New York City alternative rock band King Falcon has released its long-awaited EP, BLOOM , out now with exclusive new vinyls and merch bundles. The band's signature blend of searing guitar riffs, introspective lyricism and fiery vocals continues to reach listen ers as the trio continues playing live shows across the country.

Next month, the band will kick off a fresh North American tour on October 1 in Philadelphia, with an EP release show at Bowery Palace on October 7.

On the EP's track 'Hungry Dog Run,' King Falcon airs out frustrations with power imbalances. The song, released with a matching music video , gives a voice to the overworked and underpaid. King Falcon frontman Michael Rubin says, ''Hungry Dog Run' is about what happens when frustration turns into momentum. It comes from the sense that a lot of ordinary people feel ignored, overworked, and backed into a corner while those in power remain untouched by the consequences. How long can we keep getting the worst end of the deal before something gives?'

Last month, the band showed their versatility with a stripped-back, acoustic version of fan favorite 'Holding Out (Acoustic).'

The new EP from King Falcon pushes the band's sound to new territory while maintaining their singular sonic identity and foundation over six eclectic tracks. With its anthemic choruses and searing guitar riffs, the band dives into a more refined, self-assured sound. Rubin shares, 'These songs have new sonic elements beyond what we've done in the past and we're really excited about that. This EP is the bridge between our first record and more music we're currently working on for 2027.'

Formed in 2020 in the local Brooklyn music scene, King Falcon consists of Michael Rubin (vocals, lead guitar), bassist Joe Conserva, and drummer Dipayan 'Dip' Chakraborty. Since before their 2023 self-titled debut album, the trio has cut their teeth in the live space across the country, playing over 150 shows in the last two years alone. With over 1.5M streams and 900K in 2025 alone, King Falcon have cemented themselves as a band to watch . The 2025 single 'Plastic Crown' rose to #1 on Amazon Music's Breakthrough Rock Playlist for multiple weeks and landed at #45 on MediaBase Radio in its first week. MXDWN named King Falcon 'Best New Artist,' and Guitar World praised the group as 'one of NYC's most exciting indie-rock bands.' The group has since shared stages with The Struts and Sublime with Rome.

After a North American tour with Des Rocs and several additional dates with Cinema Stereo, the trio expands their sonic world with new hooks, guitar riffs and electrifying live shows on the new EP, BLOOM .
