in these areas, and today Spitfire are delivigering the same supersonic and fire-spitting goods!

3. Detroit

   by Great White Buffalo
   Submited by Matt Brier of Idiosyncratic Transmissions

   Indie rockers Great White Buffalo are determined to bring back emotional intelligence to rock and roll. With heartfelt lyrics and hard played instruments this quartet from LA is out to win your heart. "Detroit" is a prime example of their work and is off of their EP Fangs.

4. The Bait and The Trap

   by Mech Wendigo
   Submited by Ro of Made In The UK Show

5. O Caligula

   by The House of Jed
   Submited by Stuart Morrison of Insomnia Radio

   The House of Jed is the solo project of Admiral Twin drummer Jarrod Gollihare. He records his alterna-pop-rock ditties about pretty girls, comet strikes and the end of the world (you know…the usual pop drivel) at his home studio, mostly on cloudy days.
