History

Cody Cooper and George Birge, natives of Austin, Texas, had been friends since middle school when they began performing music together. After high school, Birge worked in real estate and Cooper worked in mortgaging. The two reunited in 2013 and began writing songs and performing together. They took the name Waterloo Revival from the original name of the city of Austin.[1][2]

The duo released a five-song extended play, and then signed to Big Machine Records,[1] which released two singles: "Hit the Road" and "Bad for You".[3]

In June 2016 Waterloo Revival signed to Toby Keith's record label Show Dog-Universal Music.
