In the criteria for notability -

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(music)

"A musician or ensemble (note that this includes a band, singer, rapper, orchestra, DJ, musical theatre group, etc.) may be notable if it meets at least one of the following criteria: 1) Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself.[note 1]"

This criteria is true for Shava. Just a couple of examples -

i) an article in City magazine, a very well-known Finnish urban free paper - http://www.city.fi/artikkeli/Shava+Shava+Shake/3640/?nosm=1

ii) an article in Helsingin sanomat, Finland's biggest newspaper - http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=499144906489&set=a.473413286489.255316.190400411489&type=1&theater

iii) TV appearances in biggest Finnish TV channels - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsKiNBUCmYQ and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYQcHXjLZ0g
