Has not connected their Facebook account.
We are a Folk-Rock duo of brother-sister Brad and Jessica Lauretti living in Brooklyn, NY.
We were brought up with a spirit of rebellion, a passion for social justice, and spent much of our childhood dancing and singing together to our favorite songs! After splitting with his last band, Brad turned to a new stripped down approach and began to collaborate with his sister Jessica, an experimental filmmaker who taught herself tambourine, ukulele, and drums. The Heroes sing honest, personal stories of love, loss, and longing for a better world. They are inspired by the human experience of generations of people trying to make it to the Mountain Top. Brad’s poetic heart and fighting spirit, in harmony with Jessica’s wild and wailing nature, gives the Heroes their unforgettable stormy sound.
Ooops, digital download. I guess you didn't need my address. Anyway...for the address book.
Congratulations! Love the cover art. You look beautiful as always Jessica!
