Beta Radio's self-released second album, Colony of Bees was recorded largely in the home studios of band members Benjamin Mabry and Brent Holloman and marks a subtle departure in style from their debut Seven Sisters. The record features a fuller sound than its predecessor thanks in part to the lengthier recording period and accomplished personnel appearing on the record. Of note is respected composer/arranger/violinist Rob Moose (Sufjan Stevens, Bon Iver, Ben Folds, Arcade Fire).[1]
