On this episode of The Hook with Johni & Jess, we sit down with Richmond artist, designer, and musician Sarah Frances Santamaria, the frontwoman of the band VEXINE, joined by VEXINE guitarist Paul Pearce.
Sarah shares the story behind her creative journey — from award-winning visual artist to songwriter and performer — and how art, music, fashion, design, and even cooking all connect in her creative world. Together, we talk about the origins of VEXINE, songwriting vulnerability, the beauty of imperfection in art, and the inspiration behind the band’s newest album The Light and the Dark in Everything.
It’s a conversation about creativity, interpretation, and living a life where art shows up in everything you do.
