King Falcon

King Falcon are an explosive alternative rock trio from New York City, blending vintage guitar grit with modern 21st-century alt-rock attitude. Outfitted with lived-in, loud, and undeniably analog gear, the band channels the raw emotion of classic rock legends while delivering a fresh, contemporary edge. Frontman Michael Rubin (vocals, lead guitar), bassist Joe Conserva, and drummer Dipayan “Dip” Chakraborty craft high-octane anthems built for both the stage and the streaming age. Their sound sits at the intersection of The Strokes, Arctic Monkeys, and Foo Fighters- authentic, guitar-driven, and packed with energy.

Born and raised in Queens, New York, Michael spent his formative years immersed in music, studying at School of Rock while obsessing over Steely Dan, Led Zeppelin, and Tame Impala’s Currents. After launching his first project, The Inoculated Canaries, and earning local radio and touring success, he evolved into the voice and vision behind King Falcon, founded in 2020.
The self-titled debut album King Falcon (2023) broke out with millions of streams on Spotify, fueled by fan favorites “Ready Set Go,” “Cadillac,” and “Everybody’s Down.”

In 2025, King Falcon’s explosive single “Plastic Crown” became a breakout hit, soaring to #1 on Amazon Music’s Breakthrough Rock Playlist for multiple weeks and landing at #45 on MediaBase Radio in its first week. Critics and fans alike have taken notice: MXDWN named King Falcon “Best New Artist,” and Guitar World praised them as “one of NYC’s most exciting indie-rock bands.” The group has since shared stages with The Struts, Saving Abel, Des Rocs, Sublime with Rome, and other national acts, earning a reputation for their electric live shows and undeniable New York swagger.

As they roll into 2026 and beyond, King Falcon are sharpening their signature alt-rock sound with a new slate of singles and a second full-length album, delivering the same unapologetic spirit that defines their name.
