“Fai Laci covers a refreshing return to a much different moment in music history…

The Boston rockers’ debut album Elephant in the Room harkens back to the alt sounds of the early 2010s; Cage the Elephant comes immediately to mind, while these songs’ pop bounce often recalls the radio hits of Foster the People or Empire of the Sun.”

– FLOOD


“Part MC5, part Cage The Elephant, Fai Laci is bold, in your face, balls-to-the-wall good old-fashioned rock, which is exactly what we need right now.

Snotty attitude, solid riffs, and catchy lyrics make this a band to track.”

RIFF


Rising alternative Boston rockers Fai Laci have shared the official music video for “Headlights,” one of the many dynamic highlights of their upcoming new album, Elephant In The Room. Produced by Dan Auerbach at his Easy Eye Sound Studios in Nashville, Elephant in the Room arrives Friday, June 26 via Easy Eye Sound. Pre-orders/pre-saves are available now. In their post about the “Headlights,” FLOOD hailed, “Despite the grooving riffs and handclap punctuation, there’s a certain angst undergirding the track, one that band leader Luke Faillaci attributes to the era in which it was written more so than the era that inspired it.”


“‘Headlights’ was written to capture the feeling of kids our age right now,” says Fai Laci founder/lead singer Luke Faillaci. “All of this stuff is happening to us, and here I am, 25 years old, battling between where I want to end up and who I want to become. Especially with the ridiculous state the world is in right now, it feels urgent to make an impact for the better.”

Fai Laci are a band with a mission, and Elephant In The Room is the ideal vehicle to achieve it. The Boston-based quintet was founded by Luke Faillaci following the 2022 release of the first Fai Laci EP, Conversation, recorded in his college bedroom and highlighted by tracks such as “Five” and “Gypsy Lover,” both of which soon earned millions of streams worldwide thanks to their expressive vocals and urgent songcraft. With no real plan other than to make great music, Faillaci pulled together his closest and most dedicated musical friends – Michael Goldblatt, Zack Putnam, Cal Hamandi, and Anthony Cervone – and officially formed Fai Laci, releasing their second independent EP, Knock at My Door, in early 2024. A fervent grassroots following soon grew in the Northeast and beyond, resulting in increasingly larger live shows and total streams for both EPs now over 15M. Signing to Easy Eye Sound in 2025, Fai Laci built upon this momentum with a string of acclaimed singles, including “Elephant,” “Angels And The Others,” “Grains Of Sand” (featured on the cover of Spotify’s influential “New Noise” playlist), and the explosive “Have You Nothing Left To Say,” all joined by official music videos streaming now on YouTube.

Elephant In The Room now sees Fai Laci blending the urgency of punk and the stomp of glam with the theatricality of classic rock, all bound together by the band’s sharp swagger and Faillaci’s boundless charisma. The album showcases their inventive guitars and nimble rhythm section on such bangers as the decadent “Sarasota,” joined by an official music video which expertly encapsulates the unstoppable kinetic excitement of the band’s acclaimed live show. Confident and surprisingly diverse, with brazen rockers and bruised-heart ballads, Elephant In The Room instantly catapults Fai Laci to the forefront of alternative rock and beyond.

 

“We never set out to make a certain kind of sound,” says Faillaci. “It takes us wherever it takes us. We got more into the rock side of things on the album, but we also wanted to have some really beautiful songs on it. We wanted to have something for everybody.”
