February 9, 2026 – Today, rising PA rockers American Vanity release the accompanying music video for their latest single “Lifeline,” out everywhere now. Released on January 23rd, “Lifeline” is a vulnerable track that captures the intensity of yearning for connection, clinging to someone emotionally like a lifeline even as the relationship itself feels uncertain. That raw emotion is heightened by a catchy, nostalgia-tinged pop-punk melody, driven by hook-laden guitar lines and larger-than-life drums. The accompanying music video matches the song’s urgency with a grungy, high-energy visual, placing dual vocalists Luke Hoffman and Virginia Franks in a heart-pounding race against the clock as captives fighting to break free. “‘Lifeline’ examines emotional dependence in a culture where validation feels constant but fragile,” shares the band. “The song captures the tension between wanting connection and recognizing when that connection starts to define you.” Watch the music video HERE Listen to “Lifeline” HERE American Vanity, formerly known as Burn The Jukebox, is a group that turns modern rock into a mirror — vivid, unfiltered, and built to reflect what it feels like to live in your own skin. Led by dual vocalists Virginia Franks (bass) and Luke Hoffman (guitar), with Luke Vanchure on lead guitar and Carter Dennis on drums, the four-piece creates music that takes aim at how image, approval, and identity get tangled in the attention economy, where everyone’s chasing views but no one feels seen. The band are no strangers to touring, having previously performed across the country, and 2026 is shaping up to be yet another impressive live year. Next week, American Vanity will take the stage at 118 North in Wayne, PA, followed by shows in Indiana, Michigan, Massachusetts, and more.
