I tried sorting through the cruft here, expecting him to be notable but it doesn't appear to be the case. Much of the claim to notability is greatly embellished and in digging for sources, I came up pretty much empty aside from some minor local coverage and republished interviews and mentions in small time student papers (of the "look at our alumni!" variety) He's played with a lot of notable people (according to him) but that alone does not confer notability, nor does placing as a "finalist" with 150 people in a questionably notable award.

• Delete the sources do not add up to passing GNG. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 17:37, 25 January 2021 (UTC) reply
• Delete - Fails WP:BASIC, WP:ANYBIO, and WP:MUSICBIO. No indication of awards or charted songs. I looked at every source cited in the article, and excluded bios from schools he attended and self-published sources. A few sources had some biographical info, such as [1] [2] [3]], but as interview articles, they are primary sources. The only secondary biographical source in the list was this in a local newspaper. I'm just not seeing significant coverage, and nothing to support notability per WP:MUSICBIO. Magnolia677 ( talk) 18:19, 25 January 2021 (UTC) reply
• Delete - Creator has also added this to date and year articles with multiple references, none of which support the date of birth. Several were duplicates - abridged versions of interviews/articles that had already been published on other websites. Deb ( talk) 15:55, 26 January 2021 (UTC) reply
