Hot Goth GF Radio began as a Bay Area-based online radio show featuring femme and queer artists in punk, goth, electronic, and all dark genres, with a focus on artists of color. Christina Villanueva, the creator, began booking shows the same year, starting with a sold-out show with NYC legends ESG at Great American Music Hall in December 2021. She has since booked local and internationally-touring femme and queer artists in major venues across San Francisco and Oakland under the name Hot Goth GF Presents. Christina DJs, curates and hosts the radio show, and books and promotes the live shows, all with the goal of platforming femme and queer artists and creating space to celebrate the queer, brown, goth community of the bay area.

Photographer Deja Whitney joined the team in 2023, contributing their exceptional event photography & portraiture that uplifts, affirms, and celebrates the incredible artists & diverse community of goth hotties that perform and attend the events.

Christina Villanueva is an Oakland-based, NJ & NYC raised, queer mixed Latina with a passion for live music and empowering bad bitches to thrive in their power.
