THE LITTLE BAND THAT ROCKED: TWEEN BAND RELEASES DEBUT SINGLE
In fall 2025, five Birmingham student musicians joined Mason Music’s Rock Band League for the first time: Falynn, Maggie, Finn, Grey, and Trey. Together they formed Iron City Revival, a rock band that now has released its first single, “Iron City Revival (Come Together),” across several streaming platforms. “I like to think of them as the little band that could,” shares Park Butterworth, Mason Music’s Operations Manager. “Not because they were underdogs, but because we almost weren’t able to form the band!” Many of the students were waiting on the waitlist for the right combination of age, skill level, and instrument—but two last-minute additions made it just in time! “They were naturals right from the get go. You could tell during their very first performance that they meant business,” Butterworth recalls. “They had coordinated outfits, color schemes, and picked a song that highlighted their strengths.”The band, composed of kids ages ranging from 10 to 14, got their big break with an epic win at the Battle of the Bands Openers division at WorkPlay. “When it was time for the Battle of the Bands, they strolled into Workplay sporting their very own band merch, confident in their soon-to-be winning performance,” Butterworth adds. After receiving a standing ovation to their version of the Beatles’ song “Iron City Revival (Come Together),” the winning band had the opportunity to record their winning song at Mason Music’s Recording Studio.
