Faulkner is a notable emerging band based in Los Angeles, California, United States, formed in 2008. Consisting of Lucas Asher (Vocals, Rhythm Guitar), Brennan Mcquire (Lead guitar, vocals), Donald Grey (Drums, Percussion,) and Alex Oparin (Bass). The band first appeared on radar after being picked up by Clear Channel KISS 102.7fm "Community Council," and popular Orange County / Los Angeles rock station Star 98.7fm

Faulkner quickly found a steady following due to it's working class roots, poetry and dynamic performances.

Members of the group left their decadent homes and traveled independently from London, Moscow, and New York to dive into the burgeoning Los Angeles Music scene. Brennan, Donald, and Alex, refined their skills at Berklee College of Music in Boston and Musicians Institute in Hollywood. Lucas was mentored by the stalwart and eccentric producer Bob Ezrin, who is acknowledged for his cross genre work and induction into the Canadian Music Hall Of Fame.

After parting ways with mentors, mothers, and money. The boys launched the Unite for workers rights music video series and supporting tour. Meeting with critical and commercial regional success, the band founded Empyreal Studios to assist other artists and give back to the community.

They are currently recording a followup album, and performing in major cities.
