“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
After selling out several headlining shows on their current tour, rising alternative Boston rockers Fai Laci continue the advance towards their eagerly awaited debut album with today’s premiere of their latest single, “She Knows,” available now via Easy Eye Sound. An official music video for the song premieres today as well. Produced by Dan Auerbach at his Easy Eye Sound Studios in Nashville, Elephant In The Room arrives everywhere on Friday, June 26. Pre-orders/pre-saves are available now.
“When you realize you did something wrong and it’s too late to make a difference, that hurts,” says lead singer Luke Faillaci. “‘She knows’ is that space between knowing you messed up and realizing all there’s left to do is move on.”

Elephant In The Room also includes such acclaimed tracks as the dynamic “Headlights,” available now alongside an official music video streaming now on YouTube. “Despite the grooving riffs and handclap punctuation, there’s a certain angst undergirding the track,” declared FLOOD in its exclusive premiere, “one that band leader Luke Faillaci attributes to the era in which it was written more so than the era that inspired it.”

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.”
