American Vanity joins Caught on the Mike for a deep dive into identity, image, and the evolution of modern rock.
Led by dual vocalists Virginia Franks (bass) and Luke Hoffman (guitar), alongside Luke Vanchure on lead guitar and Carter Dennis on drums, the band opens up about stepping into a bold new era after years of national touring as Burn The Jukebox. Now reintroduced as American Vanity, they’re sharpening their songwriting, amplifying their hooks, and confronting the tension between authenticity and performance in the attention economy.
We talk creative reinvention, the pressure of being seen, lessons from the road, and what it was like working with Grammy-nominated producer Matt Squire on their upcoming full-length album. This episode goes beyond music — it’s about growth, risk, and owning who you are when the spotlight fades.
