   About This Frontier Needs Heroes
This Frontier Needs Heroes is the family folk duo of brother and sister Brad and Jessica Lauretti. We sing honest songs about love, compassion, and humility. We are all about everyday heroism and changing the world. We quit our day jobs to become full time heroes. We just finished recording our first album at Vacation Island Studio in Brooklyn with Matt Boynton (Gang Gang Dance, Arbouretum, TK Webb and the Visions). We love it!
