Waterloo Revival

Fusing the traditionalism of vintage country with the larger and more propulsive noises of rock and roll and contemporary C&W, Waterloo Revival had been shaped by lead singer and guitarist George Birge and guitarist and support vocalist Cody Cooper, who’ve been friends since middle classes. Birge and Cooper had been born and elevated in Austin, Tx, so that as Cooper became thinking about songwriting when he was 15, his pal Birge implemented suit, and both began performing jointly being a duo. If they graduated from senior high school, university got Birge and Cooper in different directions, and once they finished their education, Birge proceeded to go into commercial property in Austin, while Cooper was employed in mortgage loans in Denton, Tx. However when Cooper came back to Austin to go to relatives and buddies, he and Birge would turn out jamming jointly, and in 2013 both friends decided it had been time to check out their true enthusiasm and make an effort to earn a living from music. Naming their take action Waterloo Revival (Waterloo was their hometown’s initial name, before it had been renamed honoring Stephen F. Austin in 1839), Birge and Cooper started producing a name for themselves around the city’s flourishing live music circuit, plus they financed and released a five-song EP. After breaking through in Austin, Waterloo Revival drawn up stakes and relocated to Nashville searching for a record offer. Music Town powerhouse Big Machine Information took a pastime in Waterloo Revival, as well as the label released the duo’s 1st single, “Strike the street,” in Dec 2014, with an album credited in 2015.
