Which ‘Building the Band’ Bands Are Still Together? Updates on All the Groups
Building the Band offered aspiring artists a unique chance to put their singing careers in their own hands. A group of 50 singers blindly auditioned for one another, with the ultimate goal of former a band with two, three, or four of the other contestants.
By the end of the auditions, only 22 singers made it into the final six groups. They then began living together and performing for live audiences, who got to vote for their favorites. Ultimately, judges Nicole Scherzinger, Liam Payne, and Kelly Rowland had the final say in who went home each week.
The show ended with girl group 3QUENCY being declared the winners of the $500,000 prize. However, all of the bands still had the option of continuing to work together if they wanted.
It’s been a year since the show filmed in summer 2024, so where do all the bands stand now? Scroll down for the latest updates.
Building the Band, Season 1, All episodes streaming, Netflix
Siren Society — Still Together
Siren Society (Autumn, Erica, Jenna D., and Noriella) may have finished in sixth place, but they’re still committed to making their group work. Despite living in different parts of the country, the ladies are putting in the work to make music together.
“We FaceTime every day and have traveled to Los Angeles to be together,” they told Tudum. “It’s not always easy, but we’re so committed to this and to each other. Our bond goes beyond music, and it’s something really special.”
They’re also currently working on “writing our own music and discovering a sound that really feels like us.”
Sweet Seduction — Broken Up
Sweet Seduction (Alison, Haley, and Elise) had more tension than any of the other groups on the show, and they weren’t able to continue as a cohesive unit afterwards.
“We never talked about staying in a band,” Haley explained. “We all had different paths so we moved forward individually.”
However, despite their issues, Haley said she wishes her former bandmates “the best.” Alison added, “I have so much respect for them both. They’re both wildly talented women and very, very hard working.”
The women also confirmed that they keep in touch via a group chat, and Alison isn’t ruling out a reunion.
“I would be interested in performing with them,” she confirmed. “We could work together, we could not. Who knows?” Alison and Haley are continuing to pursue solo careers, while Elise is working toward a degree in music.
Midnight "Til Morning — Still Together
After finishing in fourth place, Midnight “Til Morning (Mason, Zach, Conor, and Shane) are more committed to being a band than ever before. The guys admittedly came on the show as a launchpad for their solo careers, but are now a “band that wants to stick together and make music for the long run,” Shane confirmed.
The guys all met up in Australia, where Conor and Mason are from, just two weeks after filming ended, and already have music in the works.
“Since the show finished, we’ve probably spent three months solid in the studio just day in, day out. We’ve got a whole album ready to go,” Mason teased.
Iconyx — Sort Of Together
The guys from Iconyx (Bradley, Shade, Landon, and Malik) are pursuing their individual careers, but have hopes to work together as a band again.
The number one factor that’s kept them apart? “Literally just location,” Bradley said. “On the show, we are in an apartment [and] everything’s taken care of. But when you’re just taking the chance on your own … it’s a lot more serious.”
Now that the show is out, the guys will be looking to viewers to determine what paths they take next. “We want the fans to decide,” Landon added. “We’re going to be reading up on what people want. If people are like, ‘We need an album,’ then we’re going to give it to them.”
SZN4 — Still Together
Runners-up SZN4 (Donzell, Aaliyah, Cameron, and Katie) are still figuring things out, but they’re committed to making their band work across state lines.
“We definitely have to plan because obviously things cost money and we have our own lives in places that we live,” Katie explained. “We’ve done a really good job of balancing our regular lives and making sure we’re still getting together.”
Cameron confirmed that the group is “creating” music, but things are still in the early stages.
3QUENCY — Still Together
As the winners of the show, 3QUENCY (Brianna, Nori, and Wennely) had some help kicking off their careers because of the $500,000 prize they won.
The ladies said they intend to use their prize money to help their families and invest in themselves.
Wennely confirmed that the girls are “ride or die” and that they plan to constantly be “reinventing” themselves moving forward.

Why not give them a record contract? All that work and they have to split up due to location issues. Let's face it, $500k after taxes split three ways isnt enough for much in the ways recording costs these days. Give them a year contract and chance to make it work!!!
-
P
I agree. If they don't give the group a contract to make go of being a band what is the point of the show? Just giving them money is not enough! I would like to see music made by both of the final groups. I'm still surprised to hear that no one has gotten a contract yet!
-
P
Midnight ‘til Morning have been signed by Chugg Music in Australia.
-
-
O
These shows are basically a mass audition. I am sure producers watch these shows as closely as fans do. Basically does half their job for them.
-
-
B
SZN4 and Midnight til Morning were my favorite bands. I feel like SZN4 got robbed at the end
-
O
I agree 💯 I'm kinda upset about that!
-
C
They definitely got robbed how you give them the best performance every time except once and you lose it’s smells of a conspiracy
-
P
SZN4 were the best but they went with the girls cause the industry wants more commercial appear tha raw talent. The show could be great if they dont rush things
-
R
Yes, they got robbed. They are absolutely amazing! And they have very more plays on spotify, so the people agree!
-
O
They were definitely robbed of being the best band... 3quency won for the most improvement over time, but pure vocals and cohesiveness as a group is definitely SZN4. Their arrangements were pure musical genius! They each understand and utilize their vocal abilities perfectly.
-
R
SZN4 had the best vocal performances and connection to the audience. They were my favorite and I love everything about them. That being said, it's not a singing competition--it's an entertainment industry competition. SZN4 has great chemistry, a relatable story, and positive vibes. 3Quency may not resonate as much with everyone, but they also have those qualities AND can dance AND can market themselves--they're much more of a complete package for the entertainment industry. You might be able to get them to make the audience cry like SZN4, but you're not getting SZN4 to make the audience gasp like at the end of "Have Mercy". And that's why they won.

Sweet Seduction broke up? gasp! Color me shocked! 🤣 I couldn't stand Allison from the start. The ego and need to control it all was a surefire way to fail.
-
B
Allison was in it for herself. She was bossy. I feel bad for the other girls she sent home. I’m glad she was sent home.
-
-
G
SZN 4 was robbed. I hope them and Iconyx make a album.
-
O
Factzzz💯💯💯
-
O
For a band to work in the industry it takes more than amazingly singing. Have you read the updates on where these bands are one year later? The band everyone wanted to win are not sure of what they want to do, and "some sort of together" It is better to reward those that might go on for many years to come than a group that wows us now but fall apart right away.
-
-
-
R
I believe the final 3 bands should continue making music. Would love to see records from each of them! Absolutely amazing!!
-
B
SNZ4 definitely got Robbed at the end by far my favorite band of all time. But all the finals band needs to put out music I’m waiting lol
-
B
Alison made their band look bad…
-
P
Oh my gosh right! She was simply awful. The way she cried after her band mates brought up her ‘uncalled for and horrible behaviour’
I thought. ‘What the heck. Are you kidding, now she’s the victim.’
She was absolutely self obsessed, selfish and controlling.
What an awful representation of that band. The other two were lovely and amazing.
I mean Allison also had a superb voice, but it certainly didn’t match her personality.
-
-
G
I really liked Midnight till Morning too….both boy bands were my best choices.
-
M
I am dissapointed that a group like 3Quincy won. There are so many bands out there like them already. Not to take anything away from their talent,.. They are really talented! SZN4 in my opinion just brings more to the table with their amazing voices. The only band that is like them, (sort of), is the acapella group Pentatonix. Speaking of which I think it would have been amazing to hear SZN4 do a song in acapella. That very well could have been the song that would have won them the contest.
-
G
Iconyx was a really good bad. They need to make music together. I thought they were one of the best groups on the show.
-
O
Great show! Put the decision of who should be a member of the band in the hands of the artists. Entirely in their hands. Not by someone how considers the talent as secondary to other things. And.. it worked! Iconyx was my favorite. 3QUENCY and SZN4 were great too! I'd like to purchase their music soon.
-
R
Show was good.. I felt like it felt incredibly rushed towards the end. 3quency did have some great performances on the final night....but I still felt SZN4 was the best and honestly I didnt think they were gonna work when the one dude almost joined the boy band after committing to Aliyah...
-
-
C
SZN4
Should of been the group that won it , not 3QUENCY!!
Because In that group only two people are worth listening to honestly..
-
G
I liked your comment and agree about "only two worth listening to" now I'm curious if we're thinking of the same two 😂. It's all opinion and people like what they like but I feel SZN4 was robbed.
-
P
Agree 100% on both accounts. (I’m bad with names) I liked the girl with Curley hair and the girl who sang for the trolls movie. Honestly 3Quency had some good performances, but I was just never feeling them. Except Bad Guy, that was exceptional.
SZN4 should have won! I’m so shocked? I haven’t watched the last episode, I just expected to see they’d won, I also really liked Midnight till Morning. Those were my top 2 🙂
-
-
-
G
SZN4 was robbed. They stayed consistently good every performance. Dont split up band! You look great together and sound even better!!
-
O
Szn4 was my fav and 3quency : Alison was a bitch
-
P
Whoop! 🙌 Someone had to say it. Honestly who would want to work with her (Allison) after seeing that show of ‘nasty nasty’ 🐱 catty behaviour. SZN4 was the winner of my heart for sure! ♥️
-
-
C
SZN4 was the clear unique band with true talent. I was so disappointed that the judges chose a 3 piece very ordinary girl band whose dance moves outweighed their talent. So predictable. The world needed a band like SZN4, yet they lost to a far inferior band. A really bad decision on the part of the judges.
-
B
I’m not sure why they had the blind auditions at the start to pick the bandmates. They went with a cookie cutter threesome of girls you can find anywhere trying to be on top. SZN4 was unique and was what the whole show was about. Just getting together from their voices not based on looks or gender they just worked.
-
G
I meant that Iconyx was a really good band!! Was spelled wrong.
-
G
YES, it ruined the show for me... we've seen so many girl groups like 3quency.... but it would have been amazing to support such a new diverse group who brought emotion and power to each song... something none of the bands did continuously.... choreography - who cares... it's the power of the songs and what they represent that would have been beautiful to see supported and helped to go out to the world to create positive impact. So sad and disappointed in the judges decision. They went commercial. Too much at stake to not have an easily sellable act to promote. The girls were great - just believe SZN4 had something way more special and important to bring to the world.
-
P
Sweet Seduction broke up? Who would’ve guessed 🙄. All of them wanted to be the lead and putting that together just wasn’t a good idea. Elise didn’t even really want to be part of the group at first anyways. SZN4 also got so robbed at the end. 3Quency did put on two amazing performances the last night, but SZN4 was the best consistently and the only reason 3Quency won was because they were “the most improved.” SZN4 just didn’t need as much improvement because they were the best from the start.
-
P
Yes! I like both groups but I was literally surprised when 3Quency won over SZN4.
-
R
I think the bottom two were the better, but I think SZN4 should have won it. Also, I think a “Contract” would have been a better option than money. The money they won and had to share, they have to use to start their singing career. So what are they to do when the money run out!? Go on another show? I just think a contract would have been a better option.
-
R
First time watching it I thought SZN4 all the way! They were unconventional from the start when they were building but had the best chemistry, the MOST Vulnerable and they could pick any song and make it great! In my opinion you love people every performance you’ve got something.
3quency had the entire package even though one of the girls voices is annoying to me. But that had the best performance song before last not vocally but overall. I see why they won watching it a second time!
However, I truly feel that if SZN4 sticks around they can really touch more people.
I think the reason the show was created is to break boundaries that the industry has of groups, being boy bands or girl groups. SZN4 was neither! They were all powerhouse singers who meshed well and some groups take a long time to do what they did. You have Cameron who was androgynous groups like this just don’t fit the mold and I feel they failed in proving the experiment should reward the unexpected.
-
G
What a great Netflix Series. Thoroughly enjoyed all these outstanding singers coming together with different relationship experiences. Was so thrilled at the final that the judges were true and honest to the best performances in awarding the winners. Spot on! But where are the record deals, what a waste of talent if their artistry and our enjoyment cannot materialize.
-
O
SZN4 was the best group they did not have the look. Unfair the show should be ashamed. I hope it didn’t mess up their morale..
-
P
I was really surprised at how good the show was...I thought Alison would be a shoe in for wins because narcissistic behavior often invites viewership. So, I was impressed the show really did seem to reward talent, hard work and growth. Toss up between 3Quency and SZN4 for talent but no doubt in my mind that 3Quency demonstrated amazing diversity in their performances.
-
G
I would buy ICONYX & SZN4 music. Hope they record and tour soon.
-
G
SZN4 from building the band should, perform at, GSR Casino in Reno Nevada. Cameron has the Octive to do, some, Michael Jackson songs, and the group, SZN4, some of the Jackson 5 songs
-
G
I am a fan of this format! There hasn't been a good "talent show" format in years, just rehashes of old concepts or someone from the music industry forcing people together because they think they look good together. This blind band match system where they have to match themselves is really is a great way to see some new fresh talent and I love it.
-
B
Alison played the "mean girl" role to a T. I bet we'll be seeing more of her on reality TV! (Ugh)
-
P
I think 3Quency were the best so they deserved to win . I loved SZN4 too and I’m sure they will go far . Iconyx- lovely guys and great voices but a bit lame
-
C
I just read they did sign a contract with Columbia Records.
-
O
A true narcissist.
-
B
SZN4 and Midnight `til Morning were my favourite bands - different, authentic and "rich" in sound. I hope they get a record contract.
-
P
I would like to see iconyx and 3quency make music together they were my favorite groups
-
P
SZN4 won hands down! So disappointed in Kelly and the show!
-
M
SZN4 were absolutely phenominal! 3Quincy were very good as well. I agree with Nichole when she said that the band grew the most. That is only because SZN4 didn't need to grow. They just had to find their niche. I also think that if you had producers and lable executives as opposed to pop stars you would have had a different outcome.
-
-
O
I am so glad that SZN4 are still together. I hope that they will use their uniqueness, talents, and cohesiveness to bring something that the music industry is missing. Out of all the group I felt that their sound was gritty, sincere, and drew me into the emotion they were feeling. They were the most cohesive and their voices truly compliment one another. I am hoping that they will release a project.
3quency really grew during their journey and I am glad that they are still together. While I found the group truly entertaining, I would like them to stand out more from other girl groups.
I like Midnight to Morning but due to stiff competition and some rough spots they could not get true cohesiveness. However, if they were to continue I believe they would be a force in the music industry.
Iconyx was a great group and I would like to see more of them in the future. I believe that they would still need to evolve as a group so they would not be considered a run-of-the-mill boy band.
Not surprised that Sweet Seduction broke up. While all of the girls in this group are extremely talented, it appeared that all of the were lead vocals and could not grasp team synergy.
I loved the gorgeous vocals from Siren Society. They were another group that needed to work on team dynamics and truly finding their unique blend during the competition. I am glad that they are still together and they are able to capture a sound that makes the stand out from other girl groups.
-
A
I loved the show but they did them wrong. There should've been 3 prizes for so the runner ups could produce albums too. So they didn't think it would make they look cheap. The start something good and they kicked them out without a penny.
-
S
SZN4 is the best they were robbed.they should have kept the audience as the one picking the winner. Kelly was bias.
-
J
Also, I couldn't stand the blonde they kept the camera on, was her name Elise. She was so stuck up, thought she was so great and didn't really like anyone else. I guess the cameraman really liked her because the camera was always on her. She was just too much. Thought she was so much better than everyone else, she wasn't.
-
J
Allison I mean.
-
-
J
I think Connor ruin their group. During auditions, he was all in, band 100%, then as soon as he saw the girls, it was all over and his "other brain" kicked in and he just let the other three guys down, bad. They should have let Connor go. He was all over the stage and he wasn't a good singer. I really felt bad for the other three guys who wanted it so bad and Connor sure let them all down. I am really surprised they are still together.
-
L
3quency was my pick the final night. They brought it all to the stage each time - vocals, spunk, wardrobe, choreography, unity - they matched on all levels while still expressing their own personalities and talents. I hope they work hard and produce some great music.
-
B
My favorite bands were Iconyx and Midnight Til Morning. However, I do feel that 3Quency grew the most during the show and really killed it on the last performance. They deserved the win in my opinion.
-
B
I am really please that all 4 of my fave bands (3Quency , SZN4, Midnight till Morning, Iconyx)😀 I'm kinda mad at Alison though. If she hadn't been as annoying maybe they could of stayed together as their voices were incredible😔
-
P
I hope SZN4 goes on Kickstarter or Patreon to get funding to make an EP. I would happily invest in the band's future music! If 2,000 fans donated just 10.00 each, SZN4 would have enough funds to travel to the same location, cover studio recording, mixing/production costs, and online marketing.
-
O
Iconyx is back to soulidified on Instagram. They have a song out
-
C
I’m so glad my two favorite brands are still together solidified and midnight until morning
-
G
Looking forward to listening to the three finalists’ songs. They all deserve to be signed to major record labels…
-
P
The entire show was so obviously staged. I enjoyed the bands and watching them entertain, but they blew through all the episodes too fast to make them as good as they were.
-
C
3quency put on an incredible & entertaining performance. All 3 girls seem to be so sweet and talented. SZN4 are amazing singers too but they don't put on a true show. Concerts are where artists make most of their money & standing there swaying just isn't entertaining. 3quency has great style and I can't wait to hear their music. In my opinion they're the clear winners. SZN4 and 3quency will both be successful if they fight for it. I'm glad that the final 2 bands were both kind, good people that supported each other.
-
P
Iconic- get together and make some music! Ya’ll are amazing
-
P
I’m glad to hear that my top 2 bands are still together (SZN4 and Midnight till morning), I can’t wait to hear their EP’s when they come out.
I’m pretty shocked that 3Quency won, I’m about to watch the last episode and just assumed SZN4 had it in the bag, I mean they were the most consistent, original and talented (in my opinion.) I guess I’ll just have to prepare myself to watch it. 🙁
-
B
3quency were the best. They had the triple threat factor. Presence, vocals, and choreography. In the finale, they showed up.
-
C
I would have to agree, SNZ4 were totally robbed.
-
O
I'm shocked SZN4 didn't win either
-
-
B
ICONYX Are Together And They Are Now SOULIDIFIED
-
P
Loved all the talent. All five groups were loaded with it. Unfortunately I couldn’t get past the fact that so much of it sounded scripted. It overshadowed everything. I rewatched it and fast forwarded past all the talk. So good.
-
J
SZN4 should have won. The girls were good, but SZN4 brought the judges to tears and they still didn't get voted for? WTH? Next time let the people vote... I guarantee you would have gotten a totally different end result. Shameful !!!
-
J
I think they should off had the chance to at least be given the chance to take advice on moving forwards from very well known promoters / influencers as part off there winnings /wining the show least then ur giving them a better chance off moving forwards properly as that what any newly formed band needs
-
A
I am Alison Dengate why are you using my name on this TV show? I am calling the FBI in the morning
-
K
Yes and Elise had more talent than anyone on the show IMHO
-
C
SZN4 felt the same every time they sang. I think they are a good group and talented but Donzell seem too dramatic when he sung like he was putting too much emotion into every word and sometimes thats not needed every time. they were good though
-
P
I think SZN4 was the front-runner for the first two show but 3quency come on like a freight train and the choreography they fed into their performances was "out of my chair" fantastic. the only name that I didn't care for although they all had fabulous voices was sweet seduction only because Blondie made it all about her and she wasn't any better if even as good as the girls who got stuck with her. Alyson I hope you have allot of backing. who would want to be stuck under your direction and thumb. 3quency 🎈❣️
-
C
In the band 3quecy, nori couldn’t sing well, she skated by on the other 2 girls. She tried too hard to scream vocals that didn’t work. I don’t feel they were winners. SZN4 were the real winners “Period”
-
O
Disappointed that 3Quency won. Didn't watch the full season, happy SZN4 is still together, love their music. Tired of girl bands..I'm too old lol
-
O
I'm happy with the winners but I feel like the prize just being money won't really make them into a professional band. They need an agency to sign them, a recording studio, professional help. Not something that money split 3 ways can really get you, especially if they're not committed to using all of it to cover these expenses (helping their famillies etc, thats great! but that's not gonna help the band become a real thing lol)
-
P
I want to see a new season where they all come back and make new bands with eachother.
-
R
The final four definitely showed incredible potential to succeed, but as bands. While they are individually talented, it is far more difficult to strike out on a solo career... talent is not enough. As a band, each has a better chance to appeal to the public in concerts and in recordings. They all need to approach producers & music companies that support and develop talented musicians in order to have some financial and development backing.

O
3quency and sweet suduction are my favourite
