Article about a band, not reliably sourced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The notability claims here are that they won a minor award for independent music that doesn't pass NMUSIC #8 (which requires major awards on the order of Grammys or Junos, not just any music award that exists), and that they've been played and profiled on internet and college radio (but NMUSIC specifically requires national radio networks like CBC Music, and deprecates internet and college radio as not carrying of musical notability at all.) The content, further, is largely not referenced to reliable or notability-making media coverage, but to blogs and primary sources and YouTube videos and the internet/college radio streams -- the closest thing to a strong source here is three different citations to one obscure music magazine which would be fine if the other sources around it were better, but isn't widely circulated enough to singlehandedly get a topic over GNG all by itself if it's the only acceptable source on offer. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt them from having to have more and better media coverage than this. Bearcat ( talk) 15:41, 27 August 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. They've presumably garnered a bit of interest in order to have been given the radio coverage mentioned in the article, but not enough to pass WP:NMUSICIAN. The fact that their music is self-released after four years (whether by choice or because of a lack of interest from commercial labels) is problematic. ~dom Kaos~ ( talk) 16:01, 27 August 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - Couldn't find anything besides databases, concert sites and press releases. Most of the sites repeat the same biography. Not notable. GhostDestroyer100 ( talk) 17:47, 2 September 2020 (UTC) reply
