Burn the Jukebox is a rising alt-rock band from Pennsylvania blending emotional intensity, sharp songwriting, and a sound that hits hard without losing its heart. The band is made up of Virginia Franks (bass/vocals), Luke Hoffman (guitar/vocals), Luke Vanchure (guitar/vocals), and Carter Dennis (drums).
With over 2.5 million followers and hundreds of millions of views across social media, Burn the Jukebox has built a passionate fanbase that extends far beyond the screen. In 2024, they took their momentum on the road for their first national headlining tour in partnership with Live Nation, playing iconic venues like Exit/In in Nashville and The Old Rock House in St. Louis. They also joined The Struts as direct support at XL Live in Harrisburg, bringing their raw, high-impact live show to even larger audiences.
The band’s breakout year was recognized with wins at the Central Pennsylvania Music Hall of Fame Awards (Best Youth Band) and the Steamtown Music Awards (Best Pop Band). They’ve also earned industry respect with endorsements from Ernie Ball and Schecter and collaborations with SJC Drums and Vans.
In May 2025, Burn the Jukebox partnered with Sweet Relief Musicians Fund, Fandiem, and Schecter to help raise funds for musicians in need, supporting mental health awareness and the creative community they’re proud to be part of.
Currently back on the road for their 2025 summer headlining tour, the band is also preparing to enter the studio to record their first full-length album—a project shaped by everything they’ve lived, learned, and played so far.
