Humorous to Bees is a studio album from American folk-rock act Little Tybee released on April 5, 2011 by Paper Garden Records.[1][2] The album was the group's second full length effort, following their debut 2009 release, Building A Bomb. It featured a slightly altered core lineup from their debut release and the group enlisted the help of nine additional musicians (one of whom subsequently became a full-time member) during the recording process, making this album their most collaborative recording project to date.
