"Over the past few months, Urbano has teamed up with rising Seattle act the Bee Fee Tees. Made up of Keegan Metcalf (lead guitar), Aiden Ryser (bass), and Ben Schuh (drums), the band got its start when the members bonded while playing horns in the same school band. Although the Bee Fee Tees’ guitar-driven formula is pretty far removed from the sound of a band that might play in a high school auditorium, these jazz roots shine through in their intricate music. Along the way, they met Urbano at a battle of the bands. The performers kept up after that show, joking around and talking music—they discovered that they appreciated different types of art in the same way. Since playing rock had a grip on the Bee Fee Tees, they jumped at the opportunity to start working with Urbano when he hit them up to collaborate. With the Bee Fee Tees supporting him, Urbano’s sound has soared to exciting new heights. The demos for their upcoming record touch on everything from soaring, summer-y psych rock (“Birth Control”) to shuffling, half-time indie a la Deerhunter (“Memory Leak”). It’s easy to hear how much life the Bee Fee Tees breathe into Urbano’s music, but one can also trace the impact that his masterful craftsmanship has had right back on them" - Ted Davis
